| ||||||
17 | Sec. 2-10. Mandatory establishment of multi-township | ||||||
18 | assessment districts.
Before August 1, 2002 and every 10 | ||||||
19 | years thereafter, the supervisor of
assessments shall prepare | ||||||
20 | maps, by county, of the townships, indicating the
number of | ||||||
21 | inhabitants and the equalized assessed valuation of each | ||||||
22 | township for
the preceding year, within the counties under | ||||||
23 | township organization, and shall
distribute a copy of that map | ||||||
24 | to the county board and to each township
supervisor, board of | ||||||
25 | trustees, sitting township or multi-township assessor, and
to |
| |||||||
| |||||||

2 | assessment
districts for purposes of assessment. Upon receipt | ||||||
3 | of the maps, the boards of
trustees shall determine | ||||||
4 | separately, by majority vote, if the suggested
multi-township | ||||||
5 | districts are acceptable.
| ||||||
6 | The township boards of trustees may meet as a body to | ||||||
7 | discuss the suggested
districts of which they would be a part. | ||||||
8 | Upon request of the township
supervisor of any township, the | ||||||
9 | township supervisor of the township containing
the most | ||||||
10 | population shall call the meeting, designating the time and | ||||||
11 | place, and

meeting. The | ||||||
14 | township assessors and supervisor of assessments may | ||||||

17 | meetings in the Township Code. The meeting shall be open to the | ||||||
18 | public and may be recessed
from time to time.
| ||||||
19 | If a multi-township assessment district is not acceptable | ||||||
20 | to any board of
trustees, they shall so determine and further | ||||||
21 | determine an alternative
multi-township assessment district. | ||||||
22 | The suggested or
alternative multi-township assessment | ||||||
23 | district shall contain at least 2
qualified townships , as | ||||||
24 | defined in Section 2-5 and 1,000 or more inhabitants , shall | ||||||
25 | contain no less than the
total area of any one township, shall | ||||||
26 | be contiguous to at least one
other township in the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | multi-township assessment district, and shall be located
| ||||||
2 | within one county.
For purposes of this Section only, | ||||||
3 | townships are contiguous if they share a
common boundary line | ||||||
4 | or meet at any point. This amendatory Act of 1996 is not
a new | ||||||
5 | enactment, but is declarative of existing law.
| ||||||
6 | Before September 15, 2002 and every 10 years thereafter, | ||||||
7 | the respective
boards of town trustees shall notify the | ||||||
8 | supervisor of assessments and the
Department whether they have | ||||||
9 | accepted the suggested multi-township assessment
district or | ||||||
10 | whether they have adopted an alternative district, and, in the
| ||||||
11 | latter case, they shall include in the notification a | ||||||
12 | description or map, by
township, of the alternative district. | ||||||
13 | Before October 1, 2002 and every 10
years thereafter, the | ||||||
14 | supervisor of assessments shall determine whether any
| ||||||
15 | suggested or alternative multi-township assessment district | ||||||
16 | meets the
conditions of this Section and Section 2-5. If any | ||||||
17 | township board of trustees
fails to so notify the supervisor | ||||||
18 | of assessments and the Department as provided
in this Section, | ||||||
19 | the township shall be part of the original suggested
| ||||||
20 | multi-township assessment district. In any dispute between 2 | ||||||
21 | or more townships
as to inclusion or exclusion of a township in | ||||||
22 | any one multi-township assessment
district, the county board | ||||||
23 | shall hold a public hearing in the county seat and,
as soon as | ||||||
24 | practicable thereafter, make a final determination as to the
| ||||||
25 | composition of the district. It shall notify the Department of | ||||||
26 | the final
determination before November 15, 2002 and every 10 |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | years thereafter. The
Department shall promulgate the | ||||||
2 | multi-township assessment districts, file the
same with the | ||||||
3 | Secretary of State as provided in the Illinois Administrative
| ||||||
4 | Procedure Act and so notify the township supervisors, boards | ||||||
5 | of trustees and
county clerks of the townships and counties | ||||||
6 | subject to this Section and Section
2-5. If the Department's | ||||||
7 | promulgation removes
a township from a prior multi-township | ||||||
8 | assessment district, that township
shall, within 30 days after | ||||||
9 | the effective date of the removal, receive a
distribution of a | ||||||
10 | portion of the assets of the prior multi-township
assessment | ||||||
11 | district according to the ratio of the total equalized | ||||||
12 | assessed
valuation of all the taxable property in the township | ||||||
13 | to the total equalized
assessed valuation of all the taxable | ||||||
14 | property in the prior multi-township
assessment district. If a | ||||||
15 | township is removed from one multi-township
assessment | ||||||
16 | district and made a part of another multi-township assessment
| ||||||
17 | district, the district from which the township is removed | ||||||
18 | shall, within 30 days
after the effective date of the removal, | ||||||
19 | cause the township's
distribution under this paragraph to be | ||||||
20 | paid directly to the district of
which the township is made a | ||||||
21 | part. A township receiving such a
distribution (or a | ||||||
22 | multi-township assessment district receiving such a
| ||||||
23 | distribution on behalf of a township that is made a part of | ||||||
24 | that district)
shall use the proceeds from the distribution | ||||||
25 | only in connection with assessing
real estate in the township | ||||||
26 | for tax purposes.
