"Section 1. Short title. This Act may be cited as the Illinois
Growth Act.
Section 5. Legislative findings. It is in the economic interest
of the citizens of the State of Illinois to achieve more balanced
growth and more rational land use, and to preserve the cultural,

public interest to stimulate better local and regional planning and to
coordinate the work of State agencies with county, municipal, and
regional plans. It is the purpose of this Act to create a group of
leaders representing agriculture, development, conservation, local
government, planning, public transportation, and the environment to
assist the Governor's Balanced Growth Cabinet in promoting coordinated
and balanced growth.
Section 10. Balanced Growth Council.
(a) The Balanced Growth Council is created. The Council shall

select one of their members to be the Chairperson of the Council.
(b) Of the initial members, 4 shall be appointed to serve 3-year

local government, and the private sector to encourage partnerships
that enhance the capability to plan and coordinate land use,
transportation, and housing decisions.
(3) Encourage strategies that protect natural, cultural, and
farmland resources and that foster balanced growth.
[April 2, 2001] 14
(4) Consult with the Balanced Growth Cabinet and federal
agencies to coordinate and optimize the expenditure of public funds
affecting land use, transportation choices, and affordable housing.

by the Balanced Growth Cabinet agencies and assist in improving the
coordination of State programs and expenditures.
(6) Compare State programs and expenditures with local,
county, and regional land use and transportation goals.
(7) Encourage the spending of State technical assistance
funds for resource inventories, land use planning initiatives, and
plan implementation in the State.
(8) To the extent possible, the Council must make
recommendations to the Balanced Growth Cabinet in accordance with
balanced growth principles and initiatives identified by the
Working Groups of the Legislative Growth Task Force of the 91st
General Assembly (Senate Joint Resolution 45).
Section 20. Agency duties. Balanced Growth Cabinet agencies must
provide the Council, upon request, with information concerning agency
programs and activities that impact land use, transportation, housing,
development, and planning. Whenever possible this information should
be geographically specific and allow comparisons with the work of other
agencies in order to determine whether a project's impacts are
coordinated with other State projects and are consistent with any
local, county, and regional plans.

AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO HOUSE BILL 2298
AMENDMENT NO. 1. Amend House Bill 2298 as follows:
by replacing everything after the enacting clause with the following:
"Section 5. The Illinois Public Aid Code is amended by changing
Sections 10-2, 10-8.1, 10-10, and 10-11 as follows:
(305 ILCS 5/10-2) (from Ch. 23, par. 10-2)
Sec. 10-2. Extent of Liability. A husband is liable for the
support of his wife and a wife for the support of her husband. The
parents are severally liable for the support of any child under age 18,
[April 2, 2001] 16
and for any child aged 18 who is attending high school, until that
child graduates from high school, or attains the age of 19, whichever
is earlier 21, except that a parent is not liable for a child age 18 or
over if such child is not living with the parent or parents, and a
parent is not liable for a child of any age if the child has married
and is not living with the parent or parents. A child shall be
considered to be living with the parent or parents if such child is
absent from the parent's or parents' home only in order to regularly
attend a school, college or university or to receive technical training
designed for preparation for gainful employment. The term "child"
includes a child born out of wedlock, or legally adopted child.
In addition to the primary obligation of support imposed upon
responsible relatives, such relatives, if individually or together in
any combination they have sufficient income or other resources to
support a needy person, in whole or in part, shall be liable for any
financial aid extended under this Code to a person for whose support
they are responsible, including amounts expended for funeral and burial
costs.
(Source: P.A. 89-641, eff. 8-9-96; 90-18, eff. 7-1-97.)
(305 ILCS 5/10-8.1)
Sec. 10-8.1. Temporary order for child support. Notwithstanding
any other law to the contrary, pending the outcome of an administrative
determination of parentage, the Illinois Department shall issue a
temporary order for child support, upon motion by a party and a showing
of clear and convincing evidence of paternity. In determining the
amount of the temporary child support award, the Illinois Department
shall use the guidelines and standards set forth in subsection (a) of
Section 505 and in Section 505.2 of the Illinois Marriage and
Dissolution of Marriage Act.
Any new or existing support order entered by the Illinois
Department under this Section shall be deemed to be a series of
judgments against the person obligated to pay support thereunder, each
such judgment to be in the amount of each payment or installment of
support and each judgment to be deemed entered as of the date the
corresponding payment or installment becomes due under the terms of the
support order. Each such judgment shall have the full force, effect,
and attributes of any other judgment of this State, including the
ability to be enforced. Any such judgment is subject to modification
or termination only in accordance with Section 510 of the Illinois
Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act. A lien arises by operation of
law against the real and personal property of the noncustodial parent
for each installment of overdue support owed by the noncustodial
parent.
All orders for support entered or modified in a case in which a
party is receiving child and spouse support services under this Article
X shall include a provision requiring the non-custodial parent to
notify the Illinois Department, within 7 days, (i) of the name,
address, and telephone number of any new employer of the non-custodial
parent, (ii) whether the non-custodial parent has access to health
insurance coverage through the employer or other group coverage, and,
if so, the policy name and number and the names of persons covered
under the policy, and (iii) of any new residential or mailing address
or telephone number of the non-custodial parent.
In any subsequent action to enforce a support order, upon
sufficient showing that diligent effort has been made to ascertain the
location of the non-custodial parent, service of process or provision
of notice necessary in that action may be made at the last known
address of the non-custodial parent, in any manner expressly provided
by the Code of Civil Procedure or this Act, which service shall be
sufficient for purposes of due process.
An order for support shall include a date on which the current
support obligation terminates. The termination date shall be no
earlier than the date on which the child covered by the order will
attain the age of 18. However, if the child will not graduate from
high school until after attaining the age of 18, then the termination
date shall be no earlier than the earlier of the date on which the
17 [April 2, 2001]
child's high school graduation will occur or the date on which the
child will attain the age of 19 majority or is otherwise emancipated.
The order for support shall state that the termination date does not
apply to any arrearage that may remain unpaid on that date. Nothing in
this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Illinois Department
from modifying the order.
(Source: P.A. 90-18, eff. 7-1-97.)
(305 ILCS 5/10-10) (from Ch. 23, par. 10-10)
Sec. 10-10. Court enforcement; applicability also to persons who
are not applicants or recipients. Except where the Illinois
Department, by agreement, acts for the local governmental unit, as
provided in Section 10-3.1, local governmental units shall refer to the
State's Attorney or to the proper legal representative of the
governmental unit, for judicial enforcement as herein provided,
instances of non-support or insufficient support when the dependents
are applicants or recipients under Article VI. The Child and Spouse
Support Unit established by Section 10-3.1 may institute in behalf of
the Illinois Department any actions under this Section for judicial
enforcement of the support liability when the dependents are (a)
applicants or recipients under Articles III, IV, V or VII; (b)
applicants or recipients in a local governmental unit when the Illinois
Department, by agreement, acts for the unit; or (c) non-applicants or
non-recipients who are receiving support enforcement services under
this Article X, as provided in Section 10-1. Where the Child and
Spouse Support Unit has exercised its option and discretion not to
apply the provisions of Sections 10-3 through 10-8, the failure by the
Unit to apply such provisions shall not be a bar to bringing an action
under this Section.
Action shall be brought in the circuit court to obtain support, or
for the recovery of aid granted during the period such support was not
provided, or both for the obtainment of support and the recovery of the
aid provided. Actions for the recovery of aid may be taken separately
or they may be consolidated with actions to obtain support. Such
actions may be brought in the name of the person or persons requiring
support, or may be brought in the name of the Illinois Department or
the local governmental unit, as the case requires, in behalf of such
persons.
The court may enter such orders for the payment of moneys for the
support of the person as may be just and equitable and may direct
payment thereof for such period or periods of time as the circumstances
require, including support for a period before the date the order for
support is entered. The order may be entered against any or all of the
defendant responsible relatives and may be based upon the proportionate
ability of each to contribute to the person's support.
The Court shall determine the amount of child support (including
child support for a period before the date the order for child support
is entered) by using the guidelines and standards set forth in
subsection (a) of Section 505 and in Section 505.2 of the Illinois
Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act. For purposes of determining
the amount of child support to be paid for a period before the date the
order for child support is entered, there is a rebuttable presumption
that the responsible relative's net income for that period was the same
as his or her net income at the time the order is entered.
If (i) the responsible relative was properly served with a request
for discovery of financial information relating to the responsible
relative's ability to provide child support, (ii) the responsible
relative failed to comply with the request, despite having been ordered
to do so by the court, and (iii) the responsible relative is not
present at the hearing to determine support despite having received
proper notice, then any relevant financial information concerning the
responsible relative's ability to provide child support that was
obtained pursuant to subpoena and proper notice shall be admitted into
evidence without the need to establish any further foundation for its
admission.
An order entered under this Section shall include a provision
requiring the obligor to report to the obligee and to the clerk of
[April 2, 2001] 18
court within 10 days each time the obligor obtains new employment, and
each time the obligor's employment is terminated for any reason. The
report shall be in writing and shall, in the case of new employment,
include the name and address of the new employer. Failure to report new
employment or the termination of current employment, if coupled with
nonpayment of support for a period in excess of 60 days, is indirect
criminal contempt. For any obligor arrested for failure to report new
employment bond shall be set in the amount of the child support that
should have been paid during the period of unreported employment. An
order entered under this Section shall also include a provision
requiring the obligor and obligee parents to advise each other of a
change in residence within 5 days of the change except when the court
finds that the physical, mental, or emotional health of a party or that
of a minor child, or both, would be seriously endangered by disclosure
of the party's address.
The Court shall determine the amount of maintenance using the
standards set forth in Section 504 of the Illinois Marriage and
Dissolution of Marriage Act.
Any new or existing support order entered by the court under this
Section shall be deemed to be a series of judgments against the person
obligated to pay support thereunder, each such judgment to be in the
amount of each payment or installment of support and each such judgment
to be deemed entered as of the date the corresponding payment or
installment becomes due under the terms of the support order. Each
such judgment shall have the full force, effect and attributes of any
other judgment of this State, including the ability to be enforced.
Any such judgment is subject to modification or termination only in
accordance with Section 510 of the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of
Marriage Act. A lien arises by operation of law against the real and
personal property of the noncustodial parent for each installment of
overdue support owed by the noncustodial parent.
When an order is entered for the support of a minor, the court may
provide therein for reasonable visitation of the minor by the person or
persons who provided support pursuant to the order. Whoever willfully
refuses to comply with such visitation order or willfully interferes
with its enforcement may be declared in contempt of court and punished
therefor.
Except where the local governmental unit has entered into an
agreement with the Illinois Department for the Child and Spouse Support
Unit to act for it, as provided in Section 10-3.1, support orders
entered by the court in cases involving applicants or recipients under
Article VI shall provide that payments thereunder be made directly to
the local governmental unit. Orders for the support of all other
applicants or recipients shall provide that payments thereunder be made
directly to the Illinois Department. In accordance with federal law and
regulations, the Illinois Department may continue to collect current
maintenance payments or child support payments, or both, after those
persons cease to receive public assistance and until termination of
services under Article X. The Illinois Department shall pay the net
amount collected to those persons after deducting any costs incurred in
making the collection or any collection fee from the amount of any
recovery made. In both cases the order shall permit the local
governmental unit or the Illinois Department, as the case may be, to
direct the responsible relative or relatives to make support payments
directly to the needy person, or to some person or agency in his
behalf, upon removal of the person from the public aid rolls or upon
termination of services under Article X.
If the notice of support due issued pursuant to Section 10-7
directs that support payments be made directly to the needy person, or
to some person or agency in his behalf, and the recipient is removed
from the public aid rolls, court action may be taken against the
responsible relative hereunder if he fails to furnish support in
accordance with the terms of such notice.
Actions may also be brought under this Section in behalf of any
person who is in need of support from responsible relatives, as defined
in Section 2-11 of Article II who is not an applicant for or recipient
19 [April 2, 2001]
of financial aid under this Code. In such instances, the State's
Attorney of the county in which such person resides shall bring action
against the responsible relatives hereunder. If the Illinois
Department, as authorized by Section 10-1, extends the support services
provided by this Article to spouses and dependent children who are not
applicants or recipients under this Code, the Child and Spouse Support
Unit established by Section 10-3.1 shall bring action against the
responsible relatives hereunder and any support orders entered by the
court in such cases shall provide that payments thereunder be made
directly to the Illinois Department.
Whenever it is determined in a proceeding to establish or enforce a
child support or maintenance obligation that the person owing a duty of
support is unemployed, the court may order the person to seek
employment and report periodically to the court with a diary, listing
or other memorandum of his or her efforts in accordance with such
order. Additionally, the court may order the unemployed person to
report to the Department of Employment Security for job search services
or to make application with the local Job Jobs Training Partnership Act
provider for participation in job search, training or work programs and
where the duty of support is owed to a child receiving support services
under this Article X, the court may order the unemployed person to
report to the Illinois Department for participation in job search,
training or work programs established under Section 9-6 and Article IXA
of this Code.
Whenever it is determined that a person owes past-due support for a
child receiving assistance under this Code, the court shall order at
the request of the Illinois Department:
(1) that the person pay the past-due support in accordance
with a plan approved by the court; or
(2) if the person owing past-due support is unemployed, is
subject to such a plan, and is not incapacitated, that the person
participate in such job search, training, or work programs
established under Section 9-6 and Article IXA of this Code as the
court deems appropriate.
A determination under this Section shall not be administratively
reviewable by the procedures specified in Sections 10-12, and 10-13 to
10-13.10. Any determination under these Sections, if made the basis of
court action under this Section, shall not affect the de novo judicial
determination required under this Section.
A one-time charge of 20% is imposable upon the amount of past-due
child support owed on July 1, 1988 which has accrued under a support
order entered by the court. The charge shall be imposed in accordance
with the provisions of Section 10-21 of this Code and shall be enforced
by the court upon petition.
All orders for support, when entered or modified, shall include a
provision requiring the non-custodial parent to notify the court and,
in cases in which a party is receiving child and spouse support
services under this Article X, the Illinois Department, within 7 days,
(i) of the name, address, and telephone number of any new employer of
the non-custodial parent, (ii) whether the non-custodial parent has
access to health insurance coverage through the employer or other group
coverage and, if so, the policy name and number and the names of
persons covered under the policy, and (iii) of any new residential or
mailing address or telephone number of the non-custodial parent. In
any subsequent action to enforce a support order, upon a sufficient
showing that a diligent effort has been made to ascertain the location
of the non-custodial parent, service of process or provision of notice
necessary in the case may be made at the last known address of the
non-custodial parent in any manner expressly provided by the Code of
Civil Procedure or this Code, which service shall be sufficient for
purposes of due process.
An order for support shall include a date on which the current
support obligation terminates. The termination date shall be no
earlier than the date on which the child covered by the order will
attain the age of 18. However, if the child will not graduate from
high school until after attaining the age of 18, then the termination
[April 2, 2001] 20
date shall be no earlier than the earlier of the date on which the
child's high school graduation will occur or the date on which the
child will attain the age of 19 majority or is otherwise emancipated.
The order for support shall state that the termination date does not
apply to any arrearage that may remain unpaid on that date. Nothing in
this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the court from modifying
the order.
Upon notification in writing or by electronic transmission from the
Illinois Department to the clerk of the court that a person who is
receiving support payments under this Section is receiving services
under the Child Support Enforcement Program established by Title IV-D
of the Social Security Act, any support payments subsequently received
by the clerk of the court shall be transmitted in accordance with the
instructions of the Illinois Department until the Illinois Department
gives notice to the clerk of the court to cease the transmittal. After
providing the notification authorized under this paragraph, the
Illinois Department shall be entitled as a party to notice of any
further proceedings in the case. The clerk of the court shall file a
copy of the Illinois Department's notification in the court file. The
clerk's failure to file a copy of the notification in the court file
shall not, however, affect the Illinois Department's right to receive
notice of further proceedings.
Payments under this Section to the Illinois Department pursuant to
the Child Support Enforcement Program established by Title IV-D of the
Social Security Act shall be paid into the Child Support Enforcement
Trust Fund. All payments under this Section to the Illinois Department
of Human Services shall be deposited in the DHS Recoveries Trust Fund.
Disbursements from these funds shall be as provided in Sections 12-9.1
and 12-10.2 of this Code. Payments received by a local governmental
unit shall be deposited in that unit's General Assistance Fund.
To the extent the provisions of this Section are inconsistent with
the requirements pertaining to the State Disbursement Unit under
Sections 10-10.4 and 10-26 of this Code, the requirements pertaining to
the State Disbursement Unit shall apply.

Sec. 10-11. Administrative Orders. In lieu of actions for court
enforcement of support under Section 10-10, the Child and Spouse
Support Unit of the Illinois Department, in accordance with the rules
of the Illinois Department, may issue an administrative order requiring
the responsible relative to comply with the terms of the determination
and notice of support due, determined and issued under Sections 10-6
and 10-7. The Unit may also enter an administrative order under
subsection (b) of Section 10-7. The administrative order shall be
served upon the responsible relative by United States registered or
certified mail. In cases in which the responsible relative appeared at
the office of the Child and Spouse Support Unit in response to the
notice of support obligation issued under Section 10-4, however, or in
cases of default in which the notice was served on the responsible
relative by certified mail, return receipt requested, or by any method
provided by law for service of summons, the administrative
determination of paternity or administrative support order may be sent
to the responsible relative by ordinary mail addressed to the
responsible relative's last known address.
If a responsible relative or a person receiving child and spouse
support services under this Article fails to petition the Illinois
Department for release from or modification of the administrative
order, as provided in Section 10-12 or Section 10-12.1, the order shall
become final and there shall be no further administrative or judicial
remedy. Likewise a decision by the Illinois Department as a result of
an administrative hearing, as provided in Sections 10-13 to 10-13.10,
shall become final and enforceable if not judicially reviewed under the
Administrative Review Law, as provided in Section 10-14.
21 [April 2, 2001]
Any new or existing support order entered by the Illinois
Department under this Section shall be deemed to be a series of
judgments against the person obligated to pay support thereunder, each
such judgment to be in the amount of each payment or installment of
support and each such judgment to be deemed entered as of the date the
corresponding payment or installment becomes due under the terms of the
support order. Each such judgment shall have the full force, effect
and attributes of any other judgment of this State, including the
ability to be enforced. Any such judgment is subject to modification
or termination only in accordance with Section 510 of the Illinois
Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act. A lien arises by operation of
law against the real and personal property of the noncustodial parent
for each installment of overdue support owed by the noncustodial
parent.
An order entered under this Section shall include a provision
requiring the obligor to report to the obligee and to the clerk of
court within 10 days each time the obligor obtains new employment, and
each time the obligor's employment is terminated for any reason. The
report shall be in writing and shall, in the case of new employment,
include the name and address of the new employer. Failure to report new
employment or the termination of current employment, if coupled with
nonpayment of support for a period in excess of 60 days, is indirect
criminal contempt. For any obligor arrested for failure to report new
employment bond shall be set in the amount of the child support that
should have been paid during the period of unreported employment. An
order entered under this Section shall also include a provision
requiring the obligor and obligee parents to advise each other of a
change in residence within 5 days of the change except when the court
finds that the physical, mental, or emotional health of a party or that
of a minor child, or both, would be seriously endangered by disclosure
of the party's address.
A one-time charge of 20% is imposable upon the amount of past-due
child support owed on July 1, 1988, which has accrued under a support
order entered by the Illinois Department under this Section. The
charge shall be imposed in accordance with the provisions of Section
10-21 and shall be enforced by the court in a suit filed under Section
10-15.
An order for support shall include a date on which the support
obligation terminates. The termination date shall be no earlier than
the date on which the child covered by the order will attain the age of
18. However, if the child will not graduate from high school until
after attaining the age of 18, then the termination date shall be no
earlier than the earlier of the date that the child's graduation will
occur or the date on which the child will attain the age of 19.

Section 10. The Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act
is amended by changing Sections 505, 505.2, 510, and 513 as follows:
(750 ILCS 5/505) (from Ch. 40, par. 505)
Sec. 505. Child support; contempt; penalties.
(a) In a proceeding for dissolution of marriage, legal separation,
declaration of invalidity of marriage, a proceeding for child support
following dissolution of the marriage by a court which lacked personal
jurisdiction over the absent spouse, a proceeding for modification of a
previous order for child support under Section 510 of this Act, or any
proceeding authorized under Section 501 or 601 of this Act, the court
may order either or both parents owing a duty of support to a child of
the marriage to pay an amount reasonable and necessary for his support,
without regard to marital misconduct. The duty of support owed to a
minor child includes the obligation to provide for the reasonable and
necessary physical, mental and emotional health needs of the child.
For purposes of this Section, the term "child" shall include any child
under age 18 and any child under age 19 who is still attending high
school.
(1) The Court shall determine the minimum amount of support
by using the following guidelines:
[April 2, 2001] 22
Number of Children Percent of Supporting Party's
Net Income
1 20%
2 25%
3 32%
4 40%
5 45%
6 or more 50%
(2) The above guidelines shall be applied in each case unless
the court makes a finding that application of the guidelines would
be inappropriate, after considering the best interests of the child
in light of evidence including but not limited to one or more of
the following relevant factors:
(a) the financial resources and needs of the child;
(b) the financial resources and needs of the custodial
parent;
(c) the standard of living the child would have enjoyed
had the marriage not been dissolved;
(d) the physical and emotional condition of the child,
and his educational needs; and
(e) the financial resources and needs of the
non-custodial parent.
If the court deviates from the guidelines, the court's finding
shall state the amount of support that would have been required
under the guidelines, if determinable. The court shall include the
reason or reasons for the variance from the guidelines.
(3) "Net income" is defined as the total of all income from
all sources, minus the following deductions:
(a) Federal income tax (properly calculated withholding
or estimated payments);
(b) State income tax (properly calculated withholding or
estimated payments);
(c) Social Security (FICA payments);
(d) Mandatory retirement contributions required by law
or as a condition of employment;
(e) Union dues;
(f) Dependent and individual health/hospitalization
insurance premiums;
(g) Prior obligations of support or maintenance actually
paid pursuant to a court order;
(h) Expenditures for repayment of debts that represent
reasonable and necessary expenses for the production of
income, medical expenditures necessary to preserve life or
health, reasonable expenditures for the benefit of the child
and the other parent, exclusive of gifts. The court shall
reduce net income in determining the minimum amount of support
to be ordered only for the period that such payments are due
and shall enter an order containing provisions for its
self-executing modification upon termination of such payment
period.
(4) In cases where the court order provides for
health/hospitalization insurance coverage pursuant to Section 505.2
of this Act, the premiums for that insurance, or that portion of
the premiums for which the supporting party is responsible in the
case of insurance provided through an employer's health insurance
plan where the employer pays a portion of the premiums, shall be
subtracted from net income in determining the minimum amount of
support to be ordered.
(4.5) In a proceeding for child support following dissolution
of the marriage by a court that lacked personal jurisdiction over
the absent spouse, and in which the court is requiring payment of
support for the period before the date an order for current support
is entered, there is a rebuttable presumption that the supporting
party's net income for the prior period was the same as his or her
net income at the time the order for current support is entered.
(5) If the net income cannot be determined because of default
23 [April 2, 2001]
or any other reason, the court shall order support in an amount
considered reasonable in the particular case. The final order in
all cases shall state the support level in dollar amounts. However,
if the court finds that the child support amount cannot be
expressed exclusively as a dollar amount because all or a portion
of the payor's net income is uncertain as to source, time of
payment, or amount, the court may order a percentage amount of
support in addition to a specific dollar amount and enter such
other orders as may be necessary to determine and enforce, on a
timely basis, the applicable support ordered.
(6) If (i) the non-custodial parent was properly served with
a request for discovery of financial information relating to the
non-custodial parent's ability to provide child support, (ii) the
non-custodial parent failed to comply with the request, despite
having been ordered to do so by the court, and (iii) the
non-custodial parent is not present at the hearing to determine
support despite having received proper notice, then any relevant
financial information concerning the non-custodial parent's ability
to provide child support that was obtained pursuant to subpoena and
proper notice shall be admitted into evidence without the need to
establish any further foundation for its admission.
(a-5) In an action to enforce an order for support based on the
respondent's failure to make support payments as required by the order,
notice of proceedings to hold the respondent in contempt for that
failure may be served on the respondent by personal service or by
regular mail addressed to the respondent's last known address. The
respondent's last known address may be determined from records of the
clerk of the court, from the Federal Case Registry of Child Support
Orders, or by any other reasonable means.
(b) Failure of either parent to comply with an order to pay
support shall be punishable as in other cases of contempt. In addition
to other penalties provided by law the Court may, after finding the
parent guilty of contempt, order that the parent be:
(1) placed on probation with such conditions of probation as
the Court deems advisable;
(2) sentenced to periodic imprisonment for a period not to
exceed 6 months; provided, however, that the Court may permit the
parent to be released for periods of time during the day or night
to:
(A) work; or
(B) conduct a business or other self-employed
occupation.
The Court may further order any part or all of the earnings of a
parent during a sentence of periodic imprisonment paid to the Clerk of
the Circuit Court or to the parent having custody or to the guardian
having custody of the minor children of the sentenced parent for the
support of said minor children until further order of the Court.
If there is a unity of interest and ownership sufficient to render
no financial separation between a non-custodial parent and another
person or persons or business entity, the court may pierce the
ownership veil of the person, persons, or business entity to discover
assets of the non-custodial parent held in the name of that person,
those persons, or that business entity. The following circumstances
are sufficient to authorize a court to order discovery of the assets of
a person, persons, or business entity and to compel the application of
any discovered assets toward payment on the judgment for support:
(1) the non-custodial parent and the person, persons, or
business entity maintain records together.
(2) the non-custodial parent and the person, persons, or
business entity fail to maintain an arms length relationship
between themselves with regard to any assets.
(3) the non-custodial parent transfers assets to the person,
persons, or business entity with the intent to perpetrate a fraud
on the custodial parent.
With respect to assets which are real property, no order entered
under this paragraph shall affect the rights of bona fide purchasers,
[April 2, 2001] 24
mortgagees, judgment creditors, or other lien holders who acquire
their interests in the property prior to the time a notice of lis
pendens pursuant to the Code of Civil Procedure or a copy of the order
is placed of record in the office of the recorder of deeds for the
county in which the real property is located.
The court may also order in cases where the parent is 90 days or
more delinquent in payment of support or has been adjudicated in
arrears in an amount equal to 90 days obligation or more, that the
parent's Illinois driving privileges be suspended until the court
determines that the parent is in compliance with the order of support.
The court may also order that the parent be issued a family financial
responsibility driving permit that would allow limited driving
privileges for employment and medical purposes in accordance with
Section 7-702.1 of the Illinois Vehicle Code. The clerk of the circuit
court shall certify the order suspending the driving privileges of the
parent or granting the issuance of a family financial responsibility
driving permit to the Secretary of State on forms prescribed by the
Secretary. Upon receipt of the authenticated documents, the Secretary
of State shall suspend the parent's driving privileges until further
order of the court and shall, if ordered by the court, subject to the
provisions of Section 7-702.1 of the Illinois Vehicle Code, issue a
family financial responsibility driving permit to the parent.
In addition to the penalties or punishment that may be imposed
under this Section, any person whose conduct constitutes a violation of
Section 15 of the Non-Support Punishment Act may be prosecuted under
that Act, and a person convicted under that Act may be sentenced in
accordance with that Act. The sentence may include but need not be
limited to a requirement that the person perform community service
under Section 50 of that Act or participate in a work alternative
program under Section 50 of that Act. A person may not be required to
participate in a work alternative program under Section 50 of that Act
if the person is currently participating in a work program pursuant to
Section 505.1 of this Act.
A support obligation, or any portion of a support obligation, which
becomes due and remains unpaid for 30 days or more shall accrue
interest at the rate of 9% per annum.
(c) A one-time charge of 20% is imposable upon the amount of
past-due child support owed on July 1, 1988 which has accrued under a
support order entered by the court. The charge shall be imposed in
accordance with the provisions of Section 10-21 of the Illinois Public
Aid Code and shall be enforced by the court upon petition.
(d) Any new or existing support order entered by the court under
this Section shall be deemed to be a series of judgments against the
person obligated to pay support thereunder, each such judgment to be in
the amount of each payment or installment of support and each such
judgment to be deemed entered as of the date the corresponding payment
or installment becomes due under the terms of the support order. Each
such judgment shall have the full force, effect and attributes of any
other judgment of this State, including the ability to be enforced. A
lien arises by operation of law against the real and personal property
of the noncustodial parent for each installment of overdue support owed
by the noncustodial parent.
(e) When child support is to be paid through the clerk of the
court in a county of 1,000,000 inhabitants or less, the order shall
direct the obligor to pay to the clerk, in addition to the child
support payments, all fees imposed by the county board under paragraph
(3) of subsection (u) of Section 27.1 of the Clerks of Courts Act.
Unless paid in cash or pursuant to an order for withholding, the
payment of the fee shall be by a separate instrument from the support
payment and shall be made to the order of the Clerk.
(f) All orders for support, when entered or modified, shall
include a provision requiring the obligor to notify the court and, in
cases in which a party is receiving child and spouse services under
Article X of the Illinois Public Aid Code, the Illinois Department of
Public Aid, within 7 days, (i) of the name and address of any new
employer of the obligor, (ii) whether the obligor has access to health
25 [April 2, 2001]
insurance coverage through the employer or other group coverage and, if
so, the policy name and number and the names of persons covered under
the policy, and (iii) of any new residential or mailing address or
telephone number of the non-custodial parent. In any subsequent action
to enforce a support order, upon a sufficient showing that a diligent
effort has been made to ascertain the location of the non-custodial
parent, service of process or provision of notice necessary in the case
may be made at the last known address of the non-custodial parent in
any manner expressly provided by the Code of Civil Procedure or this
Act, which service shall be sufficient for purposes of due process.
(g) An order for support shall include a date on which the current
support obligation terminates. The termination date shall be the date
on which the child covered by the order will attain the age of 18.
However, if the child will not graduate from high school until after
attaining the age of 18, then the termination date shall be no earlier
than the earlier of the date on which the child's high school
graduation will occur or the date on which the child will attain the
age of 19 majority or is otherwise emancipated. The order for support
shall state that the termination date does not apply to any arrearage
that may remain unpaid on that date. Nothing in this subsection shall
be construed to prevent the court from modifying the order.
(h) An order entered under this Section shall include a provision
requiring the obligor to report to the obligee and to the clerk of
court within 10 days each time the obligor obtains new employment, and
each time the obligor's employment is terminated for any reason. The
report shall be in writing and shall, in the case of new employment,
include the name and address of the new employer. Failure to report
new employment or the termination of current employment, if coupled
with nonpayment of support for a period in excess of 60 days, is
indirect criminal contempt. For any obligor arrested for failure to
report new employment bond shall be set in the amount of the child
support that should have been paid during the period of unreported
employment. An order entered under this Section shall also include a
provision requiring the obligor and obligee parents to advise each
other of a change in residence within 5 days of the change except when
the court finds that the physical, mental, or emotional health of a
party or that of a minor child, or both, would be seriously endangered
by disclosure of the party's address.

(750 ILCS 5/505.2) (from Ch. 40, par. 505.2)
Sec. 505.2. Health insurance.
(a) Definitions. As used in this Section:
(1) "Obligee" means the individual to whom the duty of
support is owed or the individual's legal representative.
(2) "Obligor" means the individual who owes a duty of support
pursuant to an order for support.
(3) "Public office" means any elected official or any State
or local agency which is or may become responsible by law for
enforcement of, or which is or may become authorized to enforce, an
order for support, including, but not limited to: the Attorney
General, the Illinois Department of Public Aid, the Illinois
Department of Human Services, the Illinois Department of Children
and Family Services, and the various State's Attorneys, Clerks of
the Circuit Court and supervisors of general assistance.
(4) "Child" shall have the meaning ascribed to it in Section
505.
(b) Order.
(1) Whenever the court establishes, modifies or enforces an
order for child support or for child support and maintenance the
court shall include in the order a provision for the health care
coverage of the child which shall, upon request of the obligee or
Public Office, require that any child covered by the order be named
as a beneficiary of any health insurance plan that is available to
[April 2, 2001] 26
the obligor through an employer or labor union or trade union. If
the court finds that such a plan is not available to the obligor,
or that the plan is not accessible to the obligee, the court may,
upon request of the obligee or Public Office, order the obligor to
name the child covered by the order as a beneficiary of any health
insurance plan that is available to the obligor on a group basis,
or as a beneficiary of an independent health insurance plan to be
obtained by the obligor, after considering the following factors:
(A) the medical needs of the child;
(B) the availability of a plan to meet those needs; and
(C) the cost of such a plan to the obligor.
(2) If the employer or labor union or trade union offers more
than one plan, the order shall require the obligor to name the
child as a beneficiary of the plan in which the obligor is
enrolled.
(3) Nothing in this Section shall be construed to limit the
authority of the court to establish or modify a support order to
provide for payment of expenses, including deductibles, copayments
and any other health expenses, which are in addition to expenses
covered by an insurance plan of which a child is ordered to be
named a beneficiary pursuant to this Section.
(c) Implementation and enforcement.
(1) When the court order requires that a minor child be named
as a beneficiary of a health insurance plan, other than a health
insurance plan available through an employer or labor union or
trade union, the obligor shall provide written proof to the obligee
or Public Office that the required insurance has been obtained, or
that application for insurability has been made, within 30 days of
receiving notice of the court order. Unless the obligor was
present in court when the order was issued, notice of the order
shall be given pursuant to Illinois Supreme Court Rules. If an
obligor fails to provide the required proof, he may be held in
contempt of court.
(2) When the court requires that a minor child be named as a
beneficiary of a health insurance plan available through an
employer or labor union or trade union, the court's order shall be
implemented in accordance with the Income Withholding for Support
Act Section 706.1, as now or hereafter amended.
(d) Failure to maintain insurance. The dollar amount of the
premiums for court-ordered health insurance, or that portion of the
premiums for which the obligor is responsible in the case of insurance
provided under a group health insurance plan through an employer or
labor union or trade union where the employer or labor union or trade
union pays a portion of the premiums, shall be considered an additional
child support obligation owed by the obligor. Whenever the obligor
fails to provide or maintain health insurance pursuant to an order for
support, the obligor shall be liable to the obligee for the dollar
amount of the premiums which were not paid, and shall also be liable
for all medical expenses incurred by the minor child which would have
been paid or reimbursed by the health insurance which the obligor was
ordered to provide or maintain. In addition, the obligee may petition
the court to modify the order based solely on the obligor's failure to
pay the premiums for court-ordered health insurance.
(e) Authorization for payment. The signature of the obligee is a
valid authorization to the insurer to process a claim for payment under
the insurance plan to the provider of the health care services or to
the obligee.
(f) Disclosure of information. The obligor's employer or labor
union or trade union shall disclose to the obligee or Public Office,
upon request, information concerning any dependent coverage plans which
would be made available to a new employee or labor union member or
trade union member. The employer or labor union or trade union shall
disclose such information whether or not a court order for medical
support has been entered.
(g) Employer obligations. If a parent is required by an order for
support to provide coverage for a child's health care expenses and if
27 [April 2, 2001]
that coverage is available to the parent through an employer who does
business in this State, the employer must do all of the following upon
receipt of a copy of the order of support or order for withholding:
(1) The employer shall, upon the parent's request, permit the
parent to include in that coverage a child who is otherwise
eligible for that coverage, without regard to any enrollment season
restrictions that might otherwise be applicable as to the time
period within which the child may be added to that coverage.
(2) If the parent has health care coverage through the
employer but fails to apply for coverage of the child, the employer
shall include the child in the parent's coverage upon application
by the child's other parent or the Illinois Department of Public
Aid.
(3) The employer may not eliminate any child from the
parent's health care coverage unless the employee is no longer
employed by the employer and no longer covered under the employer's
group health plan or unless the employer is provided with
satisfactory written evidence of either of the following:
(A) The order for support is no longer in effect.
(B) The child is or will be included in a comparable
health care plan obtained by the parent under such order that
is currently in effect or will take effect no later than the
date the prior coverage is terminated.
The employer may eliminate a child from a parent's health care
plan obtained by the parent under such order if the employer has
eliminated dependent health care coverage for all of its employees.

(750 ILCS 5/510) (from Ch. 40, par. 510)
Sec. 510. Modification and termination of provisions for
maintenance, support, educational expenses, and property disposition.
(a) Except as otherwise provided in paragraph (f) of Section 502
and in subsection (d), clause (3) of Section 505.2, the provisions of
any judgment respecting maintenance or support may be modified only as
to installments accruing subsequent to due notice by the moving party
of the filing of the motion for modification and, with respect to
maintenance, only upon a showing of a substantial change in
circumstances. An order for child support may be modified as follows:
(1) upon a showing of a substantial change in circumstances;
and
(2) without the necessity of showing a substantial change in
circumstances, as follows:
(A) upon a showing of an inconsistency of at least 20%,
but no less than $10 per month, between the amount of the
existing order and the amount of child support that results
from application of the guidelines specified in Section 505 of
this Act unless the inconsistency is due to the fact that the
amount of the existing order resulted from a deviation from
the guideline amount and there has not been a change in the
circumstances that resulted in that deviation; or
(B) Upon a showing of a need to provide for the health
care needs of the child under the order through health
insurance or other means. In no event shall the eligibility
for or receipt of medical assistance be considered to meet the
need to provide for the child's health care needs.
The provisions of subparagraph (a)(2)(A) shall apply only in cases
in which a party is receiving child and spouse support services from
the Illinois Department of Public Aid under Article X of the Illinois
Public Aid Code, and only when at least 36 months have elapsed since
the order for child support was entered or last modified.
(b) The provisions as to property disposition may not be revoked
or modified, unless the court finds the existence of conditions that
justify the reopening of a judgment under the laws of this State.
(c) Unless otherwise agreed by the parties in a written agreement
set forth in the judgment or otherwise approved by the court, the
obligation to pay future maintenance is terminated upon the death of
[April 2, 2001] 28
either party, or the remarriage of the party receiving maintenance, or
if the party receiving maintenance cohabits with another person on a
resident, continuing conjugal basis.
(d) Unless otherwise provided in this Act, or as agreed in writing
or expressly provided in the judgment, provisions for the support of a
child are terminated by emancipation of the child before age 18, or by
the later of the child attaining age 18 or graduating from high school
while aged 18, but not by the death of a parent obligated to support or
educate the child. Unless otherwise agreed in writing or expressly
provided in a judgment, provisions for the support of a child are
terminated by emancipation of the child, except as otherwise provided
herein, but not by the death of a parent obligated to support or
educate the child. An existing obligation to pay for support or
educational expenses, or both, is not terminated by the death of a
parent. When a parent obligated to pay support or educational
expenses, or both, dies, the amount of support or educational expenses,
or both, may be enforced, modified, revoked or commuted to a lump sum
payment, as equity may require, and that determination may be provided
for at the time of the dissolution of the marriage or thereafter.
(e) The right to petition for support or educational expenses, or
both, under Sections 505 and 513 is not extinguished by the death of a
parent. Upon a petition filed before or after a parent's death, the
court may award sums of money out of the decedent's estate for the
child's support or educational expenses, or both, as equity may
require. The time within which a claim may be filed against the estate
of a decedent under Sections 505 and 513 and subsection (d) and this
subsection shall be governed by the provisions of the Probate Act of
1975, as a barrable, noncontingent claim.

(750 ILCS 5/513) (from Ch. 40, par. 513)
Sec. 513. Support for Non-minor Children and Educational Expenses.
(a) The court may award sums of money out of the property and
income of either or both parties or the estate of a deceased parent, as
equity may require, for the support of the child or children of the
parties who have attained majority in the following instances:
(1) When the child is mentally or physically disabled and not
otherwise emancipated, an application for support may be made
before or after the child has attained majority.
(2) The court may also make provision for the educational
expenses of the child or children of the parties, whether of minor
or majority age, and an application for educational expenses may be
made before or after the child has attained majority, or after the
death of either parent. The authority under this Section to make
provision for educational expenses extends not only to periods of
college education or professional or other training after
graduation from high school, but also to any period during which
the child of the parties is still attending high school, even
though he or she attained the age of 19 18. The educational
expenses may include, but shall not be limited to, room, board,
dues, tuition, transportation, books, fees, registration and
application costs, medical expenses including medical insurance,
dental expenses, and living expenses during the school year and
periods of recess, which sums may be ordered payable to the child,
to either parent, or to the educational institution, directly or
through a special account or trust created for that purpose, as the
court sees fit.
If educational expenses are ordered payable, each parent and
the child shall sign any consents necessary for the educational
institution to provide the supporting parent with access to the
child's academic transcripts, records, and grade reports. The
consents shall not apply to any non-academic records. Failure to
execute the required consent may be a basis for a modification or
termination of any order entered under this Section.
The authority under this Section to make provision for
educational expenses, except where the child is mentally or
physically disabled and not otherwise emancipated, terminates when
29 [April 2, 2001]
the child receives a baccalaureate degree.
(b) In making awards under paragraph (1) or (2) of subsection (a),
or pursuant to a petition or motion to decrease, modify, or terminate
any such award, the court shall consider all relevant factors that
appear reasonable and necessary, including:
(1) The financial resources of both parents.
(2) The standard of living the child would have enjoyed had
the marriage not been dissolved.
(3) The financial resources of the child.
(4) The child's academic performance.

Section 15. The Non-Support Punishment Act is amended by changing
Sections 15 and 20 as follows:
(750 ILCS 16/15)
Sec. 15. Failure to support.
(a) A person commits the offense of failure to support when he or
she:
(1) willfully, without any lawful excuse, refuses to provide
for the support or maintenance of his or her spouse, with the
knowledge that the spouse is in need of such support or
maintenance, or, without lawful excuse, deserts or willfully
refuses to provide for the support or maintenance of his or her
child or children under the age of 18 years, in need of support or
maintenance and the person has the ability to provide the support;
or
(2) willfully fails to pay a support obligation required
under a court or administrative order for support, if the
obligation has remained unpaid for a period longer than 6 months,
or is in arrears in an amount greater than $5,000, and the person
has the ability to provide the support; or
(3) leaves the State with the intent to evade a support
obligation required under a court or administrative order for
support, if the obligation, regardless of when it accrued, has
remained unpaid for a period longer than 6 months, or is in arrears
in an amount greater than $10,000; or
(4) willfully fails to pay a support obligation required under
a court or administrative order for support, if the obligation has
remained unpaid for a period longer than one year, or is in arrears
in an amount greater than $20,000, and the person has the ability
to provide the support.
(a-5) Presumption of ability to pay support. The existence of a
court or administrative order of support that was not based on a
default judgment and was in effect for the time period charged in the
indictment or information creates a rebuttable presumption that the
obligor has the ability to pay the support obligation for that time
period.
(b) Sentence. A person convicted of a first offense under
subdivision (a)(1) or (a)(2) is guilty of a Class A misdemeanor. A
person convicted of an offense under subdivision (a)(3) or (a)(4) or a
second or subsequent offense under subdivision (a)(1) or (a)(2) is
guilty of a Class 4 felony.
(c) Expungement. A person convicted of a first offense under
subdivision (a)(1) or (a)(2) who is eligible for the Earnfare program,
shall, in lieu of the sentence prescribed in subsection (b), be
referred to the Earnfare program. Upon certification of completion of
the Earnfare program, the conviction shall be expunged. If the person
fails to successfully complete the Earnfare program, he or she shall be
sentenced in accordance with subsection (b).
(d) Fine. Sentences of imprisonment and fines for offenses
committed under this Act shall be as provided under Articles 8 and 9 of
Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections, except that the court
shall order restitution of all unpaid support payments and may impose
the following fines, alone, or in addition to a sentence of
imprisonment under the following circumstances:
(1) from $1,000 to $5,000 if the support obligation has
remained unpaid for a period longer than 2 years, or is in arrears
[April 2, 2001] 30
in an amount greater than $1,000 and not exceeding $10,000;
(2) from $5,000 to $10,000 if the support obligation has
remained unpaid for a period longer than 5 years, or is in arrears
in an amount greater than $10,000 and not exceeding $20,000; or
(3) from $10,000 to $25,000 if the support obligation has
remained unpaid for a period longer than 8 years, or is in arrears
in an amount greater than $20,000.
(e) Restitution shall be ordered in an amount equal to the total
unpaid support obligation as it existed at the time of sentencing. Any
amounts paid by the obligor shall be allocated first to current support
and then to restitution ordered and then to fines imposed under this
Section.
(f) For purposes of this Act, the term "child" shall have the
meaning ascribed to it in Section 505 of the Illinois Marriage and
Dissolution of Marriage Act.

(750 ILCS 16/20)
Sec. 20. Entry of order for support; income withholding.
(a) In a case in which no court or administrative order for support
is in effect against the defendant:
(1) at any time before the trial, upon motion of the State's
Attorney, or of the Attorney General if the action has been
instituted by his office, and upon notice to the defendant, or at
the time of arraignment or as a condition of postponement of
arraignment, the court may enter such temporary order for support
as may seem just, providing for the support or maintenance of the
spouse or child or children of the defendant, or both, pendente
lite; or
(2) before trial with the consent of the defendant, or at the
trial on entry of a plea of guilty, or after conviction, instead of
imposing the penalty provided in this Act, or in addition thereto,
the court may enter an order for support, subject to modification
by the court from time to time as circumstances may require,
directing the defendant to pay a certain sum for maintenance of the
spouse, or for support of the child or children, or both.
(b) The court shall determine the amount of child support by using
the guidelines and standards set forth in subsection (a) of Section 505
and in Section 505.2 of the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of
Marriage Act.
If (i) the non-custodial parent was properly served with a request
for discovery of financial information relating to the non-custodial
parent's ability to provide child support, (ii) the non-custodial
parent failed to comply with the request, despite having been ordered
to do so by the court, and (iii) the non-custodial parent is not
present at the hearing to determine support despite having received
proper notice, then any relevant financial information concerning the
non-custodial parent's ability to provide support that was obtained
pursuant to subpoena and proper notice shall be admitted into evidence
without the need to establish any further foundation for its admission.
(c) The court shall determine the amount of maintenance using the
standards set forth in Section 504 of the Illinois Marriage and
Dissolution of Marriage Act.
(d) The court may, for violation of any order under this Section,
punish the offender as for a contempt of court, but no pendente lite
order shall remain in effect longer than 4 months, or after the
discharge of any panel of jurors summoned for service thereafter in
such court, whichever is sooner.
(e) Any order for support entered by the court under this Section
shall be deemed to be a series of judgments against the person
obligated to pay support under the judgments, each such judgment to be
in the amount of each payment or installment of support and each
judgment to be deemed entered as of the date the corresponding payment
or installment becomes due under the terms of the support order. Each
judgment shall have the full force, effect, and attributes of any other
judgment of this State, including the ability to be enforced. Each
judgment is subject to modification or termination only in accordance
31 [April 2, 2001]
with Section 510 of the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage
Act. A lien arises by operation of law against the real and personal
property of the noncustodial parent for each installment of overdue
support owed by the noncustodial parent.
(f) An order for support entered under this Section shall include a
provision requiring the obligor to report to the obligee and to the
clerk of the court within 10 days each time the obligor obtains new
employment, and each time the obligor's employment is terminated for
any reason. The report shall be in writing and shall, in the case of
new employment, include the name and address of the new employer.
Failure to report new employment or the termination of current
employment, if coupled with nonpayment of support for a period in
excess of 60 days, is indirect criminal contempt. For any obligor
arrested for failure to report new employment, bond shall be set in the
amount of the child support that should have been paid during the
period of unreported employment.
An order for support entered under this Section shall also include
a provision requiring the obligor and obligee parents to advise each
other of a change in residence within 5 days of the change except when
the court finds that the physical, mental, or emotional health of a
party or of a minor child, or both, would be seriously endangered by
disclosure of the party's address.
(g) An order for support entered or modified in a case in which a
party is receiving child and spouse support services under Article X of
the Illinois Public Aid Code shall include a provision requiring the
noncustodial parent to notify the Illinois Department of Public Aid,
within 7 days, of the name and address of any new employer of the
noncustodial parent, whether the noncustodial parent has access to
health insurance coverage through the employer or other group coverage
and, if so, the policy name and number and the names of persons covered
under the policy.
(h) In any subsequent action to enforce an order for support
entered under this Act, upon sufficient showing that diligent effort
has been made to ascertain the location of the noncustodial parent,
service of process or provision of notice necessary in that action may
be made at the last known address of the noncustodial parent, in any
manner expressly provided by the Code of Civil Procedure or in this
Act, which service shall be sufficient for purposes of due process.
(i) An order for support shall include a date on which the current
support obligation terminates. The termination date shall be no
earlier than the date on which the child covered by the order will
attain the age of 18. However, if the child will not graduate from
high school until after attaining the age of 18, then the termination
date shall be no earlier than the earlier of the date on which the
child's high school graduation will occur or the date on which the
child will attain the age of 19 majority or is otherwise emancipated.
The order for support shall state that the termination date does not
apply to any arrearage that may remain unpaid on that date. Nothing in
this subsection shall be construed to prevent the court from modifying
the order.
(Source: P.A. 91-613, eff. 10-1-99; 91-767, eff. 6-9-00.)
Section 20. The Illinois Parentage Act of 1984 is amended by
changing Section 14 as follows:
(750 ILCS 45/14) (from Ch. 40, par. 2514)
Sec. 14. Judgment.
(a) (1) The judgment shall contain or explicitly reserve
provisions concerning any duty and amount of child support and may
contain provisions concerning the custody and guardianship of the
child, visitation privileges with the child, the furnishing of bond or
other security for the payment of the judgment, which the court shall
determine in accordance with the relevant factors set forth in the
Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act and any other
applicable law of Illinois, to guide the court in a finding in the best
interests of the child. In determining custody, joint custody, or
visitation, the court shall apply the relevant standards of the
Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act. Specifically, in
[April 2, 2001] 32
determining the amount of any child support award, the court shall use
the guidelines and standards set forth in subsection (a) of Section 505
and in Section 505.2 of the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of
Marriage Act. For purposes of Section 505 of the Illinois Marriage and
Dissolution of Marriage Act, "net income" of the non-custodial parent
shall include any benefits available to that person under the Illinois
Public Aid Code or from other federal, State or local government-funded
programs. The court shall, in any event and regardless of the amount
of the non-custodial parent's net income, in its judgment order the
non-custodial parent to pay child support to the custodial parent in a
minimum amount of not less than $10 per month. In an action brought
within 2 years after a child's birth, the judgment or order may direct
either parent to pay the reasonable expenses incurred by either parent
related to the mother's pregnancy and the delivery of the child. The
judgment or order shall contain the father's social security number,
which the father shall disclose to the court; however, failure to
include the father's social security number on the judgment or order
does not invalidate the judgment or order.
(2) If a judgment of parentage contains no explicit award of
custody, the establishment of a support obligation or of visitation
rights in one parent shall be considered a judgment granting custody to
the other parent. If the parentage judgment contains no such
provisions, custody shall be presumed to be with the mother; however,
the presumption shall not apply if the father has had physical custody
for at least 6 months prior to the date that the mother seeks to
enforce custodial rights.
(b) The court shall order all child support payments, determined
in accordance with such guidelines, to commence with the date summons
is served. The level of current periodic support payments shall not be
reduced because of payments set for the period prior to the date of
entry of the support order. The Court may order any child support
payments to be made for a period prior to the commencement of the
action. In determining whether and the extent to which the payments
shall be made for any prior period, the court shall consider all
relevant facts, including the factors for determining the amount of
support specified in the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage
Act and other equitable factors including but not limited to:
(1) The father's prior knowledge of the fact and
circumstances of the child's birth.
(2) The father's prior willingness or refusal to help raise
or support the child.
(3) The extent to which the mother or the public agency
bringing the action previously informed the father of the child's
needs or attempted to seek or require his help in raising or
supporting the child.
(4) The reasons the mother or the public agency did not file
the action earlier.
(5) The extent to which the father would be prejudiced by the
delay in bringing the action.
For purposes of determining the amount of child support to be paid
for any period before the date the order for current child support is
entered, there is a rebuttable presumption that the father's net income
for the prior period was the same as his net income at the time the
order for current child support is entered.
If (i) the non-custodial parent was properly served with a request
for discovery of financial information relating to the non-custodial
parent's ability to provide child support, (ii) the non-custodial
parent failed to comply with the request, despite having been ordered
to do so by the court, and (iii) the non-custodial parent is not
present at the hearing to determine support despite having received
proper notice, then any relevant financial information concerning the
non-custodial parent's ability to provide child support that was
obtained pursuant to subpoena and proper notice shall be admitted into
evidence without the need to establish any further foundation for its
admission.
(c) Any new or existing support order entered by the court under
33 [April 2, 2001]
this Section shall be deemed to be a series of judgments against the
person obligated to pay support thereunder, each judgment to be in the
amount of each payment or installment of support and each such judgment
to be deemed entered as of the date the corresponding payment or
installment becomes due under the terms of the support order. Each
judgment shall have the full force, effect and attributes of any other
judgment of this State, including the ability to be enforced. A lien
arises by operation of law against the real and personal property of
the noncustodial parent for each installment of overdue support owed by
the noncustodial parent.
(d) If the judgment or order of the court is at variance with the
child's birth certificate, the court shall order that a new birth
certificate be issued under the Vital Records Act.
(e) On request of the mother and the father, the court shall order
a change in the child's name. After hearing evidence the court may stay
payment of support during the period of the father's minority or period
of disability.
(f) If, upon a showing of proper service, the father fails to
appear in court, or otherwise appear as provided by law, the court may
proceed to hear the cause upon testimony of the mother or other parties
taken in open court and shall enter a judgment by default. The court
may reserve any order as to the amount of child support until the
father has received notice, by regular mail, of a hearing on the
matter.
(g) A one-time charge of 20% is imposable upon the amount of
past-due child support owed on July 1, 1988 which has accrued under a
support order entered by the court. The charge shall be imposed in
accordance with the provisions of Section 10-21 of the Illinois Public
Aid Code and shall be enforced by the court upon petition.
(h) All orders for support, when entered or modified, shall
include a provision requiring the non-custodial parent to notify the
court and, in cases in which party is receiving child and spouse
support services under Article X of the Illinois Public Aid Code, the
Illinois Department of Public Aid, within 7 days, (i) of the name and
address of any new employer of the non-custodial parent, (ii) whether
the non-custodial parent has access to health insurance coverage
through the employer or other group coverage and, if so, the policy
name and number and the names of persons covered under the policy, and
(iii) of any new residential or mailing address or telephone number of
the non-custodial parent. In any subsequent action to enforce a
support order, upon a sufficient showing that a diligent effort has
been made to ascertain the location of the non-custodial parent,
service of process or provision of notice necessary in the case may be
made at the last known address of the non-custodial parent in any
manner expressly provided by the Code of Civil Procedure or this Act,
which service shall be sufficient for purposes of due process.
(i) An order for support shall include a date on which the current
support obligation terminates. The termination date shall be no
earlier than the date on which the child covered by the order will
attain the age of 18. However, if the child will not graduate from
high school until after attaining the age of 18, then the termination
date shall be no earlier than the earlier of the date on which the
child's high school graduation will occur or the date on which the
child will attain the age of 19 majority or is otherwise emancipated.
The order for support shall state that the termination date does not
apply to any arrearage that may remain unpaid on that date. Nothing in
this subsection shall be construed to prevent the court from modifying
the order.
(j) An order entered under this Section shall include a provision
requiring the obligor to report to the obligee and to the clerk of
court within 10 days each time the obligor obtains new employment, and
each time the obligor's employment is terminated for any reason. The
report shall be in writing and shall, in the case of new employment,
include the name and address of the new employer. Failure to report
new employment or the termination of current employment, if coupled
with nonpayment of support for a period in excess of 60 days, is
[April 2, 2001] 34
indirect criminal contempt. For any obligor arrested for failure to
report new employment bond shall be set in the amount of the child
support that should have been paid during the period of unreported
employment. An order entered under this Section shall also include a
provision requiring the obligor and obligee parents to advise each
other of a change in residence within 5 days of the change except when
the court finds that the physical, mental, or emotional health of a
party or that of a minor child, or both, would be seriously endangered
by disclosure of the party's address.

"Section 5. The School Code is amended by changing Section 21-9 as
follows:
(105 ILCS 5/21-9) (from Ch. 122, par. 21-9)
Sec. 21-9. Substitute certificates and substitute teaching.
(a) A substitute teacher's certificate may be issued for teaching
in all grades of the common schools. Such certificate may be issued
upon request of the regional superintendent of schools of any region
in which the teacher is to teach. A substitute teacher's certificate
is valid for teaching in the public schools of any county. Such
certificate may be issued to persons who either (a) hold a certificate
valid for teaching in the common schools as shown on the face of the
certificate, (b) hold a bachelor of arts degree from an institution of
higher learning accredited by the North Central Association or other
comparable regional accrediting association or have been graduated from
a recognized institution of higher learning with a bachelor's degree,
or (c) have had 2 years of teaching experience and meet such other
rules and regulations as may be adopted by the State Board of Education
in consultation with the State Teacher Certification Board. Such
certificate shall expire on June 30 in the fourth year from date of
issue. Substitute teacher's certificates are not subject to
endorsement as described in Section 21-1b of this Code.
(b) A teacher holding a substitute teacher's certificate may teach
only in the place of a certified teacher who is under contract with the
employing board and may teach only when no appropriate fully certified
teacher is available to teach in a substitute capacity. A teacher
holding an early childhood certificate, an elementary certificate, a
high school certificate, or a special certificate may also substitute
teach in grades K-12 but only in the place of a certified teacher who
is under contract with the employing board. A substitute teacher may
teach only for a period not to exceed 90 paid school days or 450 paid
school hours in any one school district in any one school term.
However, for the 2001-2002, 2002-2003, and 2003-2004 school years, a
teacher holding an early childhood, elementary, high school, or special
certificate may substitute teach for a period not to exceed 120 paid
school days or 600 paid school hours in any one school district in any
one school term. Where such teaching is partly on a daily and partly on
an hourly basis, a school day shall be considered as 5 hours. The
teaching limitations imposed by this subsection upon teachers holding
substitute certificates shall not apply in any school district
operating under Article 34.

AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO HOUSE BILL 3162
AMENDMENT NO. 2. Amend House Bill 3162 by replacing everything
after the enacting clause with the following:
"Section 5. The Liquor Control Act of 1934 is amended by changing
Section 6-16 and 6-16.1 as follows:
(235 ILCS 5/6-16) (from Ch. 43, par. 131)
Sec. 6-16. Prohibited sales and possession.
(a) (i) No licensee nor any officer, associate, member,
representative, agent, or employee of such licensee shall sell, give,
or deliver alcoholic liquor to any person under the age of 21 years or
to any intoxicated person, except as provided in Section 6-16.1. (ii)
No express company, common carrier, or contract carrier that carries or
transports alcoholic liquor for delivery within this State shall
knowingly give or knowingly deliver to a residential address any
shipping container clearly labeled as containing alcoholic liquor and
labeled as requiring signature of an adult of at least 21 years of age
to any person in this State under the age of 21 years. An express
company, common carrier, or contract carrier that carries or transports
such alcoholic liquor for delivery within this State shall obtain a
signature acknowledging receipt of the alcoholic liquor by an adult who
is at least 21 years of age. (iii) No person, after purchasing or
43 [April 2, 2001]
otherwise obtaining alcoholic liquor, shall sell, give, or deliver such
alcoholic liquor to another person under the age of 21 years, except in
the performance of a religious ceremony or service. Any person who
violates the provisions of item (i), (ii), or (iii) of this paragraph
of this subsection (a) is guilty of a Class A misdemeanor and the
person's sentence shall include, but shall not be limited to, a fine of
not less than $500.
If a licensee or officer, associate, member, representative, agent,
or employee of the licensee, or a representative, agent, or employee of
an express company, common carrier, or contract carrier that carries or
transports alcoholic liquor for delivery within this State, is
prosecuted under this paragraph of this subsection (a) for selling,
giving, or delivering alcoholic liquor to a person under the age of 21
years, the person under 21 years of age who attempted to buy or receive
the alcoholic liquor may be prosecuted pursuant to Section 6-20 of this
Act, unless the person under 21 years of age was acting under the
authority of a law enforcement agency, the Illinois Liquor Control
Commission, or a local liquor control commissioner pursuant to a plan
or action to investigate, patrol, or conduct any similar enforcement
action.
For the purpose of preventing the violation of this Section, any
licensee, or his agent or employee, or a representative, agent, or
employee of an express company, common carrier, or contract carrier
that carries or transports alcoholic liquor for delivery within this
State, shall may refuse to sell, deliver, or serve alcoholic beverages
to any person who is unable to produce adequate written evidence of
identity and of the fact that he or she is over the age of 21 years, if
requested by the licensee, agent, employee, or representative.
Adequate written evidence of age and identity of the person is a
document issued by a federal, state, county, or municipal government,
or subdivision or agency thereof, including, but not limited to, a
motor vehicle operator's license, a registration certificate issued
under the Federal Selective Service Act, or an identification card
issued to a member of the Armed Forces. Proof that the
defendant-licensee, or his employee or agent, or the representative,
agent, or employee of the express company, common carrier, or contract
carrier that carries or transports alcoholic liquor for delivery within
this State demanded, was shown and reasonably relied upon such written
evidence in any transaction forbidden by this Section is an affirmative
defense in any criminal prosecution therefor or to any proceedings for
the suspension or revocation of any license based thereon. It shall
not, however, be an affirmative defense if the agent or employee
accepted the written evidence knowing it to be false or fraudulent. If
a false or fraudulent Illinois driver's license or Illinois
identification card is presented by a person less than 21 years of age
to a licensee or the licensee's agent or employee for the purpose of
ordering, purchasing, attempting to purchase, or otherwise obtaining or
attempting to obtain the serving of any alcoholic beverage, the law
enforcement officer or agency investigating the incident shall, upon
the conviction of the person who presented the fraudulent license or
identification, make a report of the matter to the Secretary of State
on a form provided by the Secretary of State.
However, no agent or employee of the licensee shall be disciplined
or discharged for selling or furnishing liquor to a person under 21
years of age if the agent or employee demanded and was shown, before
furnishing liquor to a person under 21 years of age, adequate written
evidence of age and identity of the person issued by a federal, state,
county or municipal government, or subdivision or agency thereof,
including but not limited to a motor vehicle operator's license, a
registration certificate issued under the Federal Selective Service
Act, or an identification card issued to a member of the Armed Forces.
This paragraph, however, shall not apply if the agent or employee
accepted the written evidence knowing it to be false or fraudulent.
Any person who sells, gives, or furnishes to any person under the
age of 21 years any false or fraudulent written, printed, or
photostatic evidence of the age and identity of such person or who
[April 2, 2001] 44
sells, gives or furnishes to any person under the age of 21 years
evidence of age and identification of any other person is guilty of a
Class A misdemeanor and the person's sentence shall include, but shall
not be limited to, a fine of not less than $500.
Any person under the age of 21 years who presents or offers to any
licensee, his agent or employee, any written, printed or photostatic
evidence of age and identity that is false, fraudulent, or not actually
his or her own for the purpose of ordering, purchasing, attempting to
purchase or otherwise procuring or attempting to procure, the serving
of any alcoholic beverage, who falsely states in writing that he or she
is at least 21 years of age when receiving alcoholic liquor from a
representative, agent, or employee of an express company, common
carrier, or contract carrier, or who has in his or her possession any
false or fraudulent written, printed, or photostatic evidence of age
and identity, is guilty of a Class A misdemeanor and the person's
sentence shall include, but shall not be limited to, the following: a
fine of not less than $500 and at least 25 hours of community service.
If possible, any community service shall be performed for an alcohol
abuse prevention program.
Any person under the age of 21 years who has any alcoholic beverage
in his or her possession on any street or highway or in any public
place or in any place open to the public is guilty of a Class A
misdemeanor. This Section does not apply to possession by a person
under the age of 21 years making a delivery of an alcoholic beverage in
pursuance of the order of his or her parent or in pursuance of his or
her employment.
(a-1) It is unlawful for any parent or guardian to permit his or
her residence to be used by an invitee of the parent's child or the
guardian's ward, if the invitee is under the age of 21, in a manner
that constitutes a violation of this Section. A parent or guardian is
deemed to have permitted his or her residence to be used in violation
of this Section if he or she knowingly authorizes, enables, or permits
such use to occur by failing to control access to either the residence
or the alcoholic liquor maintained in the residence. Any person who
violates this subsection (a-1) is guilty of a Class A misdemeanor and
the person's sentence shall include, but shall not be limited to, a
fine of not less than $500. Nothing in this subsection (a-1) shall be
construed to prohibit the giving of alcoholic liquor to a person under
the age of 21 years in the performance of a religious ceremony or
service.
(b) Except as otherwise provided in this Section whoever violates
this Section shall, in addition to other penalties provided for in this
Act, be guilty of a Class A misdemeanor.
(c) Any person shall be guilty of a Class A misdemeanor where he
or she knowingly permits a gathering at a residence which he or she
occupies of two or more persons where any one or more of the persons is
under 21 years of age and the following factors also apply:
(1) the person occupying the residence knows that any such
person under the age of 21 is in possession of or is consuming any
alcoholic beverage; and
(2) the possession or consumption of the alcohol by the
person under 21 is not otherwise permitted by this Act; and
(3) the person occupying the residence knows that the person
under the age of 21 leaves the residence in an intoxicated
condition.
For the purposes of this subsection (c) where the residence has an
owner and a tenant or lessee, there is a rebuttable presumption that
the residence is occupied only by the tenant or lessee.
(d) Any person who rents a hotel or motel room from the proprietor
or agent thereof for the purpose of or with the knowledge that such
room shall be used for the consumption of alcoholic liquor by persons
under the age of 21 years shall be guilty of a Class A misdemeanor.

Sec. 6-16.1. Enforcement actions.
45 [April 2, 2001]
(a) A licensee or an officer, associate, member, representative,
agent, or employee of a licensee may sell, give, or deliver alcoholic
liquor to a person under the age of 21 years or authorize the sale,
gift, or delivery of alcoholic liquor to a person under the age of 21
years pursuant to a plan or action to investigate, patrol, or otherwise
conduct a "sting operation" or enforcement action against a person
employed by the licensee or on any licensed premises if the licensee or
officer, associate, member, representative, agent, or employee of the
licensee provides written notice, at least 14 days before the "sting
operation" or enforcement action, unless governing body of the
municipality or county having jurisdiction sets a shorter period by
ordinance, to the law enforcement agency having jurisdiction, the local
liquor control commissioner, or both. Notice provided under this
Section shall be valid for a "sting operation" or enforcement action
conducted within 60 days of the provision of that notice, unless the
governing body of the municipality or county having jurisdiction sets a
shorter period by ordinance.
(b) A local liquor control commission or unit of local government
that conducts alcohol and tobacco compliance operations shall establish
a policy and standards for alcohol and tobacco compliance operations to
investigate whether a licensee is furnishing (1) alcoholic liquor to
persons under 21 years of age in violation of this Act or (2) tobacco
to persons in violation of the Sale of Tobacco to Minors Act.
(c) The Illinois Law Enforcement Training Standards Board shall
develop a model policy and guidelines for the operation of alcohol and
tobacco compliance checks by local law enforcement officers. The
Illinois Law Enforcement Training Standards Board shall also require
the supervising officers of such compliance checks to have met a
minimum training standard as determined by the Board. The Board shall
have the right to waive any training based on current written policies
and procedures for alcohol and tobacco compliance check operations and
in-service training already administered by the local law enforcement
agency, department, or office.
(d) The provisions of subsections (b) and (c) do not apply to a
home rule unit with more than 2,000,000 inhabitants.
(e) A home rule unit, other than a home rule unit with more than
2,000,000 inhabitants, may not regulate enforcement actions in a manner
inconsistent with the regulation of enforcement actions under this
Section. This subsection (e) is a limitation under subsection (i) of
Section 6 of Article VII of the Illinois Constitution on the concurrent
exercise by home rule units of powers and functions exercised by the
State.

HOUSE BILL 16. Having been printed, was taken up and read by title
a second time.
Representative Granberg offered the following amendment and moved
its adoption:
AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO HOUSE BILL 16
AMENDMENT NO. 1. Amend House Bill 16 by replacing the title with
the following:
"AN ACT in relation to aging."; and
by replacing everything after the enacting clause with the following:
"Section 1. Short title. This Act may be cited as the Family
[April 2, 2001] 46
Caregiver Act.
Section 5. Legislative findings. The General Assembly recognizes
the following:
(1) Family caregivers, serving without compensation, have
been the mainstay of the long-term care system in this country.
Care provided by these informal caregivers is the most crucial
factor in avoiding or postponing institutionalization of the
State's residents.
(2) Among non-institutionalized persons needing assistance
with personal care needs, two-thirds depend solely on family and
friends for assistance. Another 25% supplement family care with
services from paid providers. Only a little more than 5% rely
exclusively on paid services.
(3) Family caregivers are frequently under substantial
physical, psychological, and financial stress. Unrelieved by
support services available to the caregiver, this stress may lead
to premature or unnecessary institutionalization of the care
recipient or deterioration in the health condition and family
circumstances of the caregiver.
(4) Two out of 3 family caregivers, due to being employed
outside the home, experience additional stress. Two-thirds of
working caregivers report conflicts between work and caregiving,
requiring them to rearrange their work schedules, work fewer than
normal hours, or take an unpaid leave of absence. For this
population, caregiver support services have the added benefit of
allowing family caregivers to remain active members of our State's
workforce.
Section 10. Legislative intent. It is the intent of the General
Assembly to establish a multi-faceted family caregiver support program
to assist unpaid family caregivers, who are informal providers of
in-home and community care to frail individuals or children.
Services provided under this program shall do the following:
(1) Provide information, relief, and support to family and
other unpaid caregivers of frail individuals.
(2) Encourage family members to provide care for their family
members who are frail individuals.
(3) Provide temporary substitute support services or living
arrangements to allow a period of relief or rest for caregivers.
(4) Be provided in the least restrictive setting available
consistent with the individually assessed needs of the frail
individual.
(5) Include services appropriate to the needs of family
members caring for the frail individual, including a frail
individual with dementia.
(6) Provide family caregivers with services that enable them
to make informed decisions about current and future care plans,
solve day-to-day caregiving problems, learn essential care giving
skills, and locate services that may strengthen their capacity to
provide care.
Section 15. Definitions. In this Act:
"Child" or "children" means an individual or individuals 18 years
of age or under.
"Department" means the Department on Aging.

(4) Respite care provided to a frail individual that will
enable caregivers to be temporarily relieved from their caregiving

(5) Supplemental services, on a limited basis, to complement
the care provided by the caregivers.
(6) Other services as identified by the Department and
defined by rule.

perform from at least 2 activities of daily living without substantial
human assistance, including verbal reminding, physical cueing, or

requires substantial supervision because the individual behaves in a
manner that poses a serious health or safety hazard to the individual
or to another individual.

a grandparent or step-grandparent of a child, or a relative of a child
by blood or marriage, who is 60 years of age or older and who:

older.

provided on an intermittent, occasional basis. The term includes, but
is not limited to, in-home respite care, adult day care, child care,

extent of the availability and level of appropriations made by the
General Assembly.

Section 90. The Respite Program Act is amended by changing
[April 2, 2001] 48
Sections 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 11, and 12 as follows:
(320 ILCS 10/1.5) (from Ch. 23, par. 6201.5)
Sec. 1.5. Purpose. It is hereby found and determined by the
General Assembly that respite care provides relief and support to the
primary care-giver of a frail or abused or functionally disabled or
cognitively impaired older adult and provides by providing a break for
the caregiver from the continuous responsibilities of care-giving.
Without this support, the primary care-giver's ability to continue in
his or her role would be jeopardized; thereby increasing the risk of
institutionalization of the frail or abused or functionally disabled or
cognitively impaired older adult.
By providing improving and expanding the in-home respite care
services currently available through intermittent planned or emergency
relief to the care-giver during the regular week-day, evening, and
weekend hours, both the special physical and psychological needs of the
primary care-giver and the frail or abused or functionally disabled, or
cognitively impaired older adult, who is the recipient of continuous
care, shall be met reducing or preventing the need for
institutionalization.
Furthermore, the primary care-giver providing continuous care is
frequently under substantial financial stress. Respite care and other
supportive services sustain and preserve the primary care-giver and
family caregiving unit. It is the intent of the General Assembly that
this amendatory Act of 1992 ensure that Illinois primary care-givers of
frail or abused or functionally disabled or cognitively impaired older
adults have access to affordable, appropriate in-home respite care
services.
(Source: P.A. 87-974.)
(320 ILCS 10/2) (from Ch. 23, par. 6202)
Sec. 2. Definitions. As used in this Act:
(1) "Respite care" means the provision of intermittent and
temporary substitute care or supervision of frail or abused or
functionally disabled or cognitively impaired older adults on behalf of
and in the absence of the primary care-giver, for the purpose of
providing relief from the stress or responsibilities concomitant with
providing constant care, so as to enable the care-giver to continue the
provision of care in the home. Respite care should be available to
sustain the primary care-giver throughout the period of care-giving,
which can vary from several months to a number of years. Respite care
can be provided in the home, in a community based day care setting
during the day, overnight, in a substitute residential setting such as
a long-term care facility required to be licensed under the Nursing
Home Care Act or the Assisted Living and Shared Housing Act, or for
more extended periods of time on a temporary basis.
(1.5) "In-home respite care" means care provided by an
appropriately trained paid worker providing short-term intermittent
care, supervision, or companionship to the frail or disabled adult in
the home while relieving the care-giver, by permitting a short-term
break from the care-giver's care-giving role. This support may
contribute to the delay, reduction, and prevention of
institutionalization by enabling the care-giver to continue in his or
her care-giving role. In-home respite care should be flexible and
available in a manner that is responsive to the needs of the
care-giver. This may consist of evening respite care services that are
available from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m. Monday through Friday and weekend
respite care services from 6:00 p.m. Friday to 8:00 a.m. Monday.
(2) "Care-giver" shall mean the family member or other natural
person who normally provides the daily care or supervision of a frail,
abused or disabled elderly adult. Such care-giver may, but need not,
reside in the same household as the frail or disabled adult.
(3) (Blank). "Provider" shall mean any entity enumerated in
paragraph (1) of this Section which is the supplier of services
providing respite.
(4) (Blank). "Sponsor" shall mean the provider, public agency or
community group approved by the Director which establishes a
contractual relationship with the Department for the purposes of
49 [April 2, 2001]
providing services to persons under this Act, and which is responsible
for the recruitment of providers, the coordination and arrangement of
provider services in a manner which meets client needs, the general
supervision of the local program, and the submission of such
information or reports as may be required by the Director.
(5) (Blank). "Director" shall mean the Director on Aging.
(6) "Department" shall mean the Department on Aging.
(7) (Blank). "Abused" shall have the same meaning ascribed to it
in Section 103 of the Illinois Domestic Violence Act of 1986.
(8) "Frail or disabled adult" shall mean any person suffering from
Alzheimer's disease and who is 60 55 years of age or older and or any
adult 60 years of age or older, who either (i) suffers from Alzheimer's
disease or a related disorder or (ii) is unable to attend to his or her
daily needs without the assistance or regular supervision of a
care-giver due to mental or physical impairment and who is otherwise
eligible for services on the basis of his or her level of impairment.
(9) "Emergency respite care" means the immediate placement of a
trained, in-home respite care worker in the home during an emergency or
unplanned event, or during a temporary placement outside the home, to
substitute for the primary care-giver. Emergency respite care may be
provided in the home on one or more occasions unless an extension is
deemed necessary by the case coordination unit. When there is an
urgent need for emergency respite care, procedures to accommodate this
need must be determined. An emergency is:
(a) An unplanned event that results in the immediate and
unavoidable absence of the primary care-giver from the home in an
excess of 4 hours at a time when no other qualified care-giver is
available.
(b) An unplanned situation that prevents the primary
care-giver from providing the care required by a frail or abused or
functionally disabled or cognitively impaired adult living at home.
(c) An unplanned event that threatens the health and safety
of the frail or disabled adult.
(d) An unplanned event that threatens the health and safety
of the primary care-giver thereby placing the frail or abused or
functionally disabled or cognitively impaired older adult in
danger.
(10) (Blank). "Primary care-giver" means the spouse, relative, or
friend, 18 years of age or older, who provides the daily in-home care
and supervision of a frail or abused or functionally disabled or
cognitively impaired older adult. A primary care-giver may, but does
not need to, reside in the same household as the frail or abused or
functionally disabled or cognitively impaired adult. A primary
care-giver requires intermittent relief from their caregiving duties to
continue to function as the primary care-giver.

Section 5. Legislative intent. The General Assembly recognizes
that the Mobile Telecommunications Sourcing Act, Public Law 106-252,
codified at 4 U.S.C Sections 116 through 126, was passed by the United
States Congress to establish sourcing requirements for state and local
taxation of mobile telecommunication services. In general, the rules
provide that taxes on mobile telecommunications services shall be
collected and remitted to the jurisdiction where the customer's primary
use of the services occurs, irrespective of where the mobile
telecommunications services originate, terminate, or pass through. By
passing this legislation in the State of Illinois, the General Assembly
[April 2, 2001] 52
desires to implement that Act in this State by establishing the Mobile
Telecommunications Sourcing Conformity Act and to inform State and
local government officials of its provisions as it applies to the taxes

primarily occurs, which must be:
(i) the residential street address or the primary business
street address of the customer; and

provider.
"Prepaid telephone calling services" means the right to purchase
exclusively telecommunications services that must be paid for in

if the remaining amount of units of service that have been prepaid is
known by the provider of the prepaid service on a continuous basis.
"Reseller" means a provider who purchases telecommunications
services from another telecommunications service provider and then
resells, uses as a component part of, or integrates the purchased

shall apply as follows:
(a) General provisions. This Act shall apply to any tax, charge,
or fee levied by the State or a taxing jurisdiction within this State
as a fixed charge for each customer or measured by gross amounts

mobile telecommunication services;
(4) any generally applicable business and occupation tax that
is imposed by a State, is applied to gross receipts or gross
proceeds, is the legal liability of the home service provider, and

prepaid telephone calling services;
(2) do not affect the taxability of either the initial sale
of mobile telecommunications services or subsequent resale of such

bundled product, if the federal Internet Tax Freedom Act would
preclude a taxing jurisdiction from subjecting the charges of the
sale of such services to a tax, charge, or fee, but this Section
provides no evidence of the intent of the General Assembly with
respect to the applicability of the federal Internet Tax Freedom
Act to such charges; and
(3) do not apply to the determination of the taxing situs of
air-ground radiotelephone service as defined in section 22.99 of
title 47 of the Code of Federal Regulations as in effect on June 1,
1999.
(d) Date of applicability. The provisions of this Act apply to
customer bills issued on or after August 1, 2002.
Section 20. Sourcing rules for mobile telecommunications services.
(a) Notwithstanding the law of this State or any political
subdivision of this State, mobile telecommunications services provided
in a taxing jurisdiction to a customer, the charges for which are
billed by or for the customer's home service provider, shall be deemed
to be provided by the customer's home service provider.
(b) All charges for mobile telecommunications services that are
deemed to be provided by the customer's home service provider under
this Act are authorized to be subjected to tax, charge, or fee by the
taxing jurisdictions whose territorial limits encompass the customer's
place of primary use, regardless of where the mobile telecommunication
[April 2, 2001] 54
services originate, terminate, or pass through, and no other taxing
jurisdiction may impose taxes, charges, or fees on charges for such
mobile telecommunications services.
Section 25. Provision of electronic database.
(a) The State may provide an electronic database to a home service
provider or, if the State does not provide such an electronic database
to home service providers, then the designated database provider may
provide an electronic database to a home service provider.
(b) The electronic database, whether provided by the State or the
designated database provider, shall:
(1) be provided in a format approved by the American National
Standards Institute's Accredited Standards Committee X12, that,
allowing for de minimis deviations, designates for each street
address in the State, including to the extent practical, any
multiple postal street addresses applicable to one street location,
the appropriate taxing jurisdictions, and the appropriate code for
each taxing jurisdiction, for each level of taxing jurisdiction,
identified by one nationwide standard numeric code described in
subsection (c); and
(2) also provide the appropriate code for each street address
with respect to political subdivisions that are not taxing
jurisdictions when reasonably needed to determine the proper taxing
jurisdiction.
(c) The nationwide standard numeric codes shall contain the same
number of numeric digits with each digit or combination of digits
referring to the same level of taxing jurisdiction throughout the
United States using a format similar to FIPS 55-3 or other appropriate
standard approved by the Federation of Tax Administrators and the
Multistate Tax Commission, or their successors. Each address shall be
provided in standard postal format.
Section 30. Notice; updates. If the State or a designated
database provider provides or maintains an electronic database
described in Section 25, then the State or the electronic database
provider shall provide notice of the availability of the then current
electronic database, and any subsequent revisions thereof, by
publication in the manner normally employed for the publication of
informational tax, charge, or fee notices to taxpayers in the State.
Section 35. User held harmless. A home service provider using the
data contained in an electronic database described in Section 25 shall
be held harmless from any tax, charge, or fee liability that otherwise
would be due solely as a result of any error or omission in the
database provided by the State or designated database provider. The
home service provider shall reflect changes made to the database during
a calendar quarter not later than 30 days after the end of the calendar
quarter if the State or an electronic database provider issues notice
of the availability of an electronic database reflecting the changes
under Section 30.
Section 40. Safe harbor.
(a) If neither the State nor a designated database provider
provides an electronic database under Section 25, a home service
provider shall be held harmless from any tax, charge, or fee liability
that otherwise would be due solely as a result of an assignment of a
street address to an incorrect taxing jurisdiction if, subject to
Section 60, the home service provider employs an enhanced zip code to
assign each street address to a specific taxing jurisdiction for each
level of taxing jurisdiction and exercises due diligence at each level
of taxing jurisdiction to ensure that each such street address is
assigned to the correct taxing jurisdiction. If an enhanced zip code
overlaps boundaries of taxing jurisdictions of the same level, the home
service provider must designate one specific jurisdiction within the
enhanced zip code for use in taxing the activity for the enhanced zip
code for each level of taxing jurisdiction. Any enhanced zip code
assignment changed in accordance with Section 60 is deemed to be in
compliance with this Section.
(b) For purposes of this Section, there is a rebuttable
presumption that a home service provider has exercised due diligence if
55 [April 2, 2001]
the home service provider demonstrates that it has:
(1) expended reasonable resources to implement and maintain
an appropriately detailed electronic database of street address
assignments to taxing jurisdictions;
(2) implemented and maintained reasonable internal controls
to promptly correct misassignments of street addresses to taxing
jurisdictions; and
(3) used all reasonably obtainable and usable data pertaining
to municipal annexations, incorporations, reorganizations, and any
other changes in jurisdictional boundaries that materially affect
the accuracy of the database.
Section 45. Termination of safe harbor. Section 40 applies to a
home service provider that is in compliance with the requirements of
Section 40 until the later of:
(1) Eighteen months after the nationwide standard numeric code
described in Section 25 has been approved by the Federation of Tax
Administrators and the Multistate Tax Commission; or
(2) Six months after the State or a designated database provider
in the State provides such database as prescribed in Section 25.
Section 50. Home service provider required to obtain and maintain
customer's place of primary use. A home service provider shall be
responsible for obtaining and maintaining the customer's place of
primary use, as defined in this Act. Subject to Section 60, and if the
home service provider's reliance on information provided by its
customer is in good faith, a taxing jurisdiction shall:
(1) allow a home service provider to rely on the applicable
residential or business street address supplied by the home service
provider's customer; and
(2) not hold a home service provider liable for any additional
taxes, charges, or fees based on a different determination of the place
of primary use for taxes, charges, or fees that are customarily passed
on to the customer as a separate itemized charge.
Section 55. Primary place of use for service contracts in effect
on or before July 28, 2002. Except as provided in Section 60, a taxing
jurisdiction shall allow a home service provider to treat the address
used by the home service provider for tax purposes for any customer
under a service contract or agreement in effect on or before July 28,
2002 as that customer's place of primary use for the remaining term of
the service contract or agreement, excluding any extension or renewal
of the service contract or agreement, for purposes of determining the
taxing jurisdictions to which taxes, charges, or fees on charges for
mobile telecommunications services are remitted.
Section 60. Determination by taxing jurisdiction or State
concerning place of primary use; notice to home service provider. A
taxing jurisdiction or the State, on behalf of any taxing jurisdiction
or taxing jurisdictions within this State, may:
(a) determine that the address used for purposes of determining
the taxing jurisdictions to which taxes, charges, or fees for mobile
telecommunications services are remitted does not meet the definition
of place of primary use in this Act and give binding notice to the home
service provider to change the place of primary use on a prospective
basis from the date of notice of determination if:
(1) the taxing jurisdiction obtains the consent of all
affected taxing jurisdictions within the State before giving the
notice of determination (if the taxing jurisdiction making the
determination is not the State); and
(2) before the taxing jurisdiction gives the notice of
determination, the customer is given an opportunity to demonstrate
in accordance with applicable State or local tax, charge, or fee
administrative procedures that the address is the customer's place
of primary use;
(b) determine that the assignment of a taxing jurisdiction by a
home service provider under Section 40 does not reflect the correct
taxing jurisdiction and give binding notice to the home service
provider to change the assignment on a prospective basis from the date
of notice of determination if:
[April 2, 2001] 56
(1) the taxing jurisdiction obtains the consent of all
affected taxing jurisdictions within the State before giving the
notice of determination (if the taxing jurisdiction making the
determination is not the State); and
(2) the home service provider is given an opportunity to
demonstrate in accordance with applicable State or local tax,
charge, or fee administrative procedures that the assignment
reflects the correct taxing jurisdiction.
Section 65. No change to authority of taxing jurisdiction to
collect tax if customer fails to provide place of primary use. Nothing
in this Act modifies, impairs, supersedes, or authorizes the
modification, impairment, or supersession of, any law allowing a taxing
jurisdiction to collect a tax, charge, or fee from a customer that has
failed to provide its place of primary use.
Section 70. Tax may be imposed on items not subject to taxation if
those items not separately stated. If a taxing jurisdiction does not
otherwise subject charges for mobile telecommunications services to
taxation and if these charges are aggregated with and not separately
stated from charges that are subject to taxation, then the charges for
nontaxable mobile telecommunications services may be subject to
taxation unless the home service provider can reasonably identify
charges not subject to such tax, charge, or fee from its books and
records that are kept in the regular course of business.
Section 75. Customers and otherwise non-taxable charges. If a
taxing jurisdiction does not subject charges for mobile
telecommunications services to taxation, a customer may not rely upon
the nontaxability of charges for mobile telecommunications services
unless the customer's home service provider separately states the
charges for nontaxable mobile telecommunications services from taxable
charges or the home service provider elects, after receiving a written
request from the customer in the form required by the provider, to
provide verifiable data based upon the home service provider's books
and records that are kept in the regular course of business that
reasonably identifies the nontaxable charges.
Section 80. Customers' procedures and remedies for correcting
taxes and fees.
(a) If a customer believes that an amount of tax or assignment of
place of primary use or taxing jurisdiction included on a billing is
erroneous, the customer shall notify the home service provider in
writing. The customer shall include in this written notification the
street address for her or his place of primary use, the account name
and number for which the customer seeks a correction of the tax
assignment, a description of the error asserted by the customer, and
any other information that the home service provider reasonably
requires to process the request. Within 60 days after receiving a
notice under this subsection (a), the home service provider shall
review its records and the electronic database or enhanced zip code
used pursuant to Section 25 or 40 to determine the customer's taxing
jurisdiction. If this review shows that the amount of tax, assignment
of place of primary use, or taxing jurisdiction is in error, the home
service provider shall correct the error and refund or credit the
amount of tax erroneously collected from the customer for a period of
up to 2 years. If this review shows that the amount of tax, assignment
of place of primary use, or taxing jurisdiction is correct, the home
service provider shall provide a written explanation to the customer.
(b) If the customer is dissatisfied with the response of the home
service provider under this Section, the customer may seek a correction
or refund or both from the taxing jurisdiction affected.
(c) The procedures in this Section shall be the sole and exclusive
remedy available to customers seeking correction of assignment of place
of primary use or taxing jurisdiction, or a refund of or other
compensation for taxes or fees or both erroneously collected by the
home service provider.
Section 85. Inseverability clause. If a court of competent
jurisdiction enters a final judgment on the merits that (i) is based on
federal law, (ii) is no longer subject to appeal, and (iii)
57 [April 2, 2001]
substantially limits or impairs the essential elements of Sections 116
through 126 of Title 4 of the United States Code, then the provisions
of this Act are invalid and have no legal effect as of the date of
entry of such judgment.
Section 905. The Telecommunications Excise Tax Act is amended by
changing Section 2 as follows:
(35 ILCS 630/2) (from Ch. 120, par. 2002)
Sec. 2. As used in this Article, unless the context clearly
requires otherwise:
(a) "Gross charge" means the amount paid for the act or privilege
of originating or receiving telecommunications in this State and for
all services and equipment provided in connection therewith by a
retailer, valued in money whether paid in money or otherwise, including
cash, credits, services and property of every kind or nature, and shall
be determined without any deduction on account of the cost of such
telecommunications, the cost of materials used, labor or service costs
or any other expense whatsoever. In case credit is extended, the
amount thereof shall be included only as and when paid. "Gross charges"
for private line service shall include charges imposed at each channel
point within this State, charges for the channel mileage between each
channel point within this State, and charges for that portion of the
interstate inter-office channel provided within Illinois. However,
"gross charges" shall not include:
(1) any amounts added to a purchaser's bill because of a
charge made pursuant to (i) the tax imposed by this Article; (ii)
charges added to customers' bills pursuant to the provisions of
Sections 9-221 or 9-222 of the Public Utilities Act, as amended, or
any similar charges added to customers' bills by retailers who are
not subject to rate regulation by the Illinois Commerce Commission
for the purpose of recovering any of the tax liabilities or other
amounts specified in such provisions of such Act; or (iii) the tax
imposed by Section 4251 of the Internal Revenue Code;
(2) charges for a sent collect telecommunication received
outside of the State;

corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries or between wholly
owned subsidiaries when the tax imposed under this Article has
already been paid to a retailer and only to the extent that the
charges between the parent corporation and wholly owned
subsidiaries or between wholly owned subsidiaries represent expense
allocation between the corporations and not the generation of
profit for the corporation rendering such service;
(7) bad debts. Bad debt means any portion of a debt that is
related to a sale at retail for which gross charges are not
otherwise deductible or excludable that has become worthless or
uncollectable, as determined under applicable federal income tax

means a dedicated non-traffic sensitive service for a single customer,
that entitles the customer to exclusive or priority use of a
communications channel or group of channels, from one or more specified
locations to one or more other specified locations. The definition of
"telecommunications" shall not include value added services in which
computer processing applications are used to act on the form, content,

by statute and other than between a parent corporation and its wholly
owned subsidiaries or between wholly owned subsidiaries for their use
or consumption and not for resale.
(l) "Retailer" means and includes every person engaged in the
business of making sales at retail as defined in this Article. The

place of business within this State, who, to the satisfaction of the
Department, furnishes adequate security to insure collection and
payment of the tax. Such retailer shall be issued, without charge, a
permit to collect such tax. When so authorized, it shall be the duty
of such retailer to collect the tax upon all of the gross charges for
telecommunications in this State in the same manner and subject to the
same requirements as a retailer maintaining a place of business within
this State. The permit may be revoked by the Department at its

whether such retailer or subsidiary is licensed to do business in this
State.
(n) "Service address" means the location of telecommunications
equipment from which the telecommunications services are originated or
at which telecommunications services are received by a taxpayer. In
the event this may not be a defined location, as in the case of mobile
phones, paging systems, maritime systems, service address means the
customer's place of primary use as defined in the Mobile
Telecommunications Sourcing Conformity Act. For air-to-ground systems
and the like, service address shall mean the location of a taxpayer's
primary use of the telecommunications equipment as defined by telephone
number, authorization code, or location in Illinois where bills are
sent.
(o) "Prepaid telephone calling arrangements" mean the right to
exclusively purchase telephone or telecommunications services that must
be paid for in advance and enable the origination of one or more
intrastate, interstate, or international telephone calls or other
telecommunications using an access number, an authorization code, or
both, whether manually or electronically dialed, for which payment to a
retailer must be made in advance, provided that, unless recharged, no
further service is provided once that prepaid amount of service has
been consumed. Prepaid telephone calling arrangements include the
recharge of a prepaid calling arrangement. For purposes of this
subsection, "recharge" means the purchase of additional prepaid
telephone or telecommunications services whether or not the purchaser
acquires a different access number or authorization code. "Prepaid
telephone calling arrangement" does not include an arrangement whereby

Section 915. The Emergency Telephone System Act is amended by
changing Section 15.3 as follows:
(50 ILCS 750/15.3) (from Ch. 134, par. 45.3)
Sec. 15.3. (a) The corporate authorities of any municipality or
any county may, subject to the limitations of subsections (c), (d), and
(h), and in addition to any tax levied pursuant to Section 8-11-2 of
the Illinois Municipal Code, impose a monthly surcharge on billed
subscribers of network connection provided by telecommunication
carriers engaged in the business of transmitting messages by means of
electricity originating within the corporate limits of the municipality
or county imposing the surcharge at a rate per network connection
determined in accordance with subsection (c). For mobile
telecommunications services, if a surcharge is imposed it shall be
imposed based upon the municipality or county that encompasses the
customer's place of primary use as defined in the Mobile
Telecommunications Sourcing Conformity Act. A municipality may enter
into an intergovernmental agreement with any county in which it is
partially located, when the county has adopted an ordinance to impose a
surcharge as provided in subsection (c), to include that portion of the
municipality lying outside the county in that county's surcharge
referendum. If the county's surcharge referendum is approved, the
portion of the municipality identified in the intergovernmental
agreement shall automatically be disconnected from the county in which
it lies and connected to the county which approved the referendum for
purposes of a surcharge on telecommunications carriers.
(b) For purposes of computing the surcharge imposed by subsection
(a), the network connections to which the surcharge shall apply shall
be those in-service network connections, other than those network
connections assigned to the municipality or county, where the service
address for each such network connection or connections is located
within the corporate limits of the municipality or county levying the
surcharge. Except for mobile telecommunication services, the "service
address" shall mean the location of the primary use of the network
connection or connections. For mobile telecommunication services,
"service address" means the customer's place of primary use as defined
in the Mobile Telecommunications Sourcing Conformity Act. With respect
to network connections provided for use with pay telephone services for
which there is no billed subscriber, the telecommunications carrier
providing the network connection shall be deemed to be its own billed
subscriber for purposes of applying the surcharge.
(c) Upon the passage of an ordinance to impose a surcharge under
this Section the clerk of the municipality or county shall certify the
question of whether the surcharge may be imposed to the proper election
authority who shall submit the public question to the electors of the
municipality or county in accordance with the general election law;
provided that such question shall not be submitted at a consolidated
primary election. The public question shall be in substantially the
following form:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Shall the county (or city, village
or incorporated town) of.....impose YES
a surcharge of up to...¢ per month per
network connection, which surcharge will
be added to the monthly bill you receive ----------------------------
for telephone or telecommunications
charges, for the purpose of installing
(or improving) a 9-1-1 Emergency NO
Telephone System?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
If a majority of the votes cast upon the public question are in
favor thereof, the surcharge shall be imposed.
However, if a Joint Emergency Telephone System Board is to be
created pursuant to an intergovernmental agreement under Section 15.4,
the ordinance to impose the surcharge shall be subject to the approval
of a majority of the total number of votes cast upon the public
63 [April 2, 2001]
question by the electors of all of the municipalities or counties, or
combination thereof, that are parties to the intergovernmental
agreement.
The referendum requirement of this subsection (c) shall not apply
to any municipality with a population over 500,000 or to any county in
which a proposition as to whether a sophisticated 9-1-1 Emergency
Telephone System should be installed in the county, at a cost not to
exceed a specified monthly amount per network connection, has
previously been approved by a majority of the electors of the county
voting on the proposition at an election conducted before the effective
date of this amendatory Act of 1987.
(d) A county may not impose a surcharge, unless requested by a
municipality, in any incorporated area which has previously approved a
surcharge as provided in subsection (c) or in any incorporated area
where the corporate authorities of the municipality have previously
entered into a binding contract or letter of intent with a
telecommunications carrier to provide sophisticated 9-1-1 service
through municipal funds.
(e) A municipality or county may at any time by ordinance change
the rate of the surcharge imposed under this Section if the new rate
does not exceed the rate specified in the referendum held pursuant to
subsection (c).
(f) The surcharge authorized by this Section shall be collected
from the subscriber by the telecommunications carrier providing the
subscriber the network connection as a separately stated item on the
subscriber's bill.
(g) The amount of surcharge collected by the telecommunications
carrier shall be paid to the particular municipality or county or Joint
Emergency Telephone System Board not later than 30 days after the
surcharge is collected, net of any network or other 9-1-1 or
sophisticated 9-1-1 system charges then due the particular
telecommunications carrier, as shown on an itemized bill. The
telecommunications carrier collecting the surcharge shall also be
entitled to deduct 3% of the gross amount of surcharge collected to
reimburse the telecommunications carrier for the expense of accounting
and collecting the surcharge.
(h) A municipality with a population over 500,000 may not impose a
monthly surcharge in excess of $1.25 per network connection.
(i) Any municipality or county or joint emergency telephone system
board that has imposed a surcharge pursuant to this Section prior to
the effective date of this amendatory Act of 1990 shall hereafter
impose the surcharge in accordance with subsection (b) of this Section.
(j) The corporate authorities of any municipality or county may
issue, in accordance with Illinois law, bonds, notes or other
obligations secured in whole or in part by the proceeds of the
surcharge described in this Section. Notwithstanding any change in law
subsequent to the issuance of any bonds, notes or other obligations
secured by the surcharge, every municipality or county issuing such
bonds, notes or other obligations shall be authorized to impose the
surcharge as though the laws relating to the imposition of the
surcharge in effect at the time of issuance of the bonds, notes or
other obligations were in full force and effect until the bonds, notes
or other obligations are paid in full. The State of Illinois pledges
and agrees that it will not limit or alter the rights and powers vested
in municipalities and counties by this Section to impose the surcharge
so as to impair the terms of or affect the security for bonds, notes or
other obligations secured in whole or in part with the proceeds of the
surcharge described in this Section.
(k) Any surcharge collected by or imposed on a telecommunications
carrier pursuant to this Section shall be held to be a special fund in
trust for the municipality, county or Joint Emergency Telephone Board
imposing the surcharge. Except for the 3% deduction provided in
subsection (g) above, the special fund shall not be subject to the
claims of creditors of the telecommunication carrier.

Section 920. The Illinois Municipal Code is amended by changing
[April 2, 2001] 64
Section 8-11-2 as follows:
(65 ILCS 5/8-11-2) (from Ch. 24, par. 8-11-2)
Sec. 8-11-2. The corporate authorities of any municipality may tax
any or all of the following occupations or privileges:
1. Persons engaged in the business of transmitting messages
by means of electricity or radio magnetic waves, or fiber optics,
at a rate not to exceed 5% of the gross receipts from that business
originating within the corporate limits of the municipality.
Beginning January 1, 2001, prepaid telephone calling arrangements
shall not be subject to the tax imposed under this Section. For
purposes of this Section, "prepaid telephone calling arrangements"
means that term as defined in Section 2-27 of the Retailers'
Occupation Tax Act.
2. Persons engaged in the business of distributing,
supplying, furnishing, or selling gas for use or consumption within
the corporate limits of a municipality of 500,000 or fewer
population, and not for resale, at a rate not to exceed 5% of the
gross receipts therefrom.
2a. Persons engaged in the business of distributing,
supplying, furnishing, or selling gas for use or consumption within
the corporate limits of a municipality of over 500,000 population,
and not for resale, at a rate not to exceed 8% of the gross
receipts therefrom. If imposed, this tax shall be paid in monthly
payments.
3. The privilege of using or consuming electricity acquired
in a purchase at retail and used or consumed within the corporate
limits of the municipality at rates not to exceed the following
maximum rates, calculated on a monthly basis for each purchaser:
(i) For the first 2,000 kilowatt-hours used or consumed in a
month; 0.61 cents per kilowatt-hour;
(ii) For the next 48,000 kilowatt-hours used or consumed in a
month; 0.40 cents per kilowatt-hour;
(iii) For the next 50,000 kilowatt-hours used or consumed in
a month; 0.36 cents per kilowatt-hour;
(iv) For the next 400,000 kilowatt-hours used or consumed in
a month; 0.35 cents per kilowatt-hour;
(v) For the next 500,000 kilowatt-hours used or consumed in a
month; 0.34 cents per kilowatt-hour;
(vi) For the next 2,000,000 kilowatt-hours used or consumed
in a month; 0.32 cents per kilowatt-hour;
(vii) For the next 2,000,000 kilowatt-hours used or consumed
in a month; 0.315 cents per kilowatt-hour;
(viii) For the next 5,000,000 kilowatt-hours used or consumed
in a month; 0.31 cents per kilowatt-hour;
(ix) For the next 10,000,000 kilowatt-hours used or consumed
in a month; 0.305 cents per kilowatt-hour; and
(x) For all electricity used or consumed in excess of
20,000,000 kilowatt-hours in a month, 0.30 cents per kilowatt-hour.
If a municipality imposes a tax at rates lower than either the
maximum rates specified in this Section or the alternative maximum
rates promulgated by the Illinois Commerce Commission, as provided
below, the tax rates shall be imposed upon the kilowatt hour
categories set forth above with the same proportional relationship
as that which exists among such maximum rates. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, until December 31, 2008, no municipality shall establish
rates that are in excess of rates reasonably calculated to produce
revenues that equal the maximum total revenues such municipality
could have received under the tax authorized by this subparagraph
in the last full calendar year prior to the effective date of
Section 65 of this amendatory Act of 1997; provided that this shall
not be a limitation on the amount of tax revenues actually
collected by such municipality.
Upon the request of the corporate authorities of a
municipality, the Illinois Commerce Commission shall, within 90
days after receipt of such request, promulgate alternative rates
for each of these kilowatt-hour categories that will reflect, as
65 [April 2, 2001]
closely as reasonably practical for that municipality, the
distribution of the tax among classes of purchasers as if the tax
were based on a uniform percentage of the purchase price of
electricity. A municipality that has adopted an ordinance imposing
a tax pursuant to subparagraph 3 as it existed prior to the
effective date of Section 65 of this amendatory Act of 1997 may,
rather than imposing the tax permitted by this amendatory Act of
1997, continue to impose the tax pursuant to that ordinance with
respect to gross receipts received from residential customers
through July 31, 1999, and with respect to gross receipts from any
non-residential customer until the first bill issued to such
customer for delivery services in accordance with Section 16-104 of
the Public Utilities Act but in no case later than the last bill
issued to such customer before December 31, 2000. No ordinance
imposing the tax permitted by this amendatory Act of 1997 shall be
applicable to any non-residential customer until the first bill
issued to such customer for delivery services in accordance with
Section 16-104 of the Public Utilities Act but in no case later
than the last bill issued to such non-residential customer before
December 31, 2000.
4. Persons engaged in the business of distributing,
supplying, furnishing, or selling water for use or consumption
within the corporate limits of the municipality, and not for
resale, at a rate not to exceed 5% of the gross receipts therefrom.
None of the taxes authorized by this Section may be imposed with
respect to any transaction in interstate commerce or otherwise to the
extent to which the business or privilege may not, under the
constitution and statutes of the United States, be made the subject of
taxation by this State or any political sub-division thereof; nor shall
any persons engaged in the business of distributing, supplying,
furnishing, selling or transmitting gas, water, or electricity, or
engaged in the business of transmitting messages, or using or consuming
electricity acquired in a purchase at retail, be subject to taxation
under the provisions of this Section for those transactions that are or
may become subject to taxation under the provisions of the "Municipal
Retailers' Occupation Tax Act" authorized by Section 8-11-1; nor shall
any tax authorized by this Section be imposed upon any person engaged
in a business or on any privilege unless the tax is imposed in like
manner and at the same rate upon all persons engaged in businesses of
the same class in the municipality, whether privately or municipally
owned or operated, or exercising the same privilege within the
municipality.
Any of the taxes enumerated in this Section may be in addition to
the payment of money, or value of products or services furnished to the
municipality by the taxpayer as compensation for the use of its
streets, alleys, or other public places, or installation and
maintenance therein, thereon or thereunder of poles, wires, pipes or
other equipment used in the operation of the taxpayer's business.
(a) If the corporate authorities of any home rule municipality
have adopted an ordinance that imposed a tax on public utility
customers, between July 1, 1971, and October 1, 1981, on the good faith
belief that they were exercising authority pursuant to Section 6 of
Article VII of the 1970 Illinois Constitution, that action of the
corporate authorities shall be declared legal and valid,
notwithstanding a later decision of a judicial tribunal declaring the
ordinance invalid. No municipality shall be required to rebate, refund,
or issue credits for any taxes described in this paragraph, and those
taxes shall be deemed to have been levied and collected in accordance
with the Constitution and laws of this State.
(b) In any case in which (i) prior to October 19, 1979, the
corporate authorities of any municipality have adopted an ordinance
imposing a tax authorized by this Section (or by the predecessor
provision of the "Revised Cities and Villages Act") and have explicitly
or in practice interpreted gross receipts to include either charges
added to customers' bills pursuant to the provision of paragraph (a) of
Section 36 of the Public Utilities Act or charges added to customers'
[April 2, 2001] 66
bills by taxpayers who are not subject to rate regulation by the
Illinois Commerce Commission for the purpose of recovering any of the
tax liabilities or other amounts specified in such paragraph (a) of
Section 36 of that Act, and (ii) on or after October 19, 1979, a
judicial tribunal has construed gross receipts to exclude all or part
of those charges, then neither those municipality nor any taxpayer who
paid the tax shall be required to rebate, refund, or issue credits for
any tax imposed or charge collected from customers pursuant to the
municipality's interpretation prior to October 19, 1979. This
paragraph reflects a legislative finding that it would be contrary to
the public interest to require a municipality or its taxpayers to
refund taxes or charges attributable to the municipality's more
inclusive interpretation of gross receipts prior to October 19, 1979,
and is not intended to prescribe or limit judicial construction of this
Section. The legislative finding set forth in this subsection does not
apply to taxes imposed after the effective date of this amendatory Act
of 1995.
(c) The tax authorized by subparagraph 3 shall be collected from
the purchaser by the person maintaining a place of business in this
State who delivers the electricity to the purchaser. This tax shall
constitute a debt of the purchaser to the person who delivers the
electricity to the purchaser and if unpaid, is recoverable in the same
manner as the original charge for delivering the electricity. Any tax
required to be collected pursuant to an ordinance authorized by
subparagraph 3 and any such tax collected by a person delivering
electricity shall constitute a debt owed to the municipality by such
person delivering the electricity, provided, that the person delivering
electricity shall be allowed credit for such tax related to deliveries
of electricity the charges for which are written off as uncollectible,
and provided further, that if such charges are thereafter collected,
the delivering supplier shall be obligated to remit such tax. For
purposes of this subsection (c), any partial payment not specifically
identified by the purchaser shall be deemed to be for the delivery of
electricity. Persons delivering electricity shall collect the tax from
the purchaser by adding such tax to the gross charge for delivering the
electricity, in the manner prescribed by the municipality. Persons
delivering electricity shall also be authorized to add to such gross
charge an amount equal to 3% of the tax to reimburse the person
delivering electricity for the expenses incurred in keeping records,
billing customers, preparing and filing returns, remitting the tax and
supplying data to the municipality upon request. If the person
delivering electricity fails to collect the tax from the purchaser,
then the purchaser shall be required to pay the tax directly to the
municipality in the manner prescribed by the municipality. Persons
delivering electricity who file returns pursuant to this paragraph (c)
shall, at the time of filing such return, pay the municipality the
amount of the tax collected pursuant to subparagraph 3.
(d) For the purpose of the taxes enumerated in this Section:
"Gross receipts" means the consideration received for the
transmission of messages, the consideration received for distributing,
supplying, furnishing or selling gas for use or consumption and not for
resale, and the consideration received for distributing, supplying,
furnishing or selling water for use or consumption and not for resale,
and for all services rendered in connection therewith valued in money,
whether received in money or otherwise, including cash, credit,
services and property of every kind and material and for all services
rendered therewith, and shall be determined without any deduction on
account of the cost of transmitting such messages, without any
deduction on account of the cost of the service, product or commodity
supplied, the cost of materials used, labor or service cost, or any
other expenses whatsoever. "Gross receipts" shall not include that
portion of the consideration received for distributing, supplying,
furnishing, or selling gas or water to, or for the transmission of
messages for, business enterprises described in paragraph (e) of this
Section to the extent and during the period in which the exemption
authorized by paragraph (e) is in effect or for school districts or
67 [April 2, 2001]
units of local government described in paragraph (f) during the period
in which the exemption authorized in paragraph (f) is in effect.
"Gross receipts" shall not include amounts paid by telecommunications
retailers under the Telecommunications Municipal Infrastructure
Maintenance Fee Act.
For utility bills issued on or after May 1, 1996, but before May 1,
1997, and for receipts from those utility bills, "gross receipts" does
not include one-third of (i) amounts added to customers' bills under
Section 9-222 of the Public Utilities Act, or (ii) amounts added to
customers' bills by taxpayers who are not subject to rate regulation by
the Illinois Commerce Commission for the purpose of recovering any of
the tax liabilities described in Section 9-222 of the Public Utilities
Act. For utility bills issued on or after May 1, 1997, but before May
1, 1998, and for receipts from those utility bills, "gross receipts"
does not include two-thirds of (i) amounts added to customers' bills
under Section 9-222 of the Public Utilities Act, or (ii) amount added
to customers' bills by taxpayers who are not subject to rate regulation
by the Illinois Commerce Commission for the purpose of recovering any
of the tax liabilities described in Section 9-222 of the Public
Utilities Act. For utility bills issued on or after May 1, 1998, and
for receipts from those utility bills, "gross receipts" does not
include (i) amounts added to customers' bills under Section 9-222 of
the Public Utilities Act, or (ii) amounts added to customers' bills by
taxpayers who are not subject to rate regulation by the Illinois
Commerce Commission for the purpose of recovering any of the tax
liabilities described in Section 9-222 of the Public Utilities Act.
For purposes of this Section "gross receipts" shall not include (i)
amounts added to customers' bills under Section 9-221 of the Public
Utilities Act, or (ii) charges added to customers' bills to recover the
surcharge imposed under the Emergency Telephone System Act. This
paragraph is not intended to nor does it make any change in the meaning
of "gross receipts" for the purposes of this Section, but is intended
to remove possible ambiguities, thereby confirming the existing meaning
of "gross receipts" prior to the effective date of this amendatory Act
of 1995.
The words "transmitting messages", in addition to the usual and
popular meaning of person to person communication, shall include the
furnishing, for a consideration, of services or facilities (whether
owned or leased), or both, to persons in connection with the
transmission of messages where those persons do not, in turn, receive
any consideration in connection therewith, but shall not include such
furnishing of services or facilities to persons for the transmission of
messages to the extent that any such services or facilities for the
transmission of messages are furnished for a consideration, by those
persons to other persons, for the transmission of messages.
"Person" as used in this Section means any natural individual,
firm, trust, estate, partnership, association, joint stock company,
joint adventure, corporation, limited liability company, municipal
corporation, the State or any of its political subdivisions, any State
university created by statute, or a receiver, trustee, guardian or
other representative appointed by order of any court.
"Person maintaining a place of business in this State" shall mean
any person having or maintaining within this State, directly or by a
subsidiary or other affiliate, an office, generation facility,
distribution facility, transmission facility, sales office or other
place of business, or any employee, agent, or other representative
operating within this State under the authority of the person or its
subsidiary or other affiliate, irrespective of whether such place of
business or agent or other representative is located in this State
permanently or temporarily, or whether such person, subsidiary or other
affiliate is licensed or qualified to do business in this State.
"Public utility" shall have the meaning ascribed to it in Section
3-105 of the Public Utilities Act and shall include telecommunications
carriers as defined in Section 13-202 of that Act and alternative
retail electric suppliers as defined in Section 16-102 of that Act.
"Purchase at retail" shall mean any acquisition of electricity by a
[April 2, 2001] 68
purchaser for purposes of use or consumption, and not for resale, but
shall not include the use of electricity by a public utility directly
in the generation, production, transmission, delivery or sale of
electricity.
"Purchaser" shall mean any person who uses or consumes, within the
corporate limits of the municipality, electricity acquired in a
purchase at retail.
In the case of persons engaged in the business of transmitting
messages through the use of mobile equipment, such as cellular phones
and paging systems, the gross receipts from the business shall be
deemed to originate within the corporate limits of a municipality only
if the customer's place of primary use as defined in the Mobile
Telecommunications Sourcing Conformity Act address to which the bills
for the service are sent is within those corporate limits. If, however,
that address is not located within a municipality that imposes a tax
under this Section, then (i) if the party responsible for the bill is
not an individual, the gross receipts from the business shall be deemed
to originate within the corporate limits of the municipality where that
party's principal place of business in Illinois is located, and (ii) if
the party responsible for the bill is an individual, the gross receipts
from the business shall be deemed to originate within the corporate
limits of the municipality where that party's principal residence in
Illinois is located.
(e) Any municipality that imposes taxes upon public utilities or
upon the privilege of using or consuming electricity pursuant to this
Section whose territory includes any part of an enterprise zone or
federally designated Foreign Trade Zone or Sub-Zone may, by a majority
vote of its corporate authorities, exempt from those taxes for a period
not exceeding 20 years any specified percentage of gross receipts of
public utilities received from, or electricity used or consumed by,
business enterprises that:
(1) either (i) make investments that cause the creation of a
minimum of 200 full-time equivalent jobs in Illinois, (ii) make
investments of at least $175,000,000 that cause the creation of a
minimum of 150 full-time equivalent jobs in Illinois, or (iii) make
investments that cause the retention of a minimum of 1,000
full-time jobs in Illinois; and
(2) are either (i) located in an Enterprise Zone established
pursuant to the Illinois Enterprise Zone Act or (ii) Department of
Commerce and Community Affairs designated High Impact Businesses
located in a federally designated Foreign Trade Zone or Sub-Zone;
and
(3) are certified by the Department of Commerce and Community
Affairs as complying with the requirements specified in clauses (1)
and (2) of this paragraph (e).
Upon adoption of the ordinance authorizing the exemption, the
municipal clerk shall transmit a copy of that ordinance to the
Department of Commerce and Community Affairs. The Department of
Commerce and Community Affairs shall determine whether the business
enterprises located in the municipality meet the criteria prescribed in
this paragraph. If the Department of Commerce and Community Affairs
determines that the business enterprises meet the criteria, it shall
grant certification. The Department of Commerce and Community Affairs
shall act upon certification requests within 30 days after receipt of
the ordinance.
Upon certification of the business enterprise by the Department of
Commerce and Community Affairs, the Department of Commerce and
Community Affairs shall notify the Department of Revenue of the
certification. The Department of Revenue shall notify the public
utilities of the exemption status of the gross receipts received from,
and the electricity used or consumed by, the certified business
enterprises. Such exemption status shall be effective within 3 months
after certification.
(f) A municipality that imposes taxes upon public utilities or
upon the privilege of using or consuming electricity under this Section
and whose territory includes part of another unit of local government
69 [April 2, 2001]
or a school district may by ordinance exempt the other unit of local
government or school district from those taxes.
(g) The amendment of this Section by Public Act 84-127 shall take
precedence over any other amendment of this Section by any other
amendatory Act passed by the 84th General Assembly before the effective
date of Public Act 84-127.
(h) In any case in which, before July 1, 1992, a person engaged in
the business of transmitting messages through the use of mobile
equipment, such as cellular phones and paging systems, has determined
the municipality within which the gross receipts from the business
originated by reference to the location of its transmitting or
switching equipment, then (i) neither the municipality to which tax was
paid on that basis nor the taxpayer that paid tax on that basis shall
be required to rebate, refund, or issue credits for any such tax or
charge collected from customers to reimburse the taxpayer for the tax
and (ii) no municipality to which tax would have been paid with respect
to those gross receipts if the provisions of this amendatory Act of
1991 had been in effect before July 1, 1992, shall have any claim
against the taxpayer for any amount of the tax.
