8licensed by the Department of Human Services for substance use
9disorder treatment.
10 (h) If the Department finds that there is no appropriate
11program or facility within or available to the Department for
12a youth in care and that no licensed private facility has an
13adequate and appropriate program or none agrees to accept the
14youth in care, the Department shall create an appropriate
15individualized, program-oriented plan for such youth in care.
16The plan may be developed within the Department or through
17purchase of services by the Department to the extent that it is
18within its statutory authority to do.

16children who (i) immediately prior to their adoption were
17youth in care or (ii) were determined eligible for financial
18assistance with respect to a prior adoption and who become
19available for adoption because the prior adoption has been
20dissolved and the parental rights of the adoptive parents have
21been terminated or because the child's adoptive parents have
22died. The Department may continue to provide financial
23assistance and education assistance grants for a child who was
24determined eligible for financial assistance under this
25subsection (j) in the interim period beginning when the
26child's adoptive parents died and ending with the finalization

SB2435 Enrolled- 142 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1of the new adoption of the child by another adoptive parent or
2parents. The Department may also provide categories of
3financial assistance and education assistance grants, and
4shall establish rules and regulations for the assistance and
5grants, to persons appointed guardian of the person under
6Section 5-7 of the Juvenile Court Act or Section 2-27, 3-28,
74-25, or 5-740 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 for children
8who were youth in care for 12 months immediately prior to the
9appointment of the guardian.
10 The amount of assistance may vary, depending upon the
11needs of the child and the adoptive parents, as set forth in
12the annual assistance agreement. Special purpose grants are
13allowed where the child requires special service but such
14costs may not exceed the amounts which similar services would
15cost the Department if it were to provide or secure them as
16guardian of the child.

3 (l) The Department shall offer family preservation
4services, as defined in Section 8.2 of the Abused and
5Neglected Child Reporting Act, to help families, including
6adoptive and extended families. Family preservation services
7shall be offered (i) to prevent the placement of children in
8substitute care when the children can be cared for at home or
9in the custody of the person responsible for the children's
10welfare, (ii) to reunite children with their families, or
11(iii) to maintain an adoptive placement. Family preservation
12services shall only be offered when doing so will not endanger
13the children's health or safety. With respect to children who
14are in substitute care pursuant to the Juvenile Court Act of
151987, family preservation services shall not be offered if a
16goal other than those of subdivisions (A), (B), or (B-1) of
17subsection (2) of Section 2-28 of that Act has been set, except
18that reunification services may be offered as provided in
19paragraph (F) of subsection (2) of Section 2-28 of that Act.
20Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to create a
21private right of action or claim on the part of any individual
22or child welfare agency, except that when a child is the
23subject of an action under Article II of the Juvenile Court Act
24of 1987 and the child's service plan calls for services to
25facilitate achievement of the permanency goal, the court
26hearing the action under Article II of the Juvenile Court Act

SB2435 Enrolled- 144 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1of 1987 may order the Department to provide the services set
2out in the plan, if those services are not provided with
3reasonable promptness and if those services are available.
4 The Department shall notify the child and his family of
5the Department's responsibility to offer and provide family
6preservation services as identified in the service plan. The
7child and his family shall be eligible for services as soon as
8the report is determined to be "indicated". The Department may
9offer services to any child or family with respect to whom a
10report of suspected child abuse or neglect has been filed,
11prior to concluding its investigation under Section 7.12 of
12the Abused and Neglected Child Reporting Act. However, the
13child's or family's willingness to accept services shall not
14be considered in the investigation. The Department may also
15provide services to any child or family who is the subject of
16any report of suspected child abuse or neglect or may refer
17such child or family to services available from other agencies
18in the community, even if the report is determined to be
19unfounded, if the conditions in the child's or family's home
20are reasonably likely to subject the child or family to future
21reports of suspected child abuse or neglect. Acceptance of
22such services shall be voluntary. The Department may also
23provide services to any child or family after completion of a
24family assessment, as an alternative to an investigation, as
25provided under the "differential response program" provided
26for in subsection (a-5) of Section 7.4 of the Abused and

SB2435 Enrolled- 145 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1Neglected Child Reporting Act.
2 The Department may, at its discretion except for those
3children also adjudicated neglected or dependent, accept for
4care and training any child who has been adjudicated addicted,
5as a truant minor in need of supervision or as a minor
6requiring authoritative intervention, under the Juvenile Court
7Act or the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, but no such child shall
8be committed to the Department by any court without the
9approval of the Department. On and after January 1, 2015 (the
10effective date of Public Act 98-803) and before January 1,
112017, a minor charged with a criminal offense under the
12Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012 or
13adjudicated delinquent shall not be placed in the custody of
14or committed to the Department by any court, except (i) a minor
15less than 16 years of age committed to the Department under
16Section 5-710 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, (ii) a minor
17for whom an independent basis of abuse, neglect, or dependency
18exists, which must be defined by departmental rule, or (iii) a
19minor for whom the court has granted a supplemental petition
20to reinstate wardship pursuant to subsection (2) of Section
212-33 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987. On and after January 1,
222017, a minor charged with a criminal offense under the
23Criminal Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012 or
24adjudicated delinquent shall not be placed in the custody of
25or committed to the Department by any court, except (i) a minor
26less than 15 years of age committed to the Department under

SB2435 Enrolled- 146 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1Section 5-710 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, ii) a minor
2for whom an independent basis of abuse, neglect, or dependency
3exists, which must be defined by departmental rule, or (iii) a
4minor for whom the court has granted a supplemental petition
5to reinstate wardship pursuant to subsection (2) of Section
62-33 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987. An independent basis
7exists when the allegations or adjudication of abuse, neglect,
8or dependency do not arise from the same facts, incident, or
9circumstances which give rise to a charge or adjudication of
10delinquency. The Department shall assign a caseworker to
11attend any hearing involving a youth in the care and custody of
12the Department who is placed on aftercare release, including
13hearings involving sanctions for violation of aftercare
14release conditions and aftercare release revocation hearings.
15 As soon as is possible after August 7, 2009 (the effective
16date of Public Act 96-134), the Department shall develop and
17implement a special program of family preservation services to
18support intact, foster, and adoptive families who are
19experiencing extreme hardships due to the difficulty and
20stress of caring for a child who has been diagnosed with a
21pervasive developmental disorder if the Department determines
22that those services are necessary to ensure the health and
23safety of the child. The Department may offer services to any
24family whether or not a report has been filed under the Abused
25and Neglected Child Reporting Act. The Department may refer
26the child or family to services available from other agencies

SB2435 Enrolled- 147 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1in the community if the conditions in the child's or family's
2home are reasonably likely to subject the child or family to
3future reports of suspected child abuse or neglect. Acceptance
4of these services shall be voluntary. The Department shall
5develop and implement a public information campaign to alert
6health and social service providers and the general public
7about these special family preservation services. The nature
8and scope of the services offered and the number of families
9served under the special program implemented under this
10paragraph shall be determined by the level of funding that the
11Department annually allocates for this purpose. The term
12"pervasive developmental disorder" under this paragraph means
13a neurological condition, including, but not limited to,
14Asperger's Syndrome and autism, as defined in the most recent
15edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental
16Disorders of the American Psychiatric Association.
17 (l-1) The legislature recognizes that the best interests
18of the child require that the child be placed in the most
19permanent living arrangement as soon as is practically
20possible. To achieve this goal, the legislature directs the
21Department of Children and Family Services to conduct
22concurrent planning so that permanency may occur at the
23earliest opportunity. Permanent living arrangements may
24include prevention of placement of a child outside the home of
25the family when the child can be cared for at home without
26endangering the child's health or safety; reunification with

SB2435 Enrolled- 148 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1the family, when safe and appropriate, if temporary placement
2is necessary; or movement of the child toward the most
3permanent living arrangement and permanent legal status.
4 When determining reasonable efforts to be made with
5respect to a child, as described in this subsection, and in
6making such reasonable efforts, the child's health and safety
7shall be the paramount concern.
8 When a child is placed in foster care, the Department
9shall ensure and document that reasonable efforts were made to
10prevent or eliminate the need to remove the child from the
11child's home. The Department must make reasonable efforts to
12reunify the family when temporary placement of the child
13occurs unless otherwise required, pursuant to the Juvenile
14Court Act of 1987. At any time after the dispositional hearing
15where the Department believes that further reunification
16services would be ineffective, it may request a finding from
17the court that reasonable efforts are no longer appropriate.
18The Department is not required to provide further
19reunification services after such a finding.
20 A decision to place a child in substitute care shall be
21made with considerations of the child's health, safety, and
22best interests. At the time of placement, consideration should
23also be given so that if reunification fails or is delayed, the
24placement made is the best available placement to provide
25permanency for the child.
26 The Department shall adopt rules addressing concurrent

SB2435 Enrolled- 149 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1planning for reunification and permanency. The Department
2shall consider the following factors when determining
3appropriateness of concurrent planning:
4 (1) the likelihood of prompt reunification;
5 (2) the past history of the family;
6 (3) the barriers to reunification being addressed by
7 the family;
8 (4) the level of cooperation of the family;
9 (5) the foster parents' willingness to work with the
10 family to reunite;
11 (6) the willingness and ability of the foster family
12 to provide an adoptive home or long-term placement;
13 (7) the age of the child;
14 (8) placement of siblings.
15 (m) The Department may assume temporary custody of any
16child if:
17 (1) it has received a written consent to such
18 temporary custody signed by the parents of the child or by
19 the parent having custody of the child if the parents are
20 not living together or by the guardian or custodian of the
21 child if the child is not in the custody of either parent,
22 or
23 (2) the child is found in the State and neither a
24 parent, guardian nor custodian of the child can be
25 located.
26If the child is found in his or her residence without a parent,

SB2435 Enrolled- 150 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1guardian, custodian, or responsible caretaker, the Department
2may, instead of removing the child and assuming temporary
3custody, place an authorized representative of the Department
4in that residence until such time as a parent, guardian, or
5custodian enters the home and expresses a willingness and
6apparent ability to ensure the child's health and safety and
7resume permanent charge of the child, or until a relative
8enters the home and is willing and able to ensure the child's
9health and safety and assume charge of the child until a
10parent, guardian, or custodian enters the home and expresses
11such willingness and ability to ensure the child's safety and
12resume permanent charge. After a caretaker has remained in the
13home for a period not to exceed 12 hours, the Department must
14follow those procedures outlined in Section 2-9, 3-11, 4-8, or
155-415 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987.
16 The Department shall have the authority, responsibilities
17and duties that a legal custodian of the child would have
18pursuant to subsection (9) of Section 1-3 of the Juvenile
19Court Act of 1987. Whenever a child is taken into temporary
20custody pursuant to an investigation under the Abused and
21Neglected Child Reporting Act, or pursuant to a referral and
22acceptance under the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 of a minor in
23limited custody, the Department, during the period of
24temporary custody and before the child is brought before a
25judicial officer as required by Section 2-9, 3-11, 4-8, or
265-415 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, shall have the

SB2435 Enrolled- 151 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1authority, responsibilities and duties that a legal custodian
2of the child would have under subsection (9) of Section 1-3 of
3the Juvenile Court Act of 1987.
4 The Department shall ensure that any child taken into
5custody is scheduled for an appointment for a medical
6examination.
7 A parent, guardian, or custodian of a child in the
8temporary custody of the Department who would have custody of
9the child if he were not in the temporary custody of the
10Department may deliver to the Department a signed request that
11the Department surrender the temporary custody of the child.
12The Department may retain temporary custody of the child for
1310 days after the receipt of the request, during which period
14the Department may cause to be filed a petition pursuant to the
15Juvenile Court Act of 1987. If a petition is so filed, the
16Department shall retain temporary custody of the child until
17the court orders otherwise. If a petition is not filed within
18the 10-day period, the child shall be surrendered to the
19custody of the requesting parent, guardian, or custodian not
20later than the expiration of the 10-day period, at which time
21the authority and duties of the Department with respect to the
22temporary custody of the child shall terminate.
23 (m-1) The Department may place children under 18 years of
24age in a secure child care facility licensed by the Department
25that cares for children who are in need of secure living
26arrangements for their health, safety, and well-being after a

SB2435 Enrolled- 152 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1determination is made by the facility director and the
2Director or the Director's designate prior to admission to the
3facility subject to Section 2-27.1 of the Juvenile Court Act
4of 1987. This subsection (m-1) does not apply to a child who is
5subject to placement in a correctional facility operated
6pursuant to Section 3-15-2 of the Unified Code of Corrections,
7unless the child is a youth in care who was placed in the care
8of the Department before being subject to placement in a
9correctional facility and a court of competent jurisdiction
10has ordered placement of the child in a secure care facility.
11 (n) The Department may place children under 18 years of
12age in licensed child care facilities when in the opinion of
13the Department, appropriate services aimed at family
14preservation have been unsuccessful and cannot ensure the
15child's health and safety or are unavailable and such
16placement would be for their best interest. Payment for board,
17clothing, care, training and supervision of any child placed
18in a licensed child care facility may be made by the
19Department, by the parents or guardians of the estates of
20those children, or by both the Department and the parents or
21guardians, except that no payments shall be made by the
22Department for any child placed in a licensed child care
23facility for board, clothing, care, training and supervision
24of such a child that exceed the average per capita cost of
25maintaining and of caring for a child in institutions for
26dependent or neglected children operated by the Department.

SB2435 Enrolled- 153 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1However, such restriction on payments does not apply in cases
2where children require specialized care and treatment for
3problems of severe emotional disturbance, physical disability,
4social adjustment, or any combination thereof and suitable
5facilities for the placement of such children are not
6available at payment rates within the limitations set forth in
7this Section. All reimbursements for services delivered shall
8be absolutely inalienable by assignment, sale, attachment, or
9garnishment or otherwise.
10 (n-1) The Department shall provide or authorize child
11welfare services, aimed at assisting minors to achieve
12sustainable self-sufficiency as independent adults, for any
13minor eligible for the reinstatement of wardship pursuant to
14subsection (2) of Section 2-33 of the Juvenile Court Act of
151987, whether or not such reinstatement is sought or allowed,
16provided that the minor consents to such services and has not
17yet attained the age of 21. The Department shall have
18responsibility for the development and delivery of services
19under this Section. An eligible youth may access services
20under this Section through the Department of Children and
21Family Services or by referral from the Department of Human
22Services. Youth participating in services under this Section
23shall cooperate with the assigned case manager in developing
24an agreement identifying the services to be provided and how
25the youth will increase skills to achieve self-sufficiency. A
26homeless shelter is not considered appropriate housing for any

SB2435 Enrolled- 154 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1youth receiving child welfare services under this Section. The
2Department shall continue child welfare services under this
3Section to any eligible minor until the minor becomes 21 years
4of age, no longer consents to participate, or achieves
5self-sufficiency as identified in the minor's service plan.
6The Department of Children and Family Services shall create
7clear, readable notice of the rights of former foster youth to
8child welfare services under this Section and how such
9services may be obtained. The Department of Children and
10Family Services and the Department of Human Services shall
11disseminate this information statewide. The Department shall
12adopt regulations describing services intended to assist
13minors in achieving sustainable self-sufficiency as
14independent adults.
15 (o) The Department shall establish an administrative
16review and appeal process for children and families who
17request or receive child welfare services from the Department.
18Youth in care who are placed by private child welfare
19agencies, and foster families with whom those youth are
20placed, shall be afforded the same procedural and appeal
21rights as children and families in the case of placement by the
22Department, including the right to an initial review of a
23private agency decision by that agency. The Department shall
24ensure that any private child welfare agency, which accepts
25youth in care for placement, affords those rights to children
26and foster families. The Department shall accept for

SB2435 Enrolled- 155 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1administrative review and an appeal hearing a complaint made
2by (i) a child or foster family concerning a decision
3following an initial review by a private child welfare agency
4or (ii) a prospective adoptive parent who alleges a violation
5of subsection (j-5) of this Section. An appeal of a decision
6concerning a change in the placement of a child shall be
7conducted in an expedited manner. A court determination that a
8current foster home placement is necessary and appropriate
9under Section 2-28 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 does not
10constitute a judicial determination on the merits of an
11administrative appeal, filed by a former foster parent,
12involving a change of placement decision.
13 (p) (Blank).
14 (q) The Department may receive and use, in their entirety,
15for the benefit of children any gift, donation, or bequest of
16money or other property which is received on behalf of such
17children, or any financial benefits to which such children are
18or may become entitled while under the jurisdiction or care of
19the Department.
20 The Department shall set up and administer no-cost,
21interest-bearing accounts in appropriate financial
22institutions for children for whom the Department is legally
23responsible and who have been determined eligible for
24Veterans' Benefits, Social Security benefits, assistance
25allotments from the armed forces, court ordered payments,
26parental voluntary payments, Supplemental Security Income,

SB2435 Enrolled- 156 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1Railroad Retirement payments, Black Lung benefits, or other
2miscellaneous payments. Interest earned by each account shall
3be credited to the account, unless disbursed in accordance
4with this subsection.
5 In disbursing funds from children's accounts, the
6Department shall:
7 (1) Establish standards in accordance with State and
8 federal laws for disbursing money from children's
9 accounts. In all circumstances, the Department's
10 "Guardianship Administrator" or his or her designee must
11 approve disbursements from children's accounts. The
12 Department shall be responsible for keeping complete
13 records of all disbursements for each account for any
14 purpose.
15 (2) Calculate on a monthly basis the amounts paid from
16 State funds for the child's board and care, medical care
17 not covered under Medicaid, and social services; and
18 utilize funds from the child's account, as covered by
19 regulation, to reimburse those costs. Monthly,
20 disbursements from all children's accounts, up to 1/12 of
21 $13,000,000, shall be deposited by the Department into the
22 General Revenue Fund and the balance over 1/12 of
23 $13,000,000 into the DCFS Children's Services Fund.
24 (3) Maintain any balance remaining after reimbursing
25 for the child's costs of care, as specified in item (2).
26 The balance shall accumulate in accordance with relevant

SB2435 Enrolled- 157 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 State and federal laws and shall be disbursed to the child
2 or his or her guardian, or to the issuing agency.
3 (r) The Department shall promulgate regulations
4encouraging all adoption agencies to voluntarily forward to
5the Department or its agent names and addresses of all persons
6who have applied for and have been approved for adoption of a
7hard-to-place child or child with a disability and the names
8of such children who have not been placed for adoption. A list
9of such names and addresses shall be maintained by the
10Department or its agent, and coded lists which maintain the
11confidentiality of the person seeking to adopt the child and
12of the child shall be made available, without charge, to every
13adoption agency in the State to assist the agencies in placing
14such children for adoption. The Department may delegate to an
15agent its duty to maintain and make available such lists. The
16Department shall ensure that such agent maintains the
17confidentiality of the person seeking to adopt the child and
18of the child.
19 (s) The Department of Children and Family Services may
20establish and implement a program to reimburse Department and
21private child welfare agency foster parents licensed by the
22Department of Children and Family Services for damages
23sustained by the foster parents as a result of the malicious or
24negligent acts of foster children, as well as providing third
25party coverage for such foster parents with regard to actions
26of foster children to other individuals. Such coverage will be

SB2435 Enrolled- 158 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1secondary to the foster parent liability insurance policy, if
2applicable. The program shall be funded through appropriations
3from the General Revenue Fund, specifically designated for
4such purposes.
5 (t) The Department shall perform home studies and
6investigations and shall exercise supervision over visitation
7as ordered by a court pursuant to the Illinois Marriage and
8Dissolution of Marriage Act or the Adoption Act only if:
9 (1) an order entered by an Illinois court specifically
10 directs the Department to perform such services; and
11 (2) the court has ordered one or both of the parties to
12 the proceeding to reimburse the Department for its
13 reasonable costs for providing such services in accordance
14 with Department rules, or has determined that neither
15 party is financially able to pay.
16 The Department shall provide written notification to the
17court of the specific arrangements for supervised visitation
18and projected monthly costs within 60 days of the court order.
19The Department shall send to the court information related to
20the costs incurred except in cases where the court has
21determined the parties are financially unable to pay. The
22court may order additional periodic reports as appropriate.
23 (u) In addition to other information that must be
24provided, whenever the Department places a child with a

22in the home. The Department may prepare a written summary of
23the information required by this paragraph, which may be
24provided to the foster or prospective adoptive parent in
25advance of a placement. The foster or prospective adoptive
26parent may review the supporting documents in the child's file

SB2435 Enrolled- 160 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b

15Opportunity Law of the Civil Administrative Code of Illinois
16is amended by renumbering and changing Section 913, by setting
17forth and renumbering multiple versions of Sections 605-1025
18and 605-1045, and by changing Section 605-1030 as follows:
19 (20 ILCS 605/605-913)
20 Sec. 605-913 913. Clean Water Workforce Pipeline Program.
21 (a) The General Assembly finds the following:
22 (1) The fresh surface water and groundwater supply in
23 Illinois and Lake Michigan constitute vital natural
24 resources that require careful stewardship and protection

SB2435 Enrolled- 172 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 for future generations. Access to safe and clean drinking
2 water is the right of all Illinois residents.
3 (2) To adequately protect these resources and provide
4 safe and clean drinking water, substantial investment is
5 needed to replace lead components in drinking water
6 infrastructure, improve wastewater treatment, flood
7 control, and stormwater management, control aquatic
8 invasive species, implement green infrastructure
9 solutions, and implement other infrastructure solutions to
10 protect water quality.
11 (3) Implementing these clean water solutions will
12 require a skilled and trained workforce, and new
13 investments will demand additional workers with
14 specialized skills.
15 (4) Water infrastructure jobs have been shown to
16 provide living wages and contribute to Illinois' economy.
17 (5) Significant populations of Illinois residents,
18 including, but not limited to, residents of environmental
19 justice communities, economically and socially
20 disadvantaged communities, those returning from the
21 criminal justice system, foster care alumni, and in
22 particular women and transgender persons, are in need of
23 access to skilled living wage jobs like those in the water
24 infrastructure sector.
25 (6) Many of these residents are more likely to live in
26 communities with aging and inadequate clean water

SB2435 Enrolled- 173 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 infrastructure and suffer from threats to surface and
2 drinking water quality.
3 (7) The State can provide significant economic
4 opportunities to these residents and achieve greater
5 environmental and public health by investing in clean
6 water infrastructure.
7 (8) New training, recruitment, support, and placement
8 efforts are needed to connect these residents with career
9 opportunities in water infrastructure.
10 (9) The State must invest in both clean water
11 infrastructure and workforce development efforts in order
12 to achieve these goals.
13 (b) From appropriations made from the Build Illinois Bond
14Fund, Capital Development Fund, or General Revenue Fund or
15other funds as identified by the Department, the Department
16shall create a Clean Water Workforce Pipeline Program to
17provide grants and other financial assistance to prepare and

9 the United States is 80% or more of the foreign
10 person's total business activity and (ii) for taxable
11 years ending on or after December 31, 2008, to a person
12 who would be a member of the same unitary business
13 group but for the fact that the person is prohibited
14 under Section 1501(a)(27) from being included in the
15 unitary business group because he or she is ordinarily
16 required to apportion business income under different

13 preponderance of the evidence, both of the
14 following:
15 (a) the person, during the same taxable
16 year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the interest
17 to a person that is not a related member, and
18 (b) the transaction giving rise to the
19 interest expense between the taxpayer and the
20 person did not have as a principal purpose the
21 avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid
22 pursuant to a contract or agreement that
23 reflects an arm's-length interest rate and
24 terms; or
25 (iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on
26 clear and convincing evidence, that the interest

SB2435 Enrolled- 407 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract
2 or agreement entered into at arm's-length rates
3 and terms and the principal purpose for the
4 payment is not federal or Illinois tax avoidance;
5 or
6 (iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or

12 of apportionment under Section 304(f).
13 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
14 Director from making any other adjustment
15 otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act
16 for any tax year beginning after the effective
17 date of this amendment provided such adjustment is
18 made pursuant to regulation adopted by the
19 Department and such regulations provide methods
20 and standards by which the Department will utilize
21 its authority under Section 404 of this Act;
22 (D-18) An amount equal to the amount of intangible
23 expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a deduction in
24 computing base income, and that were paid, accrued, or
25 incurred, directly or indirectly, (i) for taxable
26 years ending on or after December 31, 2004, to a

SB2435 Enrolled- 408 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 foreign person who would be a member of the same
2 unitary business group but for the fact that the
3 foreign person's business activity outside the United
4 States is 80% or more of that person's total business
5 activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after
6 December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of
7 the same unitary business group but for the fact that
8 the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27)
9 from being included in the unitary business group
10 because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion
11 business income under different subsections of Section
12 304. The addition modification required by this
13 subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that
14 dividends were included in base income of the unitary
15 group for the same taxable year and received by the
16 taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary
17 business group (including amounts included in gross
18 income under Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal
19 Revenue Code and amounts included in gross income
20 under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code) with
21 respect to the stock of the same person to whom the
22 intangible expenses and costs were directly or
23 indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The preceding
24 sentence does not apply to the extent that the same
25 dividends caused a reduction to the addition
26 modification required under Section 203(a)(2)(D-17) of

SB2435 Enrolled- 409 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b

5 ownership, sale, exchange, or any other disposition of
6 intangible property; (2) losses incurred, directly or
7 indirectly, from factoring transactions or discounting
8 transactions; (3) royalty, patent, technical, and
9 copyright fees; (4) licensing fees; and (5) other
10 similar expenses and costs. For purposes of this
11 subparagraph, "intangible property" includes patents,
12 patent applications, trade names, trademarks, service

17 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
18 indirectly, from a transaction with a person who
19 is subject in a foreign country or state, other
20 than a state which requires mandatory unitary
21 reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income
22 with respect to such item; or
23 (ii) any item of intangible expense or cost
24 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
25 indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based
26 on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the

SB2435 Enrolled- 410 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 following:
2 (a) the person during the same taxable
3 year paid, accrued, or incurred, the
4 intangible expense or cost to a person that is
5 not a related member, and
6 (b) the transaction giving rise to the
7 intangible expense or cost between the
8 taxpayer and the person did not have as a
9 principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois
10 income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract
11 or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms;
12 or
13 (iii) any item of intangible expense or cost
14 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
15 indirectly, from a transaction with a person if
16 the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
17 evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable;
18 or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in
19 writing to the application or use of an
20 alternative method of apportionment under Section
21 304(f);
22 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
23 Director from making any other adjustment
24 otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act
25 for any tax year beginning after the effective
26 date of this amendment provided such adjustment is

SB2435 Enrolled- 411 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 made pursuant to regulation adopted by the
2 Department and such regulations provide methods
3 and standards by which the Department will utilize
4 its authority under Section 404 of this Act;
5 (D-19) For taxable years ending on or after
6 December 31, 2008, an amount equal to the amount of
7 insurance premium expenses and costs otherwise allowed
8 as a deduction in computing base income, and that were
9 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to
10 a person who would be a member of the same unitary
11 business group but for the fact that the person is
12 prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being
13 included in the unitary business group because he or
14 she is ordinarily required to apportion business
15 income under different subsections of Section 304. The
16 addition modification required by this subparagraph
17 shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were
18 included in base income of the unitary group for the
19 same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a
20 member of the taxpayer's unitary business group
21 (including amounts included in gross income under
22 Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code
23 and amounts included in gross income under Section 78
24 of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the
25 stock of the same person to whom the premiums and costs
26 were directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or

SB2435 Enrolled- 412 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 accrued. The preceding sentence does not apply to the
2 extent that the same dividends caused a reduction to
3 the addition modification required under Section
4 203(a)(2)(D-17) or Section 203(a)(2)(D-18) of this
5 Act; .
6 (D-20) For taxable years beginning on or after

8 gross income under Section 529(c)(3)(B).
9 For the purposes of this subparagraph (D-20), a

17 income under different subsections of Section 304. The

1 reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income
2 with respect to such interest; or
3 (ii) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
4 incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
5 the taxpayer can establish, based on a
6 preponderance of the evidence, both of the
7 following:
8 (a) the person, during the same taxable
9 year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the interest
10 to a person that is not a related member, and
11 (b) the transaction giving rise to the
12 interest expense between the taxpayer and the
13 person did not have as a principal purpose the
14 avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid
15 pursuant to a contract or agreement that
16 reflects an arm's-length interest rate and
17 terms; or
18 (iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on
19 clear and convincing evidence, that the interest
20 paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract
21 or agreement entered into at arm's-length rates
22 and terms and the principal purpose for the
23 payment is not federal or Illinois tax avoidance;
24 or
25 (iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
26 incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if

SB2435 Enrolled- 461 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b

4 to the application or use of an alternative method
5 of apportionment under Section 304(f).
6 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
7 Director from making any other adjustment
8 otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act
9 for any tax year beginning after the effective
10 date of this amendment provided such adjustment is
11 made pursuant to regulation adopted by the
12 Department and such regulations provide methods
13 and standards by which the Department will utilize
14 its authority under Section 404 of this Act;
15 (G-13) An amount equal to the amount of intangible
16 expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a deduction in
17 computing base income, and that were paid, accrued, or
18 incurred, directly or indirectly, (i) for taxable
19 years ending on or after December 31, 2004, to a
20 foreign person who would be a member of the same
21 unitary business group but for the fact that the
22 foreign person's business activity outside the United
23 States is 80% or more of that person's total business
24 activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after
25 December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of
26 the same unitary business group but for the fact that

SB2435 Enrolled- 462 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27)
2 from being included in the unitary business group
3 because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion
4 business income under different subsections of Section
5 304. The addition modification required by this
6 subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that
7 dividends were included in base income of the unitary
8 group for the same taxable year and received by the
9 taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary
10 business group (including amounts included in gross
11 income pursuant to Sections 951 through 964 of the

13 income under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code)
14 with respect to the stock of the same person to whom
15 the intangible expenses and costs were directly or
16 indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The preceding
17 sentence shall not apply to the extent that the same
18 dividends caused a reduction to the addition
19 modification required under Section 203(c)(2)(G-12) of
20 this Act. As used in this subparagraph, the term
21 "intangible expenses and costs" includes: (1)
22 expenses, losses, and costs for or related to the

3 fees; and (5) other similar expenses and costs. For
4 purposes of this subparagraph, "intangible property"
5 includes patents, patent applications, trade names,
6 trademarks, service marks, copyrights, mask works,
7 trade secrets, and similar types of intangible assets.
8 This paragraph shall not apply to the following:
9 (i) any item of intangible expenses or costs
10 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
11 indirectly, from a transaction with a person who
12 is subject in a foreign country or state, other
13 than a state which requires mandatory unitary
14 reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income
15 with respect to such item; or
16 (ii) any item of intangible expense or cost
17 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
18 indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based

22 year paid, accrued, or incurred, the
23 intangible expense or cost to a person that is
24 not a related member, and
25 (b) the transaction giving rise to the
26 intangible expense or cost between the

1 taxpayer and the person did not have as a
2 principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois
3 income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract
4 or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms;
5 or
6 (iii) any item of intangible expense or cost
7 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
8 indirectly, from a transaction with a person if
9 the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
10 evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable;
11 or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in
12 writing to the application or use of an
13 alternative method of apportionment under Section
14 304(f);
15 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
16 Director from making any other adjustment
17 otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act
18 for any tax year beginning after the effective
19 date of this amendment provided such adjustment is
20 made pursuant to regulation adopted by the
21 Department and such regulations provide methods
22 and standards by which the Department will utilize
23 its authority under Section 404 of this Act;

1 as a deduction in computing base income, and that were
2 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to
3 a person who would be a member of the same unitary
4 business group but for the fact that the person is
5 prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being
6 included in the unitary business group because he or
7 she is ordinarily required to apportion business
8 income under different subsections of Section 304. The
9 addition modification required by this subparagraph
10 shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were
11 included in base income of the unitary group for the
12 same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a
13 member of the taxpayer's unitary business group
14 (including amounts included in gross income under

16 and amounts included in gross income under Section 78
17 of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the
18 stock of the same person to whom the premiums and costs
19 were directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or
20 accrued. The preceding sentence does not apply to the
21 extent that the same dividends caused a reduction to
22 the addition modification required under Section
23 203(c)(2)(G-12) or Section 203(c)(2)(G-13) of this
24 Act;
25 (G-15) An amount equal to the credit allowable to

5 preponderance of the evidence, both of the
6 following:
7 (a) the person, during the same taxable
8 year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the interest
9 to a person that is not a related member, and
10 (b) the transaction giving rise to the

19 foreign person who would be a member of the same
20 unitary business group but for the fact that the

22 States is 80% or more of that person's total business
23 activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after
24 December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of

16 sentence shall not apply to the extent that the same
17 dividends caused a reduction to the addition

21 year paid, accrued, or incurred, the
22 intangible expense or cost to a person that is
23 not a related member, and
24 (b) the transaction giving rise to the

1 principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois
2 income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract
3 or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms;
4 or
5 (iii) any item of intangible expense or cost
6 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
7 indirectly, from a transaction with a person if
8 the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
9 evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable;
10 or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in
11 writing to the application or use of an
12 alternative method of apportionment under Section
13 304(f);
14 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the

4 prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being

13 distribution from pre-1984 policyholder surplus
14 accounts as calculated under Section 815a of the

4 of corporations filing a consolidated income tax
5 return for the taxable year for federal income tax
6 purposes, taxable income determined as if such
7 corporation had filed a separate return for federal
8 income tax purposes for the taxable year and each
9 preceding taxable year for which it was a member of an
10 affiliated group. For purposes of this subparagraph,
11 the taxpayer's separate taxable income shall be
12 determined as if the election provided by Section
13 243(b)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code had been in
14 effect for all such years;
15 (F) Cooperatives. In the case of a cooperative
16 corporation or association, the taxable income of such
17 organization determined in accordance with the
18 provisions of Section 1381 through 1388 of the
19 Internal Revenue Code, but without regard to the
20 prohibition against offsetting losses from patronage
21 activities against income from nonpatronage
22 activities; except that a cooperative corporation or
23 association may make an election to follow its federal
24 income tax treatment of patronage losses and
25 nonpatronage losses. In the event such election is
26 made, such losses shall be computed and carried over

SB2435 Enrolled- 496 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 in a manner consistent with subsection (a) of Section
2 207 of this Act and apportioned by the apportionment
3 factor reported by the cooperative on its Illinois
4 income tax return filed for the taxable year in which
5 the losses are incurred. The election shall be
6 effective for all taxable years with original returns
7 due on or after the date of the election. In addition,
8 the cooperative may file an amended return or returns,
9 as allowed under this Act, to provide that the
10 election shall be effective for losses incurred or
11 carried forward for taxable years occurring prior to
12 the date of the election. Once made, the election may
13 only be revoked upon approval of the Director. The
14 Department shall adopt rules setting forth
15 requirements for documenting the elections and any
16 resulting Illinois net loss and the standards to be
17 used by the Director in evaluating requests to revoke
18 elections. Public Act 96-932 is declaratory of
19 existing law;
20 (G) Subchapter S corporations. In the case of: (i)
21 a Subchapter S corporation for which there is in
22 effect an election for the taxable year under Section
23 1362 of the Internal Revenue Code, the taxable income
24 of such corporation determined in accordance with
25 Section 1363(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, except
26 that taxable income shall take into account those

SB2435 Enrolled- 497 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 items which are required by Section 1363(b)(1) of the
2 Internal Revenue Code to be separately stated; and
3 (ii) a Subchapter S corporation for which there is in
4 effect a federal election to opt out of the provisions
5 of the Subchapter S Revision Act of 1982 and have
6 applied instead the prior federal Subchapter S rules
7 as in effect on July 1, 1982, the taxable income of
8 such corporation determined in accordance with the
9 federal Subchapter S rules as in effect on July 1,
10 1982; and
11 (H) Partnerships. In the case of a partnership,
12 taxable income determined in accordance with Section
13 703 of the Internal Revenue Code, except that taxable
14 income shall take into account those items which are
15 required by Section 703(a)(1) to be separately stated
16 but which would be taken into account by an individual
17 in calculating his taxable income.
18 (3) Recapture of business expenses on disposition of
19 asset or business. Notwithstanding any other law to the
20 contrary, if in prior years income from an asset or
21 business has been classified as business income and in a
22 later year is demonstrated to be non-business income, then
23 all expenses, without limitation, deducted in such later
24 year and in the 2 immediately preceding taxable years
25 related to that asset or business that generated the
26 non-business income shall be added back and recaptured as

SB2435 Enrolled- 498 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 business income in the year of the disposition of the
2 asset or business. Such amount shall be apportioned to
3 Illinois using the greater of the apportionment fraction
4 computed for the business under Section 304 of this Act
5 for the taxable year or the average of the apportionment
6 fractions computed for the business under Section 304 of
7 this Act for the taxable year and for the 2 immediately
8 preceding taxable years.
9 (f) Valuation limitation amount.
10 (1) In general. The valuation limitation amount
11 referred to in subsections (a)(2)(G), (c)(2)(I) and
12 (d)(2)(E) is an amount equal to:
13 (A) The sum of the pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation
14 amounts (to the extent consisting of gain reportable
15 under the provisions of Section 1245 or 1250 of the
16 Internal Revenue Code) for all property in respect of
17 which such gain was reported for the taxable year;
18 plus
19 (B) The lesser of (i) the sum of the pre-August 1,
20 1969 appreciation amounts (to the extent consisting of
21 capital gain) for all property in respect of which
22 such gain was reported for federal income tax purposes
23 for the taxable year, or (ii) the net capital gain for
24 the taxable year, reduced in either case by any amount
25 of such gain included in the amount determined under

SB2435 Enrolled- 499 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 subsection (a)(2)(F) or (c)(2)(H).
2 (2) Pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation amount.
3 (A) If the fair market value of property referred
4 to in paragraph (1) was readily ascertainable on
5 August 1, 1969, the pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation
6 amount for such property is the lesser of (i) the
7 excess of such fair market value over the taxpayer's
8 basis (for determining gain) for such property on that
9 date (determined under the Internal Revenue Code as in
10 effect on that date), or (ii) the total gain realized
11 and reportable for federal income tax purposes in
12 respect of the sale, exchange or other disposition of
13 such property.
14 (B) If the fair market value of property referred
15 to in paragraph (1) was not readily ascertainable on
16 August 1, 1969, the pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation
17 amount for such property is that amount which bears
18 the same ratio to the total gain reported in respect of
19 the property for federal income tax purposes for the
20 taxable year, as the number of full calendar months in
21 that part of the taxpayer's holding period for the
22 property ending July 31, 1969 bears to the number of
23 full calendar months in the taxpayer's entire holding
24 period for the property.
25 (C) The Department shall prescribe such
26 regulations as may be necessary to carry out the

SB2435 Enrolled- 500 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 purposes of this paragraph.
2 (g) Double deductions. Unless specifically provided
3otherwise, nothing in this Section shall permit the same item
4to be deducted more than once.
5 (h) Legislative intention. Except as expressly provided by
6this Section there shall be no modifications or limitations on
7the amounts of income, gain, loss or deduction taken into
8account in determining gross income, adjusted gross income or
9taxable income for federal income tax purposes for the taxable
10year, or in the amount of such items entering into the
11computation of base income and net income under this Act for
12such taxable year, whether in respect of property values as of
13August 1, 1969 or otherwise.

24 (a) In general. The business income of a person other than
25a resident shall be allocated to this State if such person's

SB2435 Enrolled- 511 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1business income is derived solely from this State. If a person
2other than a resident derives business income from this State
3and one or more other states, then, for tax years ending on or
4before December 30, 1998, and except as otherwise provided by
5this Section, such person's business income shall be
6apportioned to this State by multiplying the income by a
7fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of the property
8factor (if any), the payroll factor (if any) and 200% of the
9sales factor (if any), and the denominator of which is 4
10reduced by the number of factors other than the sales factor
11which have a denominator of zero and by an additional 2 if the
12sales factor has a denominator of zero. For tax years ending on
13or after December 31, 1998, and except as otherwise provided
14by this Section, persons other than residents who derive
15business income from this State and one or more other states
16shall compute their apportionment factor by weighting their
17property, payroll, and sales factors as provided in subsection
18(h) of this Section.
19 (1) Property factor.
20 (A) The property factor is a fraction, the numerator
21 of which is the average value of the person's real and
22 tangible personal property owned or rented and used in the
23 trade or business in this State during the taxable year
24 and the denominator of which is the average value of all
25 the person's real and tangible personal property owned or
26 rented and used in the trade or business during the

SB2435 Enrolled- 512 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 taxable year.
2 (B) Property owned by the person is valued at its
3 original cost. Property rented by the person is valued at
4 8 times the net annual rental rate. Net annual rental rate
5 is the annual rental rate paid by the person less any
6 annual rental rate received by the person from
7 sub-rentals.
8 (C) The average value of property shall be determined
9 by averaging the values at the beginning and ending of the
10 taxable year but the Director may require the averaging of
11 monthly values during the taxable year if reasonably
12 required to reflect properly the average value of the
13 person's property.
14 (2) Payroll factor.
15 (A) The payroll factor is a fraction, the numerator of
16 which is the total amount paid in this State during the
17 taxable year by the person for compensation, and the
18 denominator of which is the total compensation paid
19 everywhere during the taxable year.
20 (B) Compensation is paid in this State if:
21 (i) The individual's service is performed entirely
22 within this State;
23 (ii) The individual's service is performed both

25 performed without this State is incidental to the
26 individual's service performed within this State; or

1 (iii) For tax years ending prior to December 31,
2 2020, some of the service is performed within this
3 State and either the base of operations, or if there is
4 no base of operations, the place from which the
5 service is directed or controlled is within this
6 State, or the base of operations or the place from
7 which the service is directed or controlled is not in
8 any state in which some part of the service is
9 performed, but the individual's residence is in this
10 State. For tax years ending on or after December 31,
11 2020, compensation is paid in this State if some of the
12 individual's service is performed within this State,
13 the individual's service performed within this State
14 is nonincidental to the individual's service performed
15 without this State, and the individual's service is
16 performed within this State for more than 30 working
17 days during the tax year. The amount of compensation
18 paid in this State shall include the portion of the
19 individual's total compensation for services performed
20 on behalf of his or her employer during the tax year
21 which the number of working days spent within this
22 State during the tax year bears to the total number of
23 working days spent both within and without this State
24 during the tax year. For purposes of this paragraph:

26 during the tax year in which the individual

SB2435 Enrolled- 514 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b

3 duties on behalf of his or her employer (e.g.,
4 weekends, vacation days, sick days, and holidays)
5 are not working days.
6 (b) A working day is spent within this State
7 if:
8 (1) the individual performs service on
9 behalf of the employer and a greater amount of
10 time on that day is spent by the individual
11 performing duties on behalf of the employer
12 within this State, without regard to time
13 spent traveling, than is spent performing
14 duties on behalf of the employer without this
15 State; or
16 (2) the only service the individual
17 performs on behalf of the employer on that day
18 is traveling to a destination within this
19 State, and the individual arrives on that day.
20 (c) Working days spent within this State do
21 not include any day in which the employee is
22 performing services in this State during a

12 produced within that state, divided by the total
13 of such gross receipts for all states in which the
14 patent is utilized.
15 (II) A copyright is utilized in a state to the
16 extent that printing or other publication
17 originates in the state. If a copyright is

14 gross receipts governed by paragraph (B-7) of this item
15 (3), may be included in the numerator or denominator of
16 the sales factor only if gross receipts from licenses,
17 sales, or other disposition of such items comprise more
18 than 50% of the taxpayer's total gross receipts included
19 in gross income during the tax year and during each of the
20 2 immediately preceding tax years; provided that, when a

7 to the books and records of the taxpayer or by
8 reference to published rating statistics provided the
9 method used by the taxpayer is consistently used from
10 year to year for this purpose and fairly represents
11 the taxpayer's activity in this State.
12 "Broadcast" or "broadcasting" or "broadcasting
13 services" means the transmission or provision of film
14 or radio programming, whether through the public
15 airwaves, by cable, by direct or indirect satellite

18 system.
19 "Film" or "film programming" means the broadcast
20 on television of any and all performances, events, or
21 productions, including, but not limited to, news,
22 sporting events, plays, stories, or other literary,
23 commercial, educational, or artistic works, either
24 live or through the use of video tape, disc, or any

SB2435 Enrolled- 536 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 constitute separate "film" notwithstanding that the
2 series relates to the same principal subject and is
3 produced during one or more tax periods.
4 "Radio" or "radio programming" means the broadcast
5 on radio of any and all performances, events, or
6 productions, including, but not limited to, news,
7 sporting events, plays, stories, or other literary,
8 commercial, educational, or artistic works, either
9 live or through the use of an audio tape, disc, or any
10 other format or medium. Each episode in a series of
11 radio programming produced for radio broadcast shall
12 constitute a separate "radio programming"
13 notwithstanding that the series relates to the same
14 principal subject and is produced during one or more
15 tax periods.
16 (i) In the case of advertising revenue from
17 broadcasting, the customer is the advertiser and
18 the service is received in this State if the
19 commercial domicile of the advertiser is in this
20 State.
21 (ii) In the case where film or radio
22 programming is broadcast by a station, a network,
23 or a cable system for a fee or other remuneration
24 received from the recipient of the broadcast, the
25 portion of the service that is received in this
26 State is measured by the portion of the recipients

SB2435 Enrolled- 537 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 of the broadcast located in this State.
2 Accordingly, the fee or other remuneration for
3 such service that is included in the Illinois
4 numerator of the sales factor is the total of
5 those fees or other remuneration received from
6 recipients in Illinois. For purposes of this
7 paragraph, a taxpayer may determine the location
8 of the recipients of its broadcast using the
9 address of the recipient shown in its contracts
10 with the recipient or using the billing address of
11 the recipient in the taxpayer's records.
12 (iii) In the case where film or radio
13 programming is broadcast by a station, a network,
14 or a cable system for a fee or other remuneration
15 from the person providing the programming, the
16 portion of the broadcast service that is received
17 by such station, network, or cable system in this
18 State is measured by the portion of recipients of
19 the broadcast located in this State. Accordingly,
20 the amount of revenue related to such an
21 arrangement that is included in the Illinois
22 numerator of the sales factor is the total fee or
23 other total remuneration from the person providing
24 the programming related to that broadcast
25 multiplied by the Illinois audience factor for
26 that broadcast.

4 exchange for a fee or other remuneration from that
5 customer the broadcasting service is received at
6 the location of the office of the customer from
7 which the services were ordered in the regular
8 course of the customer's trade or business.
9 Accordingly, in such a case the revenue derived by
10 the taxpayer that is included in the taxpayer's
11 Illinois numerator of the sales factor is the
12 revenue from such customers who receive the
13 broadcasting service in Illinois.
14 (v) In the case where film or radio
15 programming is provided by a taxpayer that is not
16 a network or station to another person for
17 broadcasting in exchange for a fee or other
18 remuneration from that person, the broadcasting
19 service is received at the location of the office
20 of the customer from which the services were
21 ordered in the regular course of the customer's
22 trade or business. Accordingly, in such a case the
23 revenue derived by the taxpayer that is included
24 in the taxpayer's Illinois numerator of the sales
25 factor is the revenue from such customers who
26 receive the broadcasting service in Illinois.

13 (iii) In the case of interest, net gains (but not

17 (a) in the case of a taxpayer who is a dealer
18 in the item of intangible personal property within
19 the meaning of Section 475 of the Internal Revenue
20 Code, the income or gain is received from a
21 customer in this State. For purposes of this
22 subparagraph, a customer is in this State if the
23 customer is an individual, trust or estate who is
24 a resident of this State and, for all other
25 customers, if the customer's commercial domicile
26 is in this State. Unless the dealer has actual

SB2435 Enrolled- 541 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 knowledge of the residence or commercial domicile
2 of a customer during a taxable year, the customer

5 the records of the dealer, is in this State; or
6 (b) in all other cases, if the

12 activity of the taxpayer is performed within this
13 State than in any other state, based on
14 performance costs.
15 (iv) Sales of services are in this State if the
16 services are received in this State. For the purposes
17 of this section, gross receipts from the performance
18 of services provided to a corporation, partnership, or
19 trust may only be attributed to a state where that
20 corporation, partnership, or trust has a fixed place
21 of business. If the state where the services are
22 received is not readily determinable or is a state
23 where the corporation, partnership, or trust receiving
24 the service does not have a fixed place of business,
25 the services shall be deemed to be received at the
26 location of the office of the customer from which the

SB2435 Enrolled- 542 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 services were ordered in the regular course of the
2 customer's trade or business. If the ordering office
3 cannot be determined, the services shall be deemed to
4 be received at the office of the customer to which the
5 services are billed. If the taxpayer is not taxable in
6 the state in which the services are received, the sale
7 must be excluded from both the numerator and the
8 denominator of the sales factor. The Department shall
9 adopt rules prescribing where specific types of
10 service are received, including, but not limited to,
11 publishing, and utility service.
12 (D) For taxable years ending on or after December 31,

14 in the numerator or denominator of the sales factor:
15 dividends; amounts included under Section 78 of the
16 Internal Revenue Code; and Subpart F income as defined in
17 Section 952 of the Internal Revenue Code. No inference
18 shall be drawn from the enactment of this paragraph (D) in
19 construing this Section for taxable years ending before
20 December 31, 1995.
21 (E) Paragraphs (B-1) and (B-2) shall apply to tax
22 years ending on or after December 31, 1999, provided that
23 a taxpayer may elect to apply the provisions of these
24 paragraphs to prior tax years. Such election shall be made
25 in the form and manner prescribed by the Department, shall
26 be irrevocable, and shall apply to all tax years; provided

SB2435 Enrolled- 543 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 that, if a taxpayer's Illinois income tax liability for
2 any tax year, as assessed under Section 903 prior to
3 January 1, 1999, was computed in a manner contrary to the
4 provisions of paragraphs (B-1) or (B-2), no refund shall
5 be payable to the taxpayer for that tax year to the extent
6 such refund is the result of applying the provisions of
7 paragraph (B-1) or (B-2) retroactively. In the case of a
8 unitary business group, such election shall apply to all
9 members of such group for every tax year such group is in
10 existence, but shall not apply to any taxpayer for any
11 period during which that taxpayer is not a member of such
12 group.
13 (b) Insurance companies.
14 (1) In general. Except as otherwise provided by
15 paragraph (2), business income of an insurance company for
16 a taxable year shall be apportioned to this State by
17 multiplying such income by a fraction, the numerator of
18 which is the direct premiums written for insurance upon
19 property or risk in this State, and the denominator of
20 which is the direct premiums written for insurance upon
21 property or risk everywhere. For purposes of this
22 subsection, the term "direct premiums written" means the
23 total amount of direct premiums written, assessments and
24 annuity considerations as reported for the taxable year on
25 the annual statement filed by the company with the
26 Illinois Director of Insurance in the form approved by the

SB2435 Enrolled- 544 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 National Convention of Insurance Commissioners or such
2 other form as may be prescribed in lieu thereof.
3 (2) Reinsurance. If the principal source of premiums
4 written by an insurance company consists of premiums for
5 reinsurance accepted by it, the business income of such
6 company shall be apportioned to this State by multiplying
7 such income by a fraction, the numerator of which is the
8 sum of (i) direct premiums written for insurance upon
9 property or risk in this State, plus (ii) premiums written
10 for reinsurance accepted in respect of property or risk in
11 this State, and the denominator of which is the sum of
12 (iii) direct premiums written for insurance upon property
13 or risk everywhere, plus (iv) premiums written for
14 reinsurance accepted in respect of property or risk
15 everywhere. For purposes of this paragraph, premiums
16 written for reinsurance accepted in respect of property or
17 risk in this State, whether or not otherwise determinable,
18 may, at the election of the company, be determined on the
19 basis of the proportion which premiums written for
20 reinsurance accepted from companies commercially domiciled
21 in Illinois bears to premiums written for reinsurance
22 accepted from all sources, or, alternatively, in the
23 proportion which the sum of the direct premiums written
24 for insurance upon property or risk in this State by each
25 ceding company from which reinsurance is accepted bears to
26 the sum of the total direct premiums written by each such

SB2435 Enrolled- 545 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 ceding company for the taxable year. The election made by
2 a company under this paragraph for its first taxable year
3 ending on or after December 31, 2011, shall be binding for
4 that company for that taxable year and for all subsequent
5 taxable years, and may be altered only with the written
6 permission of the Department, which shall not be
7 unreasonably withheld.
8 (c) Financial organizations.
9 (1) In general. For taxable years ending before
10 December 31, 2008, business income of a financial
11 organization shall be apportioned to this State by
12 multiplying such income by a fraction, the numerator of
13 which is its business income from sources within this
14 State, and the denominator of which is its business income
15 from all sources. For the purposes of this subsection, the
16 business income of a financial organization from sources
17 within this State is the sum of the amounts referred to in
18 subparagraphs (A) through (E) following, but excluding the
19 adjusted income of an international banking facility as
20 determined in paragraph (2):
21 (A) Fees, commissions or other compensation for
22 financial services rendered within this State;
23 (B) Gross profits from trading in stocks, bonds or
24 other securities managed within this State;
25 (C) Dividends, and interest from Illinois

2 business maintained within this State for carrying
3 debit balances of margin accounts, without deduction
4 of any costs incurred in carrying such accounts; and
5 (E) Any other gross income resulting from the
6 operation as a financial organization within this
7 State.
8 In computing the amounts referred to in paragraphs (A)
9 through (E) of this subsection, any amount received by a
10 member of an affiliated group (determined under Section
11 1504(a) of the Internal Revenue Code but without reference
12 to whether any such corporation is an "includible
13 corporation" under Section 1504(b) of the Internal Revenue
14 Code) from another member of such group shall be included
15 only to the extent such amount exceeds expenses of the
16 recipient directly related thereto.
17 (2) International Banking Facility. For taxable years
18 ending before December 31, 2008:
19 (A) Adjusted Income. The adjusted income of an
20 international banking facility is its income reduced
21 by the amount of the floor amount.
22 (B) Floor Amount. The floor amount shall be the
23 amount, if any, determined by multiplying the income
24 of the international banking facility by a fraction,
25 not greater than one, which is determined as follows:
26 (i) The numerator shall be:

SB2435 Enrolled- 547 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 The average aggregate, determined on a
2 quarterly basis, of the financial organization's
3 loans to banks in foreign countries, to foreign
4 domiciled borrowers (except where secured
5 primarily by real estate) and to foreign
6 governments and other foreign official
7 institutions, as reported for its branches,
8 agencies and offices within the state on its
9 "Consolidated Report of Condition", Schedule A,
10 Lines 2.c., 5.b., and 7.a., which was filed with
11 the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and
12 other regulatory authorities, for the year 1980,

14 The average aggregate, determined on a
15 quarterly basis, of such loans (other than loans
16 of an international banking facility), as reported
17 by the financial institution for its branches,
18 agencies and offices within the state, on the
19 corresponding Schedule and lines of the
20 Consolidated Report of Condition for the current
21 taxable year, provided, however, that in no case
22 shall the amount determined in this clause (the
23 subtrahend) exceed the amount determined in the
24 preceding clause (the minuend); and
25 (ii) the denominator shall be the average
26 aggregate, determined on a quarterly basis, of the

SB2435 Enrolled- 548 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 international banking facility's loans to banks in
2 foreign countries, to foreign domiciled borrowers
3 (except where secured primarily by real estate)
4 and to foreign governments and other foreign
5 official institutions, which were recorded in its
6 financial accounts for the current taxable year.
7 (C) Change to Consolidated Report of Condition and
8 in Qualification. In the event the Consolidated Report
9 of Condition which is filed with the Federal Deposit
10 Insurance Corporation and other regulatory authorities
11 is altered so that the information required for

13 A, lines 2.c., 5.b. and 7.a., the financial
14 institution shall notify the Department and the
15 Department may, by regulations or otherwise, prescribe
16 or authorize the use of an alternative source for such
17 information. The financial institution shall also
18 notify the Department should its international banking
19 facility fail to qualify as such, in whole or in part,
20 or should there be any amendment or change to the
21 Consolidated Report of Condition, as originally filed,
22 to the extent such amendment or change alters the
23 information used in determining the floor amount.
24 (3) For taxable years ending on or after December 31,
25 2008, the business income of a financial organization
26 shall be apportioned to this State by multiplying such

SB2435 Enrolled- 549 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 income by a fraction, the numerator of which is its gross
2 receipts from sources in this State or otherwise
3 attributable to this State's marketplace and the
4 denominator of which is its gross receipts everywhere
5 during the taxable year. "Gross receipts" for purposes of
6 this subparagraph (3) means gross income, including net
7 taxable gain on disposition of assets, including
8 securities and money market instruments, when derived from
9 transactions and activities in the regular course of the
10 financial organization's trade or business. The following
11 examples are illustrative:
12 (i) Receipts from the lease or rental of real or
13 tangible personal property are in this State if the
14 property is located in this State during the rental
15 period. Receipts from the lease or rental of tangible
16 personal property that is characteristically moving
17 property, including, but not limited to, motor
18 vehicles, rolling stock, aircraft, vessels, or mobile
19 equipment are from sources in this State to the extent
20 that the property is used in this State.
21 (ii) Interest income, commissions, fees, gains on
22 disposition, and other receipts from assets in the
23 nature of loans that are secured primarily by real
24 estate or tangible personal property are from sources
25 in this State if the security is located in this State.
26 (iii) Interest income, commissions, fees, gains on

SB2435 Enrolled- 550 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 disposition, and other receipts from consumer loans
2 that are not secured by real or tangible personal
3 property are from sources in this State if the debtor
4 is a resident of this State.
5 (iv) Interest income, commissions, fees, gains on
6 disposition, and other receipts from commercial loans
7 and installment obligations that are not secured by
8 real or tangible personal property are from sources in
9 this State if the proceeds of the loan are to be
10 applied in this State. If it cannot be determined
11 where the funds are to be applied, the income and
12 receipts are from sources in this State if the office
13 of the borrower from which the loan was negotiated in
14 the regular course of business is located in this
15 State. If the location of this office cannot be
16 determined, the income and receipts shall be excluded
17 from the numerator and denominator of the sales
18 factor.
19 (v) Interest income, fees, gains on disposition,
20 service charges, merchant discount income, and other
21 receipts from credit card receivables are from sources
22 in this State if the card charges are regularly billed
23 to a customer in this State.
24 (vi) Receipts from the performance of services,
25 including, but not limited to, fiduciary, advisory,
26 and brokerage services, are in this State if the

SB2435 Enrolled- 551 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 services are received in this State within the meaning
2 of subparagraph (a)(3)(C-5)(iv) of this Section.
3 (vii) Receipts from the issuance of travelers
4 checks and money orders are from sources in this State
5 if the checks and money orders are issued from a
6 location within this State.
7 (viii) Receipts from investment assets and
8 activities and trading assets and activities are
9 included in the receipts factor as follows:
10 (1) Interest, dividends, net gains (but not
11 less than zero) and other income from investment
12 assets and activities from trading assets and
13 activities shall be included in the receipts
14 factor. Investment assets and activities and
15 trading assets and activities include, but are not
16 limited to: investment securities; trading account
17 assets; federal funds; securities purchased and
18 sold under agreements to resell or repurchase;
19 options; futures contracts; forward contracts;
20 notional principal contracts such as swaps;
21 equities; and foreign currency transactions. With
22 respect to the investment and trading assets and
23 activities described in subparagraphs (A) and (B)
24 of this paragraph, the receipts factor shall
25 include the amounts described in such
26 subparagraphs.

SB2435 Enrolled- 552 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 (A) The receipts factor shall include the
2 amount by which interest from federal funds
3 sold and securities purchased under resale
4 agreements exceeds interest expense on federal
5 funds purchased and securities sold under
6 repurchase agreements.
7 (B) The receipts factor shall include the
8 amount by which interest, dividends, gains and
9 other income from trading assets and
10 activities, including, but not limited to,
11 assets and activities in the matched book, in
12 the arbitrage book, and foreign currency
13 transactions, exceed amounts paid in lieu of
14 interest, amounts paid in lieu of dividends,
15 and losses from such assets and activities.
16 (2) The numerator of the receipts factor
17 includes interest, dividends, net gains (but not
18 less than zero), and other income from investment
19 assets and activities and from trading assets and
20 activities described in paragraph (1) of this
21 subsection that are attributable to this State.
22 (A) The amount of interest, dividends, net
23 gains (but not less than zero), and other
24 income from investment assets and activities
25 in the investment account to be attributed to
26 this State and included in the numerator is

SB2435 Enrolled- 553 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 determined by multiplying all such income from
2 such assets and activities by a fraction, the
3 numerator of which is the gross income from
4 such assets and activities which are properly
5 assigned to a fixed place of business of the
6 taxpayer within this State and the denominator
7 of which is the gross income from all such
8 assets and activities.
9 (B) The amount of interest from federal
10 funds sold and purchased and from securities
11 purchased under resale agreements and
12 securities sold under repurchase agreements
13 attributable to this State and included in the
14 numerator is determined by multiplying the
15 amount described in subparagraph (A) of
16 paragraph (1) of this subsection from such
17 funds and such securities by a fraction, the
18 numerator of which is the gross income from
19 such funds and such securities which are
20 properly assigned to a fixed place of business
21 of the taxpayer within this State and the
22 denominator of which is the gross income from
23 all such funds and such securities.
24 (C) The amount of interest, dividends,
25 gains, and other income from trading assets
26 and activities, including, but not limited to,

SB2435 Enrolled- 554 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 assets and activities in the matched book, in
2 the arbitrage book and foreign currency
3 transactions (but excluding amounts described
4 in subparagraphs (A) or (B) of this
5 paragraph), attributable to this State and
6 included in the numerator is determined by
7 multiplying the amount described in
8 subparagraph (B) of paragraph (1) of this
9 subsection by a fraction, the numerator of
10 which is the gross income from such trading
11 assets and activities which are properly
12 assigned to a fixed place of business of the
13 taxpayer within this State and the denominator
14 of which is the gross income from all such
15 assets and activities.
16 (D) Properly assigned, for purposes of
17 this paragraph (2) of this subsection, means
18 the investment or trading asset or activity is
19 assigned to the fixed place of business with
20 which it has a preponderance of substantive
21 contacts. An investment or trading asset or
22 activity assigned by the taxpayer to a fixed
23 place of business without the State shall be
24 presumed to have been properly assigned if:
25 (i) the taxpayer has assigned, in the
26 regular course of its business, such asset

SB2435 Enrolled- 555 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 or activity on its records to a fixed
2 place of business consistent with federal
3 or state regulatory requirements;
4 (ii) such assignment on its records is
5 based upon substantive contacts of the
6 asset or activity to such fixed place of
7 business; and
8 (iii) the taxpayer uses such records
9 reflecting assignment of such assets or
10 activities for the filing of all state and
11 local tax returns for which an assignment
12 of such assets or activities to a fixed
13 place of business is required.
14 (E) The presumption of proper assignment
15 of an investment or trading asset or activity
16 provided in subparagraph (D) of paragraph (2)
17 of this subsection may be rebutted upon a
18 showing by the Department, supported by a
19 preponderance of the evidence, that the
20 preponderance of substantive contacts
21 regarding such asset or activity did not occur
22 at the fixed place of business to which it was
23 assigned on the taxpayer's records. If the
24 fixed place of business that has a
25 preponderance of substantive contacts cannot
26 be determined for an investment or trading

1 asset or activity to which the presumption in
2 subparagraph (D) of paragraph (2) of this
3 subsection does not apply or with respect to
4 which that presumption has been rebutted, that
5 asset or activity is properly assigned to the
6 state in which the taxpayer's commercial
7 domicile is located. For purposes of this
8 subparagraph (E), it shall be presumed,
9 subject to rebuttal, that taxpayer's
10 commercial domicile is in the state of the
11 United States or the District of Columbia to
12 which the greatest number of employees are
13 regularly connected with the management of the
14 investment or trading income or out of which
15 they are working, irrespective of where the
16 services of such employees are performed, as
17 of the last day of the taxable year.

20 (c-1) Federally regulated exchanges. For taxable years
21ending on or after December 31, 2012, business income of a
22federally regulated exchange shall, at the option of the
23federally regulated exchange, be apportioned to this State by
24multiplying such income by a fraction, the numerator of which
25is its business income from sources within this State, and the
26denominator of which is its business income from all sources.

SB2435 Enrolled- 557 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1For purposes of this subsection, the business income within
2this State of a federally regulated exchange is the sum of the
3following:
4 (1) Receipts attributable to transactions executed on
5 a physical trading floor if that physical trading floor is
6 located in this State.
7 (2) Receipts attributable to all other matching,
8 execution, or clearing transactions, including without
9 limitation receipts from the provision of matching,
10 execution, or clearing services to another entity,
11 multiplied by (i) for taxable years ending on or after
12 December 31, 2012 but before December 31, 2013, 63.77%;
13 and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after December 31,
14 2013, 27.54%.
15 (3) All other receipts not governed by subparagraphs
16 (1) or (2) of this subsection (c-1), to the extent the
17 receipts would be characterized as "sales in this State"
18 under item (3) of subsection (a) of this Section.
19 "Federally regulated exchange" means (i) a "registered
20entity" within the meaning of 7 U.S.C. Section 1a(40)(A), (B),
21or (C), (ii) an "exchange" or "clearing agency" within the
22meaning of 15 U.S.C. Section 78c (a)(1) or (23), (iii) any such
23entities regulated under any successor regulatory structure to
24the foregoing, and (iv) all taxpayers who are members of the
25same unitary business group as a federally regulated exchange,
26determined without regard to the prohibition in Section

SB2435 Enrolled- 558 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
11501(a)(27) of this Act against including in a unitary
2business group taxpayers who are ordinarily required to
3apportion business income under different subsections of this
4Section; provided that this subparagraph (iv) shall apply only
5if 50% or more of the business receipts of the unitary business
6group determined by application of this subparagraph (iv) for
7the taxable year are attributable to the matching, execution,
8or clearing of transactions conducted by an entity described
9in subparagraph (i), (ii), or (iii) of this paragraph.
10 In no event shall the Illinois apportionment percentage
11computed in accordance with this subsection (c-1) for any
12taxpayer for any tax year be less than the Illinois
13apportionment percentage computed under this subsection (c-1)
14for that taxpayer for the first full tax year ending on or
15after December 31, 2013 for which this subsection (c-1)
16applied to the taxpayer.
17 (d) Transportation services. For taxable years ending
18before December 31, 2008, business income derived from
19furnishing transportation services shall be apportioned to
20this State in accordance with paragraphs (1) and (2):
21 (1) Such business income (other than that derived from
22 transportation by pipeline) shall be apportioned to this
23 State by multiplying such income by a fraction, the
24 numerator of which is the revenue miles of the person in
25 this State, and the denominator of which is the revenue
26 miles of the person everywhere. For purposes of this

SB2435 Enrolled- 559 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 paragraph, a revenue mile is the transportation of 1
2 passenger or 1 net ton of freight the distance of 1 mile
3 for a consideration. Where a person is engaged in the
4 transportation of both passengers and freight, the
5 fraction above referred to shall be determined by means of
6 an average of the passenger revenue mile fraction and the
7 freight revenue mile fraction, weighted to reflect the
8 person's
9 (A) relative railway operating income from total
10 passenger and total freight service, as reported to
11 the Interstate Commerce Commission, in the case of
12 transportation by railroad, and
13 (B) relative gross receipts from passenger and
14 freight transportation, in case of transportation
15 other than by railroad.
16 (2) Such business income derived from transportation
17 by pipeline shall be apportioned to this State by
18 multiplying such income by a fraction, the numerator of
19 which is the revenue miles of the person in this State, and
20 the denominator of which is the revenue miles of the
21 person everywhere. For the purposes of this paragraph, a
22 revenue mile is the transportation by pipeline of 1 barrel
23 of oil, 1,000 cubic feet of gas, or of any specified
24 quantity of any other substance, the distance of 1 mile
25 for a consideration.
26 (3) For taxable years ending on or after December 31,

SB2435 Enrolled- 560 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 2008, business income derived from providing
2 transportation services other than airline services shall
3 be apportioned to this State by using a fraction, (a) the
4 numerator of which shall be (i) all receipts from any
5 movement or shipment of people, goods, mail, oil, gas, or
6 any other substance (other than by airline) that both
7 originates and terminates in this State, plus (ii) that
8 portion of the person's gross receipts from movements or
9 shipments of people, goods, mail, oil, gas, or any other
10 substance (other than by airline) that originates in one
11 state or jurisdiction and terminates in another state or
12 jurisdiction, that is determined by the ratio that the
13 miles traveled in this State bears to total miles
14 everywhere and (b) the denominator of which shall be all
15 revenue derived from the movement or shipment of people,
16 goods, mail, oil, gas, or any other substance (other than
17 by airline). Where a taxpayer is engaged in the
18 transportation of both passengers and freight, the
19 fraction above referred to shall first be determined
20 separately for passenger miles and freight miles. Then an
21 average of the passenger miles fraction and the freight
22 miles fraction shall be weighted to reflect the
23 taxpayer's:
24 (A) relative railway operating income from total
25 passenger and total freight service, as reported to
26 the Surface Transportation Board, in the case of

SB2435 Enrolled- 561 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 transportation by railroad; and
2 (B) relative gross receipts from passenger and
3 freight transportation, in case of transportation
4 other than by railroad.
5 (4) For taxable years ending on or after December 31,
6 2008, business income derived from furnishing airline
7 transportation services shall be apportioned to this State
8 by multiplying such income by a fraction, the numerator of
9 which is the revenue miles of the person in this State, and
10 the denominator of which is the revenue miles of the
11 person everywhere. For purposes of this paragraph, a
12 revenue mile is the transportation of one passenger or one
13 net ton of freight the distance of one mile for a
14 consideration. If a person is engaged in the
15 transportation of both passengers and freight, the
16 fraction above referred to shall be determined by means of
17 an average of the passenger revenue mile fraction and the
18 freight revenue mile fraction, weighted to reflect the
19 person's relative gross receipts from passenger and
20 freight airline transportation.
21 (e) Combined apportionment. Where 2 or more persons are
22engaged in a unitary business as described in subsection
23(a)(27) of Section 1501, a part of which is conducted in this
24State by one or more members of the group, the business income
25attributable to this State by any such member or members shall
26be apportioned by means of the combined apportionment method.

SB2435 Enrolled- 562 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 (f) Alternative allocation. If the allocation and
2apportionment provisions of subsections (a) through (e) and of
3subsection (h) do not, for taxable years ending before
4December 31, 2008, fairly represent the extent of a person's
5business activity in this State, or, for taxable years ending
6on or after December 31, 2008, fairly represent the market for
7the person's goods, services, or other sources of business
8income, the person may petition for, or the Director may,
9without a petition, permit or require, in respect of all or any
10part of the person's business activity, if reasonable:
11 (1) Separate accounting;
12 (2) The exclusion of any one or more factors;
13 (3) The inclusion of one or more additional factors
14 which will fairly represent the person's business
15 activities or market in this State; or
16 (4) The employment of any other method to effectuate
17 an equitable allocation and apportionment of the person's
18 business income.
19 (g) Cross reference. For allocation of business income by
20residents, see Section 301(a).
21 (h) For tax years ending on or after December 31, 1998, the
22apportionment factor of persons who apportion their business
23income to this State under subsection (a) shall be equal to:
24 (1) for tax years ending on or after December 31, 1998
25 and before December 31, 1999, 16 2/3% of the property
26 factor plus 16 2/3% of the payroll factor plus 66 2/3% of

SB2435 Enrolled- 563 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 the sales factor;
2 (2) for tax years ending on or after December 31, 1999
3 and before December 31, 2000, 8 1/3% of the property
4 factor plus 8 1/3% of the payroll factor plus 83 1/3% of
5 the sales factor;
6 (3) for tax years ending on or after December 31,
7 2000, the sales factor.
8If, in any tax year ending on or after December 31, 1998 and
9before December 31, 2000, the denominator of the payroll,
10property, or sales factor is zero, the apportionment factor
11computed in paragraph (1) or (2) of this subsection for that
12year shall be divided by an amount equal to 100% minus the
13percentage weight given to each factor whose denominator is
14equal to zero.

19 (a) In General. Every employer maintaining an office or
20transacting business within this State and required under the
21provisions of the Internal Revenue Code to withhold a tax on:
22 (1) compensation paid in this State (as determined
23 under Section 304(a)(2)(B)) to an individual; or
24 (2) payments described in subsection (b) shall deduct
25 and withhold from such compensation for each payroll

SB2435 Enrolled- 564 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 period (as defined in Section 3401 of the Internal Revenue
2 Code) an amount equal to the amount by which such
3 individual's compensation exceeds the proportionate part
4 of this withholding exemption (computed as provided in
5 Section 702) attributable to the payroll period for which
6 such compensation is payable multiplied by a percentage
7 equal to the percentage tax rate for individuals provided
8 in subsection (b) of Section 201.
9 (a-5) Withholding from nonresident employees. For taxable
10years beginning on or after January 1, 2020, for purposes of
11determining compensation paid in this State under paragraph
12(B) of item (2) of subsection (a) of Section 304:
13 (1) If an employer maintains a time and attendance
14 system that tracks where employees perform services on a
15 daily basis, then data from the time and attendance system
16 shall be used. For purposes of this paragraph, time and
17 attendance system means a system:
18 (A) in which the employee is required, on a
19 contemporaneous basis, to record the work location for
20 every day worked outside of the State where the
21 employment duties are primarily performed; and
22 (B) that is designed to allow the employer to
23 allocate the employee's wages for income tax purposes
24 among all states in which the employee performs
25 services.
26 (2) In all other cases, the employer shall obtain a

SB2435 Enrolled- 565 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 written statement from the employee of the number of days
2 reasonably expected to be spent performing services in
3 this State during the taxable year. Absent the employer's
4 actual knowledge of fraud or gross negligence by the
5 employee in making the determination or collusion between
6 the employer and the employee to evade tax, the
7 certification so made by the employee and maintained in
8 the employer's books and records shall be prima facie
9 evidence and constitute a rebuttable presumption of the
10 number of days spent performing services in this State.
11 (b) Payment to Residents. Any payment (including
12compensation, but not including a payment from which
13withholding is required under Section 710 of this Act) to a
14resident by a payor maintaining an office or transacting
15business within this State (including any agency, officer, or
16employee of this State or of any political subdivision of this
17State) and on which withholding of tax is required under the
18provisions of the Internal Revenue Code shall be deemed to be
19compensation paid in this State by an employer to an employee

21extent such payment is included in the recipient's base income
22and not subjected to withholding by another state.
23Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, no amount
24shall be withheld from unemployment insurance benefit payments
25made to an individual pursuant to the Unemployment Insurance
26Act unless the individual has voluntarily elected the

SB2435 Enrolled- 566 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1withholding pursuant to rules promulgated by the Director of
2Employment Security.
3 (c) Special Definitions. Withholding shall be considered
4required under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code to
5the extent the Internal Revenue Code either requires
6withholding or allows for voluntary withholding the payor and
7recipient have entered into such a voluntary withholding
8agreement. For the purposes of Article 7 and Section 1002(c)
9the term "employer" includes any payor who is required to
10withhold tax pursuant to this Section.
11 (d) Reciprocal Exemption. The Director may enter into an
12agreement with the taxing authorities of any state which
13imposes a tax on or measured by income to provide that
14compensation paid in such state to residents of this State
15shall be exempt from withholding of such tax; in such case, any
16compensation paid in this State to residents of such state
17shall be exempt from withholding. All reciprocal agreements
18shall be subject to the requirements of Section 2505-575 of
19the Department of Revenue Law (20 ILCS 2505/2505-575).
20 (e) Notwithstanding subsection (a)(2) of this Section, no
21withholding is required on payments for which withholding is
22required under Section 3405 or 3406 of the Internal Revenue
23Code.

12or shall be reduced by the amount of the rate decrease, as the
13case may be, or (ii) in the case of a limiting rate increase,
14the limiting rate shall be equal to the rate set forth in the
15proposition approved by the voters for each of the years
16specified in the proposition, after which the limiting rate of
17the taxing district shall be calculated as otherwise provided.
18In the case of a taxing district that obtained referendum
19approval for an increased limiting rate on March 20, 2012, the
20limiting rate for tax year 2012 shall be the rate that
21generates the approximate total amount of taxes extendable for
22that tax year, as set forth in the proposition approved by the
23voters; this rate shall be the final rate applied by the county
24clerk for the aggregate of all capped funds of the district for
25tax year 2012.

10 As soon as may be after the first day of each month, the
11Department of Transportation shall allot to each municipality
12its share of the amount apportioned to the several
13municipalities which shall be in proportion to the population
14of such municipalities as determined by the last preceding
15municipal census if conducted by the Federal Government or
16Federal census. If territory is annexed to any municipality
17subsequent to the time of the last preceding census the
18corporate authorities of such municipality may cause a census
19to be taken of such annexed territory and the population so
20ascertained for such territory shall be added to the
21population of the municipality as determined by the last
22preceding census for the purpose of determining the allotment
23for that municipality. If the population of any municipality
24was not determined by the last Federal census preceding any
25apportionment, the apportionment to such municipality shall be
26in accordance with any census taken by such municipality. Any

2certified to the Department of Transportation by the clerk of
3such municipality, and the accuracy thereof shall be subject
4to approval of the Department which may make such corrections
5as it ascertains to be necessary.
6 As soon as may be after the first day of each month, the
7Department of Transportation shall allot to each county its
8share of the amount apportioned to the several counties of the
9State as herein provided. Each allotment to the several
10counties having less than 1,000,000 inhabitants shall be in
11proportion to the amount of motor vehicle license fees
12received from the residents of such counties, respectively,
13during the preceding calendar year. The Secretary of State
14shall, on or before April 15 of each year, transmit to the
15Department of Transportation a full and complete report
16showing the amount of motor vehicle license fees received from
17the residents of each county, respectively, during the
18preceding calendar year. The Department of Transportation
19shall, each month, use for allotment purposes the last such
20report received from the Secretary of State.
21 As soon as may be after the first day of each month, the
22Department of Transportation shall allot to the several
23counties their share of the amount apportioned for the use of
24road districts. The allotment shall be apportioned among the
25several counties in the State in the proportion which the
26total mileage of township or district roads in the respective

SB2435 Enrolled- 626 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1counties bears to the total mileage of all township and
2district roads in the State. Funds allotted to the respective
3counties for the use of road districts therein shall be
4allocated to the several road districts in the county in the
5proportion which the total mileage of such township or
6district roads in the respective road districts bears to the
7total mileage of all such township or district roads in the
8county. After July 1 of any year prior to 2011, no allocation
9shall be made for any road district unless it levied a tax for
10road and bridge purposes in an amount which will require the
11extension of such tax against the taxable property in any such
12road district at a rate of not less than either .08% of the
13value thereof, based upon the assessment for the year
14immediately prior to the year in which such tax was levied and
15as equalized by the Department of Revenue or, in DuPage
16County, an amount equal to or greater than $12,000 per mile of
17road under the jurisdiction of the road district, whichever is
18less. Beginning July 1, 2011 and each July 1 thereafter, an
19allocation shall be made for any road district if it levied a
20tax for road and bridge purposes. In counties other than
21DuPage County, if the amount of the tax levy requires the
22extension of the tax against the taxable property in the road
23district at a rate that is less than 0.08% of the value
24thereof, based upon the assessment for the year immediately
25prior to the year in which the tax was levied and as equalized
26by the Department of Revenue, then the amount of the

SB2435 Enrolled- 627 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1allocation for that road district shall be a percentage of the
2maximum allocation equal to the percentage obtained by
3dividing the rate extended by the district by 0.08%. In DuPage
4County, if the amount of the tax levy requires the extension of
5the tax against the taxable property in the road district at a
6rate that is less than the lesser of (i) 0.08% of the value of
7the taxable property in the road district, based upon the
8assessment for the year immediately prior to the year in which
9such tax was levied and as equalized by the Department of
10Revenue, or (ii) a rate that will yield an amount equal to
11$12,000 per mile of road under the jurisdiction of the road
12district, then the amount of the allocation for the road
13district shall be a percentage of the maximum allocation equal
14to the percentage obtained by dividing the rate extended by
15the district by the lesser of (i) 0.08% or (ii) the rate that
16will yield an amount equal to $12,000 per mile of road under
17the jurisdiction of the road district.
18 Prior to 2011, if any road district has levied a special
19tax for road purposes pursuant to Sections 6-601, 6-602, and
206-603 of the Illinois Highway Code, and such tax was levied in
21an amount which would require extension at a rate of not less
22than .08% of the value of the taxable property thereof, as
23equalized or assessed by the Department of Revenue, or, in
24DuPage County, an amount equal to or greater than $12,000 per
25mile of road under the jurisdiction of the road district,
26whichever is less, such levy shall, however, be deemed a

SB2435 Enrolled- 628 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1proper compliance with this Section and shall qualify such
2road district for an allotment under this Section. Beginning
3in 2011 and thereafter, if any road district has levied a
4special tax for road purposes under Sections 6-601, 6-602, and
56-603 of the Illinois Highway Code, and the tax was levied in
6an amount that would require extension at a rate of not less
7than 0.08% of the value of the taxable property of that road
8district, as equalized or assessed by the Department of
9Revenue or, in DuPage County, an amount equal to or greater
10than $12,000 per mile of road under the jurisdiction of the
11road district, whichever is less, that levy shall be deemed a
12proper compliance with this Section and shall qualify such
13road district for a full, rather than proportionate, allotment
14under this Section. If the levy for the special tax is less
15than 0.08% of the value of the taxable property, or, in DuPage
16County if the levy for the special tax is less than the lesser
17of (i) 0.08% or (ii) $12,000 per mile of road under the
18jurisdiction of the road district, and if the levy for the
19special tax is more than any other levy for road and bridge
20purposes, then the levy for the special tax qualifies the road
21district for a proportionate, rather than full, allotment
22under this Section. If the levy for the special tax is equal to
23or less than any other levy for road and bridge purposes, then
24any allotment under this Section shall be determined by the
25other levy for road and bridge purposes.
26 Prior to 2011, if a township has transferred to the road

SB2435 Enrolled- 629 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1and bridge fund money which, when added to the amount of any
2tax levy of the road district would be the equivalent of a tax
3levy requiring extension at a rate of at least .08%, or, in
4DuPage County, an amount equal to or greater than $12,000 per
5mile of road under the jurisdiction of the road district,
6whichever is less, such transfer, together with any such tax
7levy, shall be deemed a proper compliance with this Section
8and shall qualify the road district for an allotment under
9this Section.
10 In counties in which a property tax extension limitation
11is imposed under the Property Tax Extension Limitation Law,
12road districts may retain their entitlement to a motor fuel
13tax allotment or, beginning in 2011, their entitlement to a
14full allotment if, at the time the property tax extension
15limitation was imposed, the road district was levying a road
16and bridge tax at a rate sufficient to entitle it to a motor
17fuel tax allotment and continues to levy the maximum allowable
18amount after the imposition of the property tax extension
19limitation. Any road district may in all circumstances retain
20its entitlement to a motor fuel tax allotment or, beginning in
212011, its entitlement to a full allotment if it levied a road
22and bridge tax in an amount that will require the extension of
23the tax against the taxable property in the road district at a
24rate of not less than 0.08% of the assessed value of the
25property, based upon the assessment for the year immediately
26preceding the year in which the tax was levied and as equalized

SB2435 Enrolled- 630 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1by the Department of Revenue or, in DuPage County, an amount
2equal to or greater than $12,000 per mile of road under the
3jurisdiction of the road district, whichever is less.
4 As used in this Section, the term "road district" means
5any road district, including a county unit road district,
6provided for by the Illinois Highway Code; and the term
7"township or district road" means any road in the township and
8district road system as defined in the Illinois Highway Code.
9For the purposes of this Section, "township or district road"
10also includes such roads as are maintained by park districts,
11forest preserve districts and conservation districts. The
12Department of Transportation shall determine the mileage of
13all township and district roads for the purposes of making
14allotments and allocations of motor fuel tax funds for use in
15road districts.
16 Payment of motor fuel tax moneys to municipalities and
17counties shall be made as soon as possible after the allotment
18is made. The treasurer of the municipality or county may
19invest these funds until their use is required and the
20interest earned by these investments shall be limited to the
21same uses as the principal funds.

5 (a) The city council or the board of trustees of the
6municipality shall annually levy a tax upon all the taxable
7property of the municipality at the rate on the dollar which
8will produce an amount which, when added to the deductions
9from the salaries or wages of firefighters and revenues
10available from other sources, will equal a sum sufficient to
11meet the annual actuarial requirements of the pension fund, as
12determined by an enrolled actuary employed by the Illinois
13Department of Insurance or by an enrolled actuary retained by
14the pension fund or municipality. For the purposes of this
15Section, the annual actuarial requirements of the pension fund
16are equal to (1) the normal cost of the pension fund, or 17.5%
17of the salaries and wages to be paid to firefighters for the
18year involved, whichever is greater, plus (2) an annual amount
19sufficient to bring the total assets of the pension fund up to
2090% of the total actuarial liabilities of the pension fund by
21the end of municipal fiscal year 2040, as annually updated and
22determined by an enrolled actuary employed by the Illinois
23Department of Insurance or by an enrolled actuary retained by
24the pension fund or the municipality. In making these
25determinations, the required minimum employer contribution

SB2435 Enrolled- 634 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1shall be calculated each year as a level percentage of payroll
2over the years remaining up to and including fiscal year 2040
3and shall be determined under the projected unit credit
4actuarial cost method. The amount to be applied towards the
5amortization of the unfunded accrued liability in any year
6shall not be less than the annual amount required to amortize
7the unfunded accrued liability, including interest, as a level
8percentage of payroll over the number of years remaining in
9the 40-year 40 year amortization period.
10 (a-2) A municipality that has established a pension fund
11under this Article and that who employs a full-time
12firefighter, as defined in Section 4-106, shall be deemed a
13primary employer with respect to that full-time firefighter.
14Any municipality of 5,000 or more inhabitants that employs or
15enrolls a firefighter while that firefighter continues to earn
16service credit as a participant in a primary employer's
17pension fund under this Article shall be deemed a secondary
18employer and such employees shall be deemed to be secondary
19employee firefighters. To ensure that the primary employer's
20pension fund under this Article is aware of additional
21liabilities and risks to which firefighters are exposed when
22performing work as firefighters for secondary employers, a
23secondary employer shall annually prepare a report accounting
24for all hours worked by and wages and salaries paid to the
25secondary employee firefighters it receives services from or
26employs for each fiscal year in which such firefighters are

SB2435 Enrolled- 635 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b

2primary employer's pension fund and the secondary employee
3firefighter no later than 30 days after the end of any fiscal
4year in which wages were paid to the secondary employee
5firefighters.
6 Nothing in this Section shall be construed to allow a
7secondary employee to qualify for benefits or creditable
8service for employment as a firefighter for a secondary
9employer.
10 (a-5) For purposes of determining the required employer
11contribution to a pension fund, the value of the pension
12fund's assets shall be equal to the actuarial value of the
13pension fund's assets, which shall be calculated as follows:
14 (1) On March 30, 2011, the actuarial value of a
15 pension fund's assets shall be equal to the market value
16 of the assets as of that date.
17 (2) In determining the actuarial value of the pension
18 fund's assets for fiscal years after March 30, 2011, any
19 actuarial gains or losses from investment return incurred
20 in a fiscal year shall be recognized in equal annual
21 amounts over the 5-year period following that fiscal year.
22 (b) The tax shall be levied and collected in the same
23manner as the general taxes of the municipality, and shall be
24in addition to all other taxes now or hereafter authorized to
25be levied upon all property within the municipality, and in
26addition to the amount authorized to be levied for general

5case of amounts added to the tax levy under subsection (f),
6used by the municipality to pay the employer contributions
7required under subsection (b-1) of Section 15-155 of this
8Code).
9 (b-5) If a participating municipality fails to transmit to
10the fund contributions required of it under this Article for
11more than 90 days after the payment of those contributions is
12due, the fund may, after giving notice to the municipality,
13certify to the State Comptroller the amounts of the delinquent
14payments in accordance with any applicable rules of the
15Comptroller, and the Comptroller must, beginning in fiscal
16year 2016, deduct and remit to the fund the certified amounts
17or a portion of those amounts from the following proportions
18of payments of State funds to the municipality:
19 (1) in fiscal year 2016, one-third of the total amount
20 of any payments of State funds to the municipality;

6the general public for inspection and copying at reasonable
7times the most recent Actuarial Valuation Balance Sheet and

21appropriations of amounts which, together with the other
22employer contributions from trust, federal, and other funds,
23employee contributions, income from investments, and other
24income of this System, will be sufficient to meet the cost of
25maintaining and administering the System on a 90% funded basis

SB2435 Enrolled- 642 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1in accordance with actuarial recommendations.
2 The Board shall determine the amount of State
3contributions required for each fiscal year on the basis of

9each fiscal year shall be an amount determined by the System to
10be sufficient to bring the total assets of the System up to 90%
11of the total actuarial liabilities of the System by the end of
12State fiscal year 2045. In making these determinations, the
13required State contribution shall be calculated each year as a
14level percentage of payroll over the years remaining to and
15including fiscal year 2045 and shall be determined under the
16projected unit credit actuarial cost method.
17 For each of State fiscal years 2018, 2019, and 2020, the

22 A change in an actuarial or investment assumption that
23increases or decreases the required State contribution and
24first applies in State fiscal year 2018 or thereafter shall be
25implemented in equal annual amounts over a 5-year period
26beginning in the State fiscal year in which the actuarial

SB2435 Enrolled- 643 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1change first applies to the required State contribution.

52015, 2016, or 2017 shall be implemented:
6 (i) as already applied in State fiscal years before

8 (ii) in the portion of the 5-year period beginning in
9 the State fiscal year in which the actuarial change first
10 applied that occurs in State fiscal year 2018 or
11 thereafter, by calculating the change in equal annual
12 amounts over that 5-year period and then implementing it
13 at the resulting annual rate in each of the remaining
14 fiscal years in that 5-year period.
15 For State fiscal years 1996 through 2005, the State
16contribution to the System, as a percentage of the applicable
17employee payroll, shall be increased in equal annual
18increments so that by State fiscal year 2011, the State is

1State contribution to the System, as a percentage of the
2applicable employee payroll, shall be increased in equal

14received from the General Revenue Fund in fiscal year 2010,
15(iii) any reduction in bond proceeds due to the issuance of

18total required State contribution for State fiscal year 2011
19is the amount recertified by the System on or before April 1,
202011 pursuant to Section 15-165 and shall be made from the

6 Amounts received by the System pursuant to Section 25 of
7the Budget Stabilization Act or Section 8.12 of the State
8Finance Act in any fiscal year do not reduce and do not
9constitute payment of any portion of the minimum State
10contribution required under this Article in that fiscal year.
11Such amounts shall not reduce, and shall not be included in the
12calculation of, the required State contributions under this
13Article in any future year until the System has reached a
14funding ratio of at least 90%. A reference in this Article to
15the "required State contribution" or any substantially similar
16term does not include or apply to any amounts payable to the

23the required State contribution that would have been
24calculated under this Section for that fiscal year if the
25System had not received any payments under subsection (d) of
26Section 7.2 of the General Obligation Bond Act, minus (ii) the

SB2435 Enrolled- 646 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1portion of the State's total debt service payments for that
2fiscal year on the bonds issued in fiscal year 2003 for the
3purposes of that Section 7.2, as determined and certified by
4the Comptroller, that is the same as the System's portion of
5the total moneys distributed under subsection (d) of Section
67.2 of the General Obligation Bond Act. In determining this
7maximum for State fiscal years 2008 through 2010, however, the
8amount referred to in item (i) shall be increased, as a
9percentage of the applicable employee payroll, in equal
10increments calculated from the sum of the required State
11contribution for State fiscal year 2007 plus the applicable
12portion of the State's total debt service payments for fiscal
13year 2007 on the bonds issued in fiscal year 2003 for the
14purposes of Section 7.2 of the General Obligation Bond Act, so
15that, by State fiscal year 2011, the State is contributing at
16the rate otherwise required under this Section.
17 (a-2) Beginning in fiscal year 2018, each employer under
18this Article shall pay to the System a required contribution
19determined as a percentage of projected payroll and sufficient

21 (i) for each of fiscal years 2018, 2019, and 2020, the
22 defined benefit normal cost of the defined benefit plan,
23 less the employee contribution, for each employee of that
24 employer who has elected or who is deemed to have elected
25 the benefits under Section 1-161 or who has made the
26 election under subsection (c) of Section 1-161; for fiscal

SB2435 Enrolled- 647 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b

6 election under subsection (c) of Section 1-161; plus
7 (ii) the amount required for that fiscal year to
8 amortize any unfunded actuarial accrued liability
9 associated with the present value of liabilities
10 attributable to the employer's account under Section
11 15-155.2, determined as a level percentage of payroll over
12 a 30-year rolling amortization period.
13 In determining contributions required under item (i) of
14this subsection, the System shall determine an aggregate rate
15for all employers, expressed as a percentage of projected
16payroll.
17 In determining the contributions required under item (ii)
18of this subsection, the amount shall be computed by the System
19on the basis of the actuarial assumptions and tables used in
20the most recent actuarial valuation of the System that is
21available at the time of the computation.
22 The contributions required under this subsection (a-2)
23shall be paid by an employer concurrently with that employer's
24payroll payment period. The State, as the actual employer of

7who are compensated out of local auxiliary funds, income
8funds, or service enterprise funds are not required to pay
9such contributions on behalf of those employees. The local
10auxiliary funds, income funds, and service enterprise funds of

12purpose of this Article, but funds of alumni associations,
13foundations, and athletic associations which are affiliated
14with the universities included as employers under this Article
15and other employers which do not receive State appropriations
16are considered to be trust funds for the purpose of this

19each make employer contributions to this System for their
20respective firefighter employees who participate in this
21System pursuant to subsection (h) of Section 15-107. The rate
22of contributions to be made by those municipalities shall be
23determined annually by the Board on the basis of the actuarial
24assumptions adopted by the Board and the recommendations of
25the actuary, and shall be expressed as a percentage of salary
26for each such employee. The Board shall certify the rate to the

SB2435 Enrolled- 649 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1affected municipalities as soon as may be practical. The

3remitted by the municipality to the System at the same time and
4in the same manner as employee contributions.
5 (c) Through State fiscal year 1995: The total employer
6contribution shall be apportioned among the various funds of
7the State and other employers, whether trust, federal, or
8other funds, in accordance with actuarial procedures approved

12with the same employer for the previous academic year,
13determined on a full-time equivalent basis, by more than 6%,
14the participant's employer shall pay to the System, in
15addition to all other payments required under this Section and
16in accordance with guidelines established by the System, the
17present value of the increase in benefits resulting from the
18portion of the increase in earnings that is in excess of 6%.
19This present value shall be computed by the System on the basis
20of the actuarial assumptions and tables used in the most
21recent actuarial valuation of the System that is available at
22the time of the computation. The System may require the
23employer to provide any pertinent information or
24documentation.

6application must specify in detail the grounds of the dispute
7and, if the employer asserts that the calculation is subject
8to subsection (h) or (i) of this Section, must include an
9affidavit setting forth and attesting to all facts within the
10employer's knowledge that are pertinent to the applicability
11of that subsection. Upon receiving a timely application for

13appropriate, recalculate the amount due.
14 The employer contributions required under this subsection
15(g) may be paid in the form of a lump sum within 90 days after
16receipt of the bill. If the employer contributions are not
17paid within 90 days after receipt of the bill, then interest
18will be charged at a rate equal to the System's annual
19actuarially assumed rate of return on investment compounded
20annually from the 91st day after receipt of the bill. Payments
21must be concluded within 3 years after the employer's receipt
22of the bill.
23 When assessing payment for any amount due under this
24subsection (g), the System shall include earnings, to the
25extent not established by a participant under Section

19most recent actuarial valuation of the System that is
20available at the time of the computation. The System may
21require the employer to provide any pertinent information or
22documentation.
23 Whenever it determines that a payment is or may be
24required under this subsection, the System shall calculate the
25amount of the payment and bill the employer for that amount.
26The bill shall specify the calculation used to determine the

SB2435 Enrolled- 656 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1amount due. If the employer disputes the amount of the bill, it
2may, within 30 days after receipt of the bill, apply to the
3System in writing for a recalculation. The application must
4specify in detail the grounds of the dispute. Upon receiving a
5timely application for recalculation, the System shall review
6the application and, if appropriate, recalculate the amount
7due.
8 The employer contributions required under this subsection
9may be paid in the form of a lump sum within 90 days after
10issuance of the bill. If the employer contributions are not
11paid within 90 days after issuance of the bill, then interest
12will be charged at a rate equal to the System's annual
13actuarially assumed rate of return on investment compounded
14annually from the 91st day after issuance of the bill. All
15payments must be received within 3 years after issuance of the
16bill. If the employer fails to make complete payment,
17including applicable interest, within 3 years, then the System
18may, after giving notice to the employer, certify the
19delinquent amount to the State Comptroller, and the
20Comptroller shall thereupon deduct the certified delinquent
21amount from State funds payable to the employer and pay them
22instead to the System.
23 This subsection (j-5) does not apply to a participant's
24earnings to the extent an employer pays the employer normal
25cost of such earnings.
26 The changes made to this subsection (j-5) by Public Act

SB2435 Enrolled- 657 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1100-624 are intended to apply retroactively to July 6, 2017

3 (k) The Illinois Community College Board shall adopt rules
4for recommending lists of promotional positions submitted to
5the Board by community colleges and for reviewing the
6promotional lists on an annual basis. When recommending
7promotional lists, the Board shall consider the similarity of
8the positions submitted to those positions recognized for
9State universities by the State Universities Civil Service
10System. The Illinois Community College Board shall file a copy
11of its findings with the System. The System shall consider the
12findings of the Illinois Community College Board when making
13determinations under this Section. The System shall not
14exclude any earnings increases resulting from a promotion when
15the promotion was not submitted by a community college.
16Nothing in this subsection (k) shall require any community
17college to submit any information to the Community College
18Board.
19 (l) For purposes of determining the required State
20contribution to the System, the value of the System's assets
21shall be equal to the actuarial value of the System's assets,
22which shall be calculated as follows:
23 As of June 30, 2008, the actuarial value of the System's
24assets shall be equal to the market value of the assets as of
25that date. In determining the actuarial value of the System's
26assets for fiscal years after June 30, 2008, any actuarial

SB2435 Enrolled- 658 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1gains or losses from investment return incurred in a fiscal
2year shall be recognized in equal annual amounts over the
35-year period following that fiscal year.
4 (m) For purposes of determining the required State
5contribution to the system for a particular year, the
6actuarial value of assets shall be assumed to earn a rate of
7return equal to the system's actuarially assumed rate of
8return.

10the State Actuary's recommended changes on the required State
11contribution.
12 (a-15) On or after June 15, 2019, but no later than June
1330, 2019, the Board shall recalculate and recertify to the
14Governor and the General Assembly the amount of the State
15contribution to the System for State fiscal year 2019, taking

6each fiscal year shall be an amount determined by the System to
7be sufficient to bring the total assets of the System up to 90%
8of the total actuarial liabilities of the System by the end of
9State fiscal year 2045. In making these determinations, the
10required State contribution shall be calculated each year as a
11level percentage of payroll over the years remaining to and
12including fiscal year 2045 and shall be determined under the
13projected unit credit actuarial cost method.
14 For each of State fiscal years 2018, 2019, and 2020, the

16equal to 2% of the total payroll of each employee who is deemed
17to have elected the benefits under Section 1-161 or who has
18made the election under subsection (c) of Section 1-161.
19 A change in an actuarial or investment assumption that
20increases or decreases the required State contribution and
21first applies in State fiscal year 2018 or thereafter shall be
22implemented in equal annual amounts over a 5-year period
23beginning in the State fiscal year in which the actuarial
24change first applies to the required State contribution.

22015, 2016, or 2017 shall be implemented:
3 (i) as already applied in State fiscal years before
4 2018; and
5 (ii) in the portion of the 5-year period beginning in
6 the State fiscal year in which the actuarial change first
7 applied that occurs in State fiscal year 2018 or
8 thereafter, by calculating the change in equal annual
9 amounts over that 5-year period and then implementing it
10 at the resulting annual rate in each of the remaining
11 fiscal years in that 5-year period.
12 For State fiscal years 1996 through 2005, the State
13contribution to the System, as a percentage of the applicable
14employee payroll, shall be increased in equal annual
15increments so that by State fiscal year 2011, the State is
16contributing at the rate required under this Section; except
17that in the following specified State fiscal years, the State
18contribution to the System shall not be less than the
19following indicated percentages of the applicable employee
20payroll, even if the indicated percentage will produce a State
21contribution in excess of the amount otherwise required under

9the required State contribution that would have been
10calculated under this Section for that fiscal year if the
11System had not received any payments under subsection (d) of
12Section 7.2 of the General Obligation Bond Act, minus (ii) the
13portion of the State's total debt service payments for that

17the total moneys distributed under subsection (d) of Section
187.2 of the General Obligation Bond Act. In determining this
19maximum for State fiscal years 2008 through 2010, however, the
20amount referred to in item (i) shall be increased, as a
21percentage of the applicable employee payroll, in equal
22increments calculated from the sum of the required State
23contribution for State fiscal year 2007 plus the applicable
24portion of the State's total debt service payments for fiscal

5determined as a percentage of projected payroll and sufficient
6to produce an annual amount equal to:

9 less the employee contribution, for each employee of that
10 employer who has elected or who is deemed to have elected
11 the benefits under Section 1-161 or who has made the

SB2435 Enrolled- 669 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1for all employers, expressed as a percentage of projected
2payroll.
3 In determining the contributions required under item (ii)
4of this subsection, the amount shall be computed by the System
5on the basis of the actuarial assumptions and tables used in
6the most recent actuarial valuation of the System that is
7available at the time of the computation.
8 The contributions required under this subsection (b-4)
9shall be paid by an employer concurrently with that employer's
10payroll payment period. The State, as the actual employer of
11an employee, shall make the required contributions under this
12subsection.
13 (c) Payment of the required State contributions and of all
14pensions, retirement annuities, death benefits, refunds, and
15other benefits granted under or assumed by this System, and
16all expenses in connection with the administration and
17operation thereof, are obligations of the State.
18 If members are paid from special trust or federal funds
19which are administered by the employing unit, whether school
20district or other unit, the employing unit shall pay to the
21System from such funds the full accruing retirement costs
22based upon that service, which, beginning July 1, 2017, shall
23be at a rate, expressed as a percentage of salary, equal to the
24total employer's normal cost, expressed as a percentage of
25payroll, as determined by the System. Employer contributions,

SB2435 Enrolled- 670 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1forwarded by the distributing agency of the State of Illinois
2to the System prior to allocation, in an amount determined in
3accordance with guidelines established by such agency and the
4System. Any contribution for fiscal year 2015 collected as a
5result of the change made by Public Act 98-674 shall be
6considered a State contribution under subsection (b-3) of this
7Section.
8 (d) Effective July 1, 1986, any employer of a teacher as
9defined in paragraph (8) of Section 16-106 shall pay the
10employer's normal cost of benefits based upon the teacher's
11service, in addition to employee contributions, as determined
12by the System. Such employer contributions shall be forwarded

15 However, with respect to benefits granted under Section
1616-133.4 or 16-133.5 to a teacher as defined in paragraph (8)
17of Section 16-106, the employer's contribution shall be 12%
18(rather than 20%) of the member's highest annual salary rate
19for each year of creditable service granted, and the employer
20shall also pay the required employee contribution on behalf of
21the teacher. For the purposes of Sections 16-133.4 and
2216-133.5, a teacher as defined in paragraph (8) of Section
2316-106 who is serving in that capacity while on leave of
24absence from another employer under this Article shall not be
25considered an employee of the employer from which the teacher
26is on leave.

3follows:
4 (1) Beginning July 1, 1998 through June 30, 1999, the
5 employer contribution shall be equal to 0.3% of each
6 teacher's salary.
7 (2) Beginning July 1, 1999 and thereafter, the
8 employer contribution shall be equal to 0.58% of each
9 teacher's salary.
10The school district or other employing unit may pay these
11employer contributions out of any source of funding available
12for that purpose and shall forward the contributions to the
13System on the schedule established for the payment of member
14contributions.
15 These employer contributions are intended to offset a
16portion of the cost to the System of the increases in
17retirement benefits resulting from Public Act 90-582.
18 Each employer of teachers is entitled to a credit against
19the contributions required under this subsection (e) with
20respect to salaries paid to teachers for the period January 1,
212002 through June 30, 2003, equal to the amount paid by that
22employer under subsection (a-5) of Section 6.6 of the State
23Employees Group Insurance Act of 1971 with respect to salaries
24paid to teachers for that period.
25 The additional 1% employee contribution required under
26Section 16-152 by Public Act 90-582 is the responsibility of

SB2435 Enrolled- 672 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1the teacher and not the teacher's employer, unless the
2employer agrees, through collective bargaining or otherwise,
3to make the contribution on behalf of the teacher.
4 If an employer is required by a contract in effect on May
51, 1998 between the employer and an employee organization to
6pay, on behalf of all its full-time employees covered by this
7Article, all mandatory employee contributions required under
8this Article, then the employer shall be excused from paying
9the employer contribution required under this subsection (e)
10for the balance of the term of that contract. The employer and
11the employee organization shall jointly certify to the System
12the existence of the contractual requirement, in such form as
13the System may prescribe. This exclusion shall cease upon the
14termination, extension, or renewal of the contract at any time
15after May 1, 1998.
16 (f) If June 4, 2018 (Public Act 100-587) the amount of a
17teacher's salary for any school year used to determine final

22and in accordance with guidelines established by the System,
23the present value of the increase in benefits resulting from

1recent actuarial valuation of the System that is available at
2the time of the computation. If a teacher's salary for the
32005-2006 school year is used to determine final average
4salary under this subsection (f), then the changes made to
5this subsection (f) by Public Act 94-1057 shall apply in
6calculating whether the increase in his or her salary is in
7excess of 6%. For the purposes of this Section, change in
8employment under Section 10-21.12 of the School Code on or
9after June 1, 2005 shall constitute a change in employer. The
10System may require the employer to provide any pertinent
11information or documentation. The changes made to this
12subsection (f) by Public Act 94-1111 apply without regard to
13whether the teacher was in service on or after its effective
14date.
15 Whenever it determines that a payment is or may be
16required under this subsection, the System shall calculate the
17amount of the payment and bill the employer for that amount.
18The bill shall specify the calculations used to determine the
19amount due. If the employer disputes the amount of the bill, it
20may, within 30 days after receipt of the bill, apply to the
21System in writing for a recalculation. The application must
22specify in detail the grounds of the dispute and, if the
23employer asserts that the calculation is subject to subsection
24(g) or (h) of this Section, must include an affidavit setting
25forth and attesting to all facts within the employer's
26knowledge that are pertinent to the applicability of that

3appropriate, recalculate the amount due.
4 The employer contributions required under this subsection
5(f) may be paid in the form of a lump sum within 90 days after
6receipt of the bill. If the employer contributions are not
7paid within 90 days after receipt of the bill, then interest
8will be charged at a rate equal to the System's annual
9actuarially assumed rate of return on investment compounded
10annually from the 91st day after receipt of the bill. Payments
11must be concluded within 3 years after the employer's receipt
12of the bill.

6 (i-5) For school years beginning on or after July 1, 2017,
7if the amount of a participant's salary for any school year
8exceeds the amount of the salary set for the Governor, the
9participant's employer shall pay to the System, in addition to
10all other payments required under this Section and in
11accordance with guidelines established by the System, an
12amount determined by the System to be equal to the employer
13normal cost, as established by the System and expressed as a
14total percentage of payroll, multiplied by the amount of
15salary in excess of the amount of the salary set for the
16Governor. This amount shall be computed by the System on the
17basis of the actuarial assumptions and tables used in the most
18recent actuarial valuation of the System that is available at
19the time of the computation. The System may require the
20employer to provide any pertinent information or

14 "Eligible person" means a person who:
15 (1) has terminated service;
16 (2) has accrued sufficient service credit to be
17 eligible to receive a retirement annuity under this
18 Article;
19 (3) has not received any retirement annuity under this
20 Article; and
21 (4) has not made the election under Section 16-190.6.
22 "Pension benefit" means the benefits under this Article,
23or Article 1 as it relates to those benefits, including any
24anticipated annual increases, that an eligible person is
25entitled to upon attainment of the applicable retirement age.

SB2435 Enrolled- 680 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1"Pension benefit" also includes applicable survivor's or
2disability benefits.
3 (b) As soon as practical after June 4, 2018 (the effective
4date of Public Act 100-587), the System shall calculate, using
5actuarial tables and other assumptions adopted by the Board,
6the present value of pension benefits for each eligible person
7who requests that information and shall offer each eligible
8person the opportunity to irrevocably elect to receive an
9amount determined by the System to be equal to 60% of the
10present value of his or her pension benefits in lieu of
11receiving any pension benefit. The offer shall specify the
12dollar amount that the eligible person will receive if he or
13she so elects and shall expire when a subsequent offer is made
14to an eligible person. The System shall make a good faith
15effort to contact every eligible person to notify him or her of
16the election.
17 Until June 30, 2024, an eligible person may irrevocably
18elect to receive an accelerated pension benefit payment in the
19amount that the System offers under this subsection in lieu of
20receiving any pension benefit. A person who elects to receive
21an accelerated pension benefit payment under this Section may
22not elect to proceed under the Retirement Systems Reciprocal
23Act with respect to service under this Article.
24 (c) A person's creditable service under this Article shall
25be terminated upon the person's receipt of an accelerated
26pension benefit payment under this Section, and no other

SB2435 Enrolled- 681 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1benefit shall be paid under this Article based on the
2terminated creditable service, including any retirement,
3survivor, or other benefit; except that to the extent that
4participation, benefits, or premiums under the State Employees
5Group Insurance Act of 1971 are based on the amount of service
6credit, the terminated service credit shall be used for that
7purpose.
8 (d) If a person who has received an accelerated pension
9benefit payment under this Section returns to active service
10under this Article, then:
11 (1) Any benefits under the System earned as a result
12 of that return to active service shall be based solely on
13 the person's creditable service arising from the return to
14 active service.
15 (2) The accelerated pension benefit payment may not be
16 repaid to the System, and the terminated creditable
17 service may not under any circumstances be reinstated.
18 (e) As a condition of receiving an accelerated pension
19benefit payment, the accelerated pension benefit payment must
20be transferred into a tax qualified retirement plan or
21account. The accelerated pension benefit payment under this
22Section may be subject to withholding or payment of applicable
23taxes, but to the extent permitted by federal law, a person who
24receives an accelerated pension benefit payment under this
25Section must direct the System to pay all of that payment as a
26rollover into another retirement plan or account qualified

SB2435 Enrolled- 682 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
2 (f) Upon receipt of a member's irrevocable election to
3receive an accelerated pension benefit payment under this
4Section, the System shall submit a voucher to the Comptroller
5for payment of the member's accelerated pension benefit
6payment. The Comptroller shall transfer the amount of the
7voucher from the State Pension Obligation Acceleration Bond
8Fund to the System, and the System shall transfer the amount
9into the member's eligible retirement plan or qualified
10account.
11 (g) The Board shall adopt any rules, including emergency
12rules, necessary to implement this Section.
13 (h) No provision of Public Act 100-587 this amendatory Act
14of the 100th General Assembly shall be interpreted in a way
15that would cause the applicable System to cease to be a
16qualified plan under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.

19 (40 ILCS 5/16-203)
20 Sec. 16-203. Application and expiration of new benefit
21increases.
22 (a) As used in this Section, "new benefit increase" means
23an increase in the amount of any benefit provided under this
24Article, or an expansion of the conditions of eligibility for
25any benefit under this Article, that results from an amendment

SB2435 Enrolled- 683 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1to this Code that takes effect after June 1, 2005 (the
2effective date of Public Act 94-4). "New benefit increase",
3however, does not include any benefit increase resulting from
4the changes made to Article 1 or this Article by Public Act
595-910, Public Act 100-23, Public Act 100-587, Public Act
6100-743, or Public Act 100-769, Public Act 101-10, or Public
7Act 101-49 or this amendatory Act of the 101st General
8Assembly.
9 (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Code or
10any subsequent amendment to this Code, every new benefit
11increase is subject to this Section and shall be deemed to be
12granted only in conformance with and contingent upon
13compliance with the provisions of this Section.
14 (c) The Public Act enacting a new benefit increase must
15identify and provide for payment to the System of additional
16funding at least sufficient to fund the resulting annual
17increase in cost to the System as it accrues.
18 Every new benefit increase is contingent upon the General
19Assembly providing the additional funding required under this
20subsection. The Commission on Government Forecasting and
21Accountability shall analyze whether adequate additional
22funding has been provided for the new benefit increase and
23shall report its analysis to the Public Pension Division of
24the Department of Insurance. A new benefit increase created by
25a Public Act that does not include the additional funding
26required under this subsection is null and void. If the Public

SB2435 Enrolled- 684 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1Pension Division determines that the additional funding
2provided for a new benefit increase under this subsection is
3or has become inadequate, it may so certify to the Governor and
4the State Comptroller and, in the absence of corrective action
5by the General Assembly, the new benefit increase shall expire
6at the end of the fiscal year in which the certification is
7made.
8 (d) Every new benefit increase shall expire 5 years after
9its effective date or on such earlier date as may be specified
10in the language enacting the new benefit increase or provided
11under subsection (c). This does not prevent the General
12Assembly from extending or re-creating a new benefit increase
13by law.
14 (e) Except as otherwise provided in the language creating
15the new benefit increase, a new benefit increase that expires
16under this Section continues to apply to persons who applied
17and qualified for the affected benefit while the new benefit
18increase was in effect and to the affected beneficiaries and
19alternate payees of such persons, but does not apply to any
20other person, including, without limitation, a person who
21continues in service after the expiration date and did not
22apply and qualify for the affected benefit while the new
23benefit increase was in effect.

7 Section 260. The Local Government Antitrust Exemption Act
8is amended by changing Section 1 as follows:
9 (50 ILCS 35/1) (from Ch. 85, par. 2901)
10 Sec. 1. (a) The General Assembly declares that it is in the
11interest of the people of Illinois that decisions regarding
12provision of local services and regulation of local activities
13should be made at the local level where possible, to the extent
14authorized by the General Assembly or the Illinois
15Constitution. It is and has long been the policy of the State
16that such decisions be made by local government units as
17authorized by State statute and the Illinois Constitution. The
18General Assembly intends that actions permitted, either
19expressly or by necessary implication, by State statute or the
20Illinois Constitution be considered affirmatively authorized
21for subsidiary units of government.
22 Inasmuch as the grant of home rule home-rule authority in
23the Illinois Constitution, Article VII, Section 6 was
24intentionally made broad so as to avoid unduly restricting its

SB2435 Enrolled- 690 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1exercise, the scope of the home rule home-rule powers cannot
2be precisely described. The General Assembly intends that all
3actions which are either (1) granted to home rule home-rule
4units, whether expressly or by necessary implication or (2)
5within traditional areas of local government activity, except
6as limited by the Illinois Constitution or a proper limiting
7statute, be considered affirmatively authorized for home rule
8home-rule units of government.
9 The General Assembly intends that the "State action
10exemption" to application of the federal antitrust laws be
11fully available to local governments to the extent their
12activities are either (1) expressly or by necessary
13implication authorized by Illinois law or (2) within
14traditional areas of local governmental activity.
15 The "State action exemption" for which provision is made
16by this Section shall be liberally construed in favor of local
17governments, the agents, employees and officers thereof and
18such exemption shall be available notwithstanding that the
19action of the municipality or its agents, officers or
20employees constitutes an irregular exercise of constitutional

11person shall be placed on the list based upon his or her
12passage of the written examination or the passage of the
13written examination and the physical ability component.
14Passage of the written examination means attaining the minimum
15score set by the commission. Minimum scores should be set by

10score to qualify for placement on the final eligibility
11register, but the score shall not be less than the minimum
12score set by the commission.
13 The commission shall prepare and keep a register of
14persons whose total score is not less than the minimum score
15for passage and who have passed the physical ability

17as candidates in the order of their relative excellence based
18on the highest to the lowest total points scored on the mental
19aptitude, subjective component, and preference components of
20the test administered in accordance with this Section. No more

10identify applicants who possess and demonstrate the mental
11aptitude and physical ability to perform the duties required

13highest quality of service to the public. To this end, all
14applicants for original appointment to an affected fire
15department shall be subject to examination and testing which
16shall be public, competitive, and open to all applicants
17unless the municipality shall by ordinance limit applicants to
18residents of the municipality, county or counties in which the
19municipality is located, State, or nation. Any examination and
20testing procedure utilized under subsection (e) of this
21Section shall be supported by appropriate validation evidence
22and shall comply with all applicable State and federal laws.
23Municipalities may establish educational, emergency medical
24service licensure, and other prerequisites prerequites for
25participation in an examination or for hire as a firefighter.
26Any municipality may charge a fee to cover the costs of the

SB2435 Enrolled- 747 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1application process.
2 Residency requirements in effect at the time an individual
3enters the fire service of a municipality cannot be made more
4restrictive for that individual during his or her period of

6promotion, except for the rank or position of fire chief and
7for no more than 2 positions that rank immediately below that
8of the chief rank which are appointed positions pursuant to
9the Fire Department Promotion Act.
10 No person who is 35 years of age or older shall be eligible
11to take an examination for a position as a firefighter unless
12the person has had previous employment status as a firefighter
13in the regularly constituted fire department of the
14municipality, except as provided in this Section. The age
15limitation does not apply to:
16 (1) any person previously employed as a full-time
17 firefighter in a regularly constituted fire department of
18 (i) any municipality or fire protection district located
19 in Illinois, (ii) a fire protection district whose
20 obligations were assumed by a municipality under Section
21 21 of the Fire Protection District Act, or (iii) a
22 municipality whose obligations were taken over by a fire
23 protection district,
24 (2) any person who has served a municipality as a
25 regularly enrolled volunteer, paid-on-call, or part-time
26 firefighter for the 5 years immediately preceding the time

2 to provide all or part of its fire protection service, or
3 (3) any person who turned 35 while serving as a member
4 of the active or reserve components of any of the branches
5 of the Armed Forces of the United States or the National

8 military, and is currently under the age of 40.
9 No person who is under 21 years of age shall be eligible
10for employment as a firefighter.
11 No applicant shall be examined concerning his or her

15 No municipality shall require that any firefighter
16appointed to the lowest rank serve a probationary employment
17period of longer than one year of actual active employment,
18which may exclude periods of training, or injury or illness
19leaves, including duty related leave, in excess of 30 calendar
20days. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
21Section, the probationary employment period limitation may be
22extended for a firefighter who is required, as a condition of
23employment, to be a licensed paramedic, during which time the
24sole reason that a firefighter may be discharged without a
25hearing is for failing to meet the requirements for paramedic
26licensure.

SB2435 Enrolled- 749 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 In the event that any applicant who has been found
2eligible for appointment and whose name has been placed upon
3the final eligibility register provided for in this Section

11determined by the commission. Scores from the examination must
12be made available to the public.
13 (e) Mental aptitude. No person who does not possess at
14least a high school diploma or an equivalent high school

1the purposes of this Section, essential functions of the job
2are functions associated with duties that a firefighter may be
3called upon to perform in response to emergency calls. The
4frequency of the occurrence of those duties as part of the fire
5department's regular routine shall not be a controlling factor
6in the design of examination criteria or evolutions selected
7for testing. These physical examinations shall be open,
8competitive, and based on industry standards designed to test
9each applicant's physical abilities in the following
10dimensions:
11 (1) Muscular strength to perform tasks and evolutions
12 that may be required in the performance of duties
13 including grip strength, leg strength, and arm strength.
14 Tests shall be conducted under anaerobic as well as

5approved by the Joint Labor-Management Committee of the Office
6of the State Fire Marshal.
7 Physical ability examinations administered under this
8Section shall be conducted with a reasonable number of
9proctors and monitors, open to the public, and subject to
10reasonable regulations of the commission.
11 (g) Scoring of examination components. Appointing
12authorities may create a preliminary eligibility register. A
13person shall be placed on the list based upon his or her
14passage of the written examination or the passage of the
15written examination and the physical ability component.
16Passage of the written examination means attaining the minimum
17score set by the commission. Minimum scores should be set by
18the commission so as to demonstrate a candidate's ability to
19perform the essential functions of the job. The minimum score
20set by the commission shall be supported by appropriate
21validation evidence and shall comply with all applicable State
22and federal laws. The appointing authority may conduct the
23physical ability component and any subjective components
24subsequent to the posting of the preliminary eligibility
25register.
26 The examination components for an initial eligibility

SB2435 Enrolled- 753 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b

8register, an applicant's score on the written examination,
9before any applicable preference points or subjective points
10are applied, shall be at or above the minimum score as set by
11the commission. The local appointing authority may prescribe
12the score to qualify for placement on the final eligibility
13register, but the score shall not be less than the minimum
14score set by the commission.
15 The commission shall prepare and keep a register of
16persons whose total score is not less than the minimum score
17for passage and who have passed the physical ability
18examination. These persons shall take rank upon the register
19as candidates in the order of their relative excellence based
20on the highest to the lowest total points scored on the mental
21aptitude, subjective component, and preference components of
22the test administered in accordance with this Section. No more
23than 60 days after each examination, an initial eligibility

10 Sec. 11-74.4-8. Tax increment allocation financing. A
11municipality may not adopt tax increment financing in a
12redevelopment project area after July 30, 1997 (the effective
13date of Public Act 90-258) this amendatory Act of 1997 that
14will encompass an area that is currently included in an
15enterprise zone created under the Illinois Enterprise Zone Act
16unless that municipality, pursuant to Section 5.4 of the
17Illinois Enterprise Zone Act, amends the enterprise zone
18designating ordinance to limit the eligibility for tax
19abatements as provided in Section 5.4.1 of the Illinois
20Enterprise Zone Act. A municipality, at the time a
21redevelopment project area is designated, may adopt tax
22increment allocation financing by passing an ordinance
23providing that the ad valorem taxes, if any, arising from the
24levies upon taxable real property in such redevelopment
25project area by taxing districts and tax rates determined in

SB2435 Enrolled- 763 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1the manner provided in paragraph (c) of Section 11-74.4-9 each
2year after the effective date of the ordinance until
3redevelopment project costs and all municipal obligations
4financing redevelopment project costs incurred under this
5Division have been paid shall be divided as follows, provided,
6however, that with respect to any redevelopment project area
7located within a transit facility improvement area established
8pursuant to Section 11-74.4-3.3 in a municipality with a
9population of 1,000,000 or more, ad valorem taxes, if any,
10arising from the levies upon taxable real property in such
11redevelopment project area shall be allocated as specifically
12provided in this Section:
13 (a) That portion of taxes levied upon each taxable
14 lot, block, tract, or parcel of real property which is
15 attributable to the lower of the current equalized
16 assessed value or the initial equalized assessed value of
17 each such taxable lot, block, tract, or parcel of real
18 property in the redevelopment project area shall be
19 allocated to and when collected shall be paid by the
20 county collector to the respective affected taxing
21 districts in the manner required by law in the absence of

23 (b) Except from a tax levied by a township to retire
24 bonds issued to satisfy court-ordered damages, that
25 portion, if any, of such taxes which is attributable to
26 the increase in the current equalized assessed valuation

SB2435 Enrolled- 764 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b

10 population of 3,000,000 or more that has adopted a
11 procedure for collecting taxes that provides for one or
12 more of the installments of the taxes to be billed and
13 collected on an estimated basis, the municipal treasurer

17 project area, the difference between the amount actually
18 collected from each taxable lot, block, tract, or parcel
19 of real property within the redevelopment project area and
20 an amount determined by multiplying the rate at which
21 taxes were last extended against the taxable lot, block,
22 tract track, or parcel of real property in the manner
23 provided in subsection (c) of Section 11-74.4-9 by the
24 initial equalized assessed value of the property divided
25 by the number of installments in which real estate taxes
26 are billed and collected within the county; provided that

SB2435 Enrolled- 765 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 the payments on or before December 31, 1999 to a municipal
2 treasurer shall be made only if each of the following
3 conditions are met:
4 (1) The total equalized assessed value of the
5 redevelopment project area as last determined was not
6 less than 175% of the total initial equalized assessed
7 value.
8 (2) Not more than 50% of the total equalized
9 assessed value of the redevelopment project area as
10 last determined is attributable to a piece of property
11 assigned a single real estate index number.
12 (3) The municipal clerk has certified to the
13 county clerk that the municipality has issued its
14 obligations to which there has been pledged the
15 incremental property taxes of the redevelopment
16 project area or taxes levied and collected on any or
17 all property in the municipality or the full faith and
18 credit of the municipality to pay or secure payment
19 for all or a portion of the redevelopment project
20 costs. The certification shall be filed annually no
21 later than September 1 for the estimated taxes to be
22 distributed in the following year; however, for the
23 year 1992 the certification shall be made at any time
24 on or before March 31, 1992.
25 (4) The municipality has not requested that the
26 total initial equalized assessed value of real

SB2435 Enrolled- 766 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 property be adjusted as provided in subsection (b) of
2 Section 11-74.4-9.
3 The conditions of paragraphs (1) through (4) do not
4 apply after December 31, 1999 to payments to a municipal
5 treasurer made by a county with 3,000,000 or more
6 inhabitants that has adopted an estimated billing
7 procedure for collecting taxes. If a county that has
8 adopted the estimated billing procedure makes an erroneous
9 overpayment of tax revenue to the municipal treasurer,
10 then the county may seek a refund of that overpayment. The
11 county shall send the municipal treasurer a notice of
12 liability for the overpayment on or before the mailing
13 date of the next real estate tax bill within the county.
14 The refund shall be limited to the amount of the
15 overpayment.
16 It is the intent of this Division that after July 29,
17 1988 (the effective date of Public Act 85-1142) this
18 amendatory Act of 1988 a municipality's own ad valorem tax
19 arising from levies on taxable real property be included
20 in the determination of incremental revenue in the manner
21 provided in paragraph (c) of Section 11-74.4-9. If the
22 municipality does not extend such a tax, it shall annually
23 deposit in the municipality's Special Tax Increment Fund
24 an amount equal to 10% of the total contributions to the
25 fund from all other taxing districts in that year. The
26 annual 10% deposit required by this paragraph shall be

SB2435 Enrolled- 767 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 limited to the actual amount of municipally produced
2 incremental tax revenues available to the municipality
3 from taxpayers located in the redevelopment project area
4 in that year if: (a) the plan for the area restricts the
5 use of the property primarily to industrial purposes, (b)
6 the municipality establishing the redevelopment project
7 area is a home rule home-rule community with a 1990
8 population of between 25,000 and 50,000, (c) the
9 municipality is wholly located within a county with a 1990
10 population of over 750,000 and (d) the redevelopment
11 project area was established by the municipality prior to
12 June 1, 1990. This payment shall be in lieu of a
13 contribution of ad valorem taxes on real property. If no
14 such payment is made, any redevelopment project area of
15 the municipality shall be dissolved.
16 If a municipality has adopted tax increment allocation
17 financing by ordinance and the County Clerk thereafter
18 certifies the "total initial equalized assessed value as
19 adjusted" of the taxable real property within such
20 redevelopment project area in the manner provided in
21 paragraph (b) of Section 11-74.4-9, each year after the
22 date of the certification of the total initial equalized
23 assessed value as adjusted until redevelopment project
24 costs and all municipal obligations financing
25 redevelopment project costs have been paid the ad valorem
26 taxes, if any, arising from the levies upon the taxable

SB2435 Enrolled- 768 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 real property in such redevelopment project area by taxing
2 districts and tax rates determined in the manner provided
3 in paragraph (c) of Section 11-74.4-9 shall be divided as
4 follows, provided, however, that with respect to any
5 redevelopment project area located within a transit
6 facility improvement area established pursuant to Section
7 11-74.4-3.3 in a municipality with a population of
8 1,000,000 or more, ad valorem taxes, if any, arising from
9 the levies upon the taxable real property in such
10 redevelopment project area shall be allocated as
11 specifically provided in this Section:
12 (1) That portion of the taxes levied upon each
13 taxable lot, block, tract, or parcel of real property
14 which is attributable to the lower of the current
15 equalized assessed value or "current equalized
16 assessed value as adjusted" or the initial equalized
17 assessed value of each such taxable lot, block, tract,
18 or parcel of real property existing at the time tax
19 increment financing was adopted, minus the total
20 current homestead exemptions under Article 15 of the
21 Property Tax Code in the redevelopment project area
22 shall be allocated to and when collected shall be paid
23 by the county collector to the respective affected
24 taxing districts in the manner required by law in the
25 absence of the adoption of tax increment allocation
26 financing.

SB2435 Enrolled- 769 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 (2) That portion, if any, of such taxes which is
2 attributable to the increase in the current equalized
3 assessed valuation of each taxable lot, block, tract,
4 or parcel of real property in the redevelopment
5 project area, over and above the initial equalized
6 assessed value of each property existing at the time
7 tax increment financing was adopted, minus the total
8 current homestead exemptions pertaining to each piece
9 of property provided by Article 15 of the Property Tax
10 Code in the redevelopment project area, shall be
11 allocated to and when collected shall be paid to the
12 municipal Treasurer, who shall deposit said taxes into
13 a special fund called the special tax allocation fund
14 of the municipality for the purpose of paying
15 redevelopment project costs and obligations incurred
16 in the payment thereof.
17 The municipality may pledge in the ordinance the funds
18 in and to be deposited in the special tax allocation fund
19 for the payment of such costs and obligations. No part of
20 the current equalized assessed valuation of each property
21 in the redevelopment project area attributable to any
22 increase above the total initial equalized assessed value,
23 or the total initial equalized assessed value as adjusted,
24 of such properties shall be used in calculating the
25 general State aid formula, provided for in Section 18-8 of
26 the School Code, or the evidence-based funding formula,

SB2435 Enrolled- 770 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 provided for in Section 18-8.15 of the School Code, until
2 such time as all redevelopment project costs have been
3 paid as provided for in this Section.
4 Whenever a municipality issues bonds for the purpose
5 of financing redevelopment project costs, such
6 municipality may provide by ordinance for the appointment
7 of a trustee, which may be any trust company within the
8 State, and for the establishment of such funds or accounts
9 to be maintained by such trustee as the municipality shall
10 deem necessary to provide for the security and payment of
11 the bonds. If such municipality provides for the
12 appointment of a trustee, such trustee shall be considered
13 the assignee of any payments assigned by the municipality
14 pursuant to such ordinance and this Section. Any amounts
15 paid to such trustee as assignee shall be deposited in the
16 funds or accounts established pursuant to such trust
17 agreement, and shall be held by such trustee in trust for
18 the benefit of the holders of the bonds, and such holders
19 shall have a lien on and a security interest in such funds
20 or accounts so long as the bonds remain outstanding and
21 unpaid. Upon retirement of the bonds, the trustee shall
22 pay over any excess amounts held to the municipality for
23 deposit in the special tax allocation fund.
24 When such redevelopment projects costs, including,
25 without limitation, all municipal obligations financing
26 redevelopment project costs incurred under this Division,

SB2435 Enrolled- 771 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 have been paid, all surplus funds then remaining in the
2 special tax allocation fund shall be distributed by being
3 paid by the municipal treasurer to the Department of
4 Revenue, the municipality and the county collector; first
5 to the Department of Revenue and the municipality in
6 direct proportion to the tax incremental revenue received
7 from the State and the municipality, but not to exceed the
8 total incremental revenue received from the State or the
9 municipality less any annual surplus distribution of
10 incremental revenue previously made; with any remaining
11 funds to be paid to the County Collector who shall
12 immediately thereafter pay said funds to the taxing
13 districts in the redevelopment project area in the same
14 manner and proportion as the most recent distribution by
15 the county collector to the affected districts of real
16 property taxes from real property in the redevelopment
17 project area.
18 Upon the payment of all redevelopment project costs,
19 the retirement of obligations, the distribution of any
20 excess monies pursuant to this Section, and final closing
21 of the books and records of the redevelopment project
22 area, the municipality shall adopt an ordinance dissolving
23 the special tax allocation fund for the redevelopment
24 project area and terminating the designation of the
25 redevelopment project area as a redevelopment project
26 area. Title to real or personal property and public

SB2435 Enrolled- 772 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 improvements acquired by or for the municipality as a
2 result of the redevelopment project and plan shall vest in
3 the municipality when acquired and shall continue to be
4 held by the municipality after the redevelopment project
5 area has been terminated. Municipalities shall notify
6 affected taxing districts prior to November 1 if the
7 redevelopment project area is to be terminated by December
8 31 of that same year. If a municipality extends estimated
9 dates of completion of a redevelopment project and
10 retirement of obligations to finance a redevelopment
11 project, as allowed by Public Act 87-1272 this amendatory
12 Act of 1993, that extension shall not extend the property
13 tax increment allocation financing authorized by this
14 Section. Thereafter the rates of the taxing districts
15 shall be extended and taxes levied, collected and
16 distributed in the manner applicable in the absence of the
17 adoption of tax increment allocation financing.
18 If a municipality with a population of 1,000,000 or
19 more has adopted by ordinance tax increment allocation
20 financing for a redevelopment project area located in a
21 transit facility improvement area established pursuant to
22 Section 11-74.4-3.3, for each year after the effective
23 date of the ordinance until redevelopment project costs

18 purpose of paying redevelopment project costs and
19 obligations incurred in the payment thereof; and
20 then
21 (C) 20% of the remaining portion shall be paid
22 to the respective affected taxing districts, other
23 than the school district described in clause (a)

25 absence of the adoption of tax increment
26 allocation financing.

6 the respective affected taxing districts in the manner
7 required by law without regard to the adoption of tax
8 increment allocation financing.
9 (2) That portion, if any, of those taxes that is

1 allocation fund of the municipality, from the taxes
2 collected from estimated bills issued for property in the
3 redevelopment project area, the difference between the
4 amount actually collected from each taxable lot, block,

6 project area and an amount determined by multiplying the
7 rate at which taxes were last extended against the taxable
8 lot, block, tract track, or parcel of real property in the
9 manner provided in subsection (b) of Section 11-74.6-40 by
10 the initial equalized assessed value or the updated
11 initial equalized assessed value of the property divided
12 by the number of installments in which real estate taxes
13 are billed and collected within the county, provided that

15 treasurer shall be made only if each of the following
16 conditions are met:
17 (A) The total equalized assessed value of the
18 redevelopment project area as last determined was not
19 less than 175% of the total initial equalized assessed
20 value.

16treasurer, then the county may seek a refund of that
17overpayment. The county shall send the municipal treasurer a
18notice of liability for the overpayment on or before the
19mailing date of the next real estate tax bill within the
20county. The refund shall be limited to the amount of the
21overpayment.
22 (b) It is the intent of this Act that a municipality's own
23ad valorem tax arising from levies on taxable real property be
24included in the determination of incremental revenue in the
25manner provided in paragraph (b) of Section 11-74.6-40.
26 (c) If a municipality has adopted tax increment allocation

18 attributable to the lower of the current equalized
19 assessed value or the initial equalized assessed value, or

24 each taxable lot, block, tract, or parcel of real property
25 existing at the time tax increment allocation financing
26 was adopted in the redevelopment project area, shall be

1 allocated to and when collected shall be paid by the
2 county collector to the respective affected taxing
3 districts in the manner required by law without regard to

14 assessed value of that parcel has been certified in
15 accordance with Section 11-74.6-40, shall be allocated to
16 and when collected shall be paid to the municipal
17 treasurer, who shall deposit those taxes into a special
18 fund called the special tax allocation fund of the
19 municipality for the purpose of paying redevelopment
20 project costs and obligations incurred in the payment
21 thereof.
22 (d) The municipality may pledge in the ordinance the funds

4provided for in Section 18-8 of the School Code, or the
5evidence-based funding formula, provided for in Section
618-8.15 of the School Code, until all redevelopment project
7costs have been paid as provided for in this Section.
8 Whenever a municipality issues bonds for the purpose of
9financing redevelopment project costs, that municipality may
10provide by ordinance for the appointment of a trustee, which
11may be any trust company within the State, and for the
12establishment of any funds or accounts to be maintained by
13that trustee, as the municipality deems necessary to provide
14for the security and payment of the bonds. If the municipality
15provides for the appointment of a trustee, the trustee shall
16be considered the assignee of any payments assigned by the
17municipality under that ordinance and this Section. Any
18amounts paid to the trustee as assignee shall be deposited
19into the funds or accounts established under the trust
20agreement, and shall be held by the trustee in trust for the
21benefit of the holders of the bonds. The holders of those bonds
22shall have a lien on and a security interest in those funds or
23accounts while the bonds remain outstanding and unpaid. Upon
24retirement of the bonds, the trustee shall pay over any excess
25amounts held to the municipality for deposit in the special

14municipality within 6 months of notification being published
15and mailers being sent shall be eligible for odorous window
16and odorous door replacement. Homes that have been identified
17by the municipality as having odorous windows or doors are not
18required to make said request to the municipality. The right
19to make a claim for replacement and have it considered
20pursuant to this Section shall not be affected by the fact of
21odor-related claims made or odor-related products received
22pursuant to the Residential Sound Insulation Program prior to

12employee of the Aeronautics Division of the Department of
13Transportation; and (iii) 2 employees of the municipality that
14implemented the Residential Sound Insulation Program in
15question. The advisory committee shall determine by majority
16vote which homes contain windows or doors that cause offensive
17odors and thus are eligible for replacement, shall promulgate
18a list of such homes, and shall develop recommendations as to
19the order in which homes are to receive window replacement.
20The recommendations shall include reasonable and objective
21criteria for determining which windows or doors are odorous,
22consideration of the date of odor confirmation for
23prioritization, severity of odor, geography and individual
24hardship, and shall provide such recommendations to the

19Finance Act. In addition, the municipality shall revise its
20specifications for procurement of windows for the Residential
21Sound Insulation Program to address potential off-gassing from
22such windows in future phases of the program. A municipality
23subject to the Section shall not legislate or otherwise
24regulate with regard to indoor air quality monitoring,
25laboratory analysis or replacement requirements, except as
26provided in this Section, but the foregoing restriction shall

1not limit said municipality's taxing power.
2 (c) A home rule unit may not regulate indoor air quality
3monitoring and laboratory analysis, and related mitigation and

21certificate within 10 days after making a written request to
22the chairperson of the board of fire commissioners, or board

10capabilities in each of these dimensions may be tests based on
11industry standards currently in use or equivalent tests
12approved by the Joint Labor-Management Committee of the Office
13of the State Fire Marshal.
14 Physical ability examinations administered under this
15Section shall be conducted with a reasonable number of
16proctors and monitors, open to the public, and subject to
17reasonable regulations of the commission.

19authorities may create a preliminary eligibility register. A
20person shall be placed on the list based upon his or her
21passage of the written examination or the passage of the
22written examination and the physical ability component.
23Passage of the written examination means attaining the minimum
24score set by the commission. Minimum scores should be set by
25the appointing authorities so as to demonstrate a candidate's

15register, an applicant's score on the written examination,
16before any applicable preference points or subjective points
17are applied, shall be at or above the minimum score set by the
18commission. The local appointing authority may prescribe the
19score to qualify for placement on the final eligibility
20register, but the score shall not be less than the minimum
21score set by the commission.
22 The commission shall prepare and keep a register of
23persons whose total score is not less than the minimum score
24for passage and who have passed the physical ability
25examination. These persons shall take rank upon the register
26as candidates in the order of their relative excellence based

SB2435 Enrolled- 810 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b

3other revenues or receipts of the Authority, in order to
4provide money for the Authority or the Service Boards to cover
5any cash flow deficit which the Authority or a Service Board
6anticipates incurring. Any such notes are referred to in this
7Section as "Working Cash Notes". No Working Cash Notes shall

4Working Cash Notes issued at the demand and direction of a
5Service Board or any Working Cash Notes the proceeds of which
6were used for the direct benefit of a Service Board or any
7other Bonds or Notes of the Authority the proceeds of which
8were used for the direct benefit of a Service Board shall
9constitute a reduction of the amount of any other funds
10provided by the Authority to that Service Board. The Authority
11shall, after deducting any costs of issuance, tender the net
12proceeds of any Working Cash Notes issued at the demand and
13direction of a Service Board to such Service Board as soon as
14may be practicable after the proceeds are received. The
15Authority may also issue notes or bonds to pay, refund or
16redeem any of its notes and bonds, including to pay redemption
17premiums or accrued interest on such bonds or notes being
18renewed, paid or refunded, and other costs in connection

20such bonds or notes to pay the legal, financial,
21administrative and other expenses of such authorization,
22issuance, sale or delivery of bonds or notes or to provide or
23increase a debt service reserve fund with respect to any or all
24of its bonds or notes. The Authority may also issue and deliver

2outstanding bonds or notes of the Authority, including any
3accrued interest or redemption premium thereon, without
4advertising or submitting such notes or bonds for public
5bidding.
6 (b) The ordinance providing for the issuance of any such
7bonds or notes shall fix the date or dates of maturity, the
8dates on which interest is payable, any sinking fund account
9or reserve fund account provisions and all other details of
10such bonds or notes and may provide for such covenants or
11agreements necessary or desirable with regard to the issue,
12sale and security of such bonds or notes. The rate or rates of
13interest on its bonds or notes may be fixed or variable and the
14Authority shall determine or provide for the determination of
15the rate or rates of interest of its bonds or notes issued
16under this Act in an ordinance adopted by the Authority prior
17to the issuance thereof, none of which rates of interest shall
18exceed that permitted in the Bond Authorization Act. Interest
19may be payable at such times as are provided for by the Board.
20Bonds and notes issued under this Section may be issued as
21serial or term obligations, shall be of such denomination or
22denominations and form, including interest coupons to be
23attached thereto, be executed in such manner, shall be payable

2redeemable prior to maturity with or without premium, at the
3option of the Authority, upon such terms and conditions as the
4Authority shall fix by the ordinance authorizing the issuance
5of such bonds or notes. No bond anticipation note or any
6renewal thereof shall mature at any time or times exceeding 5
7years from the date of the first issuance of such note. The
8Authority may provide for the registration of bonds or notes
9in the name of the owner as to the principal alone or as to
10both principal and interest, upon such terms and conditions as
11the Authority may determine. The ordinance authorizing bonds
12or notes may provide for the exchange of such bonds or notes
13which are fully registered, as to both principal and interest,
14with bonds or notes which are registerable as to principal
15only. All bonds or notes issued under this Section by the
16Authority other than those issued in exchange for property or
17for bonds or notes of the Authority shall be sold at a price
18which may be at a premium or discount but such that the
19interest cost (excluding any redemption premium) to the
20Authority of the proceeds of an issue of such bonds or notes,
21computed to stated maturity according to standard tables of
22bond values, shall not exceed that permitted in the Bond
23Authorization Act. The Authority shall notify the Governor's
24Office of Management and Budget and the State Comptroller at
25least 30 days before any bond sale and shall file with the

2issuance of bonds at or before the issuance of the bonds. After
3December 31, 1994, any such bonds or notes shall be sold to the
4highest and best bidder on sealed bids as the Authority shall
5deem. As such bonds or notes are to be sold the Authority shall
6advertise for proposals to purchase the bonds or notes which
7advertisement shall be published at least once in a daily
8newspaper of general circulation published in the metropolitan
9region at least 10 days before the time set for the submission
10of bids. The Authority shall have the right to reject any or
11all bids. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this
12Section, Working Cash Notes or bonds or notes to provide funds
13for self-insurance or a joint self-insurance pool or entity
14may be sold either upon competitive bidding or by negotiated
15sale (without any requirement of publication of intention to
16negotiate the sale of such Notes), as the Board shall
17determine by ordinance adopted with the affirmative votes of
18at least 9 Directors. In case any officer whose signature
19appears on any bonds, notes or coupons authorized pursuant to
20this Section shall cease to be such officer before delivery of
21such bonds or notes, such signature shall nevertheless be
22valid and sufficient for all purposes, the same as if such
23officer had remained in office until such delivery. Neither
24the Directors of the Authority nor any person executing any
25bonds or notes thereof shall be liable personally on any such
26bonds or notes or coupons by reason of the issuance thereof.

12pledge or assignment of and lien on or security interest in any
13funds or accounts established or provided for by the ordinance
14of the Authority authorizing the issuance of such bonds or

16for the benefit of holders of bonds or notes of the Authority
17shall be valid and binding from the time the bonds or notes are
18issued without any physical delivery or further act and shall
19be valid and binding as against and prior to the claims of all
20other parties having claims of any kind against the Authority
21or any other person irrespective of whether such other parties

18accounts or the payment of such bonds or notes. Such ordinance
19may also provide limitations on the issuance of additional
20bonds or notes of the Authority. No such bonds or notes of the
21Authority shall constitute a debt of the State of Illinois.

SB2435 Enrolled- 870 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 (a) The State Board of Education shall make rules under
2which local school boards shall determine the eligibility of
3children to receive special education. Such rules shall ensure
4that a free appropriate public education be available to all
5children with disabilities as defined in Section 14-1.02. The
6State Board of Education shall require local school districts
7to administer non-discriminatory procedures or tests to
8English learners coming from homes in which a language other
9than English is used to determine their eligibility to receive
10special education. The placement of low English proficiency
11students in special education programs and facilities shall be
12made in accordance with the test results reflecting the
13student's linguistic, cultural and special education needs.
14For purposes of determining the eligibility of children the
15State Board of Education shall include in the rules
16definitions of "case study", "staff conference",
17"individualized educational program", and "qualified
18specialist" appropriate to each category of children with
19disabilities as defined in this Article. For purposes of
20determining the eligibility of children from homes in which a
21language other than English is used, the State Board of
22Education shall include in the rules definitions for
23"qualified bilingual specialists" and "linguistically and
24culturally appropriate individualized educational programs".

4facilities except with a carefully completed case study fully
5reviewed by professional personnel in a multidisciplinary
6staff conference and only upon the recommendation of qualified
7specialists or a qualified bilingual specialist, if available.
8At the conclusion of the multidisciplinary staff conference,
9the parent of the child shall be given a copy of the
10multidisciplinary conference summary report and
11recommendations, which includes options considered, and be
12informed of his or her their right to obtain an independent
13educational evaluation if he or she disagrees they disagree
14with the evaluation findings conducted or obtained by the
15school district. If the school district's evaluation is shown
16to be inappropriate, the school district shall reimburse the
17parent for the cost of the independent evaluation. The State
18Board of Education shall, with advice from the State Advisory
19Council on Education of Children with Disabilities on the
20inclusion of specific independent educational evaluators,
21prepare a list of suggested independent educational
22evaluators. The State Board of Education shall include on the
23list clinical psychologists licensed pursuant to the Clinical
24Psychologist Licensing Act. Such psychologists shall not be
25paid fees in excess of the amount that would be received by a

SB2435 Enrolled- 872 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1State Board of Education shall supply school districts with
2such list and make the list available to parents at their
3request. School districts shall make the list available to
4parents at the time they are informed of their right to obtain
5an independent educational evaluation. However, the school
6district may initiate an impartial due process hearing under
7this Section within 5 days of any written parent request for an
8independent educational evaluation to show that its evaluation
9is appropriate. If the final decision is that the evaluation
10is appropriate, the parent still has a right to an independent
11educational evaluation, but not at public expense. An
12independent educational evaluation at public expense must be
13completed within 30 days of a parent written request unless
14the school district initiates an impartial due process hearing
15or the parent or school district offers reasonable grounds to
16show that such 30-day 30 day time period should be extended. If
17the due process hearing decision indicates that the parent is
18entitled to an independent educational evaluation, it must be
19completed within 30 days of the decision unless the parent or
20the school district offers reasonable grounds to show that
21such 30-day 30 day period should be extended. If a parent
22disagrees with the summary report or recommendations of the
23multidisciplinary conference or the findings of any
24educational evaluation which results therefrom, the school
25district shall not proceed with a placement based upon such
26evaluation and the child shall remain in his or her regular

1classroom setting. No child shall be eligible for admission to
2a special class for children with a mental disability who are
3educable or for children with a mental disability who are
4trainable except with a psychological evaluation and
5recommendation by a school psychologist. Consent shall be
6obtained from the parent of a child before any evaluation is
7conducted. If consent is not given by the parent or if the
8parent disagrees with the findings of the evaluation, then the
9school district may initiate an impartial due process hearing
10under this Section. The school district may evaluate the child
11if that is the decision resulting from the impartial due
12process hearing and the decision is not appealed or if the
13decision is affirmed on appeal. The determination of
14eligibility shall be made and the IEP meeting shall be
15completed within 60 school days from the date of written
16parental consent. In those instances when written parental
17consent is obtained with fewer than 60 pupil attendance days
18left in the school year, the eligibility determination shall
19be made and the IEP meeting shall be completed prior to the
20first day of the following school year. Special education and
21related services must be provided in accordance with the

10indicate to the parent and the State Board of Education the
11nature of the services the child will receive for the regular
12school term while waiting placement in the appropriate special
13education class. At the child's initial IEP meeting and at
14each annual review meeting, the child's IEP team shall provide
15the child's parent or guardian with a written notification
16that informs the parent or guardian that the IEP team is

3that provide similar services and the services that these
4other schools provide. This notification shall include without
5limitation information on school services, school admissions
6criteria, and school contact information.
7 In the development of the individualized education program
8for a student who has a disability on the autism spectrum
9(which includes autistic disorder, Asperger's disorder,
10pervasive developmental disorder not otherwise specified,
11childhood disintegrative disorder, and Rett Syndrome, as
12defined in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental
13Disorders, fourth edition (DSM-IV, 2000)), the IEP team shall
14consider all of the following factors:
15 (1) The verbal and nonverbal communication needs of
16 the child.
17 (2) The need to develop social interaction skills and
18 proficiencies.
19 (3) The needs resulting from the child's unusual
20 responses to sensory experiences.
21 (4) The needs resulting from resistance to
22 environmental change or change in daily routines.
23 (5) The needs resulting from engagement in repetitive
24 activities and stereotyped movements.
25 (6) The need for any positive behavioral
26 interventions, strategies, and supports to address any

SB2435 Enrolled- 876 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 behavioral difficulties resulting from autism spectrum
2 disorder.
3 (7) Other needs resulting from the child's disability
4 that impact progress in the general curriculum, including
5 social and emotional development.
6Public Act 95-257 does not create any new entitlement to a
7service, program, or benefit, but must not affect any
8entitlement to a service, program, or benefit created by any
9other law.
10 If the student may be eligible to participate in the
11Home-Based Support Services Program for Adults with Mental
12Disabilities authorized under the Developmental Disability and
13Mental Disability Services Act upon becoming an adult, the
14student's individualized education program shall include plans
15for (i) determining the student's eligibility for those
16home-based services, (ii) enrolling the student in the program
17of home-based services, and (iii) developing a plan for the
18student's most effective use of the home-based services after
19the student becomes an adult and no longer receives special
20educational services under this Article. The plans developed
21under this paragraph shall include specific actions to be
22taken by specified individuals, agencies, or officials.
23 (c) In the development of the individualized education
24program for a student who is functionally blind, it shall be
25presumed that proficiency in Braille reading and writing is
26essential for the student's satisfactory educational progress.

SB2435 Enrolled- 877 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1For purposes of this subsection, the State Board of Education
2shall determine the criteria for a student to be classified as
3functionally blind. Students who are not currently identified
4as functionally blind who are also entitled to Braille
5instruction include: (i) those whose vision loss is so severe
6that they are unable to read and write at a level comparable to
7their peers solely through the use of vision, and (ii) those
8who show evidence of progressive vision loss that may result
9in functional blindness. Each student who is functionally
10blind shall be entitled to Braille reading and writing
11instruction that is sufficient to enable the student to
12communicate with the same level of proficiency as other
13students of comparable ability. Instruction should be provided
14to the extent that the student is physically and cognitively
15able to use Braille. Braille instruction may be used in
16combination with other special education services appropriate
17to the student's educational needs. The assessment of each
18student who is functionally blind for the purpose of
19developing the student's individualized education program
20shall include documentation of the student's strengths and
21weaknesses in Braille skills. Each person assisting in the
22development of the individualized education program for a
23student who is functionally blind shall receive information
24describing the benefits of Braille instruction. The
25individualized education program for each student who is
26functionally blind shall specify the appropriate learning

SB2435 Enrolled- 878 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1medium or media based on the assessment report.
2 (d) To the maximum extent appropriate, the placement shall
3provide the child with the opportunity to be educated with
4children who do not have a disability; provided that children
5with disabilities who are recommended to be placed into
6regular education classrooms are provided with supplementary
7services to assist the children with disabilities to benefit
8from the regular classroom instruction and are included on the
9teacher's regular education class register. Subject to the
10limitation of the preceding sentence, placement in special
11classes, separate schools or other removal of the child with a
12disability from the regular educational environment shall
13occur only when the nature of the severity of the disability is
14such that education in the regular classes with the use of
15supplementary aids and services cannot be achieved
16satisfactorily. The placement of English learners with
17disabilities shall be in non-restrictive environments which
18provide for integration with peers who do not have
19disabilities in bilingual classrooms. Annually, each January,
20school districts shall report data on students from
21non-English speaking backgrounds receiving special education
22and related services in public and private facilities as
23prescribed in Section 2-3.30. If there is a disagreement
24between parties involved regarding the special education
25placement of any child, either in-state or out-of-state, the
26placement is subject to impartial due process procedures

SB2435 Enrolled- 879 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1described in Article 10 of the Rules and Regulations to Govern
2the Administration and Operation of Special Education.
3 (e) No child who comes from a home in which a language
4other than English is the principal language used may be
5assigned to any class or program under this Article until he
6has been given, in the principal language used by the child and
7used in his home, tests reasonably related to his cultural
8environment. All testing and evaluation materials and
9procedures utilized for evaluation and placement shall not be
10linguistically, racially or culturally discriminatory.
11 (f) Nothing in this Article shall be construed to require
12any child to undergo any physical examination or medical
13treatment whose parents object thereto on the grounds that
14such examination or treatment conflicts with his religious
15beliefs.
16 (g) School boards or their designee shall provide to the
17parents of a child prior written notice of any decision (a)
18proposing to initiate or change, or (b) refusing to initiate
19or change, the identification, evaluation, or educational
20placement of the child or the provision of a free appropriate
21public education to their child, and the reasons therefor.
22Such written notification shall also inform the parent of the
23opportunity to present complaints with respect to any matter
24relating to the educational placement of the student, or the
25provision of a free appropriate public education and to have
26an impartial due process hearing on the complaint. The notice

SB2435 Enrolled- 880 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1shall inform the parents in the parents' native language,
2unless it is clearly not feasible to do so, of their rights and
3all procedures available pursuant to this Act and the federal
4Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act of
52004 (Public Law 108-446); it shall be the responsibility of
6the State Superintendent to develop uniform notices setting
7forth the procedures available under this Act and the federal
8Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act of
92004 (Public Law 108-446) to be used by all school boards. The
10notice shall also inform the parents of the availability upon
11request of a list of free or low-cost legal and other relevant
12services available locally to assist parents in initiating an
13impartial due process hearing. The State Superintendent shall
14revise the uniform notices required by this subsection (g) to
15reflect current law and procedures at least once every 2
16years. Any parent who is deaf, or does not normally
17communicate using spoken English, who participates in a
18meeting with a representative of a local educational agency
19for the purposes of developing an individualized educational
20program shall be entitled to the services of an interpreter.
21The State Board of Education must adopt rules to establish the
22criteria, standards, and competencies for a bilingual language
23interpreter who attends an individualized education program
24meeting under this subsection to assist a parent who has
25limited English proficiency.
26 (g-5) For purposes of this subsection (g-5), "qualified

SB2435 Enrolled- 881 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1professional" means an individual who holds credentials to
2evaluate the child in the domain or domains for which an
3evaluation is sought or an intern working under the direct
4supervision of a qualified professional, including a master's
5or doctoral degree candidate.
6 To ensure that a parent can participate fully and
7effectively with school personnel in the development of
8appropriate educational and related services for his or her
9child, the parent, an independent educational evaluator, or a
10qualified professional retained by or on behalf of a parent or
11child must be afforded reasonable access to educational
12facilities, personnel, classrooms, and buildings and to the
13child as provided in this subsection (g-5). The requirements
14of this subsection (g-5) apply to any public school facility,
15building, or program and to any facility, building, or program
16supported in whole or in part by public funds. Prior to
17visiting a school, school building, or school facility, the
18parent, independent educational evaluator, or qualified
19professional may be required by the school district to inform
20the building principal or supervisor in writing of the
21proposed visit, the purpose of the visit, and the approximate
22duration of the visit. The visitor and the school district
23shall arrange the visit or visits at times that are mutually
24agreeable. Visitors shall comply with school safety, security,
25and visitation policies at all times. School district
26visitation policies must not conflict with this subsection

SB2435 Enrolled- 882 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1(g-5). Visitors shall be required to comply with the
2requirements of applicable privacy laws, including those laws
3protecting the confidentiality of education records such as
4the federal Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act and the
5Illinois School Student Records Act. The visitor shall not
6disrupt the educational process.
7 (1) A parent must be afforded reasonable access of
8 sufficient duration and scope for the purpose of observing

18 Sec. 18-8.15. Evidence-Based Funding for student success
19for the 2017-2018 and subsequent school years.
20 (a) General provisions.
21 (1) The purpose of this Section is to ensure that, by
22 June 30, 2027 and beyond, this State has a kindergarten
23 through grade 12 public education system with the capacity
24 to ensure the educational development of all persons to
25 the limits of their capacities in accordance with Section

SB2435 Enrolled- 884 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 1 of Article X of the Constitution of the State of
2 Illinois. To accomplish that objective, this Section
3 creates a method of funding public education that is
4 evidence-based; is sufficient to ensure every student
5 receives a meaningful opportunity to learn irrespective of
6 race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender, or
7 community-income level; and is sustainable and
8 predictable. When fully funded under this Section, every
9 school shall have the resources, based on what the
10 evidence indicates is needed, to:
11 (A) provide all students with a high quality
12 education that offers the academic, enrichment, social
13 and emotional support, technical, and career-focused
14 programs that will allow them to become competitive
15 workers, responsible parents, productive citizens of
16 this State, and active members of our national
17 democracy;
18 (B) ensure all students receive the education they
19 need to graduate from high school with the skills
20 required to pursue post-secondary education and
21 training for a rewarding career;
22 (C) reduce, with a goal of eliminating, the
23 achievement gap between at-risk and non-at-risk
24 students by raising the performance of at-risk
25 students and not by reducing standards; and
26 (D) ensure this State satisfies its obligation to

SB2435 Enrolled- 885 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 assume the primary responsibility to fund public
2 education and simultaneously relieve the
3 disproportionate burden placed on local property taxes
4 to fund schools.
5 (2) The Evidence-Based Funding formula under this
6 Section shall be applied to all Organizational Units in
7 this State. The Evidence-Based Funding formula outlined in
8 this Act is based on the formula outlined in Senate Bill 1
9 of the 100th General Assembly, as passed by both
10 legislative chambers. As further defined and described in
11 this Section, there are 4 major components of the
12 Evidence-Based Funding model:
13 (A) First, the model calculates a unique Adequacy
14 Target for each Organizational Unit in this State that
15 considers the costs to implement research-based
16 activities, the unit's student demographics, and
17 regional wage differences.
18 (B) Second, the model calculates each
19 Organizational Unit's Local Capacity, or the amount
20 each Organizational Unit is assumed to contribute
21 toward its Adequacy Target from local resources.
22 (C) Third, the model calculates how much funding
23 the State currently contributes to the Organizational
24 Unit and adds that to the unit's Local Capacity to
25 determine the unit's overall current adequacy of
26 funding.

SB2435 Enrolled- 886 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 (D) Finally, the model's distribution method
2 allocates new State funding to those Organizational
3 Units that are least well-funded, considering both
4 Local Capacity and State funding, in relation to their
5 Adequacy Target.
6 (3) An Organizational Unit receiving any funding under
7 this Section may apply those funds to any fund so received
8 for which that Organizational Unit is authorized to make
9 expenditures by law.
10 (4) As used in this Section, the following terms shall
11 have the meanings ascribed in this paragraph (4):
12 "Adequacy Target" is defined in paragraph (1) of
13 subsection (b) of this Section.
14 "Adjusted EAV" is defined in paragraph (4) of
15 subsection (d) of this Section.
16 "Adjusted Local Capacity Target" is defined in
17 paragraph (3) of subsection (c) of this Section.
18 "Adjusted Operating Tax Rate" means a tax rate for all
19 Organizational Units, for which the State Superintendent
20 shall calculate and subtract for the Operating Tax Rate a
21 transportation rate based on total expenses for
22 transportation services under this Code, as reported on

24 Transportation Services, function 2550 in both the
25 Education and Transportation funds and functions 4110 and
26 4120 in the Transportation fund, less any corresponding

2 net adjustments for prior years for regular, vocational,
3 or special education transportation reimbursement pursuant
4 to Section 29-5 or subsection (b) of Section 14-13.01 of
5 this Code divided by the Adjusted EAV. If an
6 Organizational Unit's corresponding fiscal year State of
7 Illinois scheduled payments excluding net adjustments for
8 prior years for regular, vocational, or special education
9 transportation reimbursement pursuant to Section 29-5 or
10 subsection (b) of Section 14-13.01 of this Code exceed the
11 total transportation expenses, as defined in this
12 paragraph, no transportation rate shall be subtracted from
13 the Operating Tax Rate.
14 "Allocation Rate" is defined in paragraph (3) of
15 subsection (g) of this Section.
16 "Alternative School" means a public school that is
17 created and operated by a regional superintendent of
18 schools and approved by the State Board.
19 "Applicable Tax Rate" is defined in paragraph (1) of
20 subsection (d) of this Section.

3 "At-risk student" means a student who is at risk of
4 not meeting the Illinois Learning Standards or not
5 graduating from elementary or high school and who
6 demonstrates a need for vocational support or social
7 services beyond that provided by the regular school
8 program. All students included in an Organizational Unit's
9 Low-Income Count, as well as all English learner and
10 disabled students attending the Organizational Unit, shall
11 be considered at-risk students under this Section.
12 "Average Student Enrollment" or "ASE" for fiscal year
13 2018 means, for an Organizational Unit, the greater of the
14 average number of students (grades K through 12) reported
15 to the State Board as enrolled in the Organizational Unit
16 on October 1 in the immediately preceding school year,
17 plus the pre-kindergarten students who receive special
18 education services of 2 or more hours a day as reported to
19 the State Board on December 1 in the immediately preceding
20 school year, or the average number of students (grades K
21 through 12) reported to the State Board as enrolled in the
22 Organizational Unit on October 1, plus the
23 pre-kindergarten students who receive special education
24 services of 2 or more hours a day as reported to the State
25 Board on December 1, for each of the immediately preceding
26 3 school years. For fiscal year 2019 and each subsequent

SB2435 Enrolled- 889 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 fiscal year, "Average Student Enrollment" or "ASE" means,
2 for an Organizational Unit, the greater of the average
3 number of students (grades K through 12) reported to the
4 State Board as enrolled in the Organizational Unit on
5 October 1 and March 1 in the immediately preceding school
6 year, plus the pre-kindergarten students who receive
7 special education services as reported to the State Board
8 on October 1 and March 1 in the immediately preceding
9 school year, or the average number of students (grades K
10 through 12) reported to the State Board as enrolled in the
11 Organizational Unit on October 1 and March 1, plus the
12 pre-kindergarten students who receive special education
13 services as reported to the State Board on October 1 and
14 March 1, for each of the immediately preceding 3 school
15 years. For the purposes of this definition, "enrolled in
16 the Organizational Unit" means the number of students
17 reported to the State Board who are enrolled in schools
18 within the Organizational Unit that the student attends or
19 would attend if not placed or transferred to another
20 school or program to receive needed services. For the
21 purposes of calculating "ASE", all students, grades K
22 through 12, excluding those attending kindergarten for a
23 half day and students attending an alternative education
24 program operated by a regional office of education or
25 intermediate service center, shall be counted as 1.0. All
26 students attending kindergarten for a half day shall be

SB2435 Enrolled- 890 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 counted as 0.5, unless in 2017 by June 15 or by March 1 in
2 subsequent years, the school district reports to the State
3 Board of Education the intent to implement full-day
4 kindergarten district-wide for all students, then all
5 students attending kindergarten shall be counted as 1.0.
6 Special education pre-kindergarten students shall be
7 counted as 0.5 each. If the State Board does not collect or
8 has not collected both an October 1 and March 1 enrollment
9 count by grade or a December 1 collection of special
10 education pre-kindergarten students as of August 31, 2017
11 (the effective date of Public Act 100-465), it shall
12 establish such collection for all future years. For any
13 year in which a count by grade level was collected only
14 once, that count shall be used as the single count
15 available for computing a 3-year average ASE. Funding for
16 programs operated by a regional office of education or an
17 intermediate service center must be calculated using the
18 Evidence-Based Funding formula under this Section for the
19 2019-2020 school year and each subsequent school year
20 until separate adequacy formulas are developed and adopted
21 for each type of program. ASE for a program operated by a
22 regional office of education or an intermediate service
23 center must be determined by the March 1 enrollment for
24 the program. For the 2019-2020 school year, the ASE used
25 in the calculation must be the first-year ASE and, in that
26 year only, the assignment of students served by a regional

SB2435 Enrolled- 891 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 office of education or intermediate service center shall
2 not result in a reduction of the March enrollment for any
3 school district. For the 2020-2021 school year, the ASE
4 must be the greater of the current-year ASE or the 2-year
5 average ASE. Beginning with the 2021-2022 school year, the
6 ASE must be the greater of the current-year ASE or the
7 3-year average ASE. School districts shall submit the data
8 for the ASE calculation to the State Board within 45 days
9 of the dates required in this Section for submission of
10 enrollment data in order for it to be included in the ASE
11 calculation. For fiscal year 2018 only, the ASE
12 calculation shall include only enrollment taken on October
13 1.

18 for the first 3 years of Evidence-Based Funding
19 implementation, be the CWI initially developed by the
20 National Center for Education Statistics, as most recently
21 updated by Texas A & M University. In the fourth and
22 subsequent years of Evidence-Based Funding implementation,
23 the State Superintendent shall re-determine the CWI using
24 a similar methodology to that identified in the Texas A & M
25 University study, with adjustments made no less frequently

18 (3) For calculating the salaries included within the
19 Essential Elements, the State Superintendent shall
20 annually calculate average salaries to the nearest dollar
21 using the employment information system data maintained by
22 the State Board, limited to public schools only and
23 excluding special education and vocational cooperatives,
24 schools operated by the Department of Juvenile Justice,
25 and charter schools, for the following positions:
26 (A) Teacher for grades K through 8.

SB2435 Enrolled- 917 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 (B) Teacher for grades 9 through 12.
2 (C) Teacher for grades K through 12.
3 (D) Guidance counselor for grades K through 8.

6 (G) Social worker.
7 (H) Psychologist.
8 (I) Librarian.
9 (J) Nurse.
10 (K) Principal.
11 (L) Assistant principal.
12 For the purposes of this paragraph (3), "teacher"
13 includes core teachers, specialist and elective teachers,
14 instructional facilitators, tutors, special education
15 teachers, pupil support staff teachers, English learner
16 teachers, extended day teachers, and summer school
17 teachers. Where specific grade data is not required for
18 the Essential Elements, the average salary for
19 corresponding positions shall apply. For substitute
20 teachers, the average teacher salary for grades K through
21 12 shall apply.
22 For calculating the salaries included within the
23 Essential Elements for positions not included within EIS
24 Data, the following salaries shall be used in the first
25 year of implementation of Evidence-Based Funding:
26 (i) school site staff, $30,000; and

SB2435 Enrolled- 918 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 (ii) non-instructional assistant, instructional
2 assistant, library aide, library media tech, or
3 supervisory aide: $25,000.
4 In the second and subsequent years of implementation
5 of Evidence-Based Funding, the amounts in items (i) and
6 (ii) of this paragraph (3) shall annually increase by the
7 ECI.
8 The salary amounts for the Essential Elements
9 determined pursuant to subparagraphs (A) through (L), (S)
10 and (T), and (V) through (X) of paragraph (2) of
11 subsection (b) of this Section shall be multiplied by a
12 Regionalization Factor.
13 (c) Local Capacity calculation.
14 (1) Each Organizational Unit's Local Capacity
15 represents an amount of funding it is assumed to
16 contribute toward its Adequacy Target for purposes of the
17 Evidence-Based Funding formula calculation. "Local
18 Capacity" means either (i) the Organizational Unit's Local
19 Capacity Target as calculated in accordance with paragraph
20 (2) of this subsection (c) if its Real Receipts are equal
21 to or less than its Local Capacity Target or (ii) the
22 Organizational Unit's Adjusted Local Capacity, as
23 calculated in accordance with paragraph (3) of this
24 subsection (c) if Real Receipts are more than its Local
25 Capacity Target.
26 (2) "Local Capacity Target" means, for an

SB2435 Enrolled- 919 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 Organizational Unit, that dollar amount that is obtained
2 by multiplying its Adequacy Target by its Local Capacity
3 Ratio.
4 (A) An Organizational Unit's Local Capacity
5 Percentage is the conversion of the Organizational
6 Unit's Local Capacity Ratio, as such ratio is
7 determined in accordance with subparagraph (B) of this
8 paragraph (2), into a cumulative distribution
9 resulting in a percentile ranking to determine each
10 Organizational Unit's relative position to all other
11 Organizational Units in this State. The calculation of
12 Local Capacity Percentage is described in subparagraph
13 (C) of this paragraph (2).
14 (B) An Organizational Unit's Local Capacity Ratio
15 in a given year is the percentage obtained by dividing
16 its Adjusted EAV or PTELL EAV, whichever is less, by
17 its Adequacy Target, with the resulting ratio further
18 adjusted as follows:
19 (i) for Organizational Units serving grades
20 kindergarten through 12 and Hybrid Districts, no
21 further adjustments shall be made;
22 (ii) for Organizational Units serving grades
23 kindergarten through 8, the ratio shall be
24 multiplied by 9/13;
25 (iii) for Organizational Units serving grades
26 9 through 12, the Local Capacity Ratio shall be

SB2435 Enrolled- 920 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 multiplied by 4/13; and
2 (iv) for an Organizational Unit with a
3 different grade configuration than those specified
4 in items (i) through (iii) of this subparagraph
5 (B), the State Superintendent shall determine a
6 comparable adjustment based on the grades served.
7 (C) The Local Capacity Percentage is equal to the
8 percentile ranking of the district. Local Capacity
9 Percentage converts each Organizational Unit's Local
10 Capacity Ratio to a cumulative distribution resulting
11 in a percentile ranking to determine each
12 Organizational Unit's relative position to all other
13 Organizational Units in this State. The Local Capacity
14 Percentage cumulative distribution resulting in a
15 percentile ranking for each Organizational Unit shall
16 be calculated using the standard normal distribution
17 of the score in relation to the weighted mean and
18 weighted standard deviation and Local Capacity Ratios
19 of all Organizational Units. If the value assigned to
20 any Organizational Unit is in excess of 90%, the value
21 shall be adjusted to 90%. For Laboratory Schools, the
22 Local Capacity Percentage shall be set at 10% in
23 recognition of the absence of EAV and resources from
24 the public university that are allocated to the
25 Laboratory School. For programs operated by a regional
26 office of education or an intermediate service center,

SB2435 Enrolled- 921 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 the Local Capacity Percentage must be set at 10% in
2 recognition of the absence of EAV and resources from
3 school districts that are allocated to the regional
4 office of education or intermediate service center.
5 The weighted mean for the Local Capacity Percentage
6 shall be determined by multiplying each Organizational
7 Unit's Local Capacity Ratio times the ASE for the unit
8 creating a weighted value, summing the weighted values
9 of all Organizational Units, and dividing by the total
10 ASE of all Organizational Units. The weighted standard
11 deviation shall be determined by taking the square
12 root of the weighted variance of all Organizational
13 Units' Local Capacity Ratio, where the variance is
14 calculated by squaring the difference between each
15 unit's Local Capacity Ratio and the weighted mean,
16 then multiplying the variance for each unit times the
17 ASE for the unit to create a weighted variance for each
18 unit, then summing all units' weighted variance and
19 dividing by the total ASE of all units.
20 (D) For any Organizational Unit, the
21 Organizational Unit's Adjusted Local Capacity Target
22 shall be reduced by either (i) the school board's
23 remaining contribution pursuant to paragraph (ii) of
24 subsection (b-4) of Section 16-158 of the Illinois
25 Pension Code in a given year or (ii) the board of
26 education's remaining contribution pursuant to

SB2435 Enrolled- 922 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 paragraph (iv) of subsection (b) of Section 17-129 of
2 the Illinois Pension Code absent the employer normal
3 cost portion of the required contribution and amount
4 allowed pursuant to subdivision (3) of Section
5 17-142.1 of the Illinois Pension Code in a given year.
6 In the preceding sentence, item (i) shall be certified
7 to the State Board of Education by the Teachers'
8 Retirement System of the State of Illinois and item
9 (ii) shall be certified to the State Board of
10 Education by the Public School Teachers' Pension and
11 Retirement Fund of the City of Chicago.
12 (3) If an Organizational Unit's Real Receipts are more
13 than its Local Capacity Target, then its Local Capacity
14 shall equal an Adjusted Local Capacity Target as
15 calculated in accordance with this paragraph (3). The
16 Adjusted Local Capacity Target is calculated as the sum of
17 the Organizational Unit's Local Capacity Target and its
18 Real Receipts Adjustment. The Real Receipts Adjustment
19 equals the Organizational Unit's Real Receipts less its
20 Local Capacity Target, with the resulting figure
21 multiplied by the Local Capacity Percentage.
22 As used in this paragraph (3), "Real Percent of
23 Adequacy" means the sum of an Organizational Unit's Real
24 Receipts, CPPRT, and Base Funding Minimum, with the
25 resulting figure divided by the Organizational Unit's
26 Adequacy Target.

SB2435 Enrolled- 923 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 (d) Calculation of Real Receipts, EAV, and Adjusted EAV
2for purposes of the Local Capacity calculation.
3 (1) An Organizational Unit's Real Receipts are the
4 product of its Applicable Tax Rate and its Adjusted EAV.
5 An Organizational Unit's Applicable Tax Rate is its
6 Adjusted Operating Tax Rate for property within the
7 Organizational Unit.
8 (2) The State Superintendent shall calculate the
9 equalized assessed valuation, or EAV, of all taxable
10 property of each Organizational Unit as of September 30 of
11 the previous year in accordance with paragraph (3) of this
12 subsection (d). The State Superintendent shall then
13 determine the Adjusted EAV of each Organizational Unit in
14 accordance with paragraph (4) of this subsection (d),
15 which Adjusted EAV figure shall be used for the purposes
16 of calculating Local Capacity.
17 (3) To calculate Real Receipts and EAV, the Department
18 of Revenue shall supply to the State Superintendent the
19 value as equalized or assessed by the Department of
20 Revenue of all taxable property of every Organizational
21 Unit, together with (i) the applicable tax rate used in
22 extending taxes for the funds of the Organizational Unit
23 as of September 30 of the previous year and (ii) the
24 limiting rate for all Organizational Units subject to
25 property tax extension limitations as imposed under PTELL.
26 (A) The Department of Revenue shall add to the

SB2435 Enrolled- 924 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 equalized assessed value of all taxable property of
2 each Organizational Unit situated entirely or
3 partially within a county that is or was subject to the
4 provisions of Section 15-176 or 15-177 of the Property
5 Tax Code (i) an amount equal to the total amount by
6 which the homestead exemption allowed under Section
7 15-176 or 15-177 of the Property Tax Code for real
8 property situated in that Organizational Unit exceeds
9 the total amount that would have been allowed in that
10 Organizational Unit if the maximum reduction under
11 Section 15-176 was (I) $4,500 in Cook County or $3,500
12 in all other counties in tax year 2003 or (II) $5,000
13 in all counties in tax year 2004 and thereafter and
14 (ii) an amount equal to the aggregate amount for the
15 taxable year of all additional exemptions under
16 Section 15-175 of the Property Tax Code for owners
17 with a household income of $30,000 or less. The county
18 clerk of any county that is or was subject to the
19 provisions of Section 15-176 or 15-177 of the Property
20 Tax Code shall annually calculate and certify to the
21 Department of Revenue for each Organizational Unit all
22 homestead exemption amounts under Section 15-176 or
23 15-177 of the Property Tax Code and all amounts of
24 additional exemptions under Section 15-175 of the
25 Property Tax Code for owners with a household income
26 of $30,000 or less. It is the intent of this

SB2435 Enrolled- 925 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 subparagraph (A) that if the general homestead
2 exemption for a parcel of property is determined under
3 Section 15-176 or 15-177 of the Property Tax Code
4 rather than Section 15-175, then the calculation of
5 EAV shall not be affected by the difference, if any,
6 between the amount of the general homestead exemption
7 allowed for that parcel of property under Section
8 15-176 or 15-177 of the Property Tax Code and the
9 amount that would have been allowed had the general
10 homestead exemption for that parcel of property been
11 determined under Section 15-175 of the Property Tax
12 Code. It is further the intent of this subparagraph
13 (A) that if additional exemptions are allowed under
14 Section 15-175 of the Property Tax Code for owners
15 with a household income of less than $30,000, then the
16 calculation of EAV shall not be affected by the
17 difference, if any, because of those additional
18 exemptions.
19 (B) With respect to any part of an Organizational
20 Unit within a redevelopment project area in respect to
21 which a municipality has adopted tax increment
22 allocation financing pursuant to the Tax Increment
23 Allocation Redevelopment Act, Division 74.4 of Article
24 11 of the Illinois Municipal Code, or the Industrial
25 Jobs Recovery Law, Division 74.6 of Article 11 of the
26 Illinois Municipal Code, no part of the current EAV of

SB2435 Enrolled- 926 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 real property located in any such project area that is
2 attributable to an increase above the total initial
3 EAV of such property shall be used as part of the EAV
4 of the Organizational Unit, until such time as all
5 redevelopment project costs have been paid, as
6 provided in Section 11-74.4-8 of the Tax Increment
7 Allocation Redevelopment Act or in Section 11-74.6-35
8 of the Industrial Jobs Recovery Law. For the purpose
9 of the EAV of the Organizational Unit, the total
10 initial EAV or the current EAV, whichever is lower,
11 shall be used until such time as all redevelopment
12 project costs have been paid.
13 (B-5) The real property equalized assessed
14 valuation for a school district shall be adjusted by
15 subtracting from the real property value, as equalized
16 or assessed by the Department of Revenue, for the
17 district an amount computed by dividing the amount of
18 any abatement of taxes under Section 18-170 of the
19 Property Tax Code by 3.00% for a district maintaining
20 grades kindergarten through 12, by 2.30% for a
21 district maintaining grades kindergarten through 8, or
22 by 1.05% for a district maintaining grades 9 through
23 12 and adjusted by an amount computed by dividing the
24 amount of any abatement of taxes under subsection (a)
25 of Section 18-165 of the Property Tax Code by the same
26 percentage rates for district type as specified in

SB2435 Enrolled- 927 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 this subparagraph (B-5).
2 (C) For Organizational Units that are Hybrid
3 Districts, the State Superintendent shall use the
4 lesser of the adjusted equalized assessed valuation
5 for property within the partial elementary unit
6 district for elementary purposes, as defined in
7 Article 11E of this Code, or the adjusted equalized
8 assessed valuation for property within the partial
9 elementary unit district for high school purposes, as
10 defined in Article 11E of this Code.
11 (4) An Organizational Unit's Adjusted EAV shall be the
12 average of its EAV over the immediately preceding 3 years
13 or its EAV in the immediately preceding year if the EAV in
14 the immediately preceding year has declined by 10% or more
15 compared to the 3-year average. In the event of
16 Organizational Unit reorganization, consolidation, or
17 annexation, the Organizational Unit's Adjusted EAV for the
18 first 3 years after such change shall be as follows: the
19 most current EAV shall be used in the first year, the
20 average of a 2-year EAV or its EAV in the immediately
21 preceding year if the EAV declines by 10% or more compared
22 to the 2-year average for the second year, and a 3-year
23 average EAV or its EAV in the immediately preceding year
24 if the Adjusted EAV declines by 10% or more compared to the
25 3-year average for the third year. For any school district
26 whose EAV in the immediately preceding year is used in

SB2435 Enrolled- 928 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 calculations, in the following year, the Adjusted EAV
2 shall be the average of its EAV over the immediately
3 preceding 2 years or the immediately preceding year if
4 that year represents a decline of 10% or more compared to
5 the 2-year average.
6 "PTELL EAV" means a figure calculated by the State
7 Board for Organizational Units subject to PTELL as
8 described in this paragraph (4) for the purposes of
9 calculating an Organizational Unit's Local Capacity Ratio.
10 Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph (4), the
11 PTELL EAV of an Organizational Unit shall be equal to the
12 product of the equalized assessed valuation last used in
13 the calculation of general State aid under Section 18-8.05
14 of this Code (now repealed) or Evidence-Based Funding
15 under this Section and the Organizational Unit's Extension
16 Limitation Ratio. If an Organizational Unit has approved
17 or does approve an increase in its limiting rate, pursuant
18 to Section 18-190 of the Property Tax Code, affecting the
19 Base Tax Year, the PTELL EAV shall be equal to the product
20 of the equalized assessed valuation last used in the
21 calculation of general State aid under Section 18-8.05 of
22 this Code (now repealed) or Evidence-Based Funding under
23 this Section multiplied by an amount equal to one plus the
24 percentage increase, if any, in the Consumer Price Index
25 for All Urban Consumers for all items published by the
26 United States Department of Labor for the 12-month

SB2435 Enrolled- 929 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 calendar year preceding the Base Tax Year, plus the
2 equalized assessed valuation of new property, annexed
3 property, and recovered tax increment value and minus the
4 equalized assessed valuation of disconnected property.
5 As used in this paragraph (4), "new property" and
6 "recovered tax increment value" shall have the meanings
7 set forth in the Property Tax Extension Limitation Law.
8 (e) Base Funding Minimum calculation.
9 (1) For the 2017-2018 school year, the Base Funding
10 Minimum of an Organizational Unit or a Specially Funded
11 Unit shall be the amount of State funds distributed to the
12 Organizational Unit or Specially Funded Unit during the
13 2016-2017 school year prior to any adjustments and
14 specified appropriation amounts described in this
15 paragraph (1) from the following Sections, as calculated
16 by the State Superintendent: Section 18-8.05 of this Code
17 (now repealed); Section 5 of Article 224 of Public Act
18 99-524 (equity grants); Section 14-7.02b of this Code
19 (funding for children requiring special education
20 services); Section 14-13.01 of this Code (special
21 education facilities and staffing), except for
22 reimbursement of the cost of transportation pursuant to
23 Section 14-13.01; Section 14C-12 of this Code (English
24 learners); and Section 18-4.3 of this Code (summer
25 school), based on an appropriation level of $13,121,600.
26 For a school district organized under Article 34 of this

SB2435 Enrolled- 930 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 Code, the Base Funding Minimum also includes (i) the funds
2 allocated to the school district pursuant to Section 1D-1
3 of this Code attributable to funding programs authorized
4 by the Sections of this Code listed in the preceding
5 sentence and (ii) the difference between (I) the funds
6 allocated to the school district pursuant to Section 1D-1
7 of this Code attributable to the funding programs
8 authorized by Section 14-7.02 (non-public special
9 education reimbursement), subsection (b) of Section
10 14-13.01 (special education transportation), Section 29-5
11 (transportation), Section 2-3.80 (agricultural
12 education), Section 2-3.66 (truants' alternative
13 education), Section 2-3.62 (educational service centers),
14 and Section 14-7.03 (special education - orphanage) of
15 this Code and Section 15 of the Childhood Hunger Relief
16 Act (free breakfast program) and (II) the school
17 district's actual expenditures for its non-public special
18 education, special education transportation,
19 transportation programs, agricultural education, truants'
20 alternative education, services that would otherwise be
21 performed by a regional office of education, special
22 education orphanage expenditures, and free breakfast, as
23 most recently calculated and reported pursuant to
24 subsection (f) of Section 1D-1 of this Code. The Base
25 Funding Minimum for Glenwood Academy shall be $625,500.
26 For programs operated by a regional office of education or

SB2435 Enrolled- 931 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 an intermediate service center, the Base Funding Minimum
2 must be the total amount of State funds allocated to those
3 programs in the 2018-2019 school year and amounts provided
4 pursuant to Article 34 of Public Act 100-586 and Section
5 3-16 of this Code. All programs established after June 5,
6 2019 (the effective date of Public Act 101-10) and
7 administered by a regional office of education or an
8 intermediate service center must have an initial Base
9 Funding Minimum set to an amount equal to the first-year
10 ASE multiplied by the amount of per pupil funding received
11 in the previous school year by the lowest funded similar
12 existing program type. If the enrollment for a program
13 operated by a regional office of education or an
14 intermediate service center is zero, then it may not
15 receive Base Funding Minimum funds for that program in the
16 next fiscal year, and those funds must be distributed to
17 Organizational Units under subsection (g).
18 (2) For the 2018-2019 and subsequent school years, the
19 Base Funding Minimum of Organizational Units and Specially
20 Funded Units shall be the sum of (i) the amount of
21 Evidence-Based Funding for the prior school year, (ii) the
22 Base Funding Minimum for the prior school year, and (iii)
23 any amount received by a school district pursuant to
24 Section 7 of Article 97 of Public Act 100-21.
25 (3) Subject to approval by the General Assembly as
26 provided in this paragraph (3), an Organizational Unit

SB2435 Enrolled- 932 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 that meets all of the following criteria, as determined by
2 the State Board, shall have District Intervention Money
3 added to its Base Funding Minimum at the time the Base
4 Funding Minimum is calculated by the State Board:
5 (A) The Organizational Unit is operating under an
6 Independent Authority under Section 2-3.25f-5 of this
7 Code for a minimum of 4 school years or is subject to
8 the control of the State Board pursuant to a court
9 order for a minimum of 4 school years.
10 (B) The Organizational Unit was designated as a
11 Tier 1 or Tier 2 Organizational Unit in the previous
12 school year under paragraph (3) of subsection (g) of
13 this Section.
14 (C) The Organizational Unit demonstrates
15 sustainability through a 5-year financial and
16 strategic plan.
17 (D) The Organizational Unit has made sufficient
18 progress and achieved sufficient stability in the
19 areas of governance, academic growth, and finances.
20 As part of its determination under this paragraph (3),
21 the State Board may consider the Organizational Unit's
22 summative designation, any accreditations of the
23 Organizational Unit, or the Organizational Unit's
24 financial profile, as calculated by the State Board.
25 If the State Board determines that an Organizational
26 Unit has met the criteria set forth in this paragraph (3),

SB2435 Enrolled- 933 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 it must submit a report to the General Assembly, no later
2 than January 2 of the fiscal year in which the State Board
3 makes it determination, on the amount of District
4 Intervention Money to add to the Organizational Unit's
5 Base Funding Minimum. The General Assembly must review the
6 State Board's report and may approve or disapprove, by
7 joint resolution, the addition of District Intervention
8 Money. If the General Assembly fails to act on the report
9 within 40 calendar days from the receipt of the report,
10 the addition of District Intervention Money is deemed
11 approved. If the General Assembly approves the amount of
12 District Intervention Money to be added to the
13 Organizational Unit's Base Funding Minimum, the District
14 Intervention Money must be added to the Base Funding
15 Minimum annually thereafter.
16 For the first 4 years following the initial year that
17 the State Board determines that an Organizational Unit has
18 met the criteria set forth in this paragraph (3) and has
19 received funding under this Section, the Organizational
20 Unit must annually submit to the State Board, on or before
21 November 30, a progress report regarding its financial and
22 strategic plan under subparagraph (C) of this paragraph
23 (3). The plan shall include the financial data from the
24 past 4 annual financial reports or financial audits that
25 must be presented to the State Board by November 15 of each
26 year and the approved budget financial data for the

SB2435 Enrolled- 934 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 current year. The plan shall be developed according to the
2 guidelines presented to the Organizational Unit by the
3 State Board. The plan shall further include financial
4 projections for the next 3 fiscal years and include a
5 discussion and financial summary of the Organizational
6 Unit's facility needs. If the Organizational Unit does not
7 demonstrate sufficient progress toward its 5-year plan or
8 if it has failed to file an annual financial report, an
9 annual budget, a financial plan, a deficit reduction plan,
10 or other financial information as required by law, the
11 State Board may establish a Financial Oversight Panel
12 under Article 1H of this Code. However, if the
13 Organizational Unit already has a Financial Oversight
14 Panel, the State Board may extend the duration of the
15 Panel.
16 (f) Percent of Adequacy and Final Resources calculation.
17 (1) The Evidence-Based Funding formula establishes a
18 Percent of Adequacy for each Organizational Unit in order
19 to place such units into tiers for the purposes of the
20 funding distribution system described in subsection (g) of
21 this Section. Initially, an Organizational Unit's
22 Preliminary Resources and Preliminary Percent of Adequacy
23 are calculated pursuant to paragraph (2) of this
24 subsection (f). Then, an Organizational Unit's Final
25 Resources and Final Percent of Adequacy are calculated to
26 account for the Organizational Unit's poverty

SB2435 Enrolled- 935 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 concentration levels pursuant to paragraphs (3) and (4) of
2 this subsection (f).
3 (2) An Organizational Unit's Preliminary Resources are
4 equal to the sum of its Local Capacity Target, CPPRT, and
5 Base Funding Minimum. An Organizational Unit's Preliminary
6 Percent of Adequacy is the lesser of (i) its Preliminary
7 Resources divided by its Adequacy Target or (ii) 100%.
8 (3) Except for Specially Funded Units, an
9 Organizational Unit's Final Resources are equal to the sum
10 of its Local Capacity, CPPRT, and Adjusted Base Funding
11 Minimum. The Base Funding Minimum of each Specially Funded
12 Unit shall serve as its Final Resources, except that the
13 Base Funding Minimum for State-approved charter schools
14 shall not include any portion of general State aid
15 allocated in the prior year based on the per capita
16 tuition charge times the charter school enrollment.
17 (4) An Organizational Unit's Final Percent of Adequacy
18 is its Final Resources divided by its Adequacy Target. An
19 Organizational Unit's Adjusted Base Funding Minimum is
20 equal to its Base Funding Minimum less its Supplemental
21 Grant Funding, with the resulting figure added to the
22 product of its Supplemental Grant Funding and Preliminary
23 Percent of Adequacy.
24 (g) Evidence-Based Funding formula distribution system.
25 (1) In each school year under the Evidence-Based
26 Funding formula, each Organizational Unit receives funding

SB2435 Enrolled- 936 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 equal to the sum of its Base Funding Minimum and the unit's
2 allocation of New State Funds determined pursuant to this
3 subsection (g). To allocate New State Funds, the
4 Evidence-Based Funding formula distribution system first
5 places all Organizational Units into one of 4 tiers in
6 accordance with paragraph (3) of this subsection (g),
7 based on the Organizational Unit's Final Percent of
8 Adequacy. New State Funds are allocated to each of the 4
9 tiers as follows: Tier 1 Aggregate Funding equals 50% of
10 all New State Funds, Tier 2 Aggregate Funding equals 49%
11 of all New State Funds, Tier 3 Aggregate Funding equals
12 0.9% of all New State Funds, and Tier 4 Aggregate Funding
13 equals 0.1% of all New State Funds. Each Organizational
14 Unit within Tier 1 or Tier 2 receives an allocation of New
15 State Funds equal to its tier Funding Gap, as defined in
16 the following sentence, multiplied by the tier's
17 Allocation Rate determined pursuant to paragraph (4) of
18 this subsection (g). For Tier 1, an Organizational Unit's
19 Funding Gap equals the tier's Target Ratio, as specified
20 in paragraph (5) of this subsection (g), multiplied by the
21 Organizational Unit's Adequacy Target, with the resulting
22 amount reduced by the Organizational Unit's Final
23 Resources. For Tier 2, an Organizational Unit's Funding
24 Gap equals the tier's Target Ratio, as described in
25 paragraph (5) of this subsection (g), multiplied by the
26 Organizational Unit's Adequacy Target, with the resulting

SB2435 Enrolled- 937 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 amount reduced by the Organizational Unit's Final
2 Resources and its Tier 1 funding allocation. To determine
3 the Organizational Unit's Funding Gap, the resulting
4 amount is then multiplied by a factor equal to one minus
5 the Organizational Unit's Local Capacity Target
6 percentage. Each Organizational Unit within Tier 3 or Tier
7 4 receives an allocation of New State Funds equal to the
8 product of its Adequacy Target and the tier's Allocation
9 Rate, as specified in paragraph (4) of this subsection
10 (g).
11 (2) To ensure equitable distribution of dollars for
12 all Tier 2 Organizational Units, no Tier 2 Organizational
13 Unit shall receive fewer dollars per ASE than any Tier 3
14 Organizational Unit. Each Tier 2 and Tier 3 Organizational
15 Unit shall have its funding allocation divided by its ASE.
16 Any Tier 2 Organizational Unit with a funding allocation
17 per ASE below the greatest Tier 3 allocation per ASE shall
18 get a funding allocation equal to the greatest Tier 3
19 funding allocation per ASE multiplied by the
20 Organizational Unit's ASE. Each Tier 2 Organizational
21 Unit's Tier 2 funding allocation shall be multiplied by
22 the percentage calculated by dividing the original Tier 2
23 Aggregate Funding by the sum of all Tier 2 Organizational
24 Units' Tier 2 funding allocation after adjusting
25 districts' funding below Tier 3 levels.
26 (3) Organizational Units are placed into one of 4

SB2435 Enrolled- 938 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 tiers as follows:
2 (A) Tier 1 consists of all Organizational Units,
3 except for Specially Funded Units, with a Percent of
4 Adequacy less than the Tier 1 Target Ratio. The Tier 1
5 Target Ratio is the ratio level that allows for Tier 1
6 Aggregate Funding to be distributed, with the Tier 1
7 Allocation Rate determined pursuant to paragraph (4)
8 of this subsection (g).
9 (B) Tier 2 consists of all Tier 1 Units and all
10 other Organizational Units, except for Specially
11 Funded Units, with a Percent of Adequacy of less than
12 0.90.
13 (C) Tier 3 consists of all Organizational Units,
14 except for Specially Funded Units, with a Percent of
15 Adequacy of at least 0.90 and less than 1.0.
16 (D) Tier 4 consists of all Organizational Units
17 with a Percent of Adequacy of at least 1.0.
18 (4) The Allocation Rates for Tiers 1 through 4 are
19 determined as follows:
20 (A) The Tier 1 Allocation Rate is 30%.
21 (B) The Tier 2 Allocation Rate is the result of the
22 following equation: Tier 2 Aggregate Funding, divided
23 by the sum of the Funding Gaps for all Tier 2
24 Organizational Units, unless the result of such
25 equation is higher than 1.0. If the result of such
26 equation is higher than 1.0, then the Tier 2

SB2435 Enrolled- 939 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 Allocation Rate is 1.0.
2 (C) The Tier 3 Allocation Rate is the result of the
3 following equation: Tier 3 Aggregate Funding, divided
4 by the sum of the Adequacy Targets of all Tier 3
5 Organizational Units.
6 (D) The Tier 4 Allocation Rate is the result of the
7 following equation: Tier 4 Aggregate Funding, divided
8 by the sum of the Adequacy Targets of all Tier 4
9 Organizational Units.
10 (5) A tier's Target Ratio is determined as follows:
11 (A) The Tier 1 Target Ratio is the ratio level that
12 allows for Tier 1 Aggregate Funding to be distributed
13 with the Tier 1 Allocation Rate.
14 (B) The Tier 2 Target Ratio is 0.90.
15 (C) The Tier 3 Target Ratio is 1.0.
16 (6) If, at any point, the Tier 1 Target Ratio is
17 greater than 90%, then than all Tier 1 funding shall be
18 allocated to Tier 2 and no Tier 1 Organizational Unit's
19 funding may be identified.
20 (7) In the event that all Tier 2 Organizational Units
21 receive funding at the Tier 2 Target Ratio level, any
22 remaining New State Funds shall be allocated to Tier 3 and
23 Tier 4 Organizational Units.
24 (8) If any Specially Funded Units, excluding Glenwood
25 Academy, recognized by the State Board do not qualify for
26 direct funding following the implementation of Public Act

SB2435 Enrolled- 940 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 100-465 from any of the funding sources included within
2 the definition of Base Funding Minimum, the unqualified
3 portion of the Base Funding Minimum shall be transferred
4 to one or more appropriate Organizational Units as
5 determined by the State Superintendent based on the prior
6 year ASE of the Organizational Units.
7 (8.5) If a school district withdraws from a special
8 education cooperative, the portion of the Base Funding
9 Minimum that is attributable to the school district may be
10 redistributed to the school district upon withdrawal. The
11 school district and the cooperative must include the
12 amount of the Base Funding Minimum that is to be
13 reapportioned in their withdrawal agreement and notify the
14 State Board of the change with a copy of the agreement upon
15 withdrawal.
16 (9) The Minimum Funding Level is intended to establish
17 a target for State funding that will keep pace with
18 inflation and continue to advance equity through the
19 Evidence-Based Funding formula. The target for State
20 funding of New Property Tax Relief Pool Funds is
21 $50,000,000 for State fiscal year 2019 and subsequent
22 State fiscal years. The Minimum Funding Level is equal to
23 $350,000,000. In addition to any New State Funds, no more
24 than $50,000,000 New Property Tax Relief Pool Funds may be
25 counted toward the Minimum Funding Level. If the sum of
26 New State Funds and applicable New Property Tax Relief

SB2435 Enrolled- 941 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 Pool Funds are less than the Minimum Funding Level, than
2 funding for tiers shall be reduced in the following
3 manner:
4 (A) First, Tier 4 funding shall be reduced by an
5 amount equal to the difference between the Minimum
6 Funding Level and New State Funds until such time as
7 Tier 4 funding is exhausted.
8 (B) Next, Tier 3 funding shall be reduced by an
9 amount equal to the difference between the Minimum
10 Funding Level and New State Funds and the reduction in
11 Tier 4 funding until such time as Tier 3 funding is
12 exhausted.
13 (C) Next, Tier 2 funding shall be reduced by an
14 amount equal to the difference between the Minimum
15 Funding Level and New State Funds and the reduction in
16 Tier 4 and Tier 3.
17 (D) Finally, Tier 1 funding shall be reduced by an
18 amount equal to the difference between the Minimum
19 Funding level and New State Funds and the reduction in
20 Tier 2, 3, and 4 funding. In addition, the Allocation
21 Rate for Tier 1 shall be reduced to a percentage equal
22 to the Tier 1 Allocation Rate set by paragraph (4) of
23 this subsection (g), multiplied by the result of New
24 State Funds divided by the Minimum Funding Level.
25 (9.5) For State fiscal year 2019 and subsequent State
26 fiscal years, if New State Funds exceed $300,000,000, then

SB2435 Enrolled- 942 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 any amount in excess of $300,000,000 shall be dedicated
2 for purposes of Section 2-3.170 of this Code up to a
3 maximum of $50,000,000.
4 (10) In the event of a decrease in the amount of the
5 appropriation for this Section in any fiscal year after
6 implementation of this Section, the Organizational Units
7 receiving Tier 1 and Tier 2 funding, as determined under
8 paragraph (3) of this subsection (g), shall be held
9 harmless by establishing a Base Funding Guarantee equal to
10 the per pupil kindergarten through grade 12 funding
11 received in accordance with this Section in the prior
12 fiscal year. Reductions shall be made to the Base Funding
13 Minimum of Organizational Units in Tier 3 and Tier 4 on a
14 per pupil basis equivalent to the total number of the ASE
15 in Tier 3-funded and Tier 4-funded Organizational Units
16 divided by the total reduction in State funding. The Base
17 Funding Minimum as reduced shall continue to be applied to
18 Tier 3 and Tier 4 Organizational Units and adjusted by the
19 relative formula when increases in appropriations for this
20 Section resume. In no event may State funding reductions
21 to Organizational Units in Tier 3 or Tier 4 exceed an
22 amount that would be less than the Base Funding Minimum
23 established in the first year of implementation of this
24 Section. If additional reductions are required, all school
25 districts shall receive a reduction by a per pupil amount
26 equal to the aggregate additional appropriation reduction

SB2435 Enrolled- 943 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 divided by the total ASE of all Organizational Units.
2 (11) The State Superintendent shall make minor
3 adjustments to the distribution formula set forth in this
4 subsection (g) to account for the rounding of percentages
5 to the nearest tenth of a percentage and dollar amounts to
6 the nearest whole dollar.
7 (h) State Superintendent administration of funding and
8district submission requirements.
9 (1) The State Superintendent shall, in accordance with
10 appropriations made by the General Assembly, meet the
11 funding obligations created under this Section.
12 (2) The State Superintendent shall calculate the
13 Adequacy Target for each Organizational Unit and Net State
14 Contribution Target for each Organizational Unit under
15 this Section. No Evidence-Based Funding shall be
16 distributed within an Organizational Unit without the
17 approval of the unit's school board.
18 (3) Annually, the State Superintendent shall calculate
19 and report to each Organizational Unit the unit's
20 aggregate financial adequacy amount, which shall be the
21 sum of the Adequacy Target for each Organizational Unit.
22 The State Superintendent shall calculate and report
23 separately for each Organizational Unit the unit's total
24 State funds allocated for its students with disabilities.
25 The State Superintendent shall calculate and report
26 separately for each Organizational Unit the amount of

SB2435 Enrolled- 944 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 funding and applicable FTE calculated for each Essential
2 Element of the unit's Adequacy Target.
3 (4) Annually, the State Superintendent shall calculate
4 and report to each Organizational Unit the amount the unit
5 must expend on special education and bilingual education
6 and computer technology and equipment for Organizational
7 Units assigned to Tier 1 or Tier 2 that received an
8 additional $285.50 per student computer technology and
9 equipment investment grant to their Adequacy Target
10 pursuant to the unit's Base Funding Minimum, Special
11 Education Allocation, Bilingual Education Allocation, and
12 computer technology and equipment investment allocation.
13 (5) Moneys distributed under this Section shall be
14 calculated on a school year basis, but paid on a fiscal
15 year basis, with payments beginning in August and
16 extending through June. Unless otherwise provided, the
17 moneys appropriated for each fiscal year shall be
18 distributed in 22 equal payments at least 2 times monthly
19 to each Organizational Unit. If moneys appropriated for
20 any fiscal year are distributed other than monthly, the
21 distribution shall be on the same basis for each
22 Organizational Unit.
23 (6) Any school district that fails, for any given
24 school year, to maintain school as required by law or to
25 maintain a recognized school is not eligible to receive
26 Evidence-Based Funding. In case of non-recognition of one

SB2435 Enrolled- 945 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 or more attendance centers in a school district otherwise
2 operating recognized schools, the claim of the district
3 shall be reduced in the proportion that the enrollment in
4 the attendance center or centers bears to the enrollment
5 of the school district. "Recognized school" means any
6 public school that meets the standards for recognition by
7 the State Board. A school district or attendance center
8 not having recognition status at the end of a school term
9 is entitled to receive State aid payments due upon a legal
10 claim that was filed while it was recognized.
11 (7) School district claims filed under this Section
12 are subject to Sections 18-9 and 18-12 of this Code,
13 except as otherwise provided in this Section.
14 (8) Each fiscal year, the State Superintendent shall
15 calculate for each Organizational Unit an amount of its
16 Base Funding Minimum and Evidence-Based Funding that shall
17 be deemed attributable to the provision of special
18 educational facilities and services, as defined in Section
19 14-1.08 of this Code, in a manner that ensures compliance
20 with maintenance of State financial support requirements
21 under the federal Individuals with Disabilities Education
22 Act. An Organizational Unit must use such funds only for
23 the provision of special educational facilities and
24 services, as defined in Section 14-1.08 of this Code, and
25 must comply with any expenditure verification procedures
26 adopted by the State Board.

SB2435 Enrolled- 946 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 (9) All Organizational Units in this State must submit
2 annual spending plans by the end of September of each year
3 to the State Board as part of the annual budget process,
4 which shall describe how each Organizational Unit will
5 utilize the Base Funding Minimum and Evidence-Based
6 Funding it receives from this State under this Section
7 with specific identification of the intended utilization
8 of Low-Income, English learner, and special education
9 resources. Additionally, the annual spending plans of each
10 Organizational Unit shall describe how the Organizational
11 Unit expects to achieve student growth and how the
12 Organizational Unit will achieve State education goals, as
13 defined by the State Board. The State Superintendent may,
14 from time to time, identify additional requisites for
15 Organizational Units to satisfy when compiling the annual
16 spending plans required under this subsection (h). The
17 format and scope of annual spending plans shall be
18 developed by the State Superintendent and the State Board
19 of Education. School districts that serve students under
20 Article 14C of this Code shall continue to submit
21 information as required under Section 14C-12 of this Code.
22 (10) No later than January 1, 2018, the State
23 Superintendent shall develop a 5-year strategic plan for
24 all Organizational Units to help in planning for adequacy
25 funding under this Section. The State Superintendent shall
26 submit the plan to the Governor and the General Assembly,

SB2435 Enrolled- 947 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 as provided in Section 3.1 of the General Assembly
2 Organization Act. The plan shall include recommendations
3 for:
4 (A) a framework for collaborative, professional,
5 innovative, and 21st century learning environments
6 using the Evidence-Based Funding model;
7 (B) ways to prepare and support this State's
8 educators for successful instructional careers;
9 (C) application and enhancement of the current
10 financial accountability measures, the approved State
11 plan to comply with the federal Every Student Succeeds
12 Act, and the Illinois Balanced Accountability Measures
13 in relation to student growth and elements of the
14 Evidence-Based Funding model; and
15 (D) implementation of an effective school adequacy
16 funding system based on projected and recommended
17 funding levels from the General Assembly.
18 (11) On an annual basis, the State Superintendent must
19 recalibrate all of the following per pupil elements of the
20 Adequacy Target and applied to the formulas, based on the
21 study of average expenses and as reported in the most
22 recent annual financial report:
23 (A) Gifted under subparagraph (M) of paragraph (2)
24 of subsection (b).

1meanings given to those terms under Section 10 of the
2Compassionate Use of Medical Cannabis Program Act.
3 "Self-administration" means a student's discretionary use
4of his or her medical cannabis infused product.
5 (b) Subject to the restrictions under subsections (c)
6through (g) of this Section, a school district, public school,
7charter school, or nonpublic school shall authorize a parent
8or guardian or any other individual registered with the
9Department of Public Health as a designated caregiver of a
10student who is a registered qualifying patient to administer a
11medical cannabis infused product to the student on the
12premises of the child's school or on the child's school bus if
13both the student (as a registered qualifying patient) and the
14parent or guardian or other individual (as a registered
15designated caregiver) have been issued registry identification
16cards under the Compassionate Use of Medical Cannabis Program
17Act. After administering the product, the parent or guardian
18or other individual shall remove the product from the school
19premises or the school bus.
20 (b-5) Notwithstanding subsection (b) and subject to the
21restrictions under subsections (c) through (g), a school
22district, public school, charter school, or nonpublic school
23must allow a school nurse or school administrator to
24administer a medical cannabis infused product to a student who
25is a registered qualifying patient (i) while on school
26premises, (ii) while at a school-sponsored activity, or (iii)

SB2435 Enrolled- 954 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1before or after normal school activities, including while the
2student is in before-school or after-school care on
3school-operated property or while the student is being
4transported on a school bus. A school district, public school,
5charter school, or nonpublic school may authorize the
6self-administration of a medical cannabis infused product by a
7student who is a registered qualifying patient if the
8self-administration takes place under the direct supervision
9of a school nurse or school administrator.

11infused product by a school nurse or school administrator or a
12student's self-administration of a medical cannabis infused
13product under the supervision of a school nurse or school
14administrator under this subsection, the parent or guardian of
15a student who is the registered qualifying patient must
16provide written authorization for its use, along with a copy
17of the registry identification card of the student (as a
18registered qualifying patient) and the parent or guardian (as
19a registered designated caregiver). The written authorization
20must specify the times at which where or the special
21circumstances under which the medical cannabis infused product
22must be administered. The written authorization and a copy of
23the registry identification cards must be kept on file in the
24office of the school nurse. The authorization for a student to
25self-administer medical cannabis infused products is effective
26for the school year in which it is granted and must be renewed

SB2435 Enrolled- 955 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1each subsequent school year upon fulfillment of the
2requirements of this Section.
3 (b-10) Medical cannabis infused products that are to be

8 (c) A parent or guardian or other individual may not
9administer a medical cannabis infused product under this
10Section in a manner that, in the opinion of the school district
11or school, would create a disruption to the school's
12educational environment or would cause exposure of the product
13to other students.
14 (d) A school district or school may not discipline a
15student who is administered a medical cannabis infused product
16by a parent or guardian or other individual under this Section
17or who self-administers a medical cannabis infused product
18under the supervision of a school nurse or school
19administrator under this Section and may not deny the
20student's eligibility to attend school solely because the
21student requires the administration of the product.
22 (e) Nothing in this Section requires a member of a
23school's staff to administer a medical cannabis infused
24product to a student.
25 (f) A school district, public school, charter school, or
26nonpublic school may not authorize the use of a medical

SB2435 Enrolled- 956 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1cannabis infused product under this Section if the school
2district or school would lose federal funding as a result of
3the authorization.
4 (f-5) The State Board of Education, in consultation with
5the Department of Public Health, must develop a training
6curriculum for school nurses and school administrators on the
7administration of medical cannabis infused products. Prior to
8the administration of a medical cannabis infused product under
9subsection (b-5), a school nurse or school administrator must
10annually complete the training curriculum developed under this
11subsection and must submit to the school's administration
12proof of its completion. A school district, public school,

22 Sec. 22-85. Sexual abuse at schools.
23 (a) The General Assembly finds that:
24 (1) investigation of a child regarding an incident of
25 sexual abuse can induce significant trauma for the child;

SB2435 Enrolled- 957 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 (2) it is desirable to prevent multiple interviews of
2 a child at a school; and
3 (3) it is important to recognize the role of
4 Children's Advocacy Centers in conducting developmentally
5 appropriate investigations.
6 (b) In this Section:
7 "Alleged incident of sexual abuse" is limited to an
8incident of sexual abuse of a child that is alleged to have
9been perpetrated by school personnel, including a school
10vendor or volunteer, that occurred (i) on school grounds or
11during a school activity or (ii) outside of school grounds or
12not during a school activity.
13 "Appropriate law enforcement agency" means a law
14enforcement agency whose employees have been involved, in some
15capacity, with an investigation of a particular alleged
16incident of sexual abuse.
17 (c) If a mandated reporter within a school has knowledge
18of an alleged incident of sexual abuse, the reporter must call
19the Department of Children and Family Services' hotline
20established under Section 7.6 of the Abused and Neglected
21Child Reporting Act immediately after obtaining the minimal
22information necessary to make a report, including the names of
23the affected parties and the allegations. The State Board of
24Education must make available materials detailing the
25information that is necessary to enable notification to the
26Department of Children and Family Services of an alleged

SB2435 Enrolled- 958 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1incident of sexual abuse. Each school must ensure that
2mandated reporters review the State Board of Education's
3materials and materials developed by the Department of
4Children and Family Services and distributed in the school
5building under Section 7 of the Abused and Neglected Child
6Reporting Act at least once annually.
7 (d) For schools in a county with an accredited Children's
8Advocacy Center, every alleged incident of sexual abuse that
9is reported to the Department of Children and Family Services'
10hotline or a law enforcement agency and is subsequently
11accepted for investigation must be referred by the entity that
12received the report to the local Children's Advocacy Center
13pursuant to that county's multidisciplinary team's protocol
14under the Children's Advocacy Center Act for investigating
15child sexual abuse allegations.
16 (e) A county's local Children's Advocacy Center must, at a
17minimum, do both of the following regarding a referred case of
18an alleged incident of sexual abuse:
19 (1) Coordinate the investigation of the alleged
20 incident, as governed by the local Children's Advocacy
21 Center's existing multidisciplinary team protocol and
22 according to National Children's Alliance accreditation
23 standards.
24 (2) Facilitate communication between the
25 multidisciplinary team investigating the alleged incident
26 of sexual abuse and, if applicable, the referring school's

SB2435 Enrolled- 959 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 (i) Title IX officer, or his or her designee, (ii) school
2 resource officer, or (iii) personnel leading the school's
3 investigation into the alleged incident of sexual abuse.
4 If a school uses a designated entity to investigate a
5 sexual abuse allegation, the multidisciplinary team may
6 correspond only with that entity and any reference in this
7 Section to "school" refers to that designated entity. This
8 facilitation of communication must, at a minimum, ensure
9 that all applicable parties have each other's contact
10 information and must share the county's local Children's
11 Advocacy Center's protocol regarding the process of
12 approving the viewing of a forensic interview, as defined
13 under Section 2.5 of the Children's Advocacy Center Act,
14 by school personnel and a contact person for questions
15 relating to the protocol.
16 (f) After an alleged incident of sexual abuse is accepted
17for investigation by the Department of Children and Family
18Services or a law enforcement agency and while the criminal
19and child abuse investigations related to that alleged
20incident are being conducted by the local multidisciplinary
21team, the school relevant to the alleged incident of sexual
22abuse must comply with both of the following:
23 (1) It may not interview the alleged victim regarding
24 details of the alleged incident of sexual abuse until
25 after the completion of the forensic interview of that
26 victim is conducted at a Children's Advocacy Center. This

SB2435 Enrolled- 960 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 paragraph does not prohibit a school from requesting
2 information from the alleged victim or his or her parent
3 or guardian to ensure the safety and well-being of the
4 alleged victim at school during an investigation.
5 (2) If asked by a law enforcement agency or an
6 investigator of the Department of Children and Family
7 Services who is conducting the investigation, it must
8 inform those individuals of any evidence the school has
9 gathered pertaining to an alleged incident of sexual
10 abuse, as permissible by federal or State law.
11 (g) After completion of a forensic interview, the
12multidisciplinary team must notify the school relevant to the
13alleged incident of sexual abuse of its completion. If, for
14any reason, a multidisciplinary team determines it will not
15conduct a forensic interview in a specific investigation, the
16multidisciplinary team must notify the school as soon as the
17determination is made. If a forensic interview has not been
18conducted within 15 calendar days after opening an
19investigation, the school may notify the multidisciplinary
20team that it intends to interview the alleged victim. No later
21than 10 calendar days after this notification, the
22multidisciplinary team may conduct the forensic interview and,
23if the multidisciplinary team does not conduct the interview,
24the school may proceed with its interview.
25 (h) To the greatest extent possible considering student
26safety and Title IX compliance, school personnel may view the

SB2435 Enrolled- 961 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1electronic recordings of a forensic interview of an alleged
2victim of an incident of sexual abuse. As a means to avoid
3additional interviews of an alleged victim, school personnel
4must be granted viewing access to the electronic recording of
5a forensic interview conducted at an accredited Children's
6Advocacy Center for an alleged incident of sexual abuse only
7if the school receives (i) approval from the multidisciplinary
8team investigating the case and (ii) informed consent by a
9child over the age of 13 or the child's parent or guardian.
10Each county's local Children's Advocacy Center and
11multidisciplinary team must establish an internal protocol
12regarding the process of approving the viewing of the forensic
13interview, and this process and the contact person must be
14shared with the school contact at the time of the initial
15facilitation. Whenever possible, the school's viewing of the
16electronic recording of a forensic interview should be
17conducted in lieu of the need for additional interviews.
18 (i) For an alleged incident of sexual abuse that has been
19accepted for investigation by a multidisciplinary team, if,
20during the course of its internal investigation and at any
21point during or after the multidisciplinary team's
22investigation, the school determines that it needs to
23interview the alleged victim to successfully complete its
24investigation and the victim is under 18 years of age, a child
25advocate must be made available to the student and may be
26present during the school's interview. A child advocate may be

SB2435 Enrolled- 962 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1a school social worker, a school or equally qualified
2psychologist, or a person in a position the State Board of
3Education has identified as an appropriate advocate for the
4student during a school's investigation into an alleged
5incident of sexual abuse.
6 (j) The Department of Children and Family Services must
7notify the relevant school when an agency investigation of an
8alleged incident of sexual abuse is complete. The notification
9must include information on the outcome of that investigation.
10 (k) The appropriate law enforcement agency must notify the
11relevant school when an agency investigation of an alleged
12incident of sexual abuse is complete or has been suspended.
13The notification must include information on the outcome of
14that investigation.
15 (l) This Section applies to all schools operating under
16this Code, including, but not limited to, public schools
17located in cities having a population of more than 500,000, a
18school operated pursuant to an agreement with a public school
19district, alternative schools operated by third parties, an
20alternative learning opportunities program, a public school
21administered by a local public agency or the Department of
22Human Services, charter schools operating under the authority
23of Article 27A, and non-public schools recognized by the State
24Board of Education.

15a driver education instructor endorsed by the State Board of
16Education. A school district's decision to allow a student to
17take a portion of the driver education course through a
18distance learning program must be determined on a case-by-case
19basis and must be approved by the school's administration,
20including the student's driver education teacher, and the
21student's parent or guardian. Under no circumstances may the
22student take the entire driver education course through a
23distance learning program. Both the classroom instruction part
24and the practice driving part of a driver education course
25shall be open to a resident or non-resident student attending
26a non-public school in the district wherein the course is

SB2435 Enrolled- 972 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1offered. Each student attending any public or non-public high
2school in the district must receive a passing grade in at least
38 courses during the previous 2 semesters prior to enrolling
4in a driver education course, or the student shall not be
5permitted to enroll in the course; provided that the local
6superintendent of schools (with respect to a student attending
7a public high school in the district) or chief school
8administrator (with respect to a student attending a
9non-public high school in the district) may waive the
10requirement if the superintendent or chief school
11administrator, as the case may be, deems it to be in the best
12interest of the student. A student may be allowed to commence
13the classroom instruction part of such driver education course
14prior to reaching age 15 if such student then will be eligible
15to complete the entire course within 12 months after being
16allowed to commence such classroom instruction.
17 A school district may offer a driver education course in a
18school by contracting with a commercial driver training school
19to provide both the classroom instruction part and the
20practice driving part or either one without having to request
21a modification or waiver of administrative rules of the State
22Board of Education if the school district approves the action
23during a public hearing on whether to enter into a contract
24with a commercial driver training school. The public hearing
25shall be held at a regular or special school board meeting
26prior to entering into such a contract. If a school district

SB2435 Enrolled- 973 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1chooses to approve a contract with a commercial driver
2training school, then the district must provide evidence to
3the State Board of Education that the commercial driver
4training school with which it will contract holds a license
5issued by the Secretary of State under Article IV of Chapter 6
6of the Illinois Vehicle Code and that each instructor employed
7by the commercial driver training school to provide
8instruction to students served by the school district holds a
9valid teaching license issued under the requirements of this
10Code and rules of the State Board of Education. Such evidence
11must include, but need not be limited to, a list of each
12instructor assigned to teach students served by the school
13district, which list shall include the instructor's name,
14personal identification number as required by the State Board
15of Education, birth date, and driver's license number. Once
16the contract is entered into, the school district shall notify
17the State Board of Education of any changes in the personnel
18providing instruction either (i) within 15 calendar days after
19an instructor leaves the program or (ii) before a new
20instructor is hired. Such notification shall include the
21instructor's name, personal identification number as required
22by the State Board of Education, birth date, and driver's
23license number. If the school district maintains an Internet
24website, then the district shall post a copy of the final
25contract between the district and the commercial driver
26training school on the district's Internet website. If no

SB2435 Enrolled- 974 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1Internet website exists, then the school district shall make
2available the contract upon request. A record of all materials
3in relation to the contract must be maintained by the school
4district and made available to parents and guardians upon
5request. The instructor's date of birth and driver's license
6number and any other personally identifying information as
7deemed by the federal Driver's Privacy Protection Act of 1994
8must be redacted from any public materials.
9 Such a course may be commenced immediately after the
10completion of a prior course. Teachers of such courses shall
11meet the licensure requirements of this Code and regulations
12of the State Board as to qualifications. Except for a contract
13with a Certified Driver Rehabilitation Specialist, a school
14district that contracts with a third party to teach a driver
15education course under this Section must ensure the teacher
16meets the educator licensure and endorsement requirements
17under Article 21B and must follow the same evaluation and
18observation requirements that apply to non-tenured teachers
19under Article 24A. The teacher evaluation must be conducted by
20a school administrator employed by the school district and
21must be submitted annually to the district superintendent and
22all school board members for oversight purposes.
23 Subject to rules of the State Board of Education, the
24school district may charge a reasonable fee, not to exceed
25$50, to students who participate in the course, unless a
26student is unable to pay for such a course, in which event the

SB2435 Enrolled- 975 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1fee for such a student must be waived. However, the district
2may increase this fee to an amount not to exceed $250 by school
3board resolution following a public hearing on the increase,
4which increased fee must be waived for students who
5participate in the course and are unable to pay for the course.
6The total amount from driver education fees and reimbursement
7from the State for driver education must not exceed the total
8cost of the driver education program in any year and must be
9deposited into the school district's driver education fund as
10a separate line item budget entry. All moneys deposited into
11the school district's driver education fund must be used
12solely for the funding of a high school driver education
13program approved by the State Board of Education that uses
14driver education instructors endorsed by the State Board of
15Education.

11 on its own premises; and
12 (b) the bank or, after May 31, 1997, branch of the

10 additional fee to recover the cost of the additional
11 examination. In lieu of the method and amounts set

20 emergency exists or appears likely, the Commissioner
21 may assign an examiner or examiners to monitor the
22 affairs of a State bank with whatever frequency he

25 out-of-state banks.

SB2435 Enrolled- 1061 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b

2 ending June 30 of the next year. The Commissioner
3 shall receive for each fiscal year, commencing with
4 the fiscal year ending June 30, 1987, a contingent fee
5 equal to the lesser of the aggregate of the fees paid
6 by all State banks under paragraph (a) of subsection
7 (3) for that year, or the amount, if any, whereby the
8 aggregate of the administration expenses, as defined
9 in paragraph (c), for that fiscal year exceeds the sum

23 assessed upon, and paid by the State banks and foreign
24 banking corporations, respectively, in the same
25 proportion that the fee of each under paragraph (a) of
26 subsection (3), respectively, for that year bears to

SB2435 Enrolled- 1062 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 the aggregate for that year of the fees collected
2 under paragraph (a) of subsection (3). The aggregate

8 extent that those expenditures are directly incidental
9 to such examinations or administration. The
10 Commissioner shall not be required by paragraphs (c)
11 or (d-1) of this subsection (3) to maintain in any
12 fiscal year's budget appropriated reserves for accrued
13 vacation and accrued sick leave that is required to be
14 paid to employees of the Commissioner upon termination
15 of their service with the Commissioner in an amount
16 that is more than is reasonably anticipated to be
17 necessary for any anticipated turnover in employees,
18 whether due to normal attrition or due to layoffs,
19 terminations, or resignations.
20 (d) The aggregate of all fees collected by the
21 Secretary under this Act, the Corporate Fiduciary Act,

7 time deposited into the Bank and Trust Company Fund
8 shall be used: (i) to offset the ordinary
9 administrative expenses of the Secretary as defined in
10 this Section or (ii) as a credit against fees under
11 paragraph (d-1) of this subsection (3). Nothing in
12 Public Act 81-131 shall prevent continuing the
13 practice of paying expenses involving salaries,
14 retirement, social security, and State-paid insurance
15 premiums of State officers by appropriations from the
16 General Revenue Fund. However, the General Revenue
17 Fund shall be reimbursed for those payments made on
18 and after July 1, 1979, by an annual transfer of funds
19 from the Bank and Trust Company Fund. Moneys in the
20 Bank and Trust Company Fund may be transferred to the

12 2011, from the Bank and Trust Company Fund to the
13 General Revenue Fund pursuant to this provision shall
14 not exceed during any fiscal year 10% of the revenues
15 to be deposited into the Bank and Trust Company Fund
16 during that fiscal year. The State Treasurer and

19 receiving the direction to transfer from the Governor.
20 (d-1) Adequate funds shall be available in the
21 Bank and Trust Company Fund to permit the timely
22 payment of administration expenses. In each fiscal
23 year the total administration expenses shall be
24 deducted from the total fees collected by the

5 Sec. 46. Loans and interest rate.
6 (1) A credit union may make loans to its members for such
7purpose and upon such security and terms, including rates of
8interest, as the credit committee, credit manager, or loan
9officer approves. Notwithstanding the provisions of any other
10law in connection with extensions of credit, a credit union
11may elect to contract for and receive interest and fees and
12other charges for extensions of credit subject only to the
13provisions of this Act and rules promulgated under this Act,
14except that extensions of credit secured by residential real
15estate shall be subject to the laws applicable thereto. The
16rates of interest to be charged on loans to members shall be
17set by the board of directors of each individual credit union
18in accordance with Section 30 of this Act and such rates may be
19less than, but may not exceed, the maximum rate set forth in
20this Section. A borrower may repay his loan prior to maturity,
21in whole or in part, without penalty. A prepayment penalty
22does not include a waived, bona fide third-party charge that
23the credit union imposes if the borrower prepays all of the
24transaction's principal sooner than 36 months after
25consummation of a closed-end credit transaction, a waived,

SB2435 Enrolled- 1088 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1bona fide third-party charge that the credit union imposes if
2the borrower terminates an open-end credit plan sooner than 36
3months after account opening, or a yield maintenance fee
4imposed on a business loan transaction. The credit contract
5may provide for the payment by the member and receipt by the
6credit union of all costs and disbursements, including
7reasonable attorney's fees and collection agency charges,
8incurred by the credit union to collect or enforce the debt in
9the event of a delinquency by the member, or in the event of a
10breach of any obligation of the member under the credit
11contract. A contingency or hourly arrangement established
12under an agreement entered into by a credit union with an
13attorney or collection agency to collect a loan of a member in
14default shall be presumed prima facie reasonable.
15 (2) Credit unions may make loans based upon the security
16of any interest or equity in real estate, subject to rules and
17regulations promulgated by the Secretary. In any contract or
18loan which is secured by a mortgage, deed of trust, or
19conveyance in the nature of a mortgage, on residential real
20estate, the interest which is computed, calculated, charged,
21or collected pursuant to such contract or loan, or pursuant to
22any regulation or rule promulgated pursuant to this Act, may
23not be computed, calculated, charged or collected for any
24period of time occurring after the date on which the total
25indebtedness, with the exception of late payment penalties, is
26paid in full.

SB2435 Enrolled- 1089 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 For purposes of this subsection (2) of this Section 46, a
2prepayment shall mean the payment of the total indebtedness,
3with the exception of late payment penalties if incurred or
4charged, on any date before the date specified in the contract
5or loan agreement on which the total indebtedness shall be
6paid in full, or before the date on which all payments, if
7timely made, shall have been made. In the event of a prepayment
8of the indebtedness which is made on a date after the date on
9which interest on the indebtedness was last computed,
10calculated, charged, or collected but before the next date on
11which interest on the indebtedness was to be calculated,
12computed, charged, or collected, the lender may calculate,
13charge and collect interest on the indebtedness for the period
14which elapsed between the date on which the prepayment is made
15and the date on which interest on the indebtedness was last
16computed, calculated, charged or collected at a rate equal to
171/360 of the annual rate for each day which so elapsed, which
18rate shall be applied to the indebtedness outstanding as of
19the date of prepayment. The lender shall refund to the
20borrower any interest charged or collected which exceeds that
21which the lender may charge or collect pursuant to the
22preceding sentence.
23 (3) (Blank).
24 (4) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Act, a
25credit union authorized under this Act to make loans secured
26by an interest or equity in real property may engage in making

SB2435 Enrolled- 1090 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1revolving credit loans secured by mortgages or deeds of trust
2on such real property or by security assignments of beneficial
3interests in land trusts.
4 For purposes of this Section, "revolving credit" has the
5meaning defined in Section 4.1 of the Interest Act.
6 Any mortgage or deed of trust given to secure a revolving
7credit loan may, and when so expressed therein shall, secure
8not only the existing indebtedness but also such future
9advances, whether such advances are obligatory or to be made
10at the option of the lender, or otherwise, as are made within
1120 twenty years from the date thereof, to the same extent as if
12such future advances were made on the date of the execution of
13such mortgage or deed of trust, although there may be no
14advance made at the time of execution of such mortgage or other
15instrument, and although there may be no indebtedness
16outstanding at the time any advance is made. The lien of such
17mortgage or deed of trust, as to third persons without actual
18notice thereof, shall be valid as to all such indebtedness and
19future advances from form the time said mortgage or deed of
20trust is filed for record in the office of the recorder of
21deeds or the registrar of titles of the county where the real
22property described therein is located. The total amount of
23indebtedness that may be so secured may increase or decrease
24from time to time, but the total unpaid balance so secured at
25any one time shall not exceed a maximum principal amount which
26must be specified in such mortgage or deed of trust, plus

SB2435 Enrolled- 1091 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1interest thereon, and any disbursements made for the payment
2of taxes, special assessments, or insurance on said real
3property, with interest on such disbursements.
4 Any such mortgage or deed of trust shall be valid and have
5priority over all subsequent liens and encumbrances, including
6statutory liens, except taxes and assessments levied on said
7real property.
8 (4-5) For purposes of this Section, "real estate" and
9"real property" include a manufactured home as defined in
10subdivision (53) of Section 9-102 of the Uniform Commercial
11Code which is real property as defined in Section 5-35 of the
12Conveyance and Encumbrance of Manufactured Homes as Real
13Property and Severance Act.
14 (5) Compliance with federal or Illinois preemptive laws or
15regulations governing loans made by a credit union chartered
16under this Act shall constitute compliance with this Act.
17 (6) Credit unions may make residential real estate
18mortgage loans on terms and conditions established by the
19United States Department of Agriculture through its Rural
20Development Housing and Community Facilities Program. The
21portion of any loan in excess of the appraised value of the
22real estate shall be allocable only to the guarantee fee
23required under the program.
24 (7) For a renewal, refinancing, or restructuring of an
25existing loan at the credit union that is secured by an
26interest or equity in real estate, a new appraisal of the

SB2435 Enrolled- 1092 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1collateral shall not be required when (i) no new moneys are
2advanced other than funds necessary to cover reasonable
3closing costs, or (ii) there has been no obvious or material
4change in market conditions or physical aspects of the real
5estate that threatens the adequacy of the credit union's real
6estate collateral protection after the transaction, even with
7the advancement of new moneys. The Department reserves the
8right to require an appraisal under this subsection (7)
9whenever the Department believes it is necessary to address
10safety and soundness concerns.

10 Sec. 28.2a. Proxies.
11 (1) A shareholder may appoint a proxy to vote or otherwise
12act for him or her by signing an appointment form and
13delivering it to the person so appointed.
14 (2) No proxy shall be valid after the expiration of 11
15months from the date thereof unless otherwise provided in the
16proxy. Every proxy continues in full force and effect until
17revoked by the person executing it prior to the vote pursuant
18thereto, except as otherwise provided in this Section. Such
19revocation may be effected by a writing delivered to the
20corporation stating that the proxy is revoked or by a
21subsequent proxy executed by, or by attendance at the meeting
22and voting in person by, the person executing the proxy. The

24the order of execution, regardless of the postmark dates on

SB2435 Enrolled- 1110 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1the envelopes in which they are mailed.
2 (3) An appointment of a proxy is revocable by the
3shareholder unless the appointment form conspicuously states
4that it is irrevocable and the appointment is coupled with an
5interest in the shares or in the corporation generally. By way
6of example and without limiting the generality of the
7foregoing, a proxy is coupled with an interest when the proxy
8appointed is one of the following:
9 (a) a pledgee;
10 (b) a person who has purchased or had agreed to
11 purchase the shares;
12 (c) a creditor of the corporation who has extended it
13 credit under terms requiring the appointment, if the
14 appointment states the purpose for which it was given, the
15 name of the creditor, and the amount of credit extended;
16 or
17 (d) an employee of the corporation whose employment
18 contract requires the appointment, if the appointment
19 states the purpose for which it was given, the name of the
20 employee, and the period of employment.
21 (4) The death or incapacity of the shareholder appointing
22a proxy does not revoke the proxy's authority unless notice of
23the death or incapacity is received by the officer or agent who
24maintains the corporation's share transfer book before the
25proxy exercises his or her authority under the appointment.
26 (5) An appointment made irrevocable under subsection (3)

SB2435 Enrolled- 1111 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1becomes revocable when the interest in the proxy terminates
2such as when the pledge is redeemed, the shares are registered
3in the purchaser's name, the creditor's debt is paid, the
4employment contract ends, or the voting agreement expires.
5 (6) A transferee for value of shares subject to an
6irrevocable appointment may revoke the appointment if the
7transferee was ignorant of its existence when the shares were
8acquired and both the existence of the appointment and its
9revocability were not noted conspicuously on the certificate
10(or information statement for shares without certificates)
11representing the shares.
12 (7) Unless the appointment of a proxy contains an express
13limitation on the proxy's authority, a corporation may accept
14one proxy's vote or other action as that of the shareholder
15making the appointment. If the proxy appointed fails to vote
16or otherwise act in accordance with the appointment, the
17shareholder is entitled to such legal or equitable relief as
18is appropriate in the circumstances.

21 to be covered shall include those covered under Article V
22 of the Illinois Public Aid Code, through 89 Ill. Adm. Code
23 140.453(d)(4).
24 (b) Adherence to the clinical models. For purposes of
25ensuring adherence to the coordinated specialty care for first

SB2435 Enrolled- 1120 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1episode psychosis treatment model, only providers contracted
2with the Department of Human Services' Division of Mental
3Health to be FIRST.IL providers to deliver coordinated
4specialty care for first episode psychosis treatment shall be

11Healthcare and Family Services, or its designee, in accordance
12with 89 Ill. Adm. Code 140, shall be permitted to provide such

15 (c) Development of medical necessity criteria for

19convene a workgroup that includes the Department of Human
20Services' Division of Mental Health, the Department of
21Healthcare and Family Services, providers of the treatment
22models listed in this Section, and insurers operating in
23Illinois to develop medical necessity criteria for such
24treatment models for purposes of coverage under this Section.
25The workgroup shall use the medical necessity criteria the
26State and other states use as guidance for establishing

SB2435 Enrolled- 1121 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1medical necessity for insurance coverage. The Department of
2Insurance shall adopt a rule that defines medical necessity
3for each of the 3 treatment models listed in this Section by no
4later than June 30, 2020 based on the workgroup's
5recommendations.

13 (e) Payment for the services performed under the treatment
14models listed in this Section shall be based on a bundled
15treatment model or payment, rather than payment for each
16separate service delivered by a treatment team member. By no
17later than 6 months after January 1, 2020 (the effective date
18of Public Act 101-461) this amendatory Act of the 101st
19General Assembly, the Department of Insurance shall convene a

21health treatment providers that deliver the bundled treatment
22approaches listed in this Section to determine a coding
23solution that allows for these bundled treatment models to be
24coded and paid for as a bundle of services, similar to
25intensive outpatient treatment where multiple services are
26covered under one billing code or a bundled set of billing

SB2435 Enrolled- 1122 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1codes. The coding solution shall ensure that services
2delivered using coordinated specialty care for first episode
3psychosis treatment, ACT, or CST are provided and billed as a
4bundled service, rather than for each individual service
5provided by a treatment team member, which would deconstruct
6the evidence-based practice. The coding solution shall be
7reached prior to coverage, which shall begin for plans
8amended, delivered, issued, or renewed after December 31,
92020, to ensure coverage of the treatment team approaches as

1 (230 ILCS 5/26) (from Ch. 8, par. 37-26)
2 Sec. 26. Wagering.
3 (a) Any licensee may conduct and supervise the pari-mutuel
4system of wagering, as defined in Section 3.12 of this Act, on
5horse races conducted by an Illinois organization licensee or
6conducted at a racetrack located in another state or country
7in accordance with subsection (g) of Section 26 of this Act.
8Subject to the prior consent of the Board, licensees may
9supplement any pari-mutuel pool in order to guarantee a
10minimum distribution. Such pari-mutuel method of wagering
11shall not, under any circumstances if conducted under the
12provisions of this Act, be held or construed to be unlawful,
13other statutes of this State to the contrary notwithstanding.
14Subject to rules for advance wagering promulgated by the
15Board, any licensee may accept wagers in advance of the day of
16the race wagered upon occurs.
17 (b) Except for those gaming activities for which a license
18is obtained and authorized under the Illinois Lottery Law, the
19Charitable Games Act, the Raffles and Poker Runs Act, or the
20Illinois Gambling Act, no other method of betting, pool
21making, wagering or gambling shall be used or permitted by the
22licensee. Each licensee may retain, subject to the payment of
23all applicable taxes and purses, an amount not to exceed 17% of
24all money wagered under subsection (a) of this Section, except
25as may otherwise be permitted under this Act.

SB2435 Enrolled- 1260 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 (b-5) An individual may place a wager under the
2pari-mutuel system from any licensed location authorized under
3this Act provided that wager is electronically recorded in the
4manner described in Section 3.12 of this Act. Any wager made
5electronically by an individual while physically on the
6premises of a licensee shall be deemed to have been made at the
7premises of that licensee.
8 (c) (Blank).
9 (c-5) The sum held by any licensee for payment of
10outstanding pari-mutuel tickets, if unclaimed prior to
11December 31 of the next year, shall be retained by the licensee
12for payment of such tickets until that date. Within 10 days
13thereafter, the balance of such sum remaining unclaimed, less
14any uncashed supplements contributed by such licensee for the
15purpose of guaranteeing minimum distributions of any
16pari-mutuel pool, shall be evenly distributed to the purse
17account of the organization licensee and the organization
18licensee, except that the balance of the sum of all
19outstanding pari-mutuel tickets generated from simulcast
20wagering and inter-track wagering by an organization licensee
21located in a county with a population in excess of 230,000 and
22borders the Mississippi River or any licensee that derives its
23license from that organization licensee shall be evenly
24distributed to the purse account of the organization licensee
25and the organization licensee.
26 (d) A pari-mutuel ticket shall be honored until December

SB2435 Enrolled- 1261 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
131 of the next calendar year, and the licensee shall pay the
2same and may charge the amount thereof against unpaid money
3similarly accumulated on account of pari-mutuel tickets not
4presented for payment.
5 (e) No licensee shall knowingly permit any minor, other
6than an employee of such licensee or an owner, trainer,
7jockey, driver, or employee thereof, to be admitted during a
8racing program unless accompanied by a parent or guardian, or
9any minor to be a patron of the pari-mutuel system of wagering
10conducted or supervised by it. The admission of any
11unaccompanied minor, other than an employee of the licensee or
12an owner, trainer, jockey, driver, or employee thereof at a
13race track is a Class C misdemeanor.
14 (f) Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Act, an
15organization licensee may contract with an entity in another
16state or country to permit any legal wagering entity in
17another state or country to accept wagers solely within such
18other state or country on races conducted by the organization
19licensee in this State. Beginning January 1, 2000, these
20wagers shall not be subject to State taxation. Until January
211, 2000, when the out-of-State entity conducts a pari-mutuel
22pool separate from the organization licensee, a privilege tax
23equal to 7 1/2% of all monies received by the organization
24licensee from entities in other states or countries pursuant
25to such contracts is imposed on the organization licensee, and
26such privilege tax shall be remitted to the Department of

SB2435 Enrolled- 1262 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1Revenue within 48 hours of receipt of the moneys from the
2simulcast. When the out-of-State entity conducts a combined
3pari-mutuel pool with the organization licensee, the tax shall
4be 10% of all monies received by the organization licensee
5with 25% of the receipts from this 10% tax to be distributed to
6the county in which the race was conducted.
7 An organization licensee may permit one or more of its
8races to be utilized for pari-mutuel wagering at one or more
9locations in other states and may transmit audio and visual
10signals of races the organization licensee conducts to one or
11more locations outside the State or country and may also
12permit pari-mutuel pools in other states or countries to be
13combined with its gross or net wagering pools or with wagering
14pools established by other states.
15 (g) A host track may accept interstate simulcast wagers on
16horse races conducted in other states or countries and shall
17control the number of signals and types of breeds of racing in
18its simulcast program, subject to the disapproval of the
19Board. The Board may prohibit a simulcast program only if it
20finds that the simulcast program is clearly adverse to the
21integrity of racing. The host track simulcast program shall
22include the signal of live racing of all organization
23licensees. All non-host licensees and advance deposit wagering
24licensees shall carry the signal of and accept wagers on live
25racing of all organization licensees. Advance deposit wagering
26licensees shall not be permitted to accept out-of-state wagers

SB2435 Enrolled- 1263 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1on any Illinois signal provided pursuant to this Section
2without the approval and consent of the organization licensee
3providing the signal. For one year after August 15, 2014 (the
4effective date of Public Act 98-968), non-host licensees may
5carry the host track simulcast program and shall accept wagers
6on all races included as part of the simulcast program of horse
7races conducted at race tracks located within North America
8upon which wagering is permitted. For a period of one year
9after August 15, 2014 (the effective date of Public Act
1098-968), on horse races conducted at race tracks located
11outside of North America, non-host licensees may accept wagers
12on all races included as part of the simulcast program upon
13which wagering is permitted. Beginning August 15, 2015 (one
14year after the effective date of Public Act 98-968), non-host
15licensees may carry the host track simulcast program and shall
16accept wagers on all races included as part of the simulcast
17program upon which wagering is permitted. All organization
18licensees shall provide their live signal to all advance
19deposit wagering licensees for a simulcast commission fee not
20to exceed 6% of the advance deposit wagering licensee's
21Illinois handle on the organization licensee's signal without
22prior approval by the Board. The Board may adopt rules under
23which it may permit simulcast commission fees in excess of 6%.
24The Board shall adopt rules limiting the interstate commission
25fees charged to an advance deposit wagering licensee. The
26Board shall adopt rules regarding advance deposit wagering on

SB2435 Enrolled- 1264 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1interstate simulcast races that shall reflect, among other
2things, the General Assembly's desire to maximize revenues to
3the State, horsemen purses, and organization licensees.
4However, organization licensees providing live signals
5pursuant to the requirements of this subsection (g) may
6petition the Board to withhold their live signals from an
7advance deposit wagering licensee if the organization licensee
8discovers and the Board finds reputable or credible
9information that the advance deposit wagering licensee is
10under investigation by another state or federal governmental
11agency, the advance deposit wagering licensee's license has
12been suspended in another state, or the advance deposit
13wagering licensee's license is in revocation proceedings in
14another state. The organization licensee's provision of their
15live signal to an advance deposit wagering licensee under this
16subsection (g) pertains to wagers placed from within Illinois.
17Advance deposit wagering licensees may place advance deposit
18wagering terminals at wagering facilities as a convenience to
19customers. The advance deposit wagering licensee shall not
20charge or collect any fee from purses for the placement of the
21advance deposit wagering terminals. The costs and expenses of
22the host track and non-host licensees associated with
23interstate simulcast wagering, other than the interstate
24commission fee, shall be borne by the host track and all
25non-host licensees incurring these costs. The interstate
26commission fee shall not exceed 5% of Illinois handle on the

SB2435 Enrolled- 1265 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1interstate simulcast race or races without prior approval of
2the Board. The Board shall promulgate rules under which it may
3permit interstate commission fees in excess of 5%. The
4interstate commission fee and other fees charged by the
5sending racetrack, including, but not limited to, satellite
6decoder fees, shall be uniformly applied to the host track and
7all non-host licensees.
8 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act, an
9organization licensee, with the consent of the horsemen
10association representing the largest number of owners,
11trainers, jockeys, or standardbred drivers who race horses at
12that organization licensee's racing meeting, may maintain a
13system whereby advance deposit wagering may take place or an
14organization licensee, with the consent of the horsemen
15association representing the largest number of owners,
16trainers, jockeys, or standardbred drivers who race horses at
17that organization licensee's racing meeting, may contract with
18another person to carry out a system of advance deposit
19wagering. Such consent may not be unreasonably withheld. Only
20with respect to an appeal to the Board that consent for an
21organization licensee that maintains its own advance deposit
22wagering system is being unreasonably withheld, the Board
23shall issue a final order within 30 days after initiation of
24the appeal, and the organization licensee's advance deposit
25wagering system may remain operational during that 30-day
26period. The actions of any organization licensee who conducts

SB2435 Enrolled- 1266 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1advance deposit wagering or any person who has a contract with
2an organization licensee to conduct advance deposit wagering
3who conducts advance deposit wagering on or after January 1,
42013 and prior to June 7, 2013 (the effective date of Public
5Act 98-18) taken in reliance on the changes made to this
6subsection (g) by Public Act 98-18 are hereby validated,
7provided payment of all applicable pari-mutuel taxes are
8remitted to the Board. All advance deposit wagers placed from
9within Illinois must be placed through a Board-approved
10advance deposit wagering licensee; no other entity may accept
11an advance deposit wager from a person within Illinois. All
12advance deposit wagering is subject to any rules adopted by
13the Board. The Board may adopt rules necessary to regulate
14advance deposit wagering through the use of emergency
15rulemaking in accordance with Section 5-45 of the Illinois
16Administrative Procedure Act. The General Assembly finds that
17the adoption of rules to regulate advance deposit wagering is
18deemed an emergency and necessary for the public interest,
19safety, and welfare. An advance deposit wagering licensee may
20retain all moneys as agreed to by contract with an
21organization licensee. Any moneys retained by the organization
22licensee from advance deposit wagering, not including moneys
23retained by the advance deposit wagering licensee, shall be
24paid 50% to the organization licensee's purse account and 50%
25to the organization licensee. With the exception of any
26organization licensee that is owned by a publicly traded

SB2435 Enrolled- 1267 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1company that is incorporated in a state other than Illinois
2and advance deposit wagering licensees under contract with
3such organization licensees, organization licensees that
4maintain advance deposit wagering systems and advance deposit
5wagering licensees that contract with organization licensees
6shall provide sufficiently detailed monthly accountings to the
7horsemen association representing the largest number of
8owners, trainers, jockeys, or standardbred drivers who race
9horses at that organization licensee's racing meeting so that
10the horsemen association, as an interested party, can confirm
11the accuracy of the amounts paid to the purse account at the
12horsemen association's affiliated organization licensee from
13advance deposit wagering. If more than one breed races at the
14same race track facility, then the 50% of the moneys to be paid
15to an organization licensee's purse account shall be allocated
16among all organization licensees' purse accounts operating at
17that race track facility proportionately based on the actual
18number of host days that the Board grants to that breed at that
19race track facility in the current calendar year. To the
20extent any fees from advance deposit wagering conducted in
21Illinois for wagers in Illinois or other states have been
22placed in escrow or otherwise withheld from wagers pending a
23determination of the legality of advance deposit wagering, no
24action shall be brought to declare such wagers or the
25disbursement of any fees previously escrowed illegal.
26 (1) Between the hours of 6:30 a.m. and 6:30 p.m. an

SB2435 Enrolled- 1268 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 inter-track wagering licensee other than the host track
2 may supplement the host track simulcast program with
3 additional simulcast races or race programs, provided that
4 between January 1 and the third Friday in February of any
5 year, inclusive, if no live thoroughbred racing is
6 occurring in Illinois during this period, only
7 thoroughbred races may be used for supplemental interstate
8 simulcast purposes. The Board shall withhold approval for
9 a supplemental interstate simulcast only if it finds that
10 the simulcast is clearly adverse to the integrity of
11 racing. A supplemental interstate simulcast may be
12 transmitted from an inter-track wagering licensee to its
13 affiliated non-host licensees. The interstate commission
14 fee for a supplemental interstate simulcast shall be paid
15 by the non-host licensee and its affiliated non-host
16 licensees receiving the simulcast.
17 (2) Between the hours of 6:30 p.m. and 6:30 a.m. an
18 inter-track wagering licensee other than the host track
19 may receive supplemental interstate simulcasts only with
20 the consent of the host track, except when the Board finds
21 that the simulcast is clearly adverse to the integrity of
22 racing. Consent granted under this paragraph (2) to any
23 inter-track wagering licensee shall be deemed consent to
24 all non-host licensees. The interstate commission fee for
25 the supplemental interstate simulcast shall be paid by all
26 participating non-host licensees.

SB2435 Enrolled- 1269 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 (3) Each licensee conducting interstate simulcast
2 wagering may retain, subject to the payment of all
3 applicable taxes and the purses, an amount not to exceed
4 17% of all money wagered. If any licensee conducts the
5 pari-mutuel system wagering on races conducted at
6 racetracks in another state or country, each such race or
7 race program shall be considered a separate racing day for
8 the purpose of determining the daily handle and computing
9 the privilege tax of that daily handle as provided in
10 subsection (a) of Section 27. Until January 1, 2000, from
11 the sums permitted to be retained pursuant to this
12 subsection, each inter-track wagering location licensee
13 shall pay 1% of the pari-mutuel handle wagered on
14 simulcast wagering to the Horse Racing Tax Allocation
15 Fund, subject to the provisions of subparagraph (B) of
16 paragraph (11) of subsection (h) of Section 26 of this
17 Act.
18 (4) A licensee who receives an interstate simulcast
19 may combine its gross or net pools with pools at the
20 sending racetracks pursuant to rules established by the
21 Board. All licensees combining their gross pools at a
22 sending racetrack shall adopt the takeout percentages of
23 the sending racetrack. A licensee may also establish a
24 separate pool and takeout structure for wagering purposes
25 on races conducted at race tracks outside of the State of
26 Illinois. The licensee may permit pari-mutuel wagers

SB2435 Enrolled- 1270 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 placed in other states or countries to be combined with
2 its gross or net wagering pools or other wagering pools.
3 (5) After the payment of the interstate commission fee
4 (except for the interstate commission fee on a
5 supplemental interstate simulcast, which shall be paid by
6 the host track and by each non-host licensee through the
7 host track) and all applicable State and local taxes,
8 except as provided in subsection (g) of Section 27 of this
9 Act, the remainder of moneys retained from simulcast
10 wagering pursuant to this subsection (g), and Section 26.2
11 shall be divided as follows:
12 (A) For interstate simulcast wagers made at a host
13 track, 50% to the host track and 50% to purses at the
14 host track.
15 (B) For wagers placed on interstate simulcast
16 races, supplemental simulcasts as defined in
17 subparagraphs (1) and (2), and separately pooled races
18 conducted outside of the State of Illinois made at a
19 non-host licensee, 25% to the host track, 25% to the
20 non-host licensee, and 50% to the purses at the host
21 track.
22 (6) Notwithstanding any provision in this Act to the
23 contrary, non-host licensees who derive their licenses
24 from a track located in a county with a population in
25 excess of 230,000 and that borders the Mississippi River
26 may receive supplemental interstate simulcast races at all

1 times subject to Board approval, which shall be withheld
2 only upon a finding that a supplemental interstate
3 simulcast is clearly adverse to the integrity of racing.
4 (7) Effective January 1, 2017, notwithstanding any
5 provision of this Act to the contrary, after payment of
6 all applicable State and local taxes and interstate
7 commission fees, non-host licensees who derive their
8 licenses from a track located in a county with a
9 population in excess of 230,000 and that borders the
10 Mississippi River shall retain 50% of the retention from
11 interstate simulcast wagers and shall pay 50% to purses at
12 the track from which the non-host licensee derives its
13 license.
14 (7.1) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act
15 to the contrary, if no standardbred racing is conducted at
16 a racetrack located in Madison County during any calendar
17 year beginning on or after January 1, 2002, all moneys
18 derived by that racetrack from simulcast wagering and

15 Illinois. The articles of agreement of any partnership,
16 joint venture, limited partnership, syndicate, association

19 relation to the alleged violation. If the State Commission
20 has reasonable grounds to believe that the complaint
21 substantially alleges a violation of this Act or rules and
22 regulations adopted pursuant to this Act, it shall conduct
23 an investigation. If, after conducting an investigation,
24 the State Commission is satisfied that the alleged
25 violation did occur, it shall proceed with disciplinary

9 the State Commission. A civil penalty shall be assessed by
10 the State Commission after a hearing is held in accordance
11 with the provisions set forth in this Act regarding the
12 provision of a hearing for the revocation or suspension of
13 a license.
14 (6) To hear and determine appeals from orders of a
15 local commission in accordance with the provisions of this

11 business. The accounts, forms, records, and memoranda

13 by authorized representatives of the State Commission or
14 by any local liquor control commissioner or his or her

16 to time, alter, amend, or repeal, in whole or in part, any
17 uniform system of accounts, or the form and manner of
18 keeping accounts.
19 (8) In the conduct of any hearing authorized to be

8 Any circuit court may, by order duly entered, require
9 the attendance of witnesses and the production of relevant

11 compel obedience to its order by proceedings for contempt.
12 (9) To investigate the administration of laws in
13 relation to alcoholic liquors in this and other states and
14 any foreign countries, and to recommend from time to time
15 to the Governor and through him or her to the legislature
16 of this State, such amendments to this Act, if any, as it
17 may think desirable and as will serve to further the

19 (10) To adopt such rules and regulations consistent

1 purchasing and consumption of alcoholic beverages.
2 (11.1) To license persons providing education and

14 (13) (Blank).
15 (14) On or before April 30, 2008 and every 2 years

17 report to the Governor and the General Assembly that shall
18 be based on a study of the impact of Public Act 95-634 on

13 the Illinois Attorney General and the U.S. Department
14 of Treasury's Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade
15 Bureau.
16 (15) As a means to reduce the underage consumption of
17 alcoholic liquors, the State Commission shall conduct
18 alcohol compliance operations to investigate whether
19 businesses that are soliciting, selling, and shipping wine
20 from inside or outside of this State directly to residents
21 of this State are licensed by this State or are selling or
22 attempting to sell wine to persons under 21 years of age in
23 violation of this Act.
24 (16) The State Commission shall, in addition to
25 notifying any appropriate law enforcement agency, submit
26 notices of complaints or violations of Sections 6-29 and

SB2435 Enrolled- 1360 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 6-29.1 by persons who do not hold a winery shipper's
2 license under this Act to the Illinois Attorney General
3 and to the U.S. Department of Treasury's Alcohol and
4 Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau.
5 (17)(A) A person licensed to make wine under the laws
6 of another state who has a winery shipper's license under
7 this Act and annually produces less than 25,000 gallons of
8 wine or a person who has a first-class or second-class
9 wine manufacturer's license, a first-class or second-class
10 wine-maker's license, or a limited wine manufacturer's
11 license under this Act and annually produces less than
12 25,000 gallons of wine may make application to the
13 Commission for a self-distribution exemption to allow the
14 sale of not more than 5,000 gallons of the exemption
15 holder's wine to retail licensees per year.
16 (B) In the application, which shall be sworn under
17 penalty of perjury, such person shall state (1) the date
18 it was established; (2) its volume of production and sales
19 for each year since its establishment; (3) its efforts to
20 establish distributor relationships; (4) that a
21 self-distribution exemption is necessary to facilitate the
22 marketing of its wine; and (5) that it will comply with the
23 liquor and revenue laws of the United States, this State,
24 and any other state where it is licensed.
25 (C) The State Commission shall approve the application
26 for a self-distribution exemption if such person: (1) is

SB2435 Enrolled- 1361 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 in compliance with State revenue and liquor laws; (2) is
2 not a member of any affiliated group that produces more
3 than 25,000 gallons of wine per annum or produces any
4 other alcoholic liquor; (3) will not annually produce for
5 sale more than 25,000 gallons of wine; and (4) will not
6 annually sell more than 5,000 gallons of its wine to
7 retail licensees.
8 (D) A self-distribution exemption holder shall
9 annually certify to the State Commission its production of
10 wine in the previous 12 months and its anticipated
11 production and sales for the next 12 months. The State
12 Commission may fine, suspend, or revoke a
13 self-distribution exemption after a hearing if it finds
14 that the exemption holder has made a material
15 misrepresentation in its application, violated a revenue
16 or liquor law of Illinois, exceeded production of 25,000
17 gallons of wine in any calendar year, or become part of an
18 affiliated group producing more than 25,000 gallons of
19 wine or any other alcoholic liquor.
20 (E) Except in hearings for violations of this Act or
21 Public Act 95-634 or a bona fide investigation by duly
22 sworn law enforcement officials, the State Commission, or
23 its agents, the State Commission shall maintain the
24 production and sales information of a self-distribution
25 exemption holder as confidential and shall not release
26 such information to any person.

SB2435 Enrolled- 1362 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 (F) The State Commission shall issue regulations
2 governing self-distribution exemptions consistent with
3 this Section and this Act.
4 (G) Nothing in this paragraph (17) shall prohibit a
5 self-distribution exemption holder from entering into or
6 simultaneously having a distribution agreement with a
7 licensed Illinois distributor.
8 (H) It is the intent of this paragraph (17) to promote
9 and continue orderly markets. The General Assembly finds
10 that, in order to preserve Illinois' regulatory
11 distribution system, it is necessary to create an
12 exception for smaller makers of wine as their wines are
13 frequently adjusted in varietals, mixes, vintages, and
14 taste to find and create market niches sometimes too small
15 for distributor or importing distributor business
16 strategies. Limited self-distribution rights will afford
17 and allow smaller makers of wine access to the marketplace
18 in order to develop a customer base without impairing the
19 integrity of the 3-tier system.
20 (18)(A) A class 1 brewer licensee, who must also be
21 either a licensed brewer or licensed non-resident dealer
22 and annually manufacture less than 930,000 gallons of
23 beer, may make application to the State Commission for a
24 self-distribution exemption to allow the sale of not more
25 than 232,500 gallons of the exemption holder's beer per
26 year to retail licensees and to brewers, class 1 brewers,

SB2435 Enrolled- 1363 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 and class 2 brewers that, pursuant to subsection (e) of
2 Section 6-4 of this Act, sell beer, cider, or both beer and
3 cider to non-licensees at their breweries.
4 (B) In the application, which shall be sworn under
5 penalty of perjury, the class 1 brewer licensee shall
6 state (1) the date it was established; (2) its volume of
7 beer manufactured and sold for each year since its
8 establishment; (3) its efforts to establish distributor
9 relationships; (4) that a self-distribution exemption is
10 necessary to facilitate the marketing of its beer; and (5)
11 that it will comply with the alcoholic beverage and
12 revenue laws of the United States, this State, and any
13 other state where it is licensed.
14 (C) Any application submitted shall be posted on the
15 State Commission's website at least 45 days prior to
16 action by the State Commission. The State Commission shall
17 approve the application for a self-distribution exemption
18 if the class 1 brewer licensee: (1) is in compliance with
19 the State, revenue, and alcoholic beverage laws; (2) is
20 not a member of any affiliated group that manufactures
21 more than 930,000 gallons of beer per annum or produces
22 any other alcoholic beverages; (3) shall not annually
23 manufacture for sale more than 930,000 gallons of beer;
24 (4) shall not annually sell more than 232,500 gallons of
25 its beer to retail licensees or to brewers, class 1
26 brewers, and class 2 brewers that, pursuant to subsection

SB2435 Enrolled- 1364 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 (e) of Section 6-4 of this Act, sell beer, cider, or both
2 beer and cider to non-licensees at their breweries; and
3 (5) has relinquished any brew pub license held by the
4 licensee, including any ownership interest it held in the
5 licensed brew pub.
6 (D) A self-distribution exemption holder shall
7 annually certify to the State Commission its manufacture
8 of beer during the previous 12 months and its anticipated
9 manufacture and sales of beer for the next 12 months. The
10 State Commission may fine, suspend, or revoke a
11 self-distribution exemption after a hearing if it finds
12 that the exemption holder has made a material
13 misrepresentation in its application, violated a revenue
14 or alcoholic beverage law of Illinois, exceeded the
15 manufacture of 930,000 gallons of beer in any calendar
16 year or became part of an affiliated group manufacturing
17 more than 930,000 gallons of beer or any other alcoholic
18 beverage.
19 (E) The State Commission shall issue rules and
20 regulations governing self-distribution exemptions
21 consistent with this Act.
22 (F) Nothing in this paragraph (18) shall prohibit a
23 self-distribution exemption holder from entering into or
24 simultaneously having a distribution agreement with a
25 licensed Illinois importing distributor or a distributor.
26 If a self-distribution exemption holder enters into a

SB2435 Enrolled- 1365 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 distribution agreement and has assigned distribution
2 rights to an importing distributor or distributor, then
3 the self-distribution exemption holder's distribution
4 rights in the assigned territories shall cease in a
5 reasonable time not to exceed 60 days.
6 (G) It is the intent of this paragraph (18) to promote
7 and continue orderly markets. The General Assembly finds
8 that in order to preserve Illinois' regulatory
9 distribution system, it is necessary to create an
10 exception for smaller manufacturers in order to afford and
11 allow such smaller manufacturers of beer access to the
12 marketplace in order to develop a customer base without
13 impairing the integrity of the 3-tier system.
14 (19)(A) A class 1 craft distiller licensee or a
15 non-resident dealer who manufactures less than 50,000
16 gallons of distilled spirits per year may make application
17 to the State Commission for a self-distribution exemption
18 to allow the sale of not more than 5,000 gallons of the
19 exemption holder's spirits to retail licensees per year.
20 (B) In the application, which shall be sworn under
21 penalty of perjury, the class 1 craft distiller licensee
22 or non-resident dealer shall state (1) the date it was
23 established; (2) its volume of spirits manufactured and
24 sold for each year since its establishment; (3) its
25 efforts to establish distributor relationships; (4) that a
26 self-distribution exemption is necessary to facilitate the

SB2435 Enrolled- 1366 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 marketing of its spirits; and (5) that it will comply with
2 the alcoholic beverage and revenue laws of the United
3 States, this State, and any other state where it is
4 licensed.
5 (C) Any application submitted shall be posted on the
6 State Commission's website at least 45 days prior to
7 action by the State Commission. The State Commission shall
8 approve the application for a self-distribution exemption
9 if the applicant: (1) is in compliance with State revenue
10 and alcoholic beverage laws; (2) is not a member of any
11 affiliated group that produces more than 50,000 gallons of
12 spirits per annum or produces any other alcoholic liquor;
13 (3) does not annually manufacture for sale more than
14 50,000 gallons of spirits; and (4) does not annually sell
15 more than 5,000 gallons of its spirits to retail
16 licensees.
17 (D) A self-distribution exemption holder shall
18 annually certify to the State Commission its manufacture
19 of spirits during the previous 12 months and its
20 anticipated manufacture and sales of spirits for the next
21 12 months. The State Commission may fine, suspend, or
22 revoke a self-distribution exemption after a hearing if it
23 finds that the exemption holder has made a material
24 misrepresentation in its application, violated a revenue
25 or alcoholic beverage law of Illinois, exceeded the
26 manufacture of 50,000 gallons of spirits in any calendar

SB2435 Enrolled- 1367 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 year, or has become part of an affiliated group
2 manufacturing more than 50,000 gallons of spirits or any
3 other alcoholic beverage.
4 (E) The State Commission shall adopt rules governing
5 self-distribution exemptions consistent with this Act.
6 (F) Nothing in this paragraph (19) shall prohibit a
7 self-distribution exemption holder from entering into or
8 simultaneously having a distribution agreement with a
9 licensed Illinois importing distributor or a distributor.
10 (G) It is the intent of this paragraph (19) to promote
11 and continue orderly markets. The General Assembly finds
12 that in order to preserve Illinois' regulatory
13 distribution system, it is necessary to create an
14 exception for smaller manufacturers in order to afford and
15 allow such smaller manufacturers of spirits access to the
16 marketplace in order to develop a customer base without
17 impairing the integrity of the 3-tier system.
18 (b) On or before April 30, 1999, the Commission shall
19present a written report to the Governor and the General
20Assembly that shall be based on a study of the impact of Public
21Act 90-739 on the business of soliciting, selling, and
22shipping alcoholic liquor from outside of this State directly
23to residents of this State.
24 As part of its report, the Commission shall provide the
25following information:
26 (i) the amount of State excise and sales tax revenues

SB2435 Enrolled- 1368 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 generated as a result of Public Act 90-739;
2 (ii) the amount of licensing fees received as a result
3 of Public Act 90-739;
4 (iii) the number of reported violations, the number of
5 cease and desist notices issued by the Commission, the
6 number of notices of violations issued to the Department
7 of Revenue, and the number of notices and complaints of
8 violations to law enforcement officials.

18Department shall report to the General Assembly on the status
19of the provision set forth in this paragraph.
20 The Department shall establish a methodology to remind
21women who are age-appropriate for screening mammography, but

23months, of the importance and benefit of screening
24mammography. The Department shall work with experts in breast
25cancer outreach and patient navigation to optimize these
26reminders and shall establish a methodology for evaluating

5for participation by medical providers, only with the prior
6written approval of the Illinois Department.
7 Nothing in this Section shall limit the free choice of
8practitioners, hospitals, and other providers of medical

24provided by applicable State law, whichever period is longer,
25except that if an audit is initiated within the required
26retention period then the records must be retained until the

SB2435 Enrolled- 1420 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1audit is completed and every exception is resolved. The
2Illinois Department shall require health care providers to
3make available, when authorized by the patient, in writing,
4the medical records in a timely fashion to other health care
5providers who are treating or serving persons eligible for
6Medical Assistance under this Article. All dispensers of
7medical services shall be required to maintain and retain
8business and professional records sufficient to fully and
9accurately document the nature, scope, details and receipt of
10the health care provided to persons eligible for medical
11assistance under this Code, in accordance with regulations
12promulgated by the Illinois Department. The rules and
13regulations shall require that proof of the receipt of
14prescription drugs, dentures, prosthetic devices and
15eyeglasses by eligible persons under this Section accompany
16each claim for reimbursement submitted by the dispenser of
17such medical services. No such claims for reimbursement shall
18be approved for payment by the Illinois Department without
19such proof of receipt, unless the Illinois Department shall
20have put into effect and shall be operating a system of
21post-payment audit and review which shall, on a sampling
22basis, be deemed adequate by the Illinois Department to assure
23that such drugs, dentures, prosthetic devices and eyeglasses
24for which payment is being made are actually being received by
25eligible recipients. Within 90 days after September 16, 1984

SB2435 Enrolled- 1499 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 (1) requiring the consent or notification of a parent,
2 guardian, or person in loco parentis would cause the minor
3 to reject the counseling services or psychotherapy;
4 (2) the failure to provide the counseling services or
5 psychotherapy would be detrimental to the minor's
6 well-being;
7 (3) the minor has knowingly and voluntarily sought the

10 is mature enough to participate in counseling services or
11 psychotherapy productively.
12 (a-2) The minor's parent, guardian, or person in loco
13parentis shall not be informed of the counseling services or
14psychotherapy without the written consent of the minor unless
15the service provider believes the disclosure is necessary
16under subsection (a) of this Section. If the facility director
17or service provider intends to disclose the fact of counseling
18services or psychotherapy, the minor shall be so informed and
19if the minor chooses to discontinue counseling services or
20psychotherapy after being informed of the decision of the

18 (1) the State of Illinois has a long-standing policy
19 to restore, protect, and enhance the environment,
20 including the purity of the air, land, and waters,
21 including groundwaters, of this State;
22 (2) a clean environment is essential to the growth and
23 well-being of this State;
24 (3) CCR generated by the electric generating industry
25 has caused groundwater contamination and other forms of

SB2435 Enrolled- 1567 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 pollution at active and inactive plants throughout this
2 State;
3 (4) environmental laws should be supplemented to
4 ensure consistent, responsible regulation of all existing
5 CCR surface impoundments; and
6 (5) meaningful participation of State residents,
7 especially vulnerable populations who may be affected by
8 regulatory actions, is critical to ensure that
9 environmental justice considerations are incorporated in
10 the development of, decision-making related to, and
11 implementation of environmental laws and rulemaking that
12 protects and improves the well-being of communities in
13 this State that bear disproportionate burdens imposed by
14 environmental pollution.
15 Therefore, the purpose of this Section is to promote a
16healthful environment, including clean water, air, and land,
17meaningful public involvement, and the responsible disposal
18and storage of coal combustion residuals, so as to protect
19public health and to prevent pollution of the environment of
20this State.

22pursuant thereto.
23 The Agency, subject to any conditions which may be
24prescribed by Board regulations, may issue NPDES permits to
25allow discharges beyond deadlines established by this Act or
26by regulations of the Board without the requirement of a

SB2435 Enrolled- 1582 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1variance, subject to the Federal Water Pollution Control Act,
2as now or hereafter amended, and regulations pursuant thereto.
3 (c) Except for those facilities owned or operated by
4sanitary districts organized under the Metropolitan Water
5Reclamation District Act, no permit for the development or
6construction of a new pollution control facility may be
7granted by the Agency unless the applicant submits proof to
8the Agency that the location of the facility has been approved
9by the county board County Board of the county if in an
10unincorporated area, or the governing body of the municipality
11when in an incorporated area, in which the facility is to be
12located in accordance with Section 39.2 of this Act. For
13purposes of this subsection (c), and for purposes of Section
1439.2 of this Act, the appropriate county board or governing
15body of the municipality shall be the county board of the
16county or the governing body of the municipality in which the
17facility is to be located as of the date when the application
18for siting approval is filed.
19 In the event that siting approval granted pursuant to
20Section 39.2 has been transferred to a subsequent owner or
21operator, that subsequent owner or operator may apply to the
22Agency for, and the Agency may grant, a development or
23construction permit for the facility for which local siting
24approval was granted. Upon application to the Agency for a
25development or construction permit by that subsequent owner or
26operator, the permit applicant shall cause written notice of

SB2435 Enrolled- 1583 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1the permit application to be served upon the appropriate
2county board or governing body of the municipality that
3granted siting approval for that facility and upon any party
4to the siting proceeding pursuant to which siting approval was
5granted. In that event, the Agency shall conduct an evaluation
6of the subsequent owner or operator's prior experience in
7waste management operations in the manner conducted under
8subsection (i) of Section 39 of this Act.
9 Beginning August 20, 1993, if the pollution control
10facility consists of a hazardous or solid waste disposal
11facility for which the proposed site is located in an
12unincorporated area of a county with a population of less than
13100,000 and includes all or a portion of a parcel of land that
14was, on April 1, 1993, adjacent to a municipality having a
15population of less than 5,000, then the local siting review
16required under this subsection (c) in conjunction with any
17permit applied for after that date shall be performed by the
18governing body of that adjacent municipality rather than the
19county board of the county in which the proposed site is
20located; and for the purposes of that local siting review, any
21references in this Act to the county board shall be deemed to
22mean the governing body of that adjacent municipality;
23provided, however, that the provisions of this paragraph shall
24not apply to any proposed site which was, on April 1, 1993,
25owned in whole or in part by another municipality.
26 In the case of a pollution control facility for which a

SB2435 Enrolled- 1584 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1development permit was issued before November 12, 1981, if an
2operating permit has not been issued by the Agency prior to
3August 31, 1989 for any portion of the facility, then the
4Agency may not issue or renew any development permit nor issue
5an original operating permit for any portion of such facility
6unless the applicant has submitted proof to the Agency that
7the location of the facility has been approved by the
8appropriate county board or municipal governing body pursuant
9to Section 39.2 of this Act.
10 After January 1, 1994, if a solid waste disposal facility,
11any portion for which an operating permit has been issued by
12the Agency, has not accepted waste disposal for 5 or more
13consecutive calendar calendars years, before that facility may
14accept any new or additional waste for disposal, the owner and
15operator must obtain a new operating permit under this Act for
16that facility unless the owner and operator have applied to
17the Agency for a permit authorizing the temporary suspension
18of waste acceptance. The Agency may not issue a new operation
19permit under this Act for the facility unless the applicant
20has submitted proof to the Agency that the location of the
21facility has been approved or re-approved by the appropriate
22county board or municipal governing body under Section 39.2 of
23this Act after the facility ceased accepting waste.
24 Except for those facilities owned or operated by sanitary
25districts organized under the Metropolitan Water Reclamation
26District Act, and except for new pollution control facilities

SB2435 Enrolled- 1585 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1governed by Section 39.2, and except for fossil fuel mining
2facilities, the granting of a permit under this Act shall not
3relieve the applicant from meeting and securing all necessary
4zoning approvals from the unit of government having zoning
5jurisdiction over the proposed facility.
6 Before beginning construction on any new sewage treatment
7plant or sludge drying site to be owned or operated by a
8sanitary district organized under the Metropolitan Water
9Reclamation District Act for which a new permit (rather than
10the renewal or amendment of an existing permit) is required,
11such sanitary district shall hold a public hearing within the
12municipality within which the proposed facility is to be
13located, or within the nearest community if the proposed
14facility is to be located within an unincorporated area, at
15which information concerning the proposed facility shall be
16made available to the public, and members of the public shall
17be given the opportunity to express their views concerning the
18proposed facility.
19 The Agency may issue a permit for a municipal waste
20transfer station without requiring approval pursuant to
21Section 39.2 provided that the following demonstration is
22made:
23 (1) the municipal waste transfer station was in
24 existence on or before January 1, 1979 and was in
25 continuous operation from January 1, 1979 to January 1,
26 1993;

SB2435 Enrolled- 1586 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 (2) the operator submitted a permit application to the
2 Agency to develop and operate the municipal waste transfer
3 station during April of 1994;
4 (3) the operator can demonstrate that the county board
5 of the county, if the municipal waste transfer station is
6 in an unincorporated area, or the governing body of the
7 municipality, if the station is in an incorporated area,
8 does not object to resumption of the operation of the
9 station; and
10 (4) the site has local zoning approval.
11 (d) The Agency may issue RCRA permits exclusively under
12this subsection to persons owning or operating a facility for
13the treatment, storage, or disposal of hazardous waste as
14defined under this Act. Subsection (y) of this Section, rather
15than this subsection (d), shall apply to permits issued for
16CCR surface impoundments.
17 All RCRA permits shall contain those terms and conditions,
18including, but not limited to, schedules of compliance, which
19may be required to accomplish the purposes and provisions of

2 In the case of a permit to operate a hazardous waste or PCB
3incinerator as defined in subsection (k) of Section 44, the
4Agency shall require, as a condition of the permit, that the
5operator of the facility perform such analyses of the waste to
6be incinerated as may be necessary and appropriate to ensure
7the safe operation of the incinerator.
8 The Agency shall adopt filing requirements and procedures
9which are necessary and appropriate for the issuance of RCRA
10permits, and which are consistent with the Act or regulations
11adopted by the Board, and with the Resource Conservation and
12Recovery Act of 1976 (P.L. 94-580), as amended, and
13regulations pursuant thereto.
14 The applicant shall make available to the public for
15inspection all documents submitted by the applicant to the
16Agency in furtherance of an application, with the exception of

1 conduct, or other basis upon which the Agency will rely to
2 support its proposed action.
3 (g) The Agency shall include as conditions upon all
4permits issued for hazardous waste disposal sites such
5restrictions upon the future use of such sites as are
6reasonably necessary to protect public health and the
7environment, including permanent prohibition of the use of
8such sites for purposes which may create an unreasonable risk
9of injury to human health or to the environment. After
10administrative and judicial challenges to such restrictions
11have been exhausted, the Agency shall file such restrictions
12of record in the Office of the Recorder of the county in which
13the hazardous waste disposal site is located.
14 (h) A hazardous waste stream may not be deposited in a
15permitted hazardous waste site unless specific authorization
16is obtained from the Agency by the generator and disposal site
17owner and operator for the deposit of that specific hazardous
18waste stream. The Agency may grant specific authorization for
19disposal of hazardous waste streams only after the generator
20has reasonably demonstrated that, considering technological
21feasibility and economic reasonableness, the hazardous waste
22cannot be reasonably recycled for reuse, nor incinerated or
23chemically, physically or biologically treated so as to
24neutralize the hazardous waste and render it nonhazardous. In
25granting authorization under this Section, the Agency may
26impose such conditions as may be necessary to accomplish the

SB2435 Enrolled- 1591 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1purposes of the Act and are consistent with this Act and
2regulations promulgated by the Board hereunder. If the Agency
3refuses to grant authorization under this Section, the
4applicant may appeal as if the Agency refused to grant a
5permit, pursuant to the provisions of subsection (a) of
6Section 40 of this Act. For purposes of this subsection (h),
7the term "generator" has the meaning given in Section 3.205 of
8this Act, unless: (1) the hazardous waste is treated,
9incinerated, or partially recycled for reuse prior to
10disposal, in which case the last person who treats,
11incinerates, or partially recycles the hazardous waste prior
12to disposal is the generator; or (2) the hazardous waste is
13from a response action, in which case the person performing
14the response action is the generator. This subsection (h) does
15not apply to any hazardous waste that is restricted from land
16disposal under 35 Ill. Adm. Code 728.
17 (i) Before issuing any RCRA permit, any permit for a waste
18storage site, sanitary landfill, waste disposal site, waste
19transfer station, waste treatment facility, waste incinerator,
20or any waste-transportation operation, any permit or interim
21authorization for a clean construction or demolition debris
22fill operation, or any permit required under subsection (d-5)
23of Section 55, the Agency shall conduct an evaluation of the
24prospective owner's or operator's prior experience in waste
25management operations, clean construction or demolition debris
26fill operations, and tire storage site management. The Agency

SB2435 Enrolled- 1592 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1may deny such a permit, or deny or revoke interim
2authorization, if the prospective owner or operator or any
3employee or officer of the prospective owner or operator has a

14 (a)(1) If the Agency refuses to grant or grants with
15conditions a permit under Section 39 of this Act, the
16applicant may, within 35 days after the date on which the
17Agency served its decision on the applicant, petition for a

11burden of going forward with the basis for the derivation of
12those limits or criterion which were derived under the Board's
13rules.
14 (2) Except as provided in paragraph (a)(3), if there is no
15final action by the Board within 120 days after the date on
16which it received the petition, the petitioner may deem the
17permit issued under this Act, provided, however, that that
18period of 120 days shall not run for any period of time, not to
19exceed 30 days, during which the Board is without sufficient
20membership to constitute the quorum required by subsection (a)
21of Section 5 of this Act, and provided further that such 120
22day period shall not be stayed for lack of quorum beyond 30
23days regardless of whether the lack of quorum exists at the

26 (3) Paragraph (a)(2) shall not apply to any permit which

SB2435 Enrolled- 1605 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b

9which the Agency issued its decision, petition the Board for a
10hearing to contest the issuance of the permit. Unless the
11Board determines that such petition is duplicative or
12frivolous, or that the petitioner is so located as to not be
13affected by the permitted facility, the Board shall hear the
14petition in accordance with the terms of subsection (a) of
15this Section and its procedural rules governing denial
16appeals, such hearing to be based exclusively on the record
17before the Agency. The burden of proof shall be on the
18petitioner. The Agency and the permit applicant shall be named
19co-respondents.
20 The provisions of this subsection do not apply to the
21granting of permits issued for the disposal or utilization of
22sludge from publicly owned publicly-owned sewage works.
23 (c) Any party to an Agency proceeding conducted pursuant
24to Section 39.3 of this Act may petition as of right to the
25Board for review of the Agency's decision within 35 days from
26the date of issuance of the Agency's decision, provided that

SB2435 Enrolled- 1606 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1such appeal is not duplicative or frivolous. However, the
235-day period for petitioning for a hearing may be extended by
3the applicant for a period of time not to exceed 90 days by
4written notice provided to the Board from the applicant and
5the Agency within the initial appeal period. If another person
6with standing to appeal wishes to obtain an extension, there
7must be a written notice provided to the Board by that person,
8the Agency, and the applicant, within the initial appeal
9period. The decision of the Board shall be based exclusively
10on the record compiled in the Agency proceeding. In other
11respects the Board's review shall be conducted in accordance
12with subsection (a) of this Section and the Board's procedural
13rules governing permit denial appeals.
14 (d) In reviewing the denial or any condition of a NA NSR
15permit issued by the Agency pursuant to rules and regulations
16adopted under subsection (c) of Section 9.1 of this Act, the
17decision of the Board shall be based exclusively on the record
18before the Agency including the record of the hearing, if any,
19unless the parties agree to supplement the record. The Board
20shall, if it finds the Agency is in error, make a final
21determination as to the substantive limitations of the permit
22including a final determination of Lowest Achievable Emission
23Rate.
24 (e)(1) If the Agency grants or denies a permit under
25subsection (b) of Section 39 of this Act, a third party, other

5 (A) a demonstration that the petitioner raised the
6 issues contained within the petition during the public
7 notice period or during the public hearing on the NPDES
8 permit application, if a public hearing was held; and
9 (B) a demonstration that the petitioner is so situated
10 as to be affected by the permitted facility.
11 (3) If the Board determines that the petition is not
12duplicative or frivolous and contains a satisfactory
13demonstration under subdivision (2) of this subsection, the
14Board shall hear the petition (i) in accordance with the terms
15of subsection (a) of this Section and its procedural rules
16governing permit denial appeals and (ii) exclusively on the
17basis of the record before the Agency. The burden of proof
18shall be on the petitioner. The Agency and permit applicant
19shall be named co-respondents.
20 (f) Any person who files a petition to contest the
21issuance of a permit by the Agency shall pay a filing fee.
22 (g) If the Agency grants or denies a permit under
23subsection (y) of Section 39, a third party, other than the
24permit applicant or Agency, may appeal the Agency's decision

4 (a) Within 60 days of April 24, 2006 (the effective date of
5this Act), manufacturers of vehicles in Illinois that contain
6mercury switches must begin to implement a mercury switch
7collection program that facilitates the removal of mercury
8switches from end-of-life vehicles before the vehicles are
9flattened, crushed, shredded, or otherwise processed for
10recycling and to collect and properly manage mercury switches
11in accordance with the Environmental Protection Act and
12regulations adopted thereunder. In order to ensure that the
13mercury switches are removed and collected in a safe and
14consistent manner, manufacturers must, to the extent
15practicable, use the currently available end-of-life vehicle
16recycling infrastructure. The collection program must be
17designed to achieve capture rates of not less than (i) 35% for
18the period of July 1, 2006, through June 30, 2007; (ii) 50% for
19the period of July 1, 2007, through June 30, 2008; and (iii)
2070% for the period of July 1, 2008, through June 30, 2009 and

20 Sec. 2-31. Duration of wardship and discharge of
21proceedings.
22 (1) All proceedings under Article II of this Act in
23respect of any minor automatically terminate upon his or her
24attaining the age of 21 years.
25 (2) Whenever the court determines, and makes written

SB2435 Enrolled- 1768 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1factual findings, that health, safety, and the best interests
2of the minor and the public no longer require the wardship of
3the court, the court shall order the wardship terminated and
4all proceedings under this Act respecting that minor finally
5closed and discharged. The court may at the same time continue

10conjunction with an order partially or completely emancipating
11the minor in accordance with the Emancipation of Minors Act,
12the court shall also consider the following factors, in

25of Children and Family Services shall not by itself be
26considered sufficient evidence that the minor is prepared to

SB2435 Enrolled- 1769 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1live independently and that it is in the best interest of the
2minor to terminate wardship. It shall not be in the minor's
3best interest to terminate wardship of a minor over the age of
418 who is in the guardianship of the Department of Children and
5Family Services if the Department has not made reasonable
6efforts to ensure that the minor has documents necessary for

14 or circumstances which give rise to a charge or
15 adjudication of delinquency;
16 (v) placed in detention for a period not to exceed

14as well as an examination of the minor's person. Except as
15otherwise provided by law, the results of the test shall be
16kept strictly confidential by all medical personnel involved
17in the testing and must be personally delivered in a sealed
18envelope to the judge of the court in which the sentencing
19order was entered for the judge's inspection in camera. Acting
20in accordance with the best interests of the victim and the
21public, the judge shall have the discretion to determine to
22whom the results of the testing may be revealed. The court

9the minor.
10 (10) When a court finds a minor to be guilty the court
11shall, before entering a sentencing order under this Section,
12make a finding whether the offense committed either: (a) was
13related to or in furtherance of the criminal activities of an
14organized gang or was motivated by the minor's membership in
15or allegiance to an organized gang, or (b) involved a
16violation of subsection (a) of Section 12-7.1 of the Criminal
17Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012, a violation of any
18Section of Article 24 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the
19Criminal Code of 2012, or a violation of any statute that
20involved the wrongful use of a firearm. If the court
21determines the question in the affirmative, and the court does
22not commit the minor to the Department of Juvenile Justice,
23the court shall order the minor to perform community service
24for not less than 30 hours nor more than 120 hours, provided
25that community service is available in the jurisdiction and is
26funded and approved by the county board of the county where the

SB2435 Enrolled- 1780 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1offense was committed. The community service shall include,
2but need not be limited to, the cleanup and repair of any
3damage caused by a violation of Section 21-1.3 of the Criminal
4Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012 and similar damage to
5property located in the municipality or county in which the
6violation occurred. When possible and reasonable, the
7community service shall be performed in the minor's
8neighborhood. This order shall be in addition to any other
9order authorized by this Section except for an order to place
10the minor in the custody of the Department of Juvenile
11Justice. For the purposes of this Section, "organized gang"
12has the meaning ascribed to it in Section 10 of the Illinois
13Streetgang Terrorism Omnibus Prevention Act.
14 (11) If the court determines that the offense was
15committed in furtherance of the criminal activities of an
16organized gang, as provided in subsection (10), and that the
17offense involved the operation or use of a motor vehicle or the
18use of a driver's license or permit, the court shall notify the
19Secretary of State of that determination and of the period for
20which the minor shall be denied driving privileges. If, at the
21time of the determination, the minor does not hold a driver's
22license or permit, the court shall provide that the minor
23shall not be issued a driver's license or permit until his or
24her 18th birthday. If the minor holds a driver's license or
25permit at the time of the determination, the court shall
26provide that the minor's driver's license or permit shall be

SB2435 Enrolled- 1781 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1revoked until his or her 21st birthday, or until a later date
2or occurrence determined by the court. If the minor holds a
3driver's license at the time of the determination, the court
4may direct the Secretary of State to issue the minor a judicial
5driving permit, also known as a JDP. The JDP shall be subject
6to the same terms as a JDP issued under Section 6-206.1 of the
7Illinois Vehicle Code, except that the court may direct that
8the JDP be effective immediately.

22 whether the victim has asserted the right that may be at
23 issue.
24 (2) Victim's retained attorney. A victim's attorney
25 shall file an entry of appearance limited to assertion of
26 the victim's rights. Upon the filing of the entry of

SB2435 Enrolled- 1863 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 appearance and service on the State's Attorney and the
2 defendant, the attorney is to receive copies of all
3 notices, motions and court orders filed thereafter in the
4 case.
5 (3) Standing. The victim has standing to assert the
6 rights enumerated in subsection (a) of Article I, Section
7 8.1 of the Illinois Constitution and the statutory rights
8 under Section 4 of this Act in any court exercising
9 jurisdiction over the criminal case. The prosecuting
10 attorney, a victim, or the victim's retained attorney may
11 assert the victim's rights. The defendant in the criminal
12 case has no standing to assert a right of the victim in any
13 court proceeding, including on appeal.
14 (4) Assertion of and enforcement of rights.
15 (A) The prosecuting attorney shall assert a
16 victim's right or request enforcement of a right by
17 filing a motion or by orally asserting the right or
18 requesting enforcement in open court in the criminal
19 case outside the presence of the jury. The prosecuting
20 attorney shall consult with the victim and the
21 victim's attorney regarding the assertion or
22 enforcement of a right. If the prosecuting attorney
23 decides not to assert or enforce a victim's right, the
24 prosecuting attorney shall notify the victim or the
25 victim's attorney in sufficient time to allow the
26 victim or the victim's attorney to assert the right or

SB2435 Enrolled- 1864 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 to seek enforcement of a right.
2 (B) If the prosecuting attorney elects not to
3 assert a victim's right or to seek enforcement of a
4 right, the victim or the victim's attorney may assert
5 the victim's right or request enforcement of a right
6 by filing a motion or by orally asserting the right or
7 requesting enforcement in open court in the criminal
8 case outside the presence of the jury.
9 (C) If the prosecuting attorney asserts a victim's
10 right or seeks enforcement of a right, and the court
11 denies the assertion of the right or denies the
12 request for enforcement of a right, the victim or
13 victim's attorney may file a motion to assert the
14 victim's right or to request enforcement of the right
15 within 10 days of the court's ruling. The motion need
16 not demonstrate the grounds for a motion for
17 reconsideration. The court shall rule on the merits of
18 the motion.
19 (D) The court shall take up and decide any motion
20 or request asserting or seeking enforcement of a
21 victim's right without delay, unless a specific time
22 period is specified by law or court rule. The reasons
23 for any decision denying the motion or request shall
24 be clearly stated on the record.
25 (5) Violation of rights and remedies.
26 (A) If the court determines that a victim's right

SB2435 Enrolled- 1865 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 has been violated, the court shall determine the
2 appropriate remedy for the violation of the victim's
3 right by hearing from the victim and the parties,
4 considering all factors relevant to the issue, and
5 then awarding appropriate relief to the victim.
6 (A-5) Consideration of an issue of a substantive
7 nature or an issue that implicates the constitutional
8 or statutory right of a victim at a court proceeding
9 labeled as a status hearing shall constitute a per se
10 violation of a victim's right.
11 (B) The appropriate remedy shall include only
12 actions necessary to provide the victim the right to
13 which the victim was entitled and may include
14 reopening previously held proceedings; however, in no
15 event shall the court vacate a conviction. Any remedy
16 shall be tailored to provide the victim an appropriate
17 remedy without violating any constitutional right of
18 the defendant. In no event shall the appropriate
19 remedy be a new trial, damages, or costs.
20 (6) Right to be heard. Whenever a victim has the right
21 to be heard, the court shall allow the victim to exercise
22 the right in any reasonable manner the victim chooses.
23 (7) Right to attend trial. A party must file a written
24 motion to exclude a victim from trial at least 60 days
25 prior to the date set for trial. The motion must state with
26 specificity the reason exclusion is necessary to protect a

SB2435 Enrolled- 1866 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 constitutional right of the party, and must contain an
2 offer of proof. The court shall rule on the motion within
3 30 days. If the motion is granted, the court shall set
4 forth on the record the facts that support its finding
5 that the victim's testimony will be materially affected if
6 the victim hears other testimony at trial.
7 (8) Right to have advocate and support person present
8 at court proceedings.
9 (A) A party who intends to call an advocate as a
10 witness at trial must seek permission of the court
11 before the subpoena is issued. The party must file a
12 written motion at least 90 days before trial that sets
13 forth specifically the issues on which the advocate's
14 testimony is sought and an offer of proof regarding
15 (i) the content of the anticipated testimony of the
16 advocate; and (ii) the relevance, admissibility, and
17 materiality of the anticipated testimony. The court
18 shall consider the motion and make findings within 30
19 days of the filing of the motion. If the court finds by
20 a preponderance of the evidence that: (i) the
21 anticipated testimony is not protected by an absolute
22 privilege; and (ii) the anticipated testimony contains
23 relevant, admissible, and material evidence that is
24 not available through other witnesses or evidence, the
25 court shall issue a subpoena requiring the advocate to
26 appear to testify at an in camera hearing. The

SB2435 Enrolled- 1867 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 prosecuting attorney and the victim shall have 15 days
2 to seek appellate review before the advocate is
3 required to testify at an ex parte in camera
4 proceeding.
5 The prosecuting attorney, the victim, and the
6 advocate's attorney shall be allowed to be present at
7 the ex parte in camera proceeding. If, after
8 conducting the ex parte in camera hearing, the court
9 determines that due process requires any testimony
10 regarding confidential or privileged information or
11 communications, the court shall provide to the
12 prosecuting attorney, the victim, and the advocate's
13 attorney a written memorandum on the substance of the
14 advocate's testimony. The prosecuting attorney, the
15 victim, and the advocate's attorney shall have 15 days
16 to seek appellate review before a subpoena may be
17 issued for the advocate to testify at trial. The
18 presence of the prosecuting attorney at the ex parte
19 in camera proceeding does not make the substance of
20 the advocate's testimony that the court has ruled
21 inadmissible subject to discovery.
22 (B) If a victim has asserted the right to have a
23 support person present at the court proceedings, the
24 victim shall provide the name of the person the victim
25 has chosen to be the victim's support person to the
26 prosecuting attorney, within 60 days of trial. The

SB2435 Enrolled- 1868 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 prosecuting attorney shall provide the name to the
2 defendant. If the defendant intends to call the
3 support person as a witness at trial, the defendant
4 must seek permission of the court before a subpoena is
5 issued. The defendant must file a written motion at
6 least 45 days prior to trial that sets forth
7 specifically the issues on which the support person
8 will testify and an offer of proof regarding: (i) the
9 content of the anticipated testimony of the support
10 person; and (ii) the relevance, admissibility, and
11 materiality of the anticipated testimony.
12 If the prosecuting attorney intends to call the
13 support person as a witness during the State's
14 case-in-chief, the prosecuting attorney shall inform
15 the court of this intent in the response to the
16 defendant's written motion. The victim may choose a
17 different person to be the victim's support person.
18 The court may allow the defendant to inquire about
19 matters outside the scope of the direct examination
20 during cross-examination. If the court allows the
21 defendant to do so, the support person shall be
22 allowed to remain in the courtroom after the support
23 person has testified. A defendant who fails to
24 question the support person about matters outside the
25 scope of direct examination during the State's
26 case-in-chief waives the right to challenge the

SB2435 Enrolled- 1869 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 presence of the support person on appeal. The court
2 shall allow the support person to testify if called as
3 a witness in the defendant's case-in-chief or the
4 State's rebuttal.
5 If the court does not allow the defendant to
6 inquire about matters outside the scope of the direct
7 examination, the support person shall be allowed to
8 remain in the courtroom after the support person has
9 been called by the defendant or the defendant has
10 rested. The court shall allow the support person to
11 testify in the State's rebuttal.
12 If the prosecuting attorney does not intend to
13 call the support person in the State's case-in-chief,
14 the court shall verify with the support person whether
15 the support person, if called as a witness, would
16 testify as set forth in the offer of proof. If the
17 court finds that the support person would testify as
18 set forth in the offer of proof, the court shall rule
19 on the relevance, materiality, and admissibility of
20 the anticipated testimony. If the court rules the
21 anticipated testimony is admissible, the court shall
22 issue the subpoena. The support person may remain in
23 the courtroom after the support person testifies and
24 shall be allowed to testify in rebuttal.
25 If the court excludes the victim's support person
26 during the State's case-in-chief, the victim shall be

SB2435 Enrolled- 1870 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 allowed to choose another support person to be present
2 in court.
3 If the victim fails to designate a support person
4 within 60 days of trial and the defendant has
5 subpoenaed the support person to testify at trial, the
6 court may exclude the support person from the trial
7 until the support person testifies. If the court
8 excludes the support person the victim may choose
9 another person as a support person.
10 (9) Right to notice and hearing before disclosure of
11 confidential or privileged information or records. A
12 defendant who seeks to subpoena records of or concerning
13 the victim that are confidential or privileged by law must
14 seek permission of the court before the subpoena is
15 issued. The defendant must file a written motion and an
16 offer of proof regarding the relevance, admissibility and
17 materiality of the records. If the court finds by a
18 preponderance of the evidence that: (A) the records are
19 not protected by an absolute privilege and (B) the records
20 contain relevant, admissible, and material evidence that
21 is not available through other witnesses or evidence, the
22 court shall issue a subpoena requiring a sealed copy of
23 the records be delivered to the court to be reviewed in
24 camera. If, after conducting an in camera review of the
25 records, the court determines that due process requires
26 disclosure of any portion of the records, the court shall

SB2435 Enrolled- 1871 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 provide copies of what it intends to disclose to the
2 prosecuting attorney and the victim. The prosecuting
3 attorney and the victim shall have 30 days to seek
4 appellate review before the records are disclosed to the
5 defendant. The disclosure of copies of any portion of the
6 records to the prosecuting attorney does not make the
7 records subject to discovery.
8 (10) Right to notice of court proceedings. If the
9 victim is not present at a court proceeding in which a
10 right of the victim is at issue, the court shall ask the
11 prosecuting attorney whether the victim was notified of
12 the time, place, and purpose of the court proceeding and
13 that the victim had a right to be heard at the court
14 proceeding. If the court determines that timely notice was
15 not given or that the victim was not adequately informed
16 of the nature of the court proceeding, the court shall not
17 rule on any substantive issues, accept a plea, or impose a
18 sentence and shall continue the hearing for the time
19 necessary to notify the victim of the time, place and
20 nature of the court proceeding. The time between court
21 proceedings shall not be attributable to the State under
22 Section 103-5 of the Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963.
23 (11) Right to timely disposition of the case. A victim
24 has the right to timely disposition of the case so as to
25 minimize the stress, cost, and inconvenience resulting
26 from the victim's involvement in the case. Before ruling

SB2435 Enrolled- 1872 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 on a motion to continue trial or other court proceeding,
2 the court shall inquire into the circumstances for the
3 request for the delay and, if the victim has provided
4 written notice of the assertion of the right to a timely
5 disposition, and whether the victim objects to the delay.
6 If the victim objects, the prosecutor shall inform the
7 court of the victim's objections. If the prosecutor has
8 not conferred with the victim about the continuance, the
9 prosecutor shall inform the court of the attempts to
10 confer. If the court finds the attempts of the prosecutor
11 to confer with the victim were inadequate to protect the
12 victim's right to be heard, the court shall give the
13 prosecutor at least 3 but not more than 5 business days to
14 confer with the victim. In ruling on a motion to continue,
15 the court shall consider the reasons for the requested
16 continuance, the number and length of continuances that
17 have been granted, the victim's objections and procedures
18 to avoid further delays. If a continuance is granted over
19 the victim's objection, the court shall specify on the
20 record the reasons for the continuance and the procedures
21 that have been or will be taken to avoid further delays.
22 (12) Right to Restitution.
23 (A) If the victim has asserted the right to
24 restitution and the amount of restitution is known at
25 the time of sentencing, the court shall enter the
26 judgment of restitution at the time of sentencing.

SB2435 Enrolled- 1873 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 (B) If the victim has asserted the right to
2 restitution and the amount of restitution is not known
3 at the time of sentencing, the prosecutor shall,
4 within 5 days after sentencing, notify the victim what
5 information and documentation related to restitution
6 is needed and that the information and documentation
7 must be provided to the prosecutor within 45 days
8 after sentencing. Failure to timely provide
9 information and documentation related to restitution
10 shall be deemed a waiver of the right to restitution.
11 The prosecutor shall file and serve within 60 days
12 after sentencing a proposed judgment for restitution
13 and a notice that includes information concerning the
14 identity of any victims or other persons seeking
15 restitution, whether any victim or other person
16 expressly declines restitution, the nature and amount
17 of any damages together with any supporting
18 documentation, a restitution amount recommendation,
19 and the names of any co-defendants and their case
20 numbers. Within 30 days after receipt of the proposed
21 judgment for restitution, the defendant shall file any
22 objection to the proposed judgment, a statement of
23 grounds for the objection, and a financial statement.
24 If the defendant does not file an objection, the court
25 may enter the judgment for restitution without further
26 proceedings. If the defendant files an objection and

SB2435 Enrolled- 1874 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 either party requests a hearing, the court shall
2 schedule a hearing.
3 (13) Access to presentence reports.
4 (A) The victim may request a copy of the
5 presentence report prepared under the Unified Code of
6 Corrections from the State's Attorney. The State's
7 Attorney shall redact the following information before
8 providing a copy of the report:
9 (i) the defendant's mental history and
10 condition;
11 (ii) any evaluation prepared under subsection
12 (b) or (b-5) of Section 5-3-2; and
13 (iii) the name, address, phone number, and
14 other personal information about any other victim.
15 (B) The State's Attorney or the defendant may
16 request the court redact other information in the
17 report that may endanger the safety of any person.
18 (C) The State's Attorney may orally disclose to
19 the victim any of the information that has been
20 redacted if there is a reasonable likelihood that the
21 information will be stated in court at the sentencing.
22 (D) The State's Attorney must advise the victim
23 that the victim must maintain the confidentiality of
24 the report and other information. Any dissemination of
25 the report or information that was not stated at a
26 court proceeding constitutes indirect criminal

SB2435 Enrolled- 1875 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 contempt of court.
2 (14) Appellate relief. If the trial court denies the
3 relief requested, the victim, the victim's attorney, or
4 the prosecuting attorney may file an appeal within 30 days
5 of the trial court's ruling. The trial or appellate court
6 may stay the court proceedings if the court finds that a
7 stay would not violate a constitutional right of the
8 defendant. If the appellate court denies the relief
9 sought, the reasons for the denial shall be clearly stated
10 in a written opinion. In any appeal in a criminal case, the
11 State may assert as error the court's denial of any crime
12 victim's right in the proceeding to which the appeal
13 relates.
14 (15) Limitation on appellate relief. In no case shall
15 an appellate court provide a new trial to remedy the
16 violation of a victim's right.
17 (16) The right to be reasonably protected from the
18 accused throughout the criminal justice process and the
19 right to have the safety of the victim and the victim's
20 family considered in denying or fixing the amount of bail,
21 determining whether to release the defendant, and setting
22 conditions of release after arrest and conviction. A
23 victim of domestic violence, a sexual offense, or stalking
24 may request the entry of a protective order under Article
25 112A of the Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963.
26 (d) Procedures after the imposition of sentence.

SB2435 Enrolled- 1876 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 (1) The Prisoner Review Board shall inform a victim or
2 any other concerned citizen, upon written request, of the
3 prisoner's release on parole, mandatory supervised
4 release, electronic detention, work release, international
5 transfer or exchange, or by the custodian, other than the
6 Department of Juvenile Justice, of the discharge of any
7 individual who was adjudicated a delinquent for a crime
8 from State custody and by the sheriff of the appropriate
9 county of any such person's final discharge from county

16 prior to the prisoner's release on furlough of the times
17 and dates of such furlough. Upon written request by the
18 victim or any other concerned citizen, the State's
19 Attorney shall notify the person once of the times and
20 dates of release of a prisoner sentenced to periodic
21 imprisonment. Notification shall be based on the most
22 recent information as to victim's or other concerned
23 citizen's residence or other location available to the
24 notifying authority.
25 (2) When the defendant has been committed to the
26 Department of Human Services pursuant to Section 5-2-4 or

SB2435 Enrolled- 1877 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 any other provision of the Unified Code of Corrections,
2 the victim may request to be notified by the releasing
3 authority of the approval by the court of an on-grounds
4 pass, a supervised off-grounds pass, an unsupervised
5 off-grounds pass, or conditional release; the release on
6 an off-grounds pass; the return from an off-grounds pass;
7 transfer to another facility; conditional release; escape;
8 death; or final discharge from State custody. The
9 Department of Human Services shall establish and maintain
10 a statewide telephone number to be used by victims to make
11 notification requests under these provisions and shall
12 publicize this telephone number on its website and to the
13 State's Attorney of each county.
14 (3) In the event of an escape from State custody, the
15 Department of Corrections or the Department of Juvenile
16 Justice immediately shall notify the Prisoner Review Board
17 of the escape and the Prisoner Review Board shall notify
18 the victim. The notification shall be based upon the most
19 recent information as to the victim's residence or other
20 location available to the Board. When no such information
21 is available, the Board shall make all reasonable efforts
22 to obtain the information and make the notification. When
23 the escapee is apprehended, the Department of Corrections
24 or the Department of Juvenile Justice immediately shall
25 notify the Prisoner Review Board and the Board shall
26 notify the victim.

SB2435 Enrolled- 1878 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 (4) The victim of the crime for which the prisoner has
2 been sentenced has the right to register with the Prisoner
3 Review Board's victim registry. Victims registered with
4 the Board shall receive reasonable written notice not less
5 than 30 days prior to the parole hearing or target
6 aftercare release date. The victim has the right to submit
7 a victim statement for consideration by the Prisoner
8 Review Board or the Department of Juvenile Justice in

1 (4-1) The crime victim has the right to submit a
2 victim statement for consideration by the Prisoner Review
3 Board or the Department of Juvenile Justice prior to or at
4 a hearing to determine the conditions of mandatory
5 supervised release of a person sentenced to a determinate
6 sentence or at a hearing on revocation of mandatory
7 supervised release of a person sentenced to a determinate

9 Sec. 5-2-4. Proceedings after acquittal by reason of
10insanity.
11 (a) After a finding or verdict of not guilty by reason of
12insanity under Sections 104-25, 115-3, or 115-4 of the Code of
13Criminal Procedure of 1963, the defendant shall be ordered to
14the Department of Human Services for an evaluation as to
15whether he is in need of mental health services. The order
16shall specify whether the evaluation shall be conducted on an
17inpatient or outpatient basis. If the evaluation is to be
18conducted on an inpatient basis, the defendant shall be placed
19in a secure setting. With the court order for evaluation shall
20be sent a copy of the arrest report, criminal charges, arrest
21record, jail record, any report prepared under Section 115-6
22of the Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963, and any statement
23prepared under Section 6 of the Rights of Crime Victims and
24Witnesses Act. The clerk of the circuit court shall transmit
25this information to the Department within 5 days. If the court

SB2435 Enrolled- 1937 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1orders that the evaluation be done on an inpatient basis, the
2Department shall evaluate the defendant to determine to which
3secure facility the defendant shall be transported and, within
420 days of the transmittal by the clerk of the circuit court of
5the placement court order, notify the sheriff of the
6designated facility. Upon receipt of that notice, the sheriff
7shall promptly transport the defendant to the designated
8facility. During the period of time required to determine the
9appropriate placement, the defendant shall remain in jail. If,
10within 20 days of the transmittal by the clerk of the circuit
11court of the placement court order, the Department fails to
12notify the sheriff of the identity of the facility to which the
13defendant shall be transported, the sheriff shall contact a
14designated person within the Department to inquire about when
15a placement will become available at the designated facility
16and bed availability at other facilities. If, within 20 days
17of the transmittal by the clerk of the circuit court of the
18placement court order, the Department fails to notify the
19sheriff of the identity of the facility to which the defendant
20shall be transported, the sheriff shall notify the Department
21of its intent to transfer the defendant to the nearest secure
22mental health facility operated by the Department and inquire
23as to the status of the placement evaluation and availability
24for admission to the facility operated by the Department by
25contacting a designated person within the Department. The
26Department shall respond to the sheriff within 2 business days

SB2435 Enrolled- 1938 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1of the notice and inquiry by the sheriff seeking the transfer
2and the Department shall provide the sheriff with the status
3of the placement evaluation, information on bed and placement
4availability, and an estimated date of admission for the
5defendant and any changes to that estimated date of admission.
6If the Department notifies the sheriff during the 2 business
7day period of a facility operated by the Department with
8placement availability, the sheriff shall promptly transport
9the defendant to that facility. Individualized placement
10evaluations by the Department of Human Services determine the
11most appropriate setting for forensic treatment based upon a
12number of factors including mental health diagnosis, proximity
13to surviving victims, security need, age, gender, and
14proximity to family.
15 The Department shall provide the Court with a report of
16its evaluation within 30 days of the date of this order. The
17Court shall hold a hearing as provided under the Mental Health
18and Developmental Disabilities Code to determine if the
19individual is: (a) in need of mental health services on an
20inpatient basis; (b) in need of mental health services on an
21outpatient basis; (c) a person not in need of mental health
22services. The court shall afford the victim the opportunity to
23make a written or oral statement as guaranteed by Article I,
24Section 8.1 of the Illinois Constitution and Section 6 of the
25Rights of Crime Victims and Witnesses Act. The court shall
26allow a victim to make an oral statement if the victim is

SB2435 Enrolled- 1939 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1present in the courtroom and requests to make an oral
2statement. An oral statement includes the victim or a
3representative of the victim reading the written statement.
4The court may allow persons impacted by the crime who are not
5victims under subsection (a) of Section 3 of the Rights of
6Crime Victims and Witnesses Act to present an oral or written
7statement. A victim and any person making an oral statement
8shall not be put under oath or subject to cross-examination.
9The court shall consider any statement presented along with
10all other appropriate factors in determining the sentence of
11the defendant or disposition of the juvenile. All statements
12shall become part of the record of the court.
13 If the defendant is found to be in need of mental health
14services on an inpatient care basis, the Court shall order the
15defendant to the Department of Human Services. The defendant
16shall be placed in a secure setting. Such defendants placed in
17a secure setting shall not be permitted outside the facility's
18housing unit unless escorted or accompanied by personnel of
19the Department of Human Services or with the prior approval of
20the Court for unsupervised on-grounds privileges as provided
21herein. Any defendant placed in a secure setting pursuant to
22this Section, transported to court hearings or other necessary
23appointments off facility grounds by personnel of the
24Department of Human Services, shall be placed in security
25devices or otherwise secured during the period of
26transportation to assure secure transport of the defendant and

SB2435 Enrolled- 1940 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1the safety of Department of Human Services personnel and
2others. These security measures shall not constitute restraint
3as defined in the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities
4Code. If the defendant is found to be in need of mental health
5services, but not on an inpatient care basis, the Court shall
6conditionally release the defendant, under such conditions as
7set forth in this Section as will reasonably assure the
8defendant's satisfactory progress and participation in
9treatment or rehabilitation and the safety of the defendant,
10the victim, the victim's family members, and others. If the
11Court finds the person not in need of mental health services,
12then the Court shall order the defendant discharged from
13custody.

15 (A) (Blank).
16 (B) "In need of mental health services on an inpatient
17 basis" means: a defendant who has been found not guilty by
18 reason of insanity but who, due to mental illness, is
19 reasonably expected to inflict serious physical harm upon
20 himself or another and who would benefit from inpatient
21 care or is in need of inpatient care.
22 (C) "In need of mental health services on an
23 outpatient basis" means: a defendant who has been found
24 not guilty by reason of insanity who is not in need of
25 mental health services on an inpatient basis, but is in

1 rehabilitation programs, community adjustment programs,
2 individual, group, or family therapy, or chemotherapy.
3 (D) "Conditional Release" means: the release from
4 either the custody of the Department of Human Services or
5 the custody of the Court of a person who has been found not
6 guilty by reason of insanity under such conditions as the
7 Court may impose which reasonably assure the defendant's
8 satisfactory progress in treatment or habilitation and the
9 safety of the defendant, the victim, the victim's family,
10 and others. The Court shall consider such terms and
11 conditions which may include, but need not be limited to,
12 outpatient care, alcoholic and drug rehabilitation
13 programs, community adjustment programs, individual,
14 group, family, and chemotherapy, random testing to ensure
15 the defendant's timely and continuous taking of any
16 medicines prescribed to control or manage his or her
17 conduct or mental state, and periodic checks with the
18 legal authorities and/or the Department of Human Services.
19 The Court may order as a condition of conditional release
20 that the defendant not contact the victim of the offense
21 that resulted in the finding or verdict of not guilty by
22 reason of insanity or any other person. The Court may
23 order the Department of Human Services to provide care to
24 any person conditionally released under this Section. The
25 Department may contract with any public or private agency
26 in order to discharge any responsibilities imposed under

SB2435 Enrolled- 1942 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 this Section. The Department shall monitor the provision
2 of services to persons conditionally released under this
3 Section and provide periodic reports to the Court
4 concerning the services and the condition of the
5 defendant. Whenever a person is conditionally released
6 pursuant to this Section, the State's Attorney for the
7 county in which the hearing is held shall designate in
8 writing the name, telephone number, and address of a
9 person employed by him or her who shall be notified in the
10 event that either the reporting agency or the Department
11 decides that the conditional release of the defendant
12 should be revoked or modified pursuant to subsection (i)

15 or facility rendering the treatment, therapy, program or
16 outpatient care, the Department, or the State's Attorney
17 may petition the Court for an extension of the conditional
18 release period for an additional 5 years. Upon receipt of
19 such a petition, the Court shall hold a hearing consistent
20 with the provisions of paragraph (a), this paragraph
21 (a-1), and paragraph (f) of this Section, shall determine
22 whether the defendant should continue to be subject to the
23 terms of conditional release, and shall enter an order
24 either extending the defendant's period of conditional
25 release for an additional 5-year period or discharging the

2 this Section. However, in no event shall the defendant's
3 period of conditional release continue beyond the maximum
4 period of commitment ordered by the Court pursuant to
5 paragraph (b) of this Section. These provisions for
6 extension of conditional release shall only apply to
7 defendants conditionally released on or after August 8,
8 2003. However, the extension provisions of Public Act
9 83-1449 apply only to defendants charged with a forcible
10 felony.
11 (E) "Facility director" means the chief officer of a
12 mental health or developmental disabilities facility or
13 his or her designee or the supervisor of a program of
14 treatment or habilitation or his or her designee.
15 "Designee" may include a physician, clinical psychologist,
16 social worker, nurse, or clinical professional counselor.
17 (b) If the Court finds the defendant in need of mental
18health services on an inpatient basis, the admission,
19detention, care, treatment or habilitation, treatment plans,
20review proceedings, including review of treatment and
21treatment plans, and discharge of the defendant after such
22order shall be under the Mental Health and Developmental
23Disabilities Code, except that the initial order for admission
24of a defendant acquitted of a felony by reason of insanity
25shall be for an indefinite period of time. Such period of
26commitment shall not exceed the maximum length of time that

SB2435 Enrolled- 1944 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1the defendant would have been required to serve, less credit
2for good behavior as provided in Section 5-4-1 of the Unified
3Code of Corrections, before becoming eligible for release had
4he been convicted of and received the maximum sentence for the
5most serious crime for which he has been acquitted by reason of
6insanity. The Court shall determine the maximum period of
7commitment by an appropriate order. During this period of
8time, the defendant shall not be permitted to be in the
9community in any manner, including, but not limited to,
10off-grounds privileges, with or without escort by personnel of
11the Department of Human Services, unsupervised on-grounds
12privileges, discharge or conditional or temporary release,
13except by a plan as provided in this Section. In no event shall
14a defendant's continued unauthorized absence be a basis for
15discharge. Not more than 30 days after admission and every 90
16days thereafter so long as the initial order remains in
17effect, the facility director shall file a treatment plan
18report in writing with the court and forward a copy of the
19treatment plan report to the clerk of the court, the State's

1outpatient basis. The report shall also summarize the basis
2for those findings and provide a current summary of the
3following items from the treatment plan: (1) an assessment of
4the defendant's treatment needs, (2) a description of the
5services recommended for treatment, (3) the goals of each type
6of element of service, (4) an anticipated timetable for the
7accomplishment of the goals, and (5) a designation of the

9the plan. The report may also include unsupervised on-grounds
10privileges, off-grounds privileges (with or without escort by
11personnel of the Department of Human Services), home visits
12and participation in work programs, but only where such
13privileges have been approved by specific court order, which
14order may include such conditions on the defendant as the
15Court may deem appropriate and necessary to reasonably assure
16the defendant's satisfactory progress in treatment and the
17safety of the defendant and others.
18 (c) Every defendant acquitted of a felony by reason of
19insanity and subsequently found to be in need of mental health
20services shall be represented by counsel in all proceedings

3 services. If the defendant is unable to pay the fee, the
4 Court shall enter an order upon the State to pay the entire
5 fee or such amount as the defendant is unable to pay from
6 funds appropriated by the General Assembly for that
7 purpose.
8 (d) When the facility director determines that:
9 (1) the defendant is no longer in need of mental
10 health services on an inpatient basis; and
11 (2) the defendant may be conditionally released
12 because he or she is still in need of mental health
13 services or that the defendant may be discharged as not in
14 need of any mental health services; or
15 (3) (blank);
16the facility director shall give written notice to the Court,
17State's Attorney and defense attorney. Such notice shall set
18forth in detail the basis for the recommendation of the
19facility director, and specify clearly the recommendations, if
20any, of the facility director, concerning conditional release.
21Any recommendation for conditional release shall include an
22evaluation of the defendant's need for psychotropic
23medication, what provisions should be made, if any, to ensure
24that the defendant will continue to receive psychotropic
25medication following discharge, and what provisions should be
26made to assure the safety of the defendant and others in the

SB2435 Enrolled- 1947 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1event the defendant is no longer receiving psychotropic

18statement shall not be put under oath or subject to
19cross-examination. All statements shall become part of the
20record of the court.
21 Upon finding by the Court, the Court shall enter its

11the defendant by a psychiatrist or clinical psychologist as
12defined in Section 1-103 of the Mental Health and
13Developmental Disabilities Code who is not in the employ of
14the Department of Human Services shall be ordered, and the
15report considered at the time of the hearing.
16 (g) The findings of the Court shall be established by
17clear and convincing evidence. The burden of proof and the
18burden of going forth with the evidence rest with the
19defendant or any person on the defendant's behalf when a
20hearing is held to review a petition filed by or on behalf of
21the defendant. The evidence shall be presented in open Court
22with the right of confrontation and cross-examination. Such
23evidence may include, but is not limited to:
24 (1) whether the defendant appreciates the harm caused
25 by the defendant to others and the community by his or her

SB2435 Enrolled- 1950 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 (h) Before the court orders that the defendant be
2discharged or conditionally released, it shall order the
3facility director to establish a discharge plan that includes
4a plan for the defendant's shelter, support, and medication.
5If appropriate, the court shall order that the facility
6director establish a program to train the defendant in
7self-medication under standards established by the Department
8of Human Services. If the Court finds, consistent with the
9provisions of this Section, that the defendant is no longer in
10need of mental health services it shall order the facility
11director to discharge the defendant. If the Court finds,
12consistent with the provisions of this Section, that the
13defendant is in need of mental health services, and no longer
14in need of inpatient care, it shall order the facility
15director to release the defendant under such conditions as the
16Court deems appropriate and as provided by this Section. Such
17conditional release shall be imposed for a period of 5 years as

19subject to later modification by the Court as provided by this
20Section. If the Court finds consistent with the provisions in
21this Section that the defendant is in need of mental health
22services on an inpatient basis, it shall order the facility
23director not to discharge or release the defendant in
24accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section.
25 (i) If within the period of the defendant's conditional
26release the State's Attorney determines that the defendant has

SB2435 Enrolled- 1951 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1not fulfilled the conditions of his or her release, the
2State's Attorney may petition the Court to revoke or modify
3the conditional release of the defendant. Upon the filing of
4such petition the defendant may be remanded to the custody of
5the Department, or to any other mental health facility
6designated by the Department, pending the resolution of the
7petition. Nothing in this Section shall prevent the emergency
8admission of a defendant pursuant to Article VI of Chapter III
9of the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Code or
10the voluntary admission of the defendant pursuant to Article
11IV of Chapter III of the Mental Health and Developmental
12Disabilities Code. If the Court determines, after hearing
13evidence, that the defendant has not fulfilled the conditions
14of release, the Court shall order a hearing to be held
15consistent with the provisions of paragraph (f) and (g) of
16this Section. At such hearing, if the Court finds that the
17defendant is in need of mental health services on an inpatient
18basis, it shall enter an order remanding him or her to the
19Department of Human Services or other facility. If the
20defendant is remanded to the Department of Human Services, he
21or she shall be placed in a secure setting unless the Court
22determines that there are compelling reasons that such
23placement is not necessary. If the Court finds that the
24defendant continues to be in need of mental health services
25but not on an inpatient basis, it may modify the conditions of
26the original release in order to reasonably assure the

SB2435 Enrolled- 1952 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1defendant's satisfactory progress in treatment and his or her
2safety and the safety of others in accordance with the
3standards established in paragraph (D) of subsection (a-1).
4Nothing in this Section shall limit a Court's contempt powers
5or any other powers of a Court.
6 (j) An order of admission under this Section does not
7affect the remedy of habeas corpus.
8 (k) In the event of a conflict between this Section and the
9Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Code or the
10Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Confidentiality
11Act, the provisions of this Section shall govern.
12 (l) Public Act 90-593 shall apply to all persons who have

SB2435 Enrolled- 1953 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1supervision for access and use of appropriate law enforcement
2agencies.
3 (n) The provisions in this Section which allow allows a
4crime victim to make a written and oral statement do not apply
5if the defendant was under 18 years of age at the time the
6offense was committed.
7 (o) If any provision of this Section or its application to
8any person or circumstance is held invalid, the invalidity of
9that provision does not affect any other provision or
10application of this Section that can be given effect without

21fee. The court may not impose the fee on a minor who is placed
22in the guardianship or custody of the Department of Children
23and Family Services under the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 while
24the minor is in placement. The fee shall be imposed only upon

8court has adopted, by administrative order issued by the chief
9judge, a standard probation fee guide determining an
10offender's ability to pay. Of the amount collected as a
11probation fee, up to $5 of that fee collected per month may be
12used to provide services to crime victims and their families.
13 The Court may only waive probation fees based on an
14offender's ability to pay. The probation department may
15re-evaluate an offender's ability to pay every 6 months, and,
16with the approval of the Director of Court Services or the
17Chief Probation Officer, adjust the monthly fee amount. An
18offender may elect to pay probation fees due in a lump sum. Any
19offender that has been assigned to the supervision of a
20probation department, or has been transferred either under
21subsection (h) of this Section or under any interstate
22compact, shall be required to pay probation fees to the
23department supervising the offender, based on the offender's
24ability to pay.

26under this subsection that was imposed by Public Act 93-616.

SB2435 Enrolled- 1994 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b

12 (5) the new evidence of domestic violence against the
13 movant is material and noncumulative to other evidence
14 offered at the sentencing hearing, and is of such a

18 such, she was unable to receive proper treatment; and
19 (E) evidence of post-partum depression or post-partum
20 psychosis as suffered by the person is material and
21 noncumulative to other evidence offered at the time of
22 trial or sentencing, and it is of such a conclusive
23 character that it would likely change the sentence imposed
24 by the original court.

14the defenses of any party failing to pay the fees, costs, and
15charges within the time and in the manner ordered by the court.

SB2435 Enrolled- 2024 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1case, the court obtains information, including information
2from the court file, suggesting that a person whose fees,
3costs, and charges were initially waived was not entitled to a
4full or partial waiver at the time of application, the court
5may require the person to appear at a court hearing by giving
6the applicant no less than 10 days' written notice of the
7hearing and the specific reasons why the initial waiver might
8be reconsidered. The court may require the applicant to
9provide reasonably available evidence, including financial
10information, to support his or her eligibility for the waiver,
11but the court shall not require submission of information that
12is unrelated to the criteria for eligibility and application
13requirements set forth in subdivision (b)(1) or (b)(2) of this
14Section. If the court finds that the person was not initially
15entitled to any waiver, the person shall pay all fees, costs,
16and charges relating to the civil action, including any
17previously waived fees, costs, and charges. The order may
18state terms of payment in accordance with subsection (e). The
19court shall not conduct a hearing under this subsection more
20often than once every 6 months.
21 (f-10) If, before or at the time of final disposition of
22the case, the court obtains information, including information
23from the court file, suggesting that a person who received a
24full or partial waiver has experienced a change in financial
25condition so that he or she is no longer eligible for that
26waiver, the court may require the person to appear at a court

SB2435 Enrolled- 2025 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1hearing by giving the applicant no less than 10 days' written
2notice of the hearing and the specific reasons why the waiver
3might be reconsidered. The court may require the person to
4provide reasonably available evidence, including financial
5information, to support his or her continued eligibility for
6the waiver, but shall not require submission of information
7that is unrelated to the criteria for eligibility and
8application requirements set forth in subdivisions (b)(1) and
9(b)(2) of this Section. If the court enters an order finding
10that the person is no longer entitled to a waiver, or is
11entitled to a partial waiver different than that which the
12person had previously received, the person shall pay the
13requisite fees, costs, and charges from the date of the order
14going forward. The order may state terms of payment in
15accordance with subsection (e) of this Section. The court
16shall not conduct a hearing under this subsection more often
17than once every 6 months.
18 (g) A court, in its discretion, may appoint counsel to
19represent an indigent person, and that counsel shall perform
20his or her duties without fees, charges, or reward.
21 (h) Nothing in this Section shall be construed to affect
22the right of a party to sue or defend an action in forma
23pauperis without the payment of fees, costs, charges, or the
24right of a party to court-appointed counsel, as authorized by
25any other provision of law or by the rules of the Illinois
26Supreme Court. Nothing in this Section shall be construed to

SB2435 Enrolled- 2026 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1limit the authority of a court to order another party to the
2action to pay the fees, costs, and charges of the action.
3 (h-5) If a party is represented by a civil legal services
4provider or an attorney in a court-sponsored pro bono program
5as defined in Section 5-105.5 of this Code, the attorney
6representing that party shall file a certification with the
7court in accordance with Supreme Court Rule 298 and that party
8shall be allowed to sue or defend without payment of fees,
9costs, and charges without filing an application under this
10Section.

13 and Neglected Child Reporting Act to correct the
14 conditions that were the basis for the removal of the
15 child from the parent and if those services were
16 available, then, for purposes of this Act, "failure to

1 that specifies the 9-month period or periods relied on.
2 The pleading shall be filed and served on the parties no
3 later than 3 weeks before the date set by the court for
4 closure of discovery, and the allegations in the pleading

7 of the allegations in the pleading shall not be treated as
8 an admission that the allegations are true.
9 (m-1) (Blank).
10 (n) Evidence of intent to forgo his or her parental
11 rights, whether or not the child is a ward of the court,
12 (1) as manifested by his or her failure for a period of 12
13 months: (i) to visit the child, (ii) to communicate with
14 the child or agency, although able to do so and not
15 prevented from doing so by an agency or by court order, or
16 (iii) to maintain contact with or plan for the future of
17 the child, although physically able to do so, or (2) as
18 manifested by the father's failure, where he and the
19 mother of the child were unmarried to each other at the
20 time of the child's birth, (i) to commence legal
21 proceedings to establish his paternity under the Illinois
22 Parentage Act of 1984, the Illinois Parentage Act of 2015,
23 or the law of the jurisdiction of the child's birth within
24 30 days of being informed, pursuant to Section 12a of this
25 Act, that he is the father or the likely father of the
26 child or, after being so informed where the child is not

SB2435 Enrolled- 2041 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 yet born, within 30 days of the child's birth, or (ii) to
2 make a good faith effort to pay a reasonable amount of the
3 expenses related to the birth of the child and to provide a
4 reasonable amount for the financial support of the child,
5 the court to consider in its determination all relevant
6 circumstances, including the financial condition of both
7 parents; provided that the ground for termination provided
8 in this subparagraph (n)(2)(ii) shall only be available
9 where the petition is brought by the mother or the husband
10 of the mother.
11 Contact or communication by a parent with his or her
12 child that does not demonstrate affection and concern does
13 not constitute reasonable contact and planning under
14 subdivision (n). In the absence of evidence to the
15 contrary, the ability to visit, communicate, maintain
16 contact, pay expenses and plan for the future shall be
17 presumed. The subjective intent of the parent, whether
18 expressed or otherwise, unsupported by evidence of the
19 foregoing parental acts manifesting that intent, shall not
20 preclude a determination that the parent has intended to
21 forgo his or her parental rights. In making this
22 determination, the court may consider but shall not
23 require a showing of diligent efforts by an authorized
24 agency to encourage the parent to perform the acts
25 specified in subdivision (n).
26 It shall be an affirmative defense to any allegation

SB2435 Enrolled- 2042 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 under paragraph (2) of this subsection that the father's
2 failure was due to circumstances beyond his control or to
3 impediments created by the mother or any other person
4 having legal custody. Proof of that fact need only be by a
5 preponderance of the evidence.
6 (o) Repeated or continuous failure by the parents,
7 although physically and financially able, to provide the
8 child with adequate food, clothing, or shelter.
9 (p) Inability to discharge parental responsibilities
10 supported by competent evidence from a psychiatrist,
11 licensed clinical social worker, or clinical psychologist
12 of mental impairment, mental illness or an intellectual
13 disability as defined in Section 1-116 of the Mental
14 Health and Developmental Disabilities Code, or
15 developmental disability as defined in Section 1-106 of
16 that Code, and there is sufficient justification to
17 believe that the inability to discharge parental
18 responsibilities shall extend beyond a reasonable time
19 period. However, this subdivision (p) shall not be
20 construed so as to permit a licensed clinical social
21 worker to conduct any medical diagnosis to determine
22 mental illness or mental impairment.
23 (q) (Blank).
24 (r) The child is in the temporary custody or
25 guardianship of the Department of Children and Family
26 Services, the parent is incarcerated as a result of

SB2435 Enrolled- 2043 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 criminal conviction at the time the petition or motion for
2 termination of parental rights is filed, prior to
3 incarceration the parent had little or no contact with the
4 child or provided little or no support for the child, and
5 the parent's incarceration will prevent the parent from
6 discharging his or her parental responsibilities for the
7 child for a period in excess of 2 years after the filing of
8 the petition or motion for termination of parental rights.
9 (s) The child is in the temporary custody or
10 guardianship of the Department of Children and Family
11 Services, the parent is incarcerated at the time the
12 petition or motion for termination of parental rights is
13 filed, the parent has been repeatedly incarcerated as a
14 result of criminal convictions, and the parent's repeated
15 incarceration has prevented the parent from discharging
16 his or her parental responsibilities for the child.
17 (t) A finding that at birth the child's blood, urine,
18 or meconium contained any amount of a controlled substance
19 as defined in subsection (f) of Section 102 of the
20 Illinois Controlled Substances Act, or a metabolite of a
21 controlled substance, with the exception of controlled
22 substances or metabolites of such substances, the presence
23 of which in the newborn infant was the result of medical
24 treatment administered to the mother or the newborn
25 infant, and that the biological mother of this child is
26 the biological mother of at least one other child who was

4 participate in a clinically appropriate substance abuse

13 settlor of a first trust is considered the owner under
14 Sections 671 through 677 of the Internal Revenue Code or
15 Section 679 of the Internal Revenue Code.

23 Code or the regulations.
24 (b) An exercise of the decanting power is subject to the
25following limitations:

SB2435 Enrolled- 2072 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 (1) If a first trust contains property that qualified,
2 or would have qualified but for provisions of this Article
3 other than this Section, for a marital deduction for
4 purposes of the gift or estate tax under the Internal
5 Revenue Code or a state gift, estate, or inheritance tax,
6 the second-trust instrument must not include or omit any
7 term that, if included in or omitted from the trust
8 instrument for the trust to which the property was
9 transferred, would have prevented the transfer from
10 qualifying for the deduction, or would have reduced the
11 amount of the deduction, under the same provisions of the
12 Internal Revenue Code or state law under which the
13 transfer qualified.
14 (2) If the first trust contains property that
15 qualified, or would have qualified but for provisions of
16 this Article other than this Section, for a charitable
17 deduction for purposes of the income, gift, or estate tax
18 under the Internal Revenue Code or a state income, gift,
19 estate, or inheritance tax, the second-trust instrument
20 must not include or omit any term that, if included in or
21 omitted from the trust instrument for the trust to which
22 the property was transferred, would have prevented the
23 transfer from qualifying for the deduction, or would have
24 reduced the amount of the deduction, under the same
25 provisions of the Internal Revenue Code or state law under
26 which the transfer qualified.

SB2435 Enrolled- 2073 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 (3) If the first trust contains property that
2 qualified, or would have qualified but for provisions of
3 this Article other than this Section, for the exclusion
4 from the gift tax described in Section 2503(b) of the
5 Internal Revenue Code, the second-trust instrument must
6 not include or omit a term that, if included in or omitted
7 from the trust instrument for the trust to which the
8 property was transferred, would have prevented the
9 transfer from qualifying under the same provision of
10 Section 2503 of the Internal Revenue Code. If the first
11 trust contains property that qualified, or would have
12 qualified but for provisions of this Article other than
13 this Section, for the exclusion from the gift tax
14 described in Section 2503(b) of the Internal Revenue Code,
15 by application of Section 2503(c) of the Internal Revenue
16 Code, the second-trust instrument must not include or omit
17 a term that, if included or omitted from the trust
18 instrument for the trust to which the property was
19 transferred, would have prevented the transfer from
20 qualifying under Section 2503(c) of the Internal Revenue
21 Code.
22 (4) If the property of the first trust includes shares
23 of stock in an S corporation, as defined in Section 1361 of
24 the Internal Revenue Code and the first trust is, or but
25 for provisions of this Article other than this Section
26 would be, a permitted shareholder under any provision of

SB2435 Enrolled- 2074 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 Section 1361 of the Internal Revenue Code, an authorized
2 fiduciary may exercise the power with respect to part or
3 all of the S corporation S-corporation stock only if any
4 second trust receiving the stock is a permitted
5 shareholder under Section 1361(c)(2) of the Internal
6 Revenue Code. If the property of the first trust includes
7 shares of stock in an S corporation and the first trust is,
8 or but for provisions of this Article other than this
9 Section, would be, a qualified subchapter S subchapter-S
10 trust within the meaning of Section 1361(d) of the
11 Internal Revenue Code, the second-trust instrument must
12 not include or omit a term that prevents the second trust
13 from qualifying as a qualified subchapter S subchapter-S
14 trust.
15 (5) If the first trust contains property that
16 qualified, or would have qualified but for provisions of
17 this Article other than this Section, for a zero inclusion
18 ratio for purposes of the generation-skipping transfer tax
19 under Section 2642(c) of the Internal Revenue Code the
20 second-trust instrument must not include or omit a term
21 that, if included in or omitted from the first-trust
22 instrument, would have prevented the transfer to the first
23 trust from qualifying for a zero inclusion ratio under
24 Section 2642(a) of the Internal Revenue Code.
25 (6) If the first trust is directly or indirectly the
26 beneficiary of qualified benefits property, the

SB2435 Enrolled- 2075 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 second-trust instrument may not include or omit any term
2 that, if included in or omitted from the first-trust
3 instrument, would have increased the minimum distributions
4 required with respect to the qualified benefits property
5 under Section 401(a)(9) of the Internal Revenue Code and
6 any applicable regulations, or any similar requirements
7 that refer to Section 401(a)(9) of the Internal Revenue
8 Code or the regulations. If an attempted exercise of the
9 decanting power violates the preceding sentence, the
10 trustee is deemed to have held the qualified benefits
11 property and any reinvested distributions of the property
12 as a separate share from the date of the exercise of the
13 power and Section 1222 applies to the separate share.
14 (7) If the first trust qualifies as a grantor trust
15 because of the application of Section 672(f)(2)(A) of the
16 Internal Revenue Code the second trust may not include or
17 omit a term that, if included in or omitted from the
18 first-trust instrument, would have prevented the first
19 trust from qualifying under Section 672(f)(2)(A) of the
20 Internal Revenue Code.
21 (8) In this paragraph (8), "tax benefit" means a
22 federal or state tax deduction, exemption, exclusion, or
23 other benefit not otherwise listed in this Section, except
24 for a benefit arising from being a grantor trust. Subject
25 to paragraph (9) of this subsection (b), a second-trust
26 instrument may not include or omit a term that, if

SB2435 Enrolled- 2076 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 included in or omitted from the first-trust instrument,
2 would have prevented qualification for a tax benefit if:
3 (A) the first-trust instrument expressly indicates
4 an intent to qualify for the benefit or the
5 first-trust instrument clearly is designed to enable
6 the first trust to qualify for the benefit; and
7 (B) the transfer of property held by the first
8 trust or the first trust qualified, or but for
9 provisions of this Article other than this Section,
10 would have qualified for the tax benefit.
11 (9) Subject to paragraph (4) of this subsection (b):
12 (A) except as otherwise provided in paragraph (7)
13 of this subsection (b), the second trust may be a
14 nongrantor trust, even if the first trust is a grantor
15 trust; and
16 (B) except as otherwise provided in paragraph (10)
17 of this subsection (b), the second trust may be a
18 grantor trust, even if the first trust is a nongrantor
19 trust.
20 (10) An authorized fiduciary may not exercise the
21 decanting power if a settlor objects in a signed record
22 delivered to the fiduciary within the notice period and:
23 (A) the first trust and second trusts are both
24 grantor trusts, in whole or in part, the first trust
25 grants the settlor or another person the power to
26 cause the second trust to cease to be a grantor trust,

SB2435 Enrolled- 2077 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 and the second trust does not grant an equivalent
2 power to the settlor or other person; or
3 (B) the first trust is a nongrantor trust and the
4 second trust is a grantor trust, in whole or in part,
5 with respect to the settlor, unless:
6 (i) the settlor has the power at all times to
7 cause the second trust to cease to be a grantor
8 trust; or
9 (ii) the first-trust instrument contains a
10 provision granting the settlor or another person a
11 power that would cause the first trust to cease to
12 be a grantor trust and the second-trust instrument
13 contains the same provision.

17 taking of depositions in civil cases in circuit courts.
18 (4) Upon reasonable notice to the complainant and the
19 respondent, the Department shall conduct a fact finding

19arising from the same incident of unlawful discrimination or
20harassment.
21 (D) Report.
22 (1) Each charge investigated under subsection (C)
23 shall be the subject of a report to the Director. The

2 (2) Upon review of the report, the Director shall
3 determine whether there is substantial evidence that the
4 alleged civil rights violation has been committed. The
5 determination of substantial evidence is limited to
6 determining the need for further consideration of the
7 charge pursuant to this Act and includes, but is not
8 limited to, findings of fact and conclusions, as well as
9 the reasons for the determinations on all material issues.

11 accepts as sufficient to support a particular conclusion
12 and which consists of more than a mere scintilla but may be
13 somewhat less than a preponderance.
14 (3) If the Director determines that there is no
15 substantial evidence, the charge shall be dismissed by
16 order of the Director and the Director shall give the
17 complainant notice of his or her right to seek review of

6 Director shall also notify the parties that the
7 complainant has the right to either commence a civil
8 action in the appropriate circuit court or request that
9 the Department of Human Rights file a complaint with the
10 Human Rights Commission on his or her behalf. Any such
11 complaint shall be filed within 90 days after receipt of
12 the Director's notice. If the complainant chooses to have
13 the Department file a complaint with the Human Rights
14 Commission on his or her behalf, the complainant must,
15 within 30 days after receipt of the Director's notice,
16 request in writing that the Department file the complaint.
17 If the complainant timely requests that the Department
18 file the complaint, the Department shall file the
19 complaint on his or her behalf. If the complainant fails
20 to timely request that the Department file the complaint,
21 the complainant may file his or her complaint with the
22 Commission or commence a civil action in the appropriate
23 circuit court. If the complainant files a complaint with
24 the Human Rights Commission, the complainant shall give
25 notice to the Department of the filing of the complaint

19 respondent agree in writing that such disclosure be made.
20 (5) The Department's efforts to conciliate the matter
21 shall not stay or extend the time for filing the complaint
22 with the Commission or the circuit court.
23 (F) Complaint.
24 (1) When the complainant requests that the Department
25 file a complaint with the Commission on his or her behalf,
26 the Department shall prepare a written complaint, under

SB2435 Enrolled- 2110 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b

2 rights violation substantially as alleged in the charge
3 previously filed and the relief sought on behalf of the
4 aggrieved party. The Department shall file the complaint
5 with the Commission.
6 (2) If the complainant chooses to commence a civil
7 action in a circuit court, he or she must do so in the
8 circuit court in the county wherein the civil rights
9 violation was allegedly committed. The form of the
10 complaint in any such civil action shall be in accordance
11 with the Illinois Code of Civil Procedure.
12 (G) Time Limit.
13 (1) When a charge of a civil rights violation has been
14 properly filed, the Department, within 365 days thereof or
15 within any extension of that period agreed to in writing
16 by all parties, shall issue its report as required by
17 subparagraph (D). Any such report shall be duly served
18 upon both the complainant and the respondent.
19 (2) If the Department has not issued its report within
20 365 days after the charge is filed, or any such longer
21 period agreed to in writing by all the parties, the
22 complainant shall have 90 days to either file his or her
23 own complaint with the Human Rights Commission or commence
24 a civil action in the appropriate circuit court. If the
25 complainant files a complaint with the Commission, the
26 form of the complaint shall be in accordance with the

SB2435 Enrolled- 2111 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b

4 Code of Civil Procedure. The aggrieved party shall notify
5 the Department that a complaint has been filed and shall
6 serve a copy of the complaint on the Department on the same
7 date that the complaint is filed with the Commission or in
8 circuit court. If the complainant files a complaint with
9 the Commission, he or she may not later commence a civil
10 action in circuit court.
11 (3) If an aggrieved party files a complaint with the
12 Human Rights Commission or commences a civil action in
13 circuit court pursuant to paragraph (2) of this
14 subsection, or if the time period for filing a complaint
15 has expired, the Department shall immediately cease its
16 investigation and dismiss the charge of civil rights
17 violation. Any final order entered by the Commission under
18 this Section is appealable in accordance with paragraph
19 (B)(1) of Section 8-111. Failure to immediately cease an
20 investigation and dismiss the charge of civil rights
21 violation as provided in this paragraph (3) constitutes
22 grounds for entry of an order by the circuit court
23 permanently enjoining the investigation. The Department
24 may also be liable for any costs and other damages
25 incurred by the respondent as a result of the action of the
26 Department.

3 (e) Investment credit. A taxpayer shall be allowed a
4credit against the Personal Property Tax Replacement Income

8 during the taxable year, provided such property is placed
9 in service on or after July 1, 1984. There shall be allowed
10 an additional credit equal to .5% of the basis of
11 qualified property placed in service during the taxable
12 year, provided such property is placed in service on or
13 after July 1, 1986, and the taxpayer's base employment
14 within Illinois has increased by 1% or more over the
15 preceding year as determined by the taxpayer's employment
16 records filed with the Illinois Department of Employment
17 Security. Taxpayers who are new to Illinois shall be
18 deemed to have met the 1% growth in base employment for the
19 first year in which they file employment records with the
20 Illinois Department of Employment Security. The provisions
21 added to this Section by Public Act 85-1200 (and restored
22 by Public Act 87-895) shall be construed as declaratory of
23 existing law and not as a new enactment. If, in any year,

25 preceding year is less than 1%, the additional credit
26 shall be limited to that percentage times a fraction, the

SB2435 Enrolled- 2162 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 numerator of which is .5% and the denominator of which is
2 1%, but shall not exceed .5%. The investment credit shall
3 not be allowed to the extent that it would reduce a
4 taxpayer's liability in any tax year below zero, nor may
5 any credit for qualified property be allowed for any year
6 other than the year in which the property was placed in
7 service in Illinois. For tax years ending on or after
8 December 31, 1987, and on or before December 31, 1988, the
9 credit shall be allowed for the tax year in which the
10 property is placed in service, or, if the amount of the
11 credit exceeds the tax liability for that year, whether it
12 exceeds the original liability or the liability as later
13 amended, such excess may be carried forward and applied to
14 the tax liability of the 5 taxable years following the
15 excess credit years if the taxpayer (i) makes investments
16 which cause the creation of a minimum of 2,000 full-time
17 equivalent jobs in Illinois, (ii) is located in an
18 enterprise zone established pursuant to the Illinois
19 Enterprise Zone Act and (iii) is certified by the
20 Department of Commerce and Community Affairs (now
21 Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity) as
22 complying with the requirements specified in clause (i)
23 and (ii) by July 1, 1986. The Department of Commerce and
24 Community Affairs (now Department of Commerce and Economic
25 Opportunity) shall notify the Department of Revenue of all
26 such certifications immediately. For tax years ending

SB2435 Enrolled- 2163 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 after December 31, 1988, the credit shall be allowed for
2 the tax year in which the property is placed in service,
3 or, if the amount of the credit exceeds the tax liability
4 for that year, whether it exceeds the original liability
5 or the liability as later amended, such excess may be
6 carried forward and applied to the tax liability of the 5
7 taxable years following the excess credit years. The
8 credit shall be applied to the earliest year for which
9 there is a liability. If there is credit from more than one
10 tax year that is available to offset a liability, earlier
11 credit shall be applied first.

13 which:
14 (A) is tangible, whether new or used, including

25 (e);
26 (C) is acquired by purchase as defined in Section

12 (3) For purposes of this subsection (e),
13 "manufacturing" means the material staging and production
14 of tangible personal property by procedures commonly

4 distribution of electricity.
5 (4) The basis of qualified property shall be the basis
6 used to compute the depreciation deduction for federal
7 income tax purposes.
8 (5) If the basis of the property for federal income

11 of such increase shall be deemed property placed in
12 service on the date of such increase in basis.
13 (6) The term "placed in service" shall have the same
14 meaning as under Section 46 of the Internal Revenue Code.
15 (7) If during any taxable year, any property ceases to
16 be qualified property in the hands of the taxpayer within

18 any qualified property is moved outside Illinois within 48
19 months after being placed in service, the Personal
20 Property Tax Replacement Income Tax for such taxable year
21 shall be increased. Such increase shall be determined by
22 (i) recomputing the investment credit which would have
23 been allowed for the year in which credit for such
24 property was originally allowed by eliminating such
25 property from such computation and, (ii) subtracting such
26 recomputed credit from the amount of credit previously

SB2435 Enrolled- 2166 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 allowed. For the purposes of this paragraph (7), a
2 reduction of the basis of qualified property resulting
3 from a redetermination of the purchase price shall be
4 deemed a disposition of qualified property to the extent
5 of such reduction.
6 (8) Unless the investment credit is extended by law,
7 the basis of qualified property shall not include costs
8 incurred after December 31, 2018, except for costs
9 incurred pursuant to a binding contract entered into on or
10 before December 31, 2018.

13 the credits to which the partnership is entitled under
14 this subsection (e) for the taxable year. A partner may
15 use the credit allocated to him or her under this
16 paragraph only against the tax imposed in subsections (c)
17 and (d) of this Section. If the partnership makes that
18 election, those credits shall be allocated among the
19 partners in the partnership in accordance with the rules
20 set forth in Section 704(b) of the Internal Revenue Code,
21 and the rules promulgated under that Section, and the
22 allocated amount of the credits shall be allowed to the

24 this election on its Personal Property Tax Replacement
25 Income Tax return for that taxable year. The election to
26 pass through the credits shall be irrevocable.

7 basis for such property. The credit shall be available
8 only in the taxable year in which the property is placed in
9 service in the Enterprise Zone or River Edge Redevelopment
10 Zone and shall not be allowed to the extent that it would

15 (3) The basis of qualified property shall be the basis
16 used to compute the depreciation deduction for federal
17 income tax purposes.
18 (4) If the basis of the property for federal income
19 tax depreciation purposes is increased after it has been
20 placed in service in the Enterprise Zone or River Edge
21 Redevelopment Zone by the taxpayer, the amount of such

9 been allowed for the year in which credit for such
10 property was originally allowed by eliminating such
11 property from such computation, and (ii) subtracting such
12 recomputed credit from the amount of credit previously
13 allowed. For the purposes of this paragraph (6), a
14 reduction of the basis of qualified property resulting
15 from a redetermination of the purchase price shall be
16 deemed a disposition of qualified property to the extent
17 of such reduction.
18 (7) There shall be allowed an additional credit equal
19 to 0.5% of the basis of qualified property placed in
20 service during the taxable year in a River Edge

18 be carried forward and applied against the taxpayer's
19 liability in succeeding calendar years in the same manner
20 provided under paragraph (4) of Section 211 of this Act.
21 The credit or credits shall be applied to the earliest

10 months after being placed in service, the tax imposed
11 under subsections (a) and (b) of this Section for such

13 determined by (i) recomputing the investment credit which
14 would have been allowed for the year in which credit for
15 such property was originally allowed by eliminating such
16 property from such computation, and (ii) subtracting such
17 recomputed credit from the amount of credit previously
18 allowed. For the purposes of this paragraph (6), a
19 reduction of the basis of qualified property resulting

16credits exceeds the taxpayer's liability, the excess may be
17carried forward and applied against the taxpayer's liability
18in succeeding calendar years in the manner provided under
19paragraph (4) of Section 211 of this Act. The credit or credits
20shall be applied to the earliest year for which there is a tax
21liability. If there are credits from more than one taxable
22year that are available to offset a liability, the earlier
23credit shall be applied first.

17multiplying the tax imposed by subsections (c) and (d) of this
18Section by a fraction, the numerator of which is base income
19allocable to Illinois and the denominator of which is Illinois
20base income, and further multiplying the product by the tax

22 Any credit earned on or after December 31, 1986 under this
23subsection which is unused in the year the credit is computed

12Section for which a taxpayer has claimed a credit under this
13subsection (i) is reduced, the amount of credit for such tax

18taxable year, an amended return shall be filed for such
19taxable year to reduce the amount of credit claimed.

16is first computed until it is used. This credit shall be
17applied first to the earliest year for which there is a
18liability. If there is a credit under this subsection from
19more than one tax year that is available to offset a liability,
20the earliest credit arising under this subsection shall be
21applied first. No carryforward credit may be claimed in any
22tax year ending on or after December 31, 2003.

2year may be carried forward. A taxpayer may elect to have the
3unused credit shown on its final completed return carried over
4as a credit against the tax liability for the following 5
5taxable years or until it has been fully used, whichever
6occurs first; provided that no credit earned in a tax year
7ending prior to December 31, 2003 may be carried forward to any
8year ending on or after December 31, 2003.
9 If an unused credit is carried forward to a given year from
102 or more earlier years, that credit arising in the earliest
11year will be applied first against the tax liability for the
12given year. If a tax liability for the given year still
13remains, the credit from the next earliest year will then be
14applied, and so on, until all credits have been used or no tax
15liability for the given year remains. Any remaining unused
16credit or credits then will be carried forward to the next
17following year in which a tax liability is incurred, except
18that no credit can be carried forward to a year which is more
19than 5 years after the year in which the expense for which the
20credit is given was incurred.

10 This credit shall be applied first to the earliest year
11 for which there is a liability. If there is a credit under
12 this subsection from more than one tax year that is
13 available to offset a liability, the earliest credit
14 arising under this subsection shall be applied first. A
15 credit allowed under this subsection may be sold to a
16 buyer as part of a sale of all or part of the remediation
17 site for which the credit was granted. The purchaser of a
18 remediation site and the tax credit shall succeed to the

13partnership, trust or a Subchapter S corporation shall be an
14additional amount equal to 1.5% of such taxpayer's net income

22under paragraph (2) of subsection (b) of Section 304, except
23that for purposes of this determination premiums from

SB2435 Enrolled- 2199 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1imposed by subsections (b) and (d) shall be reduced (but not
2increased) to the rate at which the total amount of tax imposed
3under this Act, net of all credits allowed under this Act,
4shall equal (i) the total amount of tax that would be imposed
5on the foreign insurer's net income allocable to Illinois for
6the taxable year by such foreign insurer's state or country of
7domicile if that net income were subject to all income taxes
8and taxes measured by net income imposed by such foreign
9insurer's state or country of domicile, net of all credits
10allowed or (ii) a rate of zero if no such tax is imposed on
11such income by the foreign insurer's state of domicile. For
12the purposes of this subsection (d-1), an inter-affiliate
13includes a mutual insurer under common management.
14 (1) For the purposes of subsection (d-1), in no event
15 shall the sum of the rates of tax imposed by subsections

17 (A) the total amount of tax imposed on such
18 foreign insurer under this Act for a taxable year, net
19 of all credits allowed under this Act, plus
20 (B) the privilege tax imposed by Section 409 of

10 by subsection (a) net of all credits allowed under this
11 Section other than the credit allowed under subsection (i)
12 has been reduced to zero, against the rates imposed by
13 subsection (d).
14 This subsection (d-1) is exempt from the provisions of

16 (e) Investment credit. A taxpayer shall be allowed a
17credit against the Personal Property Tax Replacement Income
18Tax for investment in qualified property.

20 of the basis of qualified property placed in service
21 during the taxable year, provided such property is placed
22 in service on or after July 1, 1984. There shall be allowed
23 an additional credit equal to .5% of the basis of
24 qualified property placed in service during the taxable
25 year, provided such property is placed in service on or
26 after July 1, 1986, and the taxpayer's base employment

SB2435 Enrolled- 2201 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 within Illinois has increased by 1% or more over the
2 preceding year as determined by the taxpayer's employment
3 records filed with the Illinois Department of Employment
4 Security. Taxpayers who are new to Illinois shall be
5 deemed to have met the 1% growth in base employment for the
6 first year in which they file employment records with the
7 Illinois Department of Employment Security. The provisions
8 added to this Section by Public Act 85-1200 (and restored
9 by Public Act 87-895) shall be construed as declaratory of
10 existing law and not as a new enactment. If, in any year,
11 the increase in base employment within Illinois over the
12 preceding year is less than 1%, the additional credit
13 shall be limited to that percentage times a fraction, the
14 numerator of which is .5% and the denominator of which is
15 1%, but shall not exceed .5%. The investment credit shall
16 not be allowed to the extent that it would reduce a
17 taxpayer's liability in any tax year below zero, nor may
18 any credit for qualified property be allowed for any year
19 other than the year in which the property was placed in
20 service in Illinois. For tax years ending on or after
21 December 31, 1987, and on or before December 31, 1988, the
22 credit shall be allowed for the tax year in which the
23 property is placed in service, or, if the amount of the
24 credit exceeds the tax liability for that year, whether it
25 exceeds the original liability or the liability as later
26 amended, such excess may be carried forward and applied to

SB2435 Enrolled- 2202 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b

2 excess credit years if the taxpayer (i) makes investments
3 which cause the creation of a minimum of 2,000 full-time
4 equivalent jobs in Illinois, (ii) is located in an
5 enterprise zone established pursuant to the Illinois
6 Enterprise Zone Act and (iii) is certified by the
7 Department of Commerce and Community Affairs (now
8 Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity) as
9 complying with the requirements specified in clause (i)
10 and (ii) by July 1, 1986. The Department of Commerce and
11 Community Affairs (now Department of Commerce and Economic
12 Opportunity) shall notify the Department of Revenue of all
13 such certifications immediately. For tax years ending
14 after December 31, 1988, the credit shall be allowed for
15 the tax year in which the property is placed in service,
16 or, if the amount of the credit exceeds the tax liability
17 for that year, whether it exceeds the original liability
18 or the liability as later amended, such excess may be
19 carried forward and applied to the tax liability of the 5
20 taxable years following the excess credit years. The
21 credit shall be applied to the earliest year for which
22 there is a liability. If there is credit from more than one
23 tax year that is available to offset a liability, earlier
24 credit shall be applied first.
25 (2) The term "qualified property" means property
26 which:

SB2435 Enrolled- 2203 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 (A) is tangible, whether new or used, including
2 buildings and structural components of buildings and
3 signs that are real property, but not including land
4 or improvements to real property that are not a
5 structural component of a building such as
6 landscaping, sewer lines, local access roads, fencing,
7 parking lots, and other appurtenances;
8 (B) is depreciable pursuant to Section 167 of the
9 Internal Revenue Code, except that "3-year property"
10 as defined in Section 168(c)(2)(A) of that Code is not
11 eligible for the credit provided by this subsection
12 (e);
13 (C) is acquired by purchase as defined in Section
14 179(d) of the Internal Revenue Code;
15 (D) is used in Illinois by a taxpayer who is
16 primarily engaged in manufacturing, or in mining coal
17 or fluorite, or in retailing, or was placed in service
18 on or after July 1, 2006 in a River Edge Redevelopment
19 Zone established pursuant to the River Edge
20 Redevelopment Zone Act; and
21 (E) has not previously been used in Illinois in
22 such a manner and by such a person as would qualify for
23 the credit provided by this subsection (e) or
24 subsection (f).
25 (3) For purposes of this subsection (e),
26 "manufacturing" means the material staging and production

SB2435 Enrolled- 2204 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b

3 assembling which changes some existing material into new
4 shapes, new qualities, or new combinations. For purposes

6 same meaning as the term "mining" in Section 613(c) of the
7 Internal Revenue Code. For purposes of this subsection
8 (e), the term "retailing" means the sale of tangible
9 personal property for use or consumption and not for
10 resale, or services rendered in conjunction with the sale
11 of tangible personal property for use or consumption and
12 not for resale. For purposes of this subsection (e),
13 "tangible personal property" has the same meaning as when
14 that term is used in the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act,
15 and, for taxable years ending after December 31, 2008,
16 does not include the generation, transmission, or
17 distribution of electricity.
18 (4) The basis of qualified property shall be the basis
19 used to compute the depreciation deduction for federal
20 income tax purposes.
21 (5) If the basis of the property for federal income
22 tax depreciation purposes is increased after it has been
23 placed in service in Illinois by the taxpayer, the amount
24 of such increase shall be deemed property placed in
25 service on the date of such increase in basis.
26 (6) The term "placed in service" shall have the same

SB2435 Enrolled- 2205 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 meaning as under Section 46 of the Internal Revenue Code.
2 (7) If during any taxable year, any property ceases to
3 be qualified property in the hands of the taxpayer within
4 48 months after being placed in service, or the situs of
5 any qualified property is moved outside Illinois within 48
6 months after being placed in service, the Personal
7 Property Tax Replacement Income Tax for such taxable year
8 shall be increased. Such increase shall be determined by
9 (i) recomputing the investment credit which would have
10 been allowed for the year in which credit for such
11 property was originally allowed by eliminating such
12 property from such computation and, (ii) subtracting such
13 recomputed credit from the amount of credit previously
14 allowed. For the purposes of this paragraph (7), a
15 reduction of the basis of qualified property resulting
16 from a redetermination of the purchase price shall be
17 deemed a disposition of qualified property to the extent
18 of such reduction.
19 (8) Unless the investment credit is extended by law,
20 the basis of qualified property shall not include costs
21 incurred after December 31, 2018, except for costs
22 incurred pursuant to a binding contract entered into on or
23 before December 31, 2018.
24 (9) Each taxable year ending before December 31, 2000,
25 a partnership may elect to pass through to its partners
26 the credits to which the partnership is entitled under

SB2435 Enrolled- 2206 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 this subsection (e) for the taxable year. A partner may
2 use the credit allocated to him or her under this
3 paragraph only against the tax imposed in subsections (c)
4 and (d) of this Section. If the partnership makes that
5 election, those credits shall be allocated among the
6 partners in the partnership in accordance with the rules
7 set forth in Section 704(b) of the Internal Revenue Code,
8 and the rules promulgated under that Section, and the
9 allocated amount of the credits shall be allowed to the
10 partners for that taxable year. The partnership shall make
11 this election on its Personal Property Tax Replacement
12 Income Tax return for that taxable year. The election to
13 pass through the credits shall be irrevocable.
14 For taxable years ending on or after December 31,
15 2000, a partner that qualifies its partnership for a
16 subtraction under subparagraph (I) of paragraph (2) of
17 subsection (d) of Section 203 or a shareholder that
18 qualifies a Subchapter S corporation for a subtraction
19 under subparagraph (S) of paragraph (2) of subsection (b)
20 of Section 203 shall be allowed a credit under this
21 subsection (e) equal to its share of the credit earned
22 under this subsection (e) during the taxable year by the
23 partnership or Subchapter S corporation, determined in
24 accordance with the determination of income and
25 distributive share of income under Sections 702 and 704
26 and Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code. This

9 service on or after July 1, 2006, a River Edge
10 Redevelopment Zone established pursuant to the River Edge
11 Redevelopment Zone Act. For partners, shareholders of
12 Subchapter S corporations, and owners of limited liability
13 companies, if the liability company is treated as a
14 partnership for purposes of federal and State income
15 taxation, there shall be allowed a credit under this
16 subsection (f) to be determined in accordance with the
17 determination of income and distributive share of income
18 under Sections 702 and 704 and Subchapter S of the
19 Internal Revenue Code. The credit shall be .5% of the
20 basis for such property. The credit shall be available
21 only in the taxable year in which the property is placed in
22 service in the Enterprise Zone or River Edge Redevelopment
23 Zone and shall not be allowed to the extent that it would
24 reduce a taxpayer's liability for the tax imposed by
25 subsections (a) and (b) of this Section to below zero. For
26 tax years ending on or after December 31, 1985, the credit

SB2435 Enrolled- 2208 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 shall be allowed for the tax year in which the property is
2 placed in service, or, if the amount of the credit exceeds
3 the tax liability for that year, whether it exceeds the
4 original liability or the liability as later amended, such
5 excess may be carried forward and applied to the tax
6 liability of the 5 taxable years following the excess
7 credit year. The credit shall be applied to the earliest

1 subsection (e).
2 (3) The basis of qualified property shall be the basis

21 by (i) recomputing the investment credit which would have
22 been allowed for the year in which credit for such

10 employment within Illinois has increased by 1% or more
11 over the preceding year as determined by the taxpayer's
12 employment records filed with the Illinois Department of
13 Employment Security. Taxpayers who are new to Illinois
14 shall be deemed to have met the 1% growth in base
15 employment for the first year in which they file
16 employment records with the Illinois Department of
17 Employment Security. If, in any year, the increase in base
18 employment within Illinois over the preceding year is less
19 than 1%, the additional credit shall be limited to that
20 percentage times a fraction, the numerator of which is
21 0.5% and the denominator of which is 1%, but shall not
22 exceed 0.5%.
23 (8) For taxable years beginning on or after January 1,

4 credits exceeds the taxpayer's liability, the excess may
5 be carried forward and applied against the taxpayer's
6 liability in succeeding calendar years in the same manner
7 provided under paragraph (4) of Section 211 of this Act.
8 The credit or credits shall be applied to the earliest
9 year for which there is a tax liability. If there are
10 credits from more than one taxable year that are available
11 to offset a liability, the earlier credit shall be applied
12 first.
13 For partners, shareholders of Subchapter S
14 corporations, and owners of limited liability companies,
15 if the liability company is treated as a partnership for
16 the purposes of federal and State income taxation, there

8 the tax liability for that year, whether it exceeds the
9 original liability or the liability as later amended, such
10 excess may be carried forward and applied to the tax
11 liability of the 5 taxable years following the excess

10 (4) If the basis of the property for federal income
11 tax depreciation purposes is increased after it has been

22 qualified property is moved outside Illinois within 48
23 months after being placed in service, the tax imposed
24 under subsections (a) and (b) of this Section for such

1 would have been allowed for the year in which credit for
2 such property was originally allowed by eliminating such

8 deemed a disposition of qualified property to the extent
9 of such reduction.

2means the qualifying expenditures as defined for the federal
3credit for increasing research activities which would be
4allowable under Section 41 of the Internal Revenue Code and
5which are conducted in this State, "qualifying expenditures
6for increasing research activities in this State" means the
7excess of qualifying expenditures for the taxable year in
8which incurred over qualifying expenditures for the base
9period, "qualifying expenditures for the base period" means
10the average of the qualifying expenditures for each year in
11the base period, and "base period" means the 3 taxable years
12immediately preceding the taxable year for which the
13determination is being made.
14 Any credit in excess of the tax liability for the taxable
15year may be carried forward. A taxpayer may elect to have the
16unused credit shown on its final completed return carried over
17as a credit against the tax liability for the following 5
18taxable years or until it has been fully used, whichever
19occurs first; provided that no credit earned in a tax year
20ending prior to December 31, 2003 may be carried forward to any
21year ending on or after December 31, 2003.
22 If an unused credit is carried forward to a given year from
232 or more earlier years, that credit arising in the earliest
24year will be applied first against the tax liability for the
25given year. If a tax liability for the given year still
26remains, the credit from the next earliest year will then be

SB2435 Enrolled- 2221 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1applied, and so on, until all credits have been used or no tax
2liability for the given year remains. Any remaining unused
3credit or credits then will be carried forward to the next
4following year in which a tax liability is incurred, except
5that no credit can be carried forward to a year which is more
6than 5 years after the year in which the expense for which the
7credit is given was incurred.
8 No inference shall be drawn from Public Act 91-644 this
9amendatory Act of the 91st General Assembly in construing this
10Section for taxable years beginning before January 1, 1999.

6 Letter was issued by the Agency and recorded under Section
7 58.10 of the Environmental Protection Act. The credit must
8 be claimed for the taxable year in which Agency approval
9 of the eligible remediation costs is granted. The credit
10 is not available to any taxpayer if the taxpayer or any
11 related party caused or contributed to, in any material
12 respect, a release of regulated substances on, in, or
13 under the site that was identified and addressed by the
14 remedial action pursuant to the Site Remediation Program
15 of the Environmental Protection Act. After the Pollution

7 Department of Commerce and Community Affairs (now
8 Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity). The
9 total credit allowed shall not exceed $40,000 per year
10 with a maximum total of $150,000 per site. For partners
11 and shareholders of subchapter S corporations, there shall
12 be allowed a credit under this subsection to be determined
13 in accordance with the determination of income and
14 distributive share of income under Sections 702 and 704
15 and subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code.
16 (ii) A credit allowed under this subsection that is
17 unused in the year the credit is earned may be carried
18 forward to each of the 5 taxable years following the year
19 for which the credit is first earned until it is used. The
20 term "unused credit" does not include any amounts of
21 unreimbursed eligible remediation costs in excess of the
22 maximum credit per site authorized under paragraph (i).
23 This credit shall be applied first to the earliest year
24 for which there is a liability. If there is a credit under

4 site for which the credit was granted. The purchaser of a
5 remediation site and the tax credit shall succeed to the
6 unused credit and remaining carry-forward period of the
7 seller. To perfect the transfer, the assignor shall record
8 the transfer in the chain of title for the site and provide
9 written notice to the Director of the Illinois Department
10 of Revenue of the assignor's intent to sell the
11 remediation site and the amount of the tax credit to be
12 transferred as a portion of the sale. In no event may a
13 credit be transferred to any taxpayer if the taxpayer or a
14 related party would not be eligible under the provisions
15 of subsection (i).
16 (iii) For purposes of this Section, the term "site"
17 shall have the same meaning as under Section 58.2 of the
18 Environmental Protection Act.

2years ending prior to December 31, 2017, and (ii) $750 for tax
3years ending on or after December 31, 2017. In no event shall a

14 party" includes the persons disallowed a deduction for
15 losses by paragraphs (b), (c), and (f)(1) of Section 267
16 of the Internal Revenue Code by virtue of being a related
17 taxpayer, as well as any of its partners. The credit
18 allowed against the tax imposed by subsections (a) and (b)
19 shall be equal to 25% of the unreimbursed eligible
20 remediation costs in excess of $100,000 per site.
21 (ii) A credit allowed under this subsection that is
22 unused in the year the credit is earned may be carried
23 forward to each of the 5 taxable years following the year
24 for which the credit is first earned until it is used. This
25 credit shall be applied first to the earliest year for
26 which there is a liability. If there is a credit under this

SB2435 Enrolled- 2228 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 subsection from more than one tax year that is available
2 to offset a liability, the earliest credit arising under
3 this subsection shall be applied first. A credit allowed
4 under this subsection may be sold to a buyer as part of a
5 sale of all or part of the remediation site for which the
6 credit was granted. The purchaser of a remediation site
7 and the tax credit shall succeed to the unused credit and
8 remaining carry-forward period of the seller. To perfect
9 the transfer, the assignor shall record the transfer in
10 the chain of title for the site and provide written notice
11 to the Director of the Illinois Department of Revenue of
12 the assignor's intent to sell the remediation site and the
13 amount of the tax credit to be transferred as a portion of
14 the sale. In no event may a credit be transferred to any
15 taxpayer if the taxpayer or a related party would not be
16 eligible under the provisions of subsection (i).
17 (iii) For purposes of this Section, the term "site"
18 shall have the same meaning as under Section 58.2 of the
19 Environmental Protection Act.
20 (o) For each of taxable years during the Compassionate Use
21of Medical Cannabis Program, a surcharge is imposed on all
22taxpayers on income arising from the sale or exchange of
23capital assets, depreciable business property, real property
24used in the trade or business, and Section 197 intangibles of
25an organization registrant under the Compassionate Use of
26Medical Cannabis Program Act. The amount of the surcharge is

1equal to the amount of federal income tax liability for the
2taxable year attributable to those sales and exchanges. The

2 another person where both persons were initial owners
3 of the registration when the registration was issued;
4 or
5 (2) the cannabis cultivation center registration,
6 medical cannabis dispensary registration, or the
7 controlling interest in a registrant's property is
8 transferred in a transaction to lineal descendants in

1 another person's tax return under this Act.
2 Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (1), a
3nonresident (other than, for taxable years ending on or after
4December 31, 2011, a nonresident required to withhold tax
5under Section 709.5) whose Illinois income tax liability under

13 return or notice required of such individual under this
14 Act shall be made by his executor, administrator, or other
15 person charged with the property of such decedent.

8 and form as corporations are required to make such returns
9 and notices.
10 (c) Joint returns by husband and wife.
11 (1) Except as provided in paragraph (3):
12 (A) if a husband and wife file a joint federal
13 income tax return for a taxable year ending before
14 December 31, 2009, they shall file a joint return
15 under this Act for such taxable year and their
16 liabilities shall be joint and several;
17 (B) if a husband and wife file a joint federal
18 income tax return for a taxable year ending on or after
19 December 31, 2009, they may elect to file separate
20 returns under this Act for such taxable year. The
21 election under this paragraph must be made on or
22 before the due date (including extensions) of the
23 return and, once made, shall be irrevocable. If no
24 election is timely made under this paragraph for a
25 taxable year:
26 (i) the couple must file a joint return under

SB2435 Enrolled- 2235 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 this Act for such taxable year,
2 (ii) their liabilities shall be joint and
3 several, and
4 (iii) any overpayment for that taxable year
5 may be withheld under Section 909 of this Act or
6 under Section 2505-275 of the Civil Administrative
7 Code of Illinois and applied against a debt of
8 either spouse without regard to the amount of the
9 overpayment attributable to the other spouse; and
10 (C) if the federal income tax liability of either
11 spouse is determined on a separate federal income tax
12 return, they shall file separate returns under this
13 Act.
14 (2) If neither spouse is required to file a federal
15 income tax return and either or both are required to file a
16 return under this Act, they may elect to file separate or
17 joint returns and pursuant to such election their
18 liabilities shall be separate or joint and several.
19 (3) If either husband or wife is a resident and the
20 other is a nonresident, they shall file separate returns
21 in this State on such forms as may be required by the
22 Department in which event their tax liabilities shall be
23 separate; but if they file a joint federal income tax
24 return for a taxable year, they may elect to determine
25 their joint net income and file a joint return for that
26 taxable year under the provisions of paragraph (1) of this

SB2435 Enrolled- 2236 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 subsection as if both were residents and in such case,
2 their liabilities shall be joint and several.
3 (4) Innocent spouses.
4 (A) However, for tax liabilities arising and paid
5 prior to August 13, 1999, an innocent spouse shall be
6 relieved of liability for tax (including interest and
7 penalties) for any taxable year for which a joint
8 return has been made, upon submission of proof that
9 the Internal Revenue Service has made a determination
10 under Section 6013(e) of the Internal Revenue Code,
11 for the same taxable year, which determination
12 relieved the spouse from liability for federal income
13 taxes. If there is no federal income tax liability at
14 issue for the same taxable year, the Department shall
15 rely on the provisions of Section 6013(e) to determine
16 whether the person requesting innocent spouse
17 abatement of tax, penalty, and interest is entitled to
18 that relief.
19 (B) For tax liabilities arising on and after
20 August 13, 1999 or which arose prior to that date, but
21 remain unpaid as of that date, if an individual who
22 filed a joint return for any taxable year has made an
23 election under this paragraph, the individual's
24 liability for any tax shown on the joint return shall
25 not exceed the individual's separate return amount and
26 the individual's liability for any deficiency assessed

SB2435 Enrolled- 2237 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 for that taxable year shall not exceed the portion of
2 the deficiency properly allocable to the individual.
3 For purposes of this paragraph:
4 (i) An election properly made pursuant to
5 Section 6015 of the Internal Revenue Code shall
6 constitute an election under this paragraph,
7 provided that the election shall not be effective
8 until the individual has notified the Department
9 of the election in the form and manner prescribed
10 by the Department.
11 (ii) If no election has been made under
12 Section 6015, the individual may make an election
13 under this paragraph in the form and manner
14 prescribed by the Department, provided that no
15 election may be made if the Department finds that
16 assets were transferred between individuals filing
17 a joint return as part of a scheme by such
18 individuals to avoid payment of Illinois income
19 tax and the election shall not eliminate the
20 individual's liability for any portion of a
21 deficiency attributable to an error on the return
22 of which the individual had actual knowledge as of
23 the date of filing.
24 (iii) In determining the separate return
25 amount or portion of any deficiency attributable
26 to an individual, the Department shall follow the

SB2435 Enrolled- 2238 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b
1 provisions in subsections (c) and (d) of Section
2 6015 of the Internal Revenue Code.
3 (iv) In determining the validity of an
4 individual's election under subparagraph (ii) and
5 in determining an electing individual's separate
6 return amount or portion of any deficiency under

9 Tax Court on petition for review of a
10 determination by the Secretary of the Treasury, or
11 on appeal from the United States Tax Court under
12 Section 6015 of the Internal Revenue Code
13 regarding criteria for eligibility or under
14 subsection (d) of Section 6015 of the Internal
15 Revenue Code regarding the allocation of any item
16 of income, deduction, payment, or credit between
17 an individual making the federal election and that
18 individual's spouse shall be conclusively presumed
19 to be correct. With respect to any item that is not
20 the subject of a determination by the Secretary of
21 the Treasury or the federal courts, in any
22 proceeding involving this subsection, the
23 individual making the election shall have the
24 burden of proof with respect to any item except
25 that the Department shall have the burden of proof
26 with respect to items in subdivision (ii).

11 Department has notified the electing individual in
12 writing that the election is invalid or of the
13 portion of the liability the Department has
14 allocated to the electing individual. Within 60
15 days (150 days if the individual is outside the
16 United States) after the issuance of such
17 notification, the individual may file a written
18 protest of the denial of the election or of the
19 Department's determination of the liability
20 allocated to him or her and shall be granted a
21 hearing within the Department under the provisions
22 of Section 908. If a protest is filed, the
23 Department shall take no collection action against
24 the electing individual until the decision
25 regarding the protest has become final under
26 subsection (d) of Section 908 or, if

SB2435 Enrolled- 2240 -LRB102 04062 AMC 14078 b

5allocable to this State in accordance with section 305(c)
6shall retain information concerning all items of income, gain,
7loss and deduction; the names and addresses of all of the

9liability company, or other persons who would be entitled to
10share in the base income of the partnership if distributed;
11the amount of the distributive share of each; and such other

3 return has been made, upon submission of proof that
4 the Internal Revenue Service has made a determination
5 under Section 6013(e) of the Internal Revenue Code,

7 relieved the spouse from liability for federal income
8 taxes. If there is no federal income tax liability at
9 issue for the same taxable year, the Department shall

6 (ii) If no election has been made under

14 tax and the election shall not eliminate the
15 individual's liability for any portion of a
16 deficiency attributable to an error on the return
17 of which the individual had actual knowledge as of
18 the date of filing.
19 (iii) In determining the separate return

14 to be correct. With respect to any item that is not
15 the subject of a determination by the Secretary of
16 the Treasury or the federal courts, in any
17 proceeding involving this subsection, the
18 individual making the election shall have the
19 burden of proof with respect to any item except
20 that the Department shall have the burden of proof
21 with respect to items in subdivision (ii).

16 hearing within the Department under the provisions
17 of Section 908. If a protest is filed, the
18 Department shall take no collection action against
19 the electing individual until the decision
20 regarding the protest has become final under
