A BILL FOR
SB0346 LRB100 05017 KTG 15027 b
AN ACT concerning housing.
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
represented in the General Assembly:
Section 5. The Affordable Housing Planning and Appeal Act
is amended by changing Section 20 as follows:
(310 ILCS 67/20)
Sec. 20. Determination of exempt local governments.
(a) Beginning October 1, 2004, the the Illinois Housing
Development Authority shall determine which local governments
are exempt and not exempt from the operation of this Act based
on an identification of the total number of year-round housing
units in the most recent data from the U.S. Census Bureau for
each local government within the State and by an inventory of
owner-occupied and rental affordable housing units, as defined
in this Act, for each local government from the U.S. Census
Bureau and other relevant sources.
(b) The Illinois Housing Development Authority shall make
this determination by:
(i) totaling the number of owner-occupied housing
units in each local government that are affordable to
households with a gross household income that is less than
80% of the median household income within the county or
primary metropolitan statistical area;

SB0346 - 2 - LRB100 05017 KTG 15027 b
(ii) totaling the number of rental units in each local
government that are affordable to households with a gross
household income that is less than 60% of the median
household income within the county or primary metropolitan
statistical area;
(iii) adding the number of owner-occupied and rental
units for each local government from items (i) and (ii);
and
(iv) dividing the sum of (iii) above by the total
number of year-round housing units in the local government
as contained in the latest U.S. Census Bureau and
multiplying the result by 100 to determine the percentage
of affordable housing units within the jurisdiction of the
local government.
(c) Beginning on the effective date of this amendatory Act
of the 98th General Assembly, the Illinois Housing Development
Authority shall publish a list of exempt and non-exempt local
governments and the data that it used to calculate its
determination at least once every 5 years. The data shall be
shown for each local government in the State and for the State
as a whole. Upon publishing a list of exempt and non-exempt
local governments, the Illinois Housing Development Authority
shall notify a local government that it is not exempt from the
operation of this Act and provide to it the data used to
calculate its determination.
(d) A local government or developer of affordable housing

SB0346 - 3 - LRB100 05017 KTG 15027 b
may appeal the determination of the Illinois Housing
Development Authority as to whether the local government is
exempt or non-exempt under this Act in connection with an
appeal under Section 30 of this Act.
