| 1 | | AN ACT concerning revenue.
| 2 | | Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
| 3 | | represented in the General Assembly:
| 4 | | Section 3. The Use Tax Act is amended by changing Section 2 | 5 | | as follows:
| 6 | | (35 ILCS 105/2) (from Ch. 120, par. 439.2)
| 7 | | Sec. 2. "Use" means the exercise by any person of any right | 8 | | or power over
tangible personal property incident to the | 9 | | ownership of that property,
except that it does not include the | 10 | | sale of such property in any form as
tangible personal property | 11 | | in the regular course of business to the extent
that such | 12 | | property is not first subjected to a use for which it was
| 13 | | purchased, and does not include the use of such property by its | 14 | | owner for
demonstration purposes: Provided that the property | 15 | | purchased is deemed to
be purchased for the purpose of resale, | 16 | | despite first being used, to the
extent to which it is resold | 17 | | as an ingredient of an intentionally produced
product or | 18 | | by-product of manufacturing. "Use" does not mean the | 19 | | demonstration
use or interim use of tangible personal property | 20 | | by a retailer before he sells
that tangible personal property. | 21 | | For watercraft or aircraft, if the period of
demonstration use | 22 | | or interim use by the retailer exceeds 18 months,
the retailer
| 23 | | shall pay on the retailers' original cost price the tax imposed |
| | | HB2317 Enrolled | - 2 - | LRB098 09941 JWD 40099 b |
|
| 1 | | by this Act,
and no credit for that tax is permitted if the | 2 | | watercraft or aircraft is
subsequently sold by the retailer. | 3 | | "Use" does not mean the physical
incorporation of tangible | 4 | | personal property, to the extent not first subjected
to a use | 5 | | for which it was purchased, as an ingredient or constituent, | 6 | | into
other tangible personal property (a) which is sold in the | 7 | | regular course of
business or (b) which the person | 8 | | incorporating such ingredient or constituent
therein has | 9 | | undertaken at the time of such purchase to cause to be | 10 | | transported
in interstate commerce to destinations outside the | 11 | | State of Illinois: Provided
that the property purchased is | 12 | | deemed to be purchased for the purpose of
resale, despite first | 13 | | being used, to the extent to which it is resold as an
| 14 | | ingredient of an intentionally produced product or by-product | 15 | | of manufacturing.
| 16 | | "Watercraft" means a Class 2, Class 3, or Class 4 | 17 | | watercraft as defined in
Section 3-2 of the Boat Registration | 18 | | and Safety Act, a personal watercraft, or
any boat equipped | 19 | | with an inboard motor.
| 20 | | "Purchase at retail" means the acquisition of the ownership | 21 | | of or title
to tangible personal property through a sale at | 22 | | retail.
| 23 | | "Purchaser" means anyone who, through a sale at retail, | 24 | | acquires the
ownership of tangible personal property for a | 25 | | valuable consideration.
| 26 | | "Sale at retail" means any transfer of the ownership of or |

|
| 1 | | title to
tangible personal property to a purchaser, for the | 2 | | purpose of use, and not
for the purpose of resale in any form | 3 | | as tangible personal property to the
extent not first subjected | 4 | | to a use for which it was purchased, for a
valuable | 5 | | consideration: Provided that the property purchased is deemed | 6 | | to
be purchased for the purpose of resale, despite first being | 7 | | used, to the
extent to which it is resold as an ingredient of | 8 | | an intentionally produced
product or by-product of | 9 | | manufacturing. For this purpose, slag produced as
an incident | 10 | | to manufacturing pig iron or steel and sold is considered to be
| 11 | | an intentionally produced by-product of manufacturing. "Sale | 12 | | at retail"
includes any such transfer made for resale unless | 13 | | made in compliance with
Section 2c of the Retailers' Occupation | 14 | | Tax Act, as incorporated by
reference into Section 12 of this | 15 | | Act. Transactions whereby the possession
of the property is | 16 | | transferred but the seller retains the title as security
for | 17 | | payment of the selling price are sales.
| 18 | | "Sale at retail" shall also be construed to include any | 19 | | Illinois
florist's sales transaction in which the purchase | 20 | | order is received in
Illinois by a florist and the sale is for | 21 | | use or consumption, but the
Illinois florist has a florist in | 22 | | another state deliver the property to the
purchaser or the | 23 | | purchaser's donee in such other state.
| 24 | | Nonreusable tangible personal property that is used by | 25 | | persons engaged in
the business of operating a restaurant, | 26 | | cafeteria, or drive-in is a sale for
resale when it is |
| | | HB2317 Enrolled | - 4 - | LRB098 09941 JWD 40099 b |
|
| 1 | | transferred to customers in the ordinary course of business
as | 2 | | part of the sale of food or beverages and is used to deliver, | 3 | | package, or
consume food or beverages, regardless of where | 4 | | consumption of the food or
beverages occurs. Examples of those | 5 | | items include, but are not limited to
nonreusable, paper and | 6 | | plastic cups, plates, baskets, boxes, sleeves, buckets
or other | 7 | | containers, utensils, straws, placemats, napkins, doggie bags, | 8 | | and
wrapping or packaging
materials that are transferred to | 9 | | customers as part of the sale of food or
beverages in the | 10 | | ordinary course of business.
| 11 | | The purchase, employment and transfer of such tangible | 12 | | personal property
as newsprint and ink for the primary purpose | 13 | | of conveying news (with or
without other information) is not a | 14 | | purchase, use or sale of tangible
personal property.
| 15 | | "Selling price" means the consideration for a sale valued | 16 | | in money
whether received in money or otherwise, including | 17 | | cash, credits, property
other than as hereinafter provided, and | 18 | | services, but not including the
value of or credit given for | 19 | | traded-in tangible personal property where the
item that is | 20 | | traded-in is of like kind and character as that which is being
| 21 | | sold, and shall be determined without any deduction on account | 22 | | of the cost
of the property sold, the cost of materials used, | 23 | | labor or service cost or
any other expense whatsoever, but does | 24 | | not include interest or finance
charges which appear as | 25 | | separate items on the bill of sale or sales
contract nor | 26 | | charges that are added to prices by sellers on account of the
|
| | | HB2317 Enrolled | - 5 - | LRB098 09941 JWD 40099 b |
|
| 1 | | seller's tax liability under the "Retailers' Occupation Tax | 2 | | Act", or on
account of the seller's duty to collect, from the | 3 | | purchaser, the tax that
is imposed by this Act, or, except as | 4 | | otherwise provided with respect to any cigarette tax imposed by | 5 | | a home rule unit, on account of the seller's tax liability | 6 | | under any local occupation tax administered by the Department, | 7 | | or, except as otherwise provided with respect to any cigarette | 8 | | tax imposed by a home rule unit on account of the seller's duty | 9 | | to collect, from the purchasers, the tax that is imposed under | 10 | | any local use tax administered by the Department. Effective | 11 | | December 1, 1985, "selling price"
shall include charges that | 12 | | are added to prices by sellers on account of the
seller's tax | 13 | | liability under the Cigarette Tax Act, on account of the | 14 | | seller's
duty to collect, from the purchaser, the tax imposed | 15 | | under the Cigarette Use
Tax Act, and on account of the seller's | 16 | | duty to collect, from the purchaser,
any cigarette tax imposed | 17 | | by a home rule unit.
| 18 | | Notwithstanding any law to the contrary, for any motor | 19 | | vehicle, as defined in Section 1-146 of the Vehicle Code, that | 20 | | is sold on or after July 1, 2014 for the purpose of leasing the | 21 | | vehicle for a defined period that is longer than one year and | 22 | | (1) is a motor vehicle of the second division that: (A) is a | 23 | | self-contained motor vehicle designed or permanently converted | 24 | | to provide living quarters for recreational, camping, or travel | 25 | | use, with direct walk through access to the living quarters | 26 | | from the driver's seat; (B) is of the van configuration |

|
| 1 | | designed for the transportation of not less than 7 nor more | 2 | | than 16 passengers; or (C) has a gross vehicle weight rating of | 3 | | 8,000 pounds or less or (2) is a motor vehicle of the first | 4 | | division, "selling price" or "amount of sale" means the | 5 | | consideration received by the lessor pursuant to the lease | 6 | | contract, including amounts due at lease signing and all | 7 | | monthly or other regular payments charged over the term of the | 8 | | lease. Also included in the selling price is any amount | 9 | | received by the lessor from the lessee for the leased vehicle | 10 | | that is not calculated at the time the lease is executed, | 11 | | including, but not limited to, excess mileage charges and | 12 | | charges for excess wear and tear. For sales that occur in | 13 | | Illinois, with respect to any amount received by the lessor | 14 | | from the lessee for the leased vehicle that is not calculated | 15 | | at the time the lease is executed, the lessor who purchased the | 16 | | motor vehicle does not incur the tax imposed by the Use Tax Act | 17 | | on those amounts, and the retailer who makes the retail sale of | 18 | | the motor vehicle to the lessor is not required to collect the | 19 | | tax imposed by this Act or to pay the tax imposed by the | 20 | | Retailers' Occupation Tax Act on those amounts. However, the | 21 | | lessor who purchased the motor vehicle assumes the liability | 22 | | for reporting and paying the tax on those amounts directly to | 23 | | the Department in the same form (Illinois Retailers' Occupation | 24 | | Tax, and local retailers' occupation taxes, if applicable) in | 25 | | which the retailer would have reported and paid such tax if the | 26 | | retailer had accounted for the tax to the Department. For |
| | | HB2317 Enrolled | - 7 - | LRB098 09941 JWD 40099 b |
|
| 1 | | amounts received by the lessor from the lessee that are not | 2 | | calculated at the time the lease is executed, the lessor must | 3 | | file the return and pay the tax to the Department by the due | 4 | | date otherwise required by this Act for returns other than | 5 | | transaction returns. If the retailer is entitled under this Act | 6 | | to a discount for collecting and remitting the tax imposed | 7 | | under this Act to the Department with respect to the sale of | 8 | | the motor vehicle to the lessor, then the right to the discount | 9 | | provided in this Act shall be transferred to the lessor with | 10 | | respect to the tax paid by the lessor for any amount received | 11 | | by the lessor from the lessee for the leased vehicle that is | 12 | | not calculated at the time the lease is executed; provided that | 13 | | the discount is only allowed if the return is timely filed and | 14 | | for amounts timely paid. The "selling price" of a motor vehicle | 15 | | that is sold on or after July 1, 2014 for the purpose of | 16 | | leasing for a defined period of longer than one year shall not | 17 | | be reduced by the value of or credit given for traded-in | 18 | | tangible personal property owned by the lessor, nor shall it be | 19 | | reduced by the value of or credit given for traded-in tangible | 20 | | personal property owned by the lessee, regardless of whether | 21 | | the trade-in value thereof is assigned by the lessee to the | 22 | | lessor. In the case of a motor vehicle that is sold for the | 23 | | purpose of leasing for a defined period of longer than one | 24 | | year, the sale occurs at the time of the delivery of the | 25 | | vehicle, regardless of the due date of any lease payments. A | 26 | | lessor who incurs a Retailers' Occupation Tax liability on the |
| | | HB2317 Enrolled | - 8 - | LRB098 09941 JWD 40099 b |
|
| 1 | | sale of a motor vehicle coming off lease may not take a credit | 2 | | against that liability for the Use Tax the lessor paid upon the | 3 | | purchase of the motor vehicle (or for any tax the lessor paid | 4 | | with respect to any amount received by the lessor from the | 5 | | lessee for the leased vehicle that was not calculated at the | 6 | | time the lease was executed) if the selling price of the motor | 7 | | vehicle at the time of purchase was calculated using the | 8 | | definition of "selling price" as defined in this paragraph. | 9 | | Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act to the | 10 | | contrary, lessors shall file all returns and make all payments | 11 | | required under this paragraph to the Department by electronic | 12 | | means in the manner and form as required by the Department. | 13 | | This paragraph does not apply to leases of motor vehicles for | 14 | | which, at the time the lease is entered into, the term of the | 15 | | lease is not a defined period, including leases with a defined | 16 | | initial period with the option to continue the lease on a | 17 | | month-to-month or other basis beyond the initial defined | 18 | | period. | 19 | | The phrase "like kind and character" shall be liberally | 20 | | construed
(including but not limited to any form of motor | 21 | | vehicle for any form of
motor vehicle, or any kind of farm or | 22 | | agricultural implement for any other
kind of farm or | 23 | | agricultural implement), while not including a kind of item
| 24 | | which, if sold at retail by that retailer, would be exempt from | 25 | | retailers'
occupation tax and use tax as an isolated or | 26 | | occasional sale.

| 7 | | "Retailer" means and includes every person engaged in the | 8 | | business of
making sales at retail as defined in this Section.
| 9 | | A person who holds himself or herself out as being engaged | 10 | | (or who habitually
engages) in selling tangible personal | 11 | | property at retail is a retailer
hereunder with respect to such | 12 | | sales (and not primarily in a service
occupation) | 13 | | notwithstanding the fact that such person designs and produces
| 14 | | such tangible personal property on special order for the | 15 | | purchaser and in
such a way as to render the property of value | 16 | | only to such purchaser, if
such tangible personal property so | 17 | | produced on special order serves
substantially the same | 18 | | function as stock or standard items of tangible
personal | 19 | | property that are sold at retail.
| 20 | | A person whose activities are organized and conducted | 21 | | primarily as a
not-for-profit service enterprise, and who | 22 | | engages in selling tangible
personal property at retail | 23 | | (whether to the public or merely to members and
their guests) | 24 | | is a retailer with respect to such transactions, excepting
only | 25 | | a person organized and operated exclusively for charitable, | 26 | | religious
or educational purposes either (1), to the extent of |
| | | HB2317 Enrolled | - 10 - | LRB098 09941 JWD 40099 b |
|
| 1 | | sales by such person

to be used primarily for | 3 | | the purposes of such person, or (2), to the extent
of sales by | 4 | | such person of tangible personal property which is not sold or
| 5 | | offered for sale by persons organized for profit. The selling | 6 | | of school
books and school supplies by schools at retail to | 7 | | students is not
"primarily for the purposes of" the school | 8 | | which does such selling. This
paragraph does not apply to nor | 9 | | subject to taxation occasional dinners,
social or similar | 10 | | activities of a person organized and operated exclusively
for | 11 | | charitable, religious or educational purposes, whether or not | 12 | | such
activities are open to the public.
| 13 | | A person who is the recipient of a grant or contract under | 14 | | Title VII of

by a person who does not hold himself out as | 25 | | being engaged (or who does not
habitually engage) in selling | 26 | | such tangible personal property at retail or
a sale through a |
| | | HB2317 Enrolled | - 11 - | LRB098 09941 JWD 40099 b |
|
| 1 | | bulk vending machine does not make such person a retailer
| 2 | | hereunder. However, any person who is engaged in a business | 3 | | which is not
subject to the tax imposed by the "Retailers' | 4 | | Occupation Tax Act" because
of involving the sale of or a | 5 | | contract to sell real estate or a
construction contract to | 6 | | improve real estate, but who, in the course of
conducting such | 7 | | business, transfers tangible personal property to users or
| 8 | | consumers in the finished form in which it was purchased, and | 9 | | which does
not become real estate, under any provision of a | 10 | | construction contract or
real estate sale or real estate sales | 11 | | agreement entered into with some
other person arising out of or | 12 | | because of such nontaxable business, is a
retailer to the | 13 | | extent of the value of the tangible personal property so
| 14 | | transferred. If, in such transaction, a separate charge is made | 15 | | for the
tangible personal property so transferred, the value of | 16 | | such property, for
the purposes of this Act, is the amount so | 17 | | separately charged, but not less
than the cost of such property | 18 | | to the transferor; if no separate charge is
made, the value of | 19 | | such property, for the purposes of this Act, is the cost
to the | 20 | | transferor of such tangible personal property.

term, means and includes any of the following | 23 | | retailers:

| 11 | | (35 ILCS 120/1) (from Ch. 120, par. 440)
| 12 | | Sec. 1. Definitions. "Sale at retail" means any transfer of | 13 | | the
ownership of or title to
tangible personal property to a | 14 | | purchaser, for the purpose of use or
consumption, and not for | 15 | | the purpose of resale in any form as tangible
personal property | 16 | | to the extent not first subjected to a use for which it

first being used, to the extent to which it is | 20 | | resold as an ingredient of
an intentionally produced product or | 21 | | byproduct of manufacturing. For this
purpose, slag produced as | 22 | | an incident to manufacturing pig iron or steel

first subjected to a use for which it was purchased, | 14 | | as an ingredient or
constituent, goes into and forms a part of | 15 | | tangible personal property
subsequently the subject of a "Sale | 16 | | at retail", are not sales at retail as
defined in this Act: | 17 | | Provided that the property purchased is deemed to be
purchased | 18 | | for the purpose of resale, despite first being used, to the
| 19 | | extent to which it is resold as an ingredient of an | 20 | | intentionally produced
product or byproduct of manufacturing.

| 5 | | Notwithstanding any law to the contrary, for any motor | 6 | | vehicle, as defined in Section 1-146 of the Vehicle Code, that | 7 | | is sold on or after July 1, 2014 for the purpose of leasing the | 8 | | vehicle for a defined period that is longer than one year and | 9 | | (1) is a motor vehicle of the second division that: (A) is a | 10 | | self-contained motor vehicle designed or permanently converted | 11 | | to provide living quarters for recreational, camping, or travel | 12 | | use, with direct walk through access to the living quarters | 13 | | from the driver's seat; (B) is of the van configuration | 14 | | designed for the transportation of not less than 7 nor more | 15 | | than 16 passengers; or (C) has a gross vehicle weight rating of | 16 | | 8,000 pounds or less or (2) is a motor vehicle of the first | 17 | | division, "selling price" or "amount of sale" means the | 18 | | consideration received by the lessor pursuant to the lease | 19 | | contract, including amounts due at lease signing and all | 20 | | monthly or other regular payments charged over the term of the | 21 | | lease. Also included in the selling price is any amount | 22 | | received by the lessor from the lessee for the leased vehicle | 23 | | that is not calculated at the time the lease is executed, | 24 | | including, but not limited to, excess mileage charges and | 25 | | charges for excess wear and tear. For sales that occur in | 26 | | Illinois, with respect to any amount received by the lessor |

|
| 1 | | from the lessee for the leased vehicle that is not calculated | 2 | | at the time the lease is executed, the lessor who purchased the | 3 | | motor vehicle does not incur the tax imposed by the Use Tax Act | 4 | | on those amounts, and the retailer who makes the retail sale of | 5 | | the motor vehicle to the lessor is not required to collect the | 6 | | tax imposed by the Use Tax Act or to pay the tax imposed by this | 7 | | Act on those amounts. However, the lessor who purchased the | 8 | | motor vehicle assumes the liability for reporting and paying | 9 | | the tax on those amounts directly to the Department in the same | 10 | | form (Illinois Retailers' Occupation Tax, and local retailers' | 11 | | occupation taxes, if applicable) in which the retailer would | 12 | | have reported and paid such tax if the retailer had accounted | 13 | | for the tax to the Department. For amounts received by the | 14 | | lessor from the lessee that are not calculated at the time the | 15 | | lease is executed, the lessor must file the return and pay the | 16 | | tax to the Department by the due date otherwise required by | 17 | | this Act for returns other than transaction returns. If the | 18 | | retailer is entitled under this Act to a discount for | 19 | | collecting and remitting the tax imposed under this Act to the | 20 | | Department with respect to the sale of the motor vehicle to the | 21 | | lessor, then the right to the discount provided in this Act | 22 | | shall be transferred to the lessor with respect to the tax paid | 23 | | by the lessor for any amount received by the lessor from the | 24 | | lessee for the leased vehicle that is not calculated at the | 25 | | time the lease is executed; provided that the discount is only | 26 | | allowed if the return is timely filed and for amounts timely |

| 1 | | paid. The "selling price" of a motor vehicle that is sold on or | 2 | | after July 1, 2014 for the purpose of leasing for a defined | 3 | | period of longer than one year shall not be reduced by the | 4 | | value of or credit given for traded-in tangible personal | 5 | | property owned by the lessor, nor shall it be reduced by the | 6 | | value of or credit given for traded-in tangible personal | 7 | | property owned by the lessee, regardless of whether the | 8 | | trade-in value thereof is assigned by the lessee to the lessor. | 9 | | In the case of a motor vehicle that is sold for the purpose of | 10 | | leasing for a defined period of longer than one year, the sale | 11 | | occurs at the time of the delivery of the vehicle, regardless | 12 | | of the due date of any lease payments. A lessor who incurs a | 13 | | Retailers' Occupation Tax liability on the sale of a motor | 14 | | vehicle coming off lease may not take a credit against that | 15 | | liability for the Use Tax the lessor paid upon the purchase of | 16 | | the motor vehicle (or for any tax the lessor paid with respect | 17 | | to any amount received by the lessor from the lessee for the | 18 | | leased vehicle that was not calculated at the time the lease | 19 | | was executed) if the selling price of the motor vehicle at the | 20 | | time of purchase was calculated using the definition of | 21 | | "selling price" as defined in this paragraph.
Notwithstanding | 22 | | any other provision of this Act to the contrary, lessors shall | 23 | | file all returns and make all payments required under this | 24 | | paragraph to the Department by electronic means in the manner | 25 | | and form as required by the Department. This paragraph does not | 26 | | apply to leases of motor vehicles for which, at the time the |
| | | HB2317 Enrolled | - 23 - | LRB098 09941 JWD 40099 b |
|
| 1 | | lease is entered into, the term of the lease is not a defined | 2 | | period, including leases with a defined initial period with the | 3 | | option to continue the lease on a month-to-month or other basis | 4 | | beyond the initial defined period. | 5 | | The phrase "like kind and character" shall be liberally | 6 | | construed
(including but not limited to any form of motor | 7 | | vehicle for any form of
motor vehicle, or any kind of farm or | 8 | | agricultural implement for any other
kind of farm or | 9 | | agricultural implement), while not including a kind of item
| 10 | | which, if sold at retail by that retailer, would be exempt from | 11 | | retailers'
occupation tax and use tax as an isolated or | 12 | | occasional sale.
| 13 | | "Gross receipts" from the sales of tangible personal | 14 | | property at retail
means the total selling price or the amount | 15 | | of such sales, as hereinbefore
defined. In the case of charge | 16 | | and time sales, the amount thereof shall be
included only as | 17 | | and when payments are received by the seller.
Receipts or other | 18 | | consideration derived by a seller from
the sale, transfer or | 19 | | assignment of accounts receivable to a wholly owned
subsidiary | 20 | | will not be deemed payments prior to the time the purchaser
| 21 | | makes payment on such accounts.
| 22 | | "Department" means the Department of Revenue.
| 23 | | "Person" means any natural individual, firm, partnership, | 24 | | association,
joint stock company, joint adventure, public or | 25 | | private corporation, limited
liability company, or a receiver, | 26 | | executor, trustee, guardian or other

| 2 | | The isolated or occasional sale of tangible personal | 3 | | property at retail
by a person who does not hold himself out as | 4 | | being engaged (or who does not
habitually engage) in selling | 5 | | such tangible personal property at retail, or
a sale through a | 6 | | bulk vending machine, does not constitute engaging in a
| 7 | | business of selling such tangible personal property at retail | 8 | | within the
meaning of this Act; provided that any person who is | 9 | | engaged in a business
which is not subject to the tax imposed | 10 | | by this Act because of involving
the sale of or a contract to | 11 | | sell real estate or a construction contract to
improve real | 12 | | estate or a construction contract to engineer, install, and
| 13 | | maintain an integrated system of products, but who, in the | 14 | | course of
conducting such business,
transfers tangible | 15 | | personal property to users or consumers in the finished
form in | 16 | | which it was purchased, and which does not become real estate | 17 | | or was
not engineered and installed, under any provision of a | 18 | | construction contract or
real estate sale or real estate sales | 19 | | agreement entered into with some other
person arising out of or | 20 | | because of such nontaxable business, is engaged in the
business | 21 | | of selling tangible personal property at retail to the extent | 22 | | of the
value of the tangible personal property so transferred. | 23 | | If, in such a
transaction, a separate charge is made for the | 24 | | tangible personal property so
transferred, the value of such | 25 | | property, for the purpose of this Act, shall be
the amount so | 26 | | separately charged, but not less than the cost of such property
|
| | | HB2317 Enrolled | - 25 - | LRB098 09941 JWD 40099 b |
|
| 1 | | to the transferor; if no separate charge is made, the value of | 2 | | such property,
for the purposes of this Act, is the cost to the | 3 | | transferor of such tangible
personal property. Construction | 4 | | contracts for the improvement of real estate
consisting of | 5 | | engineering, installation, and maintenance of voice, data, | 6 | | video,
security, and all telecommunication systems do not | 7 | | constitute engaging in a
business of selling tangible personal | 8 | | property at retail within the meaning of
this Act if they are | 9 | | sold at one specified contract price.
| 10 | | A person who holds himself or herself out as being engaged | 11 | | (or who habitually
engages) in selling tangible personal | 12 | | property at retail is a person
engaged in the business of | 13 | | selling tangible personal property at retail
hereunder with | 14 | | respect to such sales (and not primarily in a service
| 15 | | occupation) notwithstanding the fact that such person designs | 16 | | and produces
such tangible personal property on special order | 17 | | for the purchaser and in
such a way as to render the property | 18 | | of value only to such purchaser, if
such tangible personal | 19 | | property so produced on special order serves
substantially the | 20 | | same function as stock or standard items of tangible
personal | 21 | | property that are sold at retail.
| 22 | | Persons who engage in the business of transferring tangible | 23 | | personal
property upon the redemption of trading stamps are | 24 | | engaged in the business

the tax imposed by this Act | 26 | | on the basis of the retail value of the
property transferred |

| 2 | | "Bulk vending machine" means a vending machine,
containing | 3 | | unsorted confections, nuts, toys, or other items designed
| 4 | | primarily to be used or played with by children
which, when a | 5 | | coin or coins of a denomination not larger than $0.50 are

| 11 | | (35 ILCS 200/20-5)
| 12 | | Sec. 20-5. Mailing or e-mailing tax bill to owner. | 13 | | (a) Every township collector, and every
county collector in | 14 | | cases where there is no township collector, upon receiving
the | 15 | | tax book or books, shall prepare tax bills showing each | 16 | | installment of
property taxes assessed, which shall be filled | 17 | | out in accordance with Section
20-40. A copy of the bill shall | 18 | | be mailed by the collector, at least 30 days
prior to the date | 19 | | upon which unpaid taxes become delinquent, to the owner of
the | 20 | | property taxed or to the person in whose name the property is | 21 | | taxed. | 22 | | (b) The collector may send the bill via e-mail as provided | 23 | | in subsection (b) of Section 20-20. However, no bill shall be | 24 | | sent to a property owner or taxpayer via e-mail unless that |
| | | HB2317 Enrolled | - 27 - | LRB098 09941 JWD 40099 b |

| 4 | | (35 ILCS 200/20-20)
| 5 | | Sec. 20-20. Changes in address for mailing tax bill. | 6 | | (a) To insure that a person
requesting a change of the | 7 | | address to which a property tax bill is sent has a
legal | 8 | | interest in the property or authority to act on behalf of the | 9 | | owner of
the property, the county collector in every county | 10 | | with less than 3,000,000
inhabitants or less shall establish | 11 | | and enforce a procedure for requiring
identification or | 12 | | certification of the identity of taxpayers who request a
change | 13 | | in the address to which their tax bill is mailed. No change of | 14 | | address
shall be implemented unless the person requesting the | 15 | | change is the owner of
the property, a trustee or a person | 16 | | holding the power of attorney from the
owner or trustee of the | 17 | | property. However, if a property owner conveys a permanent | 18 | | change of address in writing to the United States Postal | 19 | | Service, then, on or after the effective date of that change of | 20 | | address, the county collector may mail a property tax bill to | 21 | | the property owner at his or her new address regardless of | 22 | | whether or not the owner notifies the collector of the address | 23 | | change.
| 24 | | (b) As an alternative to mailing a copy of the bill, the | 25 | | collector may send the tax bill via e-mail at the request of |
| | | HB2317 Enrolled | - 28 - | LRB098 09941 JWD 40099 b |
|
| 1 | | the taxpayer , subject to the provisions of subsection (b) of | 2 | | Section 20-5 of this Act . If the taxpayer makes such a request, | 3 | | then the taxpayer shall notify the collector of any change in | 4 | | his or her e-mail address as soon as possible after the address | 5 | | is changed. | 6 | | (Source: P.A. 97-1084, eff. 8-24-12.)
