2 | Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois, | |||||||||||||||||||
3 | represented in the General Assembly: | |||||||||||||||||||
4 | Section 5. The State Property Control Act is amended by | |||||||||||||||||||
5 | changing Section 7.3 as follows: | |||||||||||||||||||
6 | (30 ILCS 605/7.3) (from Ch. 127, par. 133b10.3) | |||||||||||||||||||
7 | Sec. 7.3. Administrator; transferable property. | |||||||||||||||||||
8 | (a) Except as otherwise provided in subsection (c), the | |||||||||||||||||||
9 | The Administrator shall have charge of all transferable | |||||||||||||||||||
10 | property and shall have authority to take possession and | |||||||||||||||||||
11 | control of such property in order to transfer or assign any | |||||||||||||||||||
12 | such property to any other State agency that has need or use | |||||||||||||||||||
13 | for such property or to dispose of said property in accordance | |||||||||||||||||||
14 | with Section 7 of this Act. | |||||||||||||||||||
15 | (b) The Administrator may not dispose of a transferable | |||||||||||||||||||
16 | airplane by sale until he or she determines that (i) the agency | |||||||||||||||||||
17 | no longer has a need for the airplane, (ii) the airplane will | |||||||||||||||||||
18 | not be used as a trade-in on another aircraft, and (iii) no | |||||||||||||||||||
19 | public university or college in Illinois that offers courses | |||||||||||||||||||
20 | in aviation, flight training, or other subjects involving | |||||||||||||||||||
21 | knowledge of the workings of an airplane has listed the need | |||||||||||||||||||
22 | for an airplane as provided in this Section. | |||||||||||||||||||
23 | (c) In addition to the powers granted to the Administrator |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | under this Section, the Board of Trustees of a public | ||||||
2 | university or college in Illinois that offers courses in | ||||||
3 | aviation, flight training, or other subjects involving | ||||||
4 | knowledge of the workings of an airplane may dispose of a | ||||||
5 | qualified transferable airplane by sale to a bona fide | ||||||
6 | purchaser for value and on such terms as the Board shall | ||||||
7 | determine are in the best interests of that public university | ||||||
8 | or college and are consistent with that university's or | ||||||
9 | college's objects and purposes. If the Board of Trustees or | ||||||
10 | the Administrator sells a qualified transferable airplane, | ||||||
11 | then the public university or college may retain the proceeds | ||||||
12 | from the sale in a separate account for the purpose of | ||||||
13 | maintaining the university's or college's fleet of aircraft or | ||||||
14 | for the purpose of purchasing replacement aircraft. The | ||||||
15 | Auditor General shall examine the separate account to ensure | ||||||
16 | that the use or deposit of the proceeds authorized under this | ||||||
17 | subsection (c) is in a manner consistent with the purposes set | ||||||
18 | forth in this subsection. As used in this subsection, | ||||||
19 | "qualified transferable airplane" means a transferable | ||||||
20 | airplane that is owned by a public university or college in | ||||||
21 | Illinois and that is used for instruction in aviation, flight | ||||||
22 | training, or other subjects involving knowledge of the | ||||||
23 | workings of an airplane. | ||||||
24 | (d) Responsible officers shall periodically report all | ||||||
25 | transferable property at locations under their jurisdictions | ||||||
26 | to the Administrator. The Administrator shall review such |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | reports and arrange for physical examination of said property | ||||||
2 | if necessary to determine if said items of transferable | ||||||
3 | property should be transferred to another State agency, | ||||||
4 | transferred to a central warehouse, or disposed of. The | ||||||
5 | Administrator shall advise responsible officers of the results | ||||||
6 | of these reviews as necessary. | ||||||
7 | (e) The staff under the jurisdiction of the Administrator | ||||||
8 | shall review as necessary State agencies' inventories for | ||||||
9 | potential items of transferable property. If in the opinion of | ||||||
10 | the Administrator's staff, any property appears to be | ||||||
11 | transferable, the Administrator shall notify the responsible | ||||||
12 | officer of his determination. The executive head of the agency | ||||||
13 | holding the property in question may appeal the determination | ||||||
14 | in writing to the Administrator. | ||||||
15 | (f) The Administrator will review the determination in | ||||||
16 | accordance with rules and procedures established pursuant to | ||||||
17 | Section 5 of this Act. | ||||||
18 | (g) The Administrator shall maintain lists of transferable | ||||||
19 | property and of State agency needs for such property and will | ||||||
20 | transfer where appropriate listed transferable property to | ||||||
21 | agencies listing their needs for such property as detailed by | ||||||
22 | their responsible officers. The Administrator must give | ||||||
23 | priority for transfer of an airplane, that is not to be used as | ||||||
24 | a trade-in, to a public university or college in Illinois that | ||||||
25 | offers courses in aviation, flight training, or other subjects | ||||||
26 | involving knowledge of the workings of an airplane and that |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | has listed the need for an airplane. | ||||||
