| ||||||
| 2 | AMENDMENT NO. ______. Amend House Bill 3448 by replacing | ||||||
| 3 | everything after the enacting clause with the following:
| ||||||
| 4 | "Section 5. The Local Tax Collection Act is amended by | ||||||
| 5 | changing Section 1 as follows:
| ||||||
| 6 | (35 ILCS 720/1) (from Ch. 120, par. 1901)
| ||||||
| 7 | Sec. 1.
(a) The Department of Revenue and any unit of local | ||||||
| 8 | government county or municipality
may agree to the Department's | ||||||
| 9 | collecting, and transmitting back to the unit of local | ||||||
| 10 | government such county
or municipality, any tax lawfully | ||||||
| 11 | imposed by that unit of local government county or | ||||||
| 12 | municipality,
the subject of which is similar to that of a tax | ||||||
| 13 | imposed by the State and
collected by the Department of | ||||||
| 14 | Revenue, unless the General Assembly has
specifically required | ||||||
| 15 | a different method of collection for such tax.
However, the | ||||||
| 16 | Department may not enter into a contract with any unit of local | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | government municipality
or county pursuant to this Act for the | ||||||
| 2 | collection of any tax based on the
sale or use of tangible | ||||||
| 3 | personal property generally, not including taxes
based only on | ||||||
| 4 | the sale or use of specifically limited kinds of tangible
| ||||||
| 5 | personal property, unless the
municipal or county ordinance | ||||||
| 6 | adopted by the unit of local government imposes a sales or use | ||||||
| 7 | tax which is
substantively identical to and which contains the | ||||||
| 8 | same exemptions as the
taxes imposed by the unit of local | ||||||
| 9 | government's municipalities' or counties' ordinances | ||||||
| 10 | authorized by
the Home Rule or Non-Home Rule Municipal or | ||||||
| 11 | County Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, the Home Rule or Non-Home | ||||||
| 12 | Rule or the Municipal or
County Use Tax, or any other | ||||||
| 13 | Retailers' Occupation Tax Act or Law that is administered by | ||||||
| 14 | the Department of Revenue, as interpreted by the Department | ||||||
| 15 | through its regulations as
those Acts and as those regulations | ||||||
| 16 | may from time to time be amended.
| ||||||
| 17 | (b) Regarding the collection of a tax pursuant to this | ||||||
| 18 | Section, the
Department and any person subject to a tax | ||||||
| 19 | collected by the Department
pursuant to this Section shall, as | ||||||
| 20 | much as practicable, have the same
rights, remedies, | ||||||
| 21 | privileges, immunities, powers and duties, and be subject
to | ||||||
| 22 | the same conditions, restrictions, limitations,
penalties, | ||||||
| 23 | definitions of terms and procedures, as those set forth in the
| ||||||
| 24 | Act imposing the State tax, the subject of which is similar to | ||||||
| 25 | the tax being
collected by the Department pursuant to this | ||||||
| 26 | Section. The Department and
unit of local government county or | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | municipality shall specifically agree in writing to such | ||||||
| 2 | rights,
remedies, privileges, immunities, powers, duties, | ||||||
| 3 | conditions, restrictions,
limitations, penalties, definitions | ||||||
| 4 | of terms and procedures, as well as any
other terms deemed | ||||||
| 5 | necessary or advisable. All terms so agreed upon shall
be | ||||||
| 6 | incorporated into an ordinance of such unit of local government | ||||||
| 7 | county or municipality,
and the Department shall not collect | ||||||
| 8 | the tax pursuant to this Section until
such ordinance takes | ||||||
| 9 | effect.

and certify | ||||||
| 14 | to the Comptroller the disbursement of stated sums of money to
| ||||||
| 15 | named units of local government cities and counties from which | ||||||
| 16 | retailers or other taxpayers have paid taxes or penalties
| ||||||
| 17 | hereunder to the Department during the second preceding | ||||||
| 18 | calendar month.
| ||||||
| 19 | (i) The an amount to be paid to each unit of local | ||||||
| 20 | government county and municipality, which shall equal
the taxes | ||||||
| 21 | and penalties collected by the Department for the unit of local | ||||||
| 22 | government such county or
municipality pursuant to this Section | ||||||
| 23 | during the second preceding calendar month (not including | ||||||
| 24 | credit memoranda), plus an amount the Department determines is | ||||||
| 25 | necessary to offset any amounts which were erroneously paid to | ||||||
| 26 | a different taxing body, and not including (i) an amount equal | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | to the amount of refunds made during the second preceding | ||||||
| 2 | calendar month by the Department of behalf of such county or | ||||||
| 3 | municipality and (ii) any amount which the Department | ||||||
| 4 | determines is necessary to offset any amounts which are payable | ||||||
| 5 | to a different taxing body but were erroneously paid to the | ||||||
| 6 | municipality or county,
less 2% of the balance, or any greater | ||||||
| 7 | amount of the balance as provided in the agreement between the | ||||||
| 8 | Department and the unit of local government required under this | ||||||
| 9 | Section, which sum shall be retained by the State Treasurer. | ||||||

| ||||||

| 12 | actual cost

| 13 | determined pursuant to the
agreement described in subsection | ||||||
| 14 | (b), whichever is less, which shall be
retained by the State; | ||||||
| 15 | and
| ||||||
| 16 | (ii) With respect to the total amount to be retained by the | ||||||
| 17 | State Treasurer pursuant to
subparagraph (i), the Department, | ||||||
| 18 | at the time of each monthly disbursement to the units of local | ||||||
| 19 | government, shall prepare and certify to the Comptroller the | ||||||
| 20 | amount so retained by the State Treasurer, which shall be | ||||||
| 21 | transferred such amount to be deposited into the Tax Compliance | ||||||
| 22 | and Administration General Revenue Fund
of the State treasury | ||||||
| 23 | and used by the Department, subject to appropriation, to cover | ||||||
| 24 | the costs incurred by the
Department in collecting such taxes | ||||||
| 25 | and penalties.
| ||||||
| 26 | (2) Within 10 7 days after receiving the certifications | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | described in paragraph
(1), the Comptroller shall issue orders | ||||||
| 2 | for payment of the amounts specified
in subparagraph (i) of | ||||||
| 3 | paragraph (1).
| ||||||
| 4 | (d) Any home rule unit of local government which imposes a | ||||||
| 5 | tax
collected by the Department pursuant to this Section | ||||||
| 6 | substantially similar to a State imposed tax, or which imposes | ||||||
| 7 | a tax which
is intended to be collected from a retail purchaser | ||||||
| 8 | of goods or services at
the same time a similar State tax is | ||||||
| 9 | also collected, must file a certified copy of
the ordinance | ||||||
| 10 | imposing the tax with the Department within 10 days after
its | ||||||
| 11 | passage. Beginning on the effective date of this amendatory Act | ||||||
| 12 | of the 99th General Assembly, an ordinance or resolution | ||||||
| 13 | imposing or discontinuing a tax collected by the Department | ||||||
| 14 | under this Section or effecting a change in the rate thereof | ||||||
| 15 | shall either (i) be adopted and a certified copy thereof filed | ||||||
| 16 | with the Department on or before the first day of April, | ||||||
| 17 | whereupon the
Department shall proceed to administer and | ||||||
| 18 | enforce the tax imposition, discontinuance, or rate change as | ||||||
| 19 | of the first day of July next following the adoption and | ||||||
| 20 | filing; or (ii) be adopted and certified copy thereof filed | ||||||
| 21 | with the Department on or before the first day of October, | ||||||
| 22 | whereupon the Department shall proceed to administer and | ||||||
| 23 | enforce the tax imposition, discontinuance, or rate change as | ||||||
| 24 | of the first day of January next following the adoption and | ||||||

| ||||||
| 26 | filed. Any home rule unit of local government which has enacted | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | such an
ordinance prior to the effective date of this Act shall | ||||||
| 2 | file a copy of such
ordinance with the Department within 90 | ||||||
| 3 | days after the effective date of this Act.
| ||||||

| 5 | paragraph
(g) of Section 6 of Article VII of the Illinois | ||||||
| 6 | Constitution, that this
amendatory Act of 1988 is a denial of | ||||||
| 7 | the power of a home rule unit to fail
to comply with the | ||||||
| 8 | requirements of paragraphs (d) and (e) of this Section.
