Sec. 3-5027.
Real estate index number system; counties of less
than 1,000,000. In counties with a population of less than 1,000,000, the
recorder, pursuant to ordinance or resolution of the county board, may
establish a permanent real estate index number system which shall describe
all real estate in the county by township, Section, block, and parcel or
lot, the street or post office address, if any, and street code number, if
any, of such real estate. The recorder having established such index number
system shall be the sole authority in the county to designate
and assign index numbers and may establish and maintain cross indexes of
numbers assigned with the complete legal description of the real estate
to which such numbers relate. Such index number system may be used by the
supervisor of assessments or board of assessors, as the case may be, in
counties of less than 1,000,000 population for the purposes of assessment
and collection of taxes. If a real estate index number system is being
maintained by an authority other than the recorder on September 8, 1980,
the county board may approve the adoption, modification or expansion of
such system by the recorder and the recorder shall thereafter designate and
assign all index numbers under said system. All indexes established
hereunder shall be open to public inspection and shall be made available to
the public during regular business hours.
