officials having legal title shall not advertise or sell | 25 | | that
school site, building, or site with building thereon, | 26 | | pursuant to those
proceedings. The notices may be in the |

|
| 1 | | following form:

| 17 | | ....
| 18 | | ....
| 19 | | ....
| 20 | | (Here insert title of school
| 21 | | officials holding legal title)
| 22 | | For purposes of determining "terms of sale" under this | 23 | | Section, the General
Assembly declares by this clarifying and | 24 | | amendatory Act of 1983 that "terms
of sale" are not limited to | 25 | | sales for cash only but include contracts for
deed, mortgages, |
| | | HB5690 | - 6 - | LRB100 16710 WGH 31848 b |
|
| 1 | | and such other seller financed terms as may be specified
by the | 2 | | school board.
| 3 | | If a school board specifies a reasonable minimum selling | 4 | | price and that
price is not met or if no bids are received, the | 5 | | school board may adopt a
resolution determining or directing | 6 | | that the services
of
a licensed real estate broker be engaged | 7 | | to sell the property for a
commission not to exceed 7%,
| 8 | | contingent on the sale of the property within 120 days. If | 9 | | legal title to the
property is not held by the school board,
| 10 | | the trustees of schools or other school officials having legal | 11 | | title shall,
upon receipt of the resolution, engage the | 12 | | services of a licensed real estate
broker as directed in the | 13 | | resolution.
The board may accept a written offer equal to or | 14 | | greater than the established
minimum selling price for the | 15 | | described property. The services of a licensed
real estate | 16 | | broker may be utilized to seek a buyer. If the board lowers the
| 17 | | minimum selling price on the described property, the public | 18 | | sale procedures set
forth in this Section must be followed. The | 19 | | board may raise the minimum selling
price without repeating the | 20 | | public sale procedures.
| 21 | | In the case of a sale of property to a tenant that has | 22 | | leased the
property for 10 or more years and that is a | 23 | | non-profit agency, an
appraisal is required prior to the sale. | 24 | | If the non-profit agency purchases
the property for less than | 25 | | the appraised value and subsequently sells the
property, the | 26 | | agency may retain only a percentage of the profits that is
|
| | | HB5690 | - 7 - | LRB100 16710 WGH 31848 b |
|
| 1 | | proportional to the percentage of the appraisal,
plus any | 2 | | improvements made by the agency while the agency was the
owner,
| 3 | | that the agency paid in the initial sale.
The remaining portion | 4 | | of the profits made by the non-profit agency
shall revert to | 5 | | the school district.
| 6 | | The deed of conveyance shall be executed by the president | 7 | | and clerk
or secretary of the school board, trustees of | 8 | | schools, or other school
officials having legal title to the | 9 | | land, and the proceeds paid to the school
treasurer for the
| 10 | | benefit of the district ; provided, that the proceeds of any | 11 | | such sale on
the island of Kaskaskia shall be paid to the State | 12 | | Treasurer for the use
of the district and shall be disbursed by | 13 | | him in the same manner as
income from the Kaskaskia Commons | 14 | | permanent school fund . The school
board shall use the proceeds | 15 | | from the sale first to pay the principal
and interest on any | 16 | | outstanding bonds on the property being sold, and
after all | 17 | | such bonds have been retired, the remaining proceeds from the
| 18 | | sale next shall be used by the school board to meet any urgent | 19 | | district needs
as determined under Sections 2-3.12 and 17-2.11 | 20 | | and then for any other
authorized purpose and for deposit into | 21 | | any district fund. But whenever the
school board of any school | 22 | | district determines that any schoolhouse site with
or without a | 23 | | building thereon is of no further use to the district, and | 24 | | agrees
with the school board of any other school district | 25 | | within the boundaries of
which the site is situated, upon the | 26 | | sale thereof to that district, and agrees
upon the price to be |
| | | HB5690 | - 8 - | LRB100 16710 WGH 31848 b |
|
| 1 | | paid therefor, and the site is selected by the purchasing
| 2 | | district in the manner required by law, then after the payment | 3 | | of the
compensation the school board, township trustees, or | 4 | | other school
officials having legal title
to the land of the | 5 | | schools shall, by proper instrument in writing, convey the
| 6 | | legal title of the site to the school board of the purchasing | 7 | | district, or to
the
trustees of schools for the use of the | 8 | | purchasing district, in accordance
with law. The provisions of | 9 | | this Section
shall not apply to any sale made pursuant to | 10 | | Section 5-23 or Section 5-24 or
Section 32-4.

| 12 | | (105 ILCS 5/5-28) (from Ch. 122, par. 5-28)
| 13 | | Sec. 5-28. Lease or sale of lands. The trustees of schools | 14 | | or township land commissioners may lease or sell
any lands that | 15 | | come into their possession in the manner described in
Sections | 16 | | 5-26 or 5-27. When in their opinion it is to the best interest
| 17 | | of the schools of the township or district interested in any | 18 | | such lands
that they be sold, the trustees shall adopt a | 19 | | resolution to such effect and
in such resolution shall specify | 20 | | the time, place and terms of sale. The
sale shall be at public | 21 | | auction and the trustees shall give notice thereof
by | 22 | | publishing notice once each week for three successive weeks | 23 | | prior to the
date of the sale in a newspaper published in the | 24 | | township to which the real
estate belongs, and if the lands to | 25 | | be sold lie outside of the township to
which they belong then |
| | | HB5690 | - 9 - | LRB100 16710 WGH 31848 b |
|
| 1 | | such notice is to be published as herein provided in
a | 2 | | newspaper published in the township in which the land lies or, | 3 | | if no such
newspaper is published either in the township where | 4 | | the real estate belongs
or in the township where the land lies, | 5 | | then in a newspaper published in
the county and having a | 6 | | general circulation in the township affected. The
notices shall | 7 | | describe the property and state the time, place and terms of
| 8 | | the sale. The trustees have the right to reject any and all | 9 | | bids. Upon the
sale being made, deed of conveyance shall be | 10 | | executed by the president and
clerk of the trustees and the | 11 | | proceeds shall be paid to the township
treasurer for the | 12 | | benefit of the township or the district interested in the
| 13 | | lands ; provided, that the proceeds of any such sale on the | 14 | | island of
Kaskaskia shall be paid to the State Treasurer for | 15 | | the use of such district
and shall be disbursed by him in the | 16 | | same manner as income from the
Kaskaskia Commons permanent | 17 | | school funds .
