6 | (35 ILCS 200/15-15)
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7 | Sec. 15-15. Obligation to file copies of leases or | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8 | agreements. If any

10 | available for profit, the titleholder or the owner of
the | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11 | beneficial interest shall file with the assessment officer and | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12 | the collector's office a copy of all
such leases or agreements | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13 | and a complete description of the premises, so the
chief county | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14 | assessment officer can ascertain the exact size and location of
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
15 | the premises in order to create a tax parcel. Failure to file | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
16 | such leases,

17 | assessment officer and the collector's office shall, in the | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
18 | discretion of the chief county

19 | cause to terminate the exemption,
notwithstanding any other | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
20 | provision of this Code.

|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | Sec. 15-20. Notification requirements after change in use | ||||||
2 | or ownership. If
any property listed as exempt by the chief | ||||||
3 | county assessment officer has a
change in use, a change in | ||||||
4 | leasehold estate, or a change in titleholder of
record by | ||||||
5 | purchase, grant, taking or transfer, it is the obligation of | ||||||

10 | the taxpayer, the legal
description of the property, the | ||||||
11 | address of the property, and the permanent
index number of the | ||||||
12 | property where such number exists. If the failure to give

14 | property as
exempt in subsequent years, the property shall be | ||||||
15 | considered omitted property
for purposes of this Code.
