Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Counties Code and the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District Act. Requires counties located within the area served by the Northeastern Illinois Planning Commission and having a population over 400,000 to enter into intergovernmental agreements setting standards to control stormwater runoff so as not to cause flood damage in adjacent counties. Directs the Department of Transportation, upon petition, to adopt the standards if an agreement is not created. Provides for the adoption and implementation of a Cook County stormwater management plan by the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District. Authorizes the District to implement the plan throughout the county. Authorizes the District to impose fees on areas outside the District but within the County. Authorizes a special tax levy for stormwater management purposes and reduces the District's authorized tax levy for general corporate purposes by a corresponding amount. Preempts some home rule powers. Amends the Property Tax Code to exclude the stormwater management tax from the tax caps imposed under the Property Tax Extension Limitation Law. Effective immediately.

	Housing Affordability Impact Note (Illinois Housing Development Authority)
	HB 5884 may increase the cost of owning a single-family home. However, its long term effect on homeowners and homebuyers cannot be determined due to other factors affecting affordability.

	Fiscal Note (Illinois Emergency Management Agency)
	HB 5884 has no immediate impact. However, this bill has the potential to reduce future property loss due to surface flooding from severe storms.

	Fiscal Note (Department of Revenue)
	HB 5884 will have no fiscal impact on the Department of Revenue
