5 Section 5. The Property Tax Code is amended by changing
6 Section 9-55 as follows:
7 (35 ILCS 200/9-55)
8 Sec. 9-55. Survey by owner. When a property is divided
9 into parcels so that it cannot be described without
10 describing it by metes and bounds, it is the duty of the
11 owner to have the land surveyed and platted into lots. The
12 platting shall be in accord with the Plat Act. The plat shall
13 be certified and recorded. Any unit of local government
14 responsible for issuing building permits may require, by
15 ordinance, that the plat be certified and recorded before the
16 building permit is issued. The description of property, in
17 accordance with the number and description in the plat, shall
18 be a valid description of the property described. However, no
19 plat of a subdivision, vacation or dedication of a tract of
20 land shall be approved by a city, incorporated town or
21 village officer, nor shall any recorder record a plat, unless
22 a statement from the county clerk is endorsed thereon showing
23 that he or she finds no delinquent general taxes, unpaid
24 current general taxes, delinquent special assessments or
25 unpaid current special assessments against the tract of land.
26 No officer of a city, village or incorporated town shall
27 approve the plat of a subdivision of a tract of land until
28 all deferred installments of outstanding unpaid special
29 assessments are either certified as paid by the proper
30 collector, or a division thereof is made in accord with the
31 proposed subdivision and duly approved by the court that
