In the administration 15 of, and compliance with, this Section, the Department and 16 persons who are subject to this Section shall have the same 17 rights, remedies, privileges, immunities, powers and duties, 18 and be subject to the same conditions, restrictions, 19 limitations, penalties and definitions of terms, and employ 20 the same modes of procedure, as are prescribed in Sections 1, 21 1a, 1a-1, 1d, 1e, 1f, 1i, 1j, 2 through 2-65 (in respect to 22 all provisions therein other than the State rate of tax), 4, 23 5, 5a, 5b, 5c, 5d, 5e, 5f, 5g, 5h, 5i, 5j, 5k, 5l, 6, 6a, 6b, 24 6c, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13 of the Retailers' Occupation 25 Tax Act and Section 3-7 of the Uniform Penalty and Interest 26 Act, as fully as if those provisions were set forth herein. 27 No tax may be imposed by a home rule county pursuant to 28 this Section unless the county also imposes a tax at the same 29 rate pursuant to Section 5-1007. 30 Persons subject to any tax imposed pursuant to the 31 authority granted in this Section may reimburse themselves 32 for their seller's tax liability hereunder by separately 33 stating such tax as an additional charge, which charge may be 34 stated in combination, in a single amount, with State tax SB374 Enrolled -17- LRB9002207DNmbB 1 which sellers are required to collect under the Use Tax Act, 2 pursuant to such bracket schedules as the Department may 3 prescribe. 4 Whenever the Department determines that a refund should 5 be made under this Section to a claimant instead of issuing a 6 credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State 7 Comptroller, who shall cause the order to be drawn for the 8 amount specified and to the person named in the notification 9 from the Department. The refund shall be paid by the State 10 Treasurer out of the home rule county retailers' occupation 11 tax fund. 12 The Department shall forthwith pay over to the State 13 Treasurer, ex officio, as trustee, all taxes and penalties 14 collected hereunder.

The allocation shall be in an amount equal to 8 the average monthly distribution made to each such county 9 under the preceding paragraph during the preceding calendar 10 year (excluding the 2 months of highest receipts). The 11 distribution made in March of each year subsequent to the 12 year in which an allocation was made pursuant to this 13 paragraph and the preceding paragraph shall be reduced by the 14 amount allocated and disbursed under this paragraph in the 15 preceding calendar year. The Department shall prepare and 16 certify to the Comptroller for disbursement the allocations 17 made in accordance with this paragraph. 18 For the purpose of determining the local governmental 19 unit whose tax is applicable, a retail sale by a producer of 20 coal or other mineral mined in Illinois is a sale at retail 21 at the place where the coal or other mineral mined in 22 Illinois is extracted from the earth. This paragraph does 23 not apply to coal or other mineral when it is delivered or 24 shipped by the seller to the purchaser at a point outside 25 Illinois so that the sale is exempt under the United States 26 Constitution as a sale in interstate or foreign commerce. For 27 purposes of determining the local governmental unit whose tax 28 is applicable under Section 2-5(32) of the Retailers' 29 Occupation Tax Act, a retail sale by a lessor is a sale at 30 retail at the place where leased tangible personal property 31 is located. 32 Nothing in this Section shall be construed to authorize a 33 county to impose a tax upon the privilege of engaging in any 34 business which under the Constitution of the United States SB374 Enrolled -19- LRB9002207DNmbB 1 may not be made the subject of taxation by this State. 2 An ordinance or resolution imposing or discontinuing a 3 tax hereunder or effecting a change in the rate thereof shall 4 be adopted and a certified copy thereof filed with the 5 Department on or before the first day of June, whereupon the 6 Department shall proceed to administer and enforce this 7 Section as of the first day of September next following such 8 adoption and filing.

Beginning 15 January 1, 1993, an ordinance or resolution imposing or 16 discontinuing the tax hereunder or effecting a change in the 17 rate thereof shall be adopted and a certified copy thereof 18 filed with the Department on or before the first day of 19 October, whereupon the Department shall proceed to administer 20 and enforce this Section as of the first day of January next 21 following such adoption and filing. 22 When certifying the amount of a monthly disbursement to a 23 county under this Section, the Department shall increase or 24 decrease such amount by an amount necessary to offset any 25 misallocation of previous disbursements. The offset amount 26 shall be the amount erroneously disbursed within the previous 27 6 months from the time a misallocation is discovered. 28 This Section shall be known and may be cited as the "Home 29 Rule County Retailers' Occupation Tax Law". 30 (Source: P.A. 86-962; 86-1028; 86-1475; 87-205; 87-895.) 31 (55 ILCS 5/5-1006.5) 32 Sec. 5-1006.5. Special County Retailers' Occupation Tax 33 For Public Safety. SB374 Enrolled -20- LRB9002207DNmbB 1 (a) The county board of any county with a population in 2 excess of 180,000 inhabitants, as determined by the most 3 recent decennial census, may impose a tax upon all persons 4 engaged in the business of selling tangible personal 5 property, other than personal property titled or registered 6 with an agency of this State's government, at retail in the 7 county on the gross receipts from the sales made in the 8 course of business to provide revenue to be used exclusively 9 for public safety purposes in that county, if a proposition 10 for the tax has been submitted to the electors of that county 11 and approved by a majority of those voting on the question. 12 If imposed, this tax shall be imposed only in one-quarter 13 percent increments. By resolution, the county board may order 14 the proposition to be submitted at any election. The county 15 clerk shall certify the question to the proper election 16 authority, who shall submit the proposition at an election in 17 accordance with the general election law. 18 The proposition shall be in substantially the following 19 form: 20 "Shall (name of county) be authorized to impose a 21 public safety tax at the rate of .... upon all persons 22 engaged in the business of selling tangible personal 23 property at retail in the county on gross receipts from 24 the sales made in the course of their business to be used 25 for crime prevention, detention, and other public safety 26 purposes?" 27 Votes shall be recorded as Yes or No. If a majority of the 28 electors voting on the proposition vote in favor of it, the 29 county may impose the tax. 30 This additional tax may not be imposed on the sales of 31 food for human consumption that is to be consumed off the 32 premises where it is sold (other than alcoholic beverages, 33 soft drinks, and food which has been prepared for immediate 34 consumption) and prescription and non-prescription medicines, SB374 Enrolled -21- LRB9002207DNmbB 1 drugs, medical appliances and insulin, urine testing 2 materials, syringes, and needles used by diabetics.

The certificate of registration that is issued by 7 the Department to a retailer under the Retailers' Occupation 8 Tax Act shall permit the retailer to engage in a business 9 that is taxable without registering separately with the 10 Department under an ordinance or resolution under this 11 Section. The Department has full power to administer and 12 enforce this Section, to collect all taxes and penalties due 13 under this Section, to dispose of taxes and penalties so 14 collected in the manner provided in this Section, and to 15 determine all rights to credit memoranda arising on account 16 of the erroneous payment of a tax or penalty under this 17 Section. In the administration of and compliance with this 18 Section, the Department and persons who are subject to this 19 Section shall (i) have the same rights, remedies, privileges, 20 immunities, powers, and duties, (ii) be subject to the same 21 conditions, restrictions, limitations, penalties, and 22 definitions of terms, and (iii) employ the same modes of 23 procedure as are prescribed in Sections 1, 1a, 1a-1, 1d, 1e, 24 1f, 1i, 1j, 2, 2-10 (in respect to all provisions contained 25 in those Sections other than the State rate of tax), 2-40, 26 2a, 2b, 2c, 3 (except provisions relating to transaction 27 returns and quarter monthly payments), 4, 5, 5a, 5b, 5c, 5d, 28 5e, 5f, 5g, 5h, 5i, 5j, 5k, 5l, 6, 6a, 6b, 6c, 7, 8, 9, 10, 29 11, 11a, 12, and 13 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act and 30 Section 3-7 of the Uniform Penalty and Interest Act as if 31 those provisions were set forth in this Section. 32 Persons subject to any tax imposed under the authority 33 granted in this Section may reimburse themselves for their 34 sellers' tax liability by separately stating the tax as an SB374 Enrolled -22- LRB9002207DNmbB 1 additional charge, which charge may be stated in combination, 2 in a single amount, with State tax which sellers are required 3 to collect under the Use Tax Act, pursuant to such bracketed 4 schedules as the Department may prescribe. 5 Whenever the Department determines that a refund should 6 be made under this Section to a claimant instead of issuing a 7 credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State 8 Comptroller, who shall cause the order to be drawn for the 9 amount specified and to the person named in the notification 10 from the Department. The refund shall be paid by the State 11 Treasurer out of the County Public Safety Retailers' 12 Occupation Tax Fund. 13 (b) If a tax has been imposed under subsection (a), a 14 service occupation tax shall also be imposed at the same rate 15 upon all persons engaged, in the county, in the business of 16 making sales of service, who, as an incident to making those 17 sales of service, transfer tangible personal property within 18 the county as an incident to a sale of service. This tax may 19 not be imposed on sales of food for human consumption that is 20 to be consumed off the premises where it is sold (other than 21 alcoholic beverages, soft drinks, and food prepared for 22 immediate consumption) and prescription and non-prescription 23 medicines, drugs, medical appliances and insulin, urine 24 testing materials, syringes, and needles used by diabetics. 25 The tax imposed under this subsection and all civil penalties 26 that may be assessed as an incident thereof shall be 27 collected and enforced by the Department of Revenue. The 28 Department has full power to administer and enforce this 29 subsection; to collect all taxes and penalties due hereunder; 30 to dispose of taxes and penalties so collected in the manner 31 hereinafter provided; and to determine all rights to credit 32 memoranda arising on account of the erroneous payment of tax 33 or penalty hereunder. In the administration of, and 34 compliance with this subsection, the Department and persons SB374 Enrolled -23- LRB9002207DNmbB 1 who are subject to this paragraph shall (i) have the same 2 rights, remedies, privileges, immunities, powers, and duties, 3 (ii) be subject to the same conditions, restrictions, 4 limitations, penalties, exclusions, exemptions, and 5 definitions of terms, and (iii) employ the same modes of 6 procedure as are prescribed in Sections 1a-1, 2 (except that 7 the reference to State in the definition of supplier 8 maintaining a place of business in this State shall mean the 9 county), 2a, 3 through 3-50 (in respect to all provisions 10 therein other than the State rate of tax), 4 (except that the 11 reference to the State shall be to the county), 5, 7, 8 12 (except that the jurisdiction to which the tax shall be a 13 debt to the extent indicated in that Section 8 shall be the 14 county), 9 (except as to the disposition of taxes and 15 penalties collected, and except that the returned merchandise 16 credit for this tax may not be taken against any State tax), 17 10, 11, 12 (except the reference therein to Section 2b of the 18 Retailers' Occupation Tax Act), 13 (except that any reference 19 to the State shall mean the county), the first paragraph of 20 Section 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 and 20 of the Service Occupation 21 Tax Act and Section 3-7 of the Uniform Penalty and Interest 22 Act, as fully as if those provisions were set forth herein. 23 Persons subject to any tax imposed under the authority 24 granted in this subsection may reimburse themselves for their 25 serviceman's tax liability by separately stating the tax as 26 an additional charge, which charge may be stated in 27 combination, in a single amount, with State tax that 28 servicemen are authorized to collect under the Service Use 29 Tax Act, in accordance with such bracket schedules as the 30 Department may prescribe. 31 Whenever the Department determines that a refund should 32 be made under this subsection to a claimant instead of 33 issuing a credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the 34 State Comptroller, who shall cause the warrant to be drawn SB374 Enrolled -24- LRB9002207DNmbB 1 for the amount specified, and to the person named, in the 2 notification from the Department. The refund shall be paid 3 by the State Treasurer out of the County Public Safety 4 Retailers' Occupation Fund. 5 Nothing in this subsection shall be construed to 6 authorize the county to impose a tax upon the privilege of 7 engaging in any business which under the Constitution of the 8 United States may not be made the subject of taxation by the 9 State. 10 (c) The Department shall immediately pay over to the 11 State Treasurer, Ex Officio, as trustee, all taxes and 12 penalties collected under this Section to be deposited into 13 the County Public Safety Retailers' Occupation Tax Fund, 14 which is created in the State treasury. On or before the 15 25th day of each calendar month, the Department shall prepare 16 and certify to the Comptroller the disbursement of stated 17 sums of money to the counties from which retailers have paid 18 taxes or penalties to the Department during the second 19 preceding calendar month. The amount to be paid to each 20 county shall be the amount (not including credit memoranda) 21 collected under this Section during the second preceding 22 calendar month by the Department plus an amount the 23 Department determines is necessary to offset any amounts that 24 were erroneously paid to a different taxing body, and not 25 including (i) an amount equal to the amount of refunds made 26 during the second preceding calendar month by the Department 27 on behalf of the county and (ii) any amount that the 28 Department determines is necessary to offset any amounts that 29 were payable to a different taxing body but were erroneously 30 paid to the county. Within 10 days after receipt by the 31 Comptroller of the disbursement certification to the counties 32 provided for in this Section to be given to the Comptroller 33 by the Department, the Comptroller shall cause the orders to 34 be drawn for the respective amounts in accordance with SB374 Enrolled -25- LRB9002207DNmbB 1 directions contained in the certification. 2 In addition to the disbursement required by the preceding 3 paragraph, an allocation shall be made in March of each year 4 to each county that received more than $500,000 in 5 disbursements under the preceding paragraph in the preceding 6 calendar year. The allocation shall be in an amount equal to 7 the average monthly distribution made to each such county 8 under the preceding paragraph during the preceding calendar 9 year (excluding the 2 months of highest receipts). The 10 distribution made in March of each year subsequent to the 11 year in which an allocation was made pursuant to this 12 paragraph and the preceding paragraph shall be reduced by the 13 amount allocated and disbursed under this paragraph in the 14 preceding calendar year. The Department shall prepare and 15 certify to the Comptroller for disbursement the allocations 16 made in accordance with this paragraph. 17 (d) For the purpose of determining the local 18 governmental unit whose tax is applicable, a retail sale by a 19 producer of coal or another mineral mined in Illinois is a 20 sale at retail at the place where the coal or other mineral 21 mined in Illinois is extracted from the earth. This 22 paragraph does not apply to coal or another mineral when it 23 is delivered or shipped by the seller to the purchaser at a 24 point outside Illinois so that the sale is exempt under the 25 United States Constitution as a sale in interstate or foreign 26 commerce. For purposes of determining the local governmental 27 unit whose tax is applicable under Section 2-5(32) of the 28 Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, a retail sale by a lessor is a 29 sale at retail at the place where leased tangible personal 30 property is located. 31 (e) Nothing in this Section shall be construed to 32 authorize a county to impose a tax upon the privilege of 33 engaging in any business that under the Constitution of the 34 United States may not be made the subject of taxation by this SB374 Enrolled -26- LRB9002207DNmbB 1 State. 2 (f) The results of any election authorizing a 3 proposition to impose a tax under this Section or effecting a 4 change in the rate of tax shall be certified by the county 5 clerk and filed with the Illinois Department of Revenue on or 6 before the first day of June. The Illinois Department of 7 Revenue shall then proceed to administer and enforce this 8 Section as of the first day of January next following the 9 filing. 10 (g) When certifying the amount of a monthly disbursement 11 to a county under this Section, the Department shall increase 12 or decrease the amounts by an amount necessary to offset any 13 miscalculation of previous disbursements. The offset amount 14 shall be the amount erroneously disbursed within the previous 15 6 months from the time a miscalculation is discovered. 16 (h) This Section may be cited as the "Special County 17 Occupation Tax For Public Safety Law". 18 (Source: P.A. 89-107, eff. 1-1-96.) 19 Section 20. The Illinois Municipal Code is amended by 20 changing Sections 8-11-1, 8-11-1.3, and 8-11-1.6 as follows: 21 (65 ILCS 5/8-11-1) (from Ch. 24, par. 8-11-1) 22 Sec. 8-11-1. The corporate authorities of a home rule 23 municipality may impose a tax upon all persons engaged in the 24 business of selling tangible personal property, other than an 25 item of tangible personal property titled or registered with 26 an agency of this State's government, at retail in the 27 municipality on the gross receipts from these sales made in 28 the course of such business. If imposed, the tax shall only 29 be imposed in 1/4% increments. On and after September 1, 30 1991, this additional tax may not be imposed on the sales of 31 food for human consumption that is to be consumed off the 32 premises where it is sold (other than alcoholic beverages, SB374 Enrolled -27- LRB9002207DNmbB 1 soft drinks and food that has been prepared for immediate 2 consumption) and prescription and nonprescription medicines, 3 drugs, medical appliances and insulin, urine testing 4 materials, syringes and needles used by diabetics. The tax 5 imposed by a home rule municipality under this Section and 6 all civil penalties that may be assessed as an incident of 7 the tax shall be collected and enforced by the State 8 Department of Revenue. The certificate of registration that 9 is issued by the Department to a retailer under the 10 Retailers' Occupation Tax Act shall permit the retailer to 11 engage in a business that is taxable under any ordinance or 12 resolution enacted pursuant to this Section without 13 registering separately with the Department under such 14 ordinance or resolution or under this Section. The 15 Department shall have full power to administer and enforce 16 this Section; to collect all taxes and penalties due 17 hereunder; to dispose of taxes and penalties so collected in 18 the manner hereinafter provided; and to determine all rights 19 to credit memoranda arising on account of the erroneous 20 payment of tax or penalty hereunder. In the administration 21 of, and compliance with, this Section the Department and 22 persons who are subject to this Section shall have the same 23 rights, remedies, privileges, immunities, powers and duties, 24 and be subject to the same conditions, restrictions, 25 limitations, penalties and definitions of terms, and employ 26 the same modes of procedure, as are prescribed in Sections 1, 27 1a, 1d, 1e, 1f, 1i, 1j, 2 through 2-65 (in respect to all 28 provisions therein other than the State rate of tax), 2c, 3 29 (except as to the disposition of taxes and penalties 30 collected), 4, 5, 5a, 5b, 5c, 5d, 5e, 5f, 5g, 5h, 5i, 5j, 5k, 31 5l, 6, 6a, 6b, 6c, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13 of the 32 Retailers' Occupation Tax Act and Section 3-7 of the Uniform 33 Penalty and Interest Act, as fully as if those provisions 34 were set forth herein. SB374 Enrolled -28- LRB9002207DNmbB 1 No tax may be imposed by a home rule municipality under 2 this Section unless the municipality also imposes a tax at 3 the same rate under Section 8-11-5 of this Act. 4 Persons subject to any tax imposed under the authority 5 granted in this Section may reimburse themselves for their 6 seller's tax liability hereunder by separately stating that 7 tax as an additional charge, which charge may be stated in 8 combination, in a single amount, with State tax which sellers 9 are required to collect under the Use Tax Act, pursuant to 10 such bracket schedules as the Department may prescribe. 11 Whenever the Department determines that a refund should 12 be made under this Section to a claimant instead of issuing a 13 credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State 14 Comptroller, who shall cause the order to be drawn for the 15 amount specified and to the person named in the notification 16 from the Department. The refund shall be paid by the State 17 Treasurer out of the home rule municipal retailers' 18 occupation tax fund. 19 The Department shall immediately pay over to the State 20 Treasurer, ex officio, as trustee, all taxes and penalties 21 collected hereunder. On or before the 25th day of each 22 calendar month, the Department shall prepare and certify to 23 the Comptroller the disbursement of stated sums of money to 24 named municipalities, the municipalities to be those from 25 which retailers have paid taxes or penalties hereunder to the 26 Department during the second preceding calendar month. The 27 amount to be paid to each municipality shall be the amount 28 (not including credit memoranda) collected hereunder during 29 the second preceding calendar month by the Department plus an 30 amount the Department determines is necessary to offset any 31 amounts that were erroneously paid to a different taxing 32 body, and not including an amount equal to the amount of 33 refunds made during the second preceding calendar month by 34 the Department on behalf of such municipality, and not SB374 Enrolled -29- LRB9002207DNmbB 1 including any amount that the Department determines is 2 necessary to offset any amounts that were payable to a 3 different taxing body but were erroneously paid to the 4 municipality. Within 10 days after receipt by the Comptroller 5 of the disbursement certification to the municipalities 6 provided for in this Section to be given to the Comptroller 7 by the Department, the Comptroller shall cause the orders to 8 be drawn for the respective amounts in accordance with the 9 directions contained in the certification. 10 In addition to the disbursement required by the preceding 11 paragraph and in order to mitigate delays caused by 12 distribution procedures, an allocation shall, if requested, 13 be made within 10 days after January 14, 1991, and in 14 November of 1991 and each year thereafter, to each 15 municipality that received more than $500,000 during the 16 preceding fiscal year, (July 1 through June 30) whether 17 collected by the municipality or disbursed by the Department 18 as required by this Section. Within 10 days after January 14, 19 1991, participating municipalities shall notify the 20 Department in writing of their intent to participate. In 21 addition, for the initial distribution, participating 22 municipalities shall certify to the Department the amounts 23 collected by the municipality for each month under its home 24 rule occupation and service occupation tax during the period 25 July 1, 1989 through June 30, 1990. The allocation within 10 26 days after January 14, 1991, shall be in an amount equal to 27 the monthly average of these amounts, excluding the 2 months 28 of highest receipts. The monthly average for the period of 29 July 1, 1990 through June 30, 1991 will be determined as 30 follows: the amounts collected by the municipality under its 31 home rule occupation and service occupation tax during the 32 period of July 1, 1990 through September 30, 1990, plus 33 amounts collected by the Department and paid to such 34 municipality through June 30, 1991, excluding the 2 months of SB374 Enrolled -30- LRB9002207DNmbB 1 highest receipts. The monthly average for each subsequent 2 period of July 1 through June 30 shall be an amount equal to 3 the monthly distribution made to each such municipality under 4 the preceding paragraph during this period, excluding the 2 5 months of highest receipts. The distribution made in 6 November 1991 and each year thereafter under this paragraph 7 and the preceding paragraph shall be reduced by the amount 8 allocated and disbursed under this paragraph in the preceding 9 period of July 1 through June 30. The Department shall 10 prepare and certify to the Comptroller for disbursement the 11 allocations made in accordance with this paragraph. 12 For the purpose of determining the local governmental 13 unit whose tax is applicable, a retail sale by a producer of 14 coal or other mineral mined in Illinois is a sale at retail 15 at the place where the coal or other mineral mined in 16 Illinois is extracted from the earth. This paragraph does 17 not apply to coal or other mineral when it is delivered or 18 shipped by the seller to the purchaser at a point outside 19 Illinois so that the sale is exempt under the United States 20 Constitution as a sale in interstate or foreign commerce. For 21 purposes of determining the local governmental unit whose tax 22 is applicable under Section 2-5(32) of the Retailers' 23 Occupation Tax Act, a retail sale by a lessor is a sale at 24 retail at the place where leased tangible personal property 25 is located. 26 Nothing in this Section shall be construed to authorize a 27 municipality to impose a tax upon the privilege of engaging 28 in any business which under the Constitution of the United 29 States may not be made the subject of taxation by this State. 30 An ordinance or resolution imposing or discontinuing a 31 tax hereunder or effecting a change in the rate thereof shall 32 be adopted and a certified copy thereof filed with the 33 Department on or before the first day of June, whereupon the 34 Department shall proceed to administer and enforce this SB374 Enrolled -31- LRB9002207DNmbB 1 Section as of the first day of September next following the 2 adoption and filing. Beginning January 1, 1992, an ordinance 3 or resolution imposing or discontinuing the tax hereunder or 4 effecting a change in the rate thereof shall be adopted and a 5 certified copy thereof filed with the Department on or before 6 the first day of July, whereupon the Department shall proceed 7 to administer and enforce this Section as of the first day of 8 October next following such adoption and filing. Beginning 9 January 1, 1993, an ordinance or resolution imposing or 10 discontinuing the tax hereunder or effecting a change in the 11 rate thereof shall be adopted and a certified copy thereof 12 filed with the Department on or before the first day of 13 October, whereupon the Department shall proceed to administer 14 and enforce this Section as of the first day of January next 15 following the adoption and filing.

Such refund shall be paid 4 by the State Treasurer out of the non-home rule municipal 5 retailers' occupation tax fund. 6 The Department shall forthwith pay over to the State 7 Treasurer, ex officio, as trustee, all taxes and penalties 8 collected hereunder.
