Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Property Tax Extension Limitation Law in the Property Tax Code. Provides that the approximate amount of the tax extendable, as stated on the referendum question submitted to impose a new or increased limiting rate or increase the extension limitation, shall be calculated (i) without regard to any property tax exemptions and (ii) using an equalized assessed value calculated by multiplying the percentage level of assessment prescribed for such property by statute or by ordinance of the county board by the most recent final equalization factor certified to the county clerk by the Department of Revenue at the time the taxing district initiates the submission of the proposition to the electors. Effective immediately.

Senate Floor Amendment No. 1
Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Reinserts the provisions of the introduced bill with changes. Provides that the approximate amount of the tax extendable, as stated on the referendum question submitted to impose a new or increased limiting rate, shall be calculated by multiplying $100,000 by (i) the percentage level of assessment prescribed for that property by statute, or by ordinance of the county board in counties that classify property for purposes of taxation in accordance with Section 4 of Article IX of the Illinois Constitution; (ii) the most recent final equalization factor certified to the county clerk by the Department of Revenue at the time the taxing district initiates the submission of the proposition to the electors; and (iii) either the new rate or the amount by which the limiting rate is to be increased. Provides that the approximate amount of the additional tax extendable, as stated on the referendum question submitted to increase the extension limitation, shall be calculated by multiplying $100,000 by (i) the percentage level of assessment prescribed for that property by statute, or by ordinance of the county board in counties that classify property for purposes of taxation in accordance with Section 4 of Article IX of the Illinois Constitution; (ii) the most recent final equalization factor certified to the county clerk by the Department of Revenue at the time the taxing district initiates the submission of the proposition to the electors; (iii) the last known aggregate extension base of the taxing district at the time the submission of the question is initiated by the taxing district; and (iv) the difference between the percentage increase proposed in the question and the lesser of 5% or the percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index for the prior levy year; and dividing the result by the last known equalized assessed value of the taxing district at the time the submission of the question is initiated by the taxing district. Effective immediately.
