mass transportation facilities. Grants  shall  be  made  upon
such terms and conditions as in the judgment of the Secretary
are   necessary   to   ensure   their  proper  and  effective
utilization.
    (3)  The Department shall make grants under this Act in a
manner designed, so far as is consistent with the maintenance
and development of a sound mass transportation system  within
the  State, to: (a) maximize federal funds for the assistance
of mass transportation in Illinois under the Federal  Transit
Act  Urban  Mass  Transportation Act of 1964, as amended, and
other federal acts; (b) facilitate the  movement  of  persons
who   because  of  age,  economic  circumstance  or  physical

assistance  for  which  a  federal grant application has been
made but a federal grant has been delayed.   If  and  when  a
federal grant is made, the amount in excess of the nonfederal
share shall be promptly returned to the Department.
    In  no  event  shall  the  Department make a grant which,
together with any federal  funds  or  funds  from  any  other
source is in excess of 100% of the net project cost.
    (6)  Regardless  of whether any funds are available under
a federal  grant,  the  Department  shall  not  make  a  mass
transportation  grant  unless  the  Secretary  finds that the
recipient has entered into an agreement with  the  Department
in  which  the  recipient  agrees not to engage in school bus
operations exclusively for the transportation of students and
school personnel  in  competition  with  private  school  bus
operators where such private school bus operators are able to
provide  adequate  transportation,  at  reasonable  rates, in
conformance with applicable safety standards,  provided  that

operates  a  school  system  in  the  area  to  be served and

school system.

with funds appropriated from the Build Illinois Bond Fund  or

Assembly,  consistent  with  the  specific purposes for which
such funds are appropriated by the General Assembly.   Grants
under  this subsection (7) are not subject to any limitations
or conditions imposed upon grants by any other  provision  of
this Section, except that the Secretary may impose such terms
and conditions as in his judgment are necessary to ensure the
proper  and  effective  utilization  of the grants under this
subsection.
    (8)  The  Department   may   let   contracts   for   mass
transportation  purposes  and  facilities  for the purpose of
reducing urban congestion funded in whole  or  in  part  with
bonds  described  in  subsection  (b)(1)  of Section 4 of the
General Obligation Bond Act, not  to  exceed  $75,000,000  in
bonds.
    (9)  The   Department   may   make  grants  to  carriers,

the  purpose  of reimbursing them for providing reduced fares
for mass transportation services  for  students,  handicapped
persons  and  the  elderly.   Grants  shall be made upon such
terms and conditions as in the judgment of the Secretary  are
necessary to ensure their proper and effective utilization.

the second division wishes to or is required to reclassify  a
vehicle  from  a  calendar  year  to a fiscal year basis, the

vehicle shall however be eligible for a credit of $10 for the
registration  fee  specified   under   Section   3-813   when
reregistering such vehicle as required by law.
    (f)  Reclassification of a registration of a vehicle from
one  class  to  another  may  be  made  only  once within any

registration  fee,  less  the  reclassification fees or taxes
which  may be due the State of Illinois under  this  Act  and
under the International Registration Plan.

of reclassification under this subsection if the Secretary of
State determines that  the  applicant  is  not  eligible  for
registration or reclassification under said Plan.
    (h)  From   July  1  through  December  31  of  the  1983

the vehicle is being reclassified.
    (i)  From   January   1  through  June  30  of  the  1984
registration year, an owner  registering  a  second  division
vehicle  on  a  fiscal  year  basis into the "X", "Z" or "TN"
