Provides that, through December 31, 2010, the Department of Transportation shall pay to the Will County Treasurer, from the Tax Recovery Fund (a new Fund created in the State Finance Act into which the State shall deposit all receipts from the lease of this property), on or before July 1 of each year, the amount of rent collected for each parcel during the previous year, which payment shall not exceed, for each parcel, the assessed tax amount for the 2001 property tax year (tax compensation).

	Fiscal Note (Department of Transportation)
	To date from inception (3/7/02) IDOT has received in rental revenue $197,694.23.

Senate Floor Amendment No. 2
In the Tax Recovery Fund provisions in the State Finance Act, provides that "tax compensation" shall be determined in accordance with provisions in the Property Tax Code governing the taxation of State property that is leased to others. In the Property Tax Code, provides that annually the Will County Treasurer shall distribute a portion of the entire payment by the Illinois Department of Transportation to the Will County Treasurer out of the Tax Recovery Fund for each parcel to the corporate authorities of each taxing district in an amount equal to that taxing district's pro rata share of that parcel's 2001 property tax bill. Provides that the Will County Treasurer shall treat the annual payments as taxes for the limited purpose of distributing the payments in accordance with the Code.

	Fiscal Note (S-AM1) (Dept of Commerce and Community Affairs)
	No fiscal impact on DCCA. The extent of fiscal impact on local governments cannot be determined.

State Mandates Fiscal Note (S-AM 1 & 2) (Illinois Community College System)

Under the State Mandates Act, a "State Mandate" means any State-initiated statutory or executive action that requires a unit of local government to establish, expand, or modify its activities in such a way as to necessitate additional expenditures from local revenues. Each community college is considered a unit of local government. Joliet Junior College receives operating revenues from local property taxes. This legislation provides that the State will compensate units of local government for property taxes that would have been collected before the State purchased the land in Will County for the development of an airport. The taxes paid by the State through 2010 will not exceed the assessment made in 2001. The amount that the State is able to pay toward the property taxes can be no more than is generated in leases. There is no estimate on the amount that Joliet Junior College may or may not lose with the transfer of this land to the State for development of an airport.

	State Mandates Fiscal Note (Illinois State Board of Education)
	This legislation does not constitute a State Mandate.
