AMENDMENT TO SENATE BILL 807
AMENDMENT NO. ______. Amend Senate Bill 807 by replacing
everything after the enacting clause with the following:
"Section 5. The Property Tax Code is amended by changing
Section 9-5 as follows:
(35 ILCS 200/9-5)
Sec. 9-5. Rules.
(a) Each county assessor, board of appeals, and board of
review shall make and publish reasonable rules for the guidance
of persons doing business with them and for the orderly
dispatch of business.
(b) In counties with fewer than 3,000,000 inhabitants,
these rules shall not require specific proof to be offered nor
limit the nature of evidence which may be offered as a
condition of filing an assessment complaint under Section
16-55.

09900SB0807ham002 - 2 - LRB099 08017 HLH 48353 a
(c) In counties with 3,000,000 or more inhabitants, the
county assessor and board of appeals (ending the first Monday
in December 1998 and the board of review beginning the first
Monday in December 1998 and thereafter), jointly shall make and
prescribe rules for the assessment of property and the
preparation of the assessment books by the township assessors
in their respective townships and for the return of those books
to the county assessor.
(d) In counties with 3,000,000 or more inhabitants, the
county assessor may make and prescribe rules regulating
non-attorney taxpayer representatives doing business before
the assessor's office. The county assessor in a county with
3,000,000 or more inhabitants may require the registration of
non-attorney taxpayer representatives who do business before
the assessor's office. Those county assessors may charge a
registration fee. For the purposes of this subsection (d),
"non-attorney taxpayer representative" means a person who (i)
is not an attorney licensed to practice law in this State and
(ii) for compensation, represents a taxpayer, other than
himself or herself, in doing business before the assessor's
office.
