5 Section 5. The School Code is amended by changing
6 Section 35-12.1 as follows:
7 (105 ILCS 5/35-12.1) (from Ch. 122, par. 35-12.1)
8 Sec. 35-12.1. Emergency fund. To expedite the replacement
9 or reconstruction of school buildings destroyed or damaged by
10 flood, tornado, fire, or other disaster produced solely by
11 nature, the Commission may use up to $1,850,000 of its annual
12 appropriation of grant monies for the emergency replacement
13 or reconstruction of these such buildings. This amount shall
14 be used in addition to whatever insurance benefits are
15 received because of the damaged or destroyed buildings.
16 Applications for such emergency aid shall be treated
17 separately from other applications. In all other respects,
18 such emergency aid shall be subject to the same requirements
19 as other aid under this Article, except that districts which
20 have reached 60% of their bonding power at the time such
21 destruction or damage occurs shall also qualify for emergency
22 aid, in addition to districts qualifying under Section 35-7.
