    AN ACT to amend the Senior Citizens and Disabled  Persons
Property  Tax  Relief  and  Pharmaceutical  Assistance Act by
changing Section 3.09.

    Be it enacted by the People of  the  State  of  Illinois,
represented in the General Assembly:

    Section  5.   The  Senior  Citizens  and Disabled Persons
Property Tax Relief  and  Pharmaceutical  Assistance  Act  is
amended by changing Section 3.09 as follows:

    (320 ILCS 25/3.09) (from Ch. 67 1/2, par. 403.09)
    Sec. 3.09.  "Property taxes accrued" means the ad valorem
property  taxes  extended  against  a residence, but does not
include special assessments, interest or charges for service.
In the case of real estate improved with a  multidwelling  or
multipurpose  building,  "property  taxes  accrued"  extended
against a residence within such a building is an amount equal
to  the  same percentage of the total property taxes extended
against that real estate as improved  as  the  value  of  the
residence  is  to  the  total  value of the building.  If the
multidwelling  building  is   owned   and   operated   as   a
cooperative,  the  value  of  an  individual residence is the
value of the interest in the cooperative held by the owner of
record of the legal  or  equitable  interest,  other  than  a
leasehold  interest,  in  the  cooperative  which confers the
right to occupy that residence. In determining the amount  of
grant under Section 4 for 1976 and thereafter, the applicable
"property  taxes  accrued", as determined under this Section,
are those payable or paid in the last preceding taxable year.
    In addition, if the residence is a mobile home as defined
in and subject to the tax imposed by the  Mobile  Home  Local
Services  Tax  Act  "An Act to provide for a privilege tax on
mobile homes", approved  August  28,  1973,  "property  taxes
accrued" includes the amount of privilege tax paid during the
calendar  year  for which benefits are claimed under that Act
on that mobile home. Beginning in taxable year 1999,  if  (i)
the  residence  is  a  mobile  home, (ii) the resident is the
record owner of the property upon which the  mobile  home  is
located,  and  (iii)  the  resident  is  liable for the taxes
imposed under the Property Tax Code for both the mobile  home
and  the property, then "property taxes accrued" includes the
amount of property taxes paid on both the mobile home and the
property upon which the mobile home is located.

becoming law.
