Information maintained by the Legislative
Reference Bureau
Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process.
Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public
Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the
Guide.
Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes,
statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect.
If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has
not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already
been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes
made to the current law.
30 ILCS 120/13
(30 ILCS 120/13) (from Ch. 85, par. 663)
Sec. 13. Rehabilitation. Except as otherwise allowed by the
Director, to qualify for disbursements made by the
Department from an appropriation made under the provisions of this Section, the
land on which the fair is held must be owned by the county fair board
participating in this disbursement or by a State, city, village, or county
government body, or be held under a lease that is at least 20 years in
duration, the terms of which require the lessee to have continuous possession
of the land during every day of the lease period. No county fair shall
qualify for
disbursements made by the
Department from an appropriation made under the provisions of this Section
unless it shall have notified the Department in writing of its intent to
participate prior to obligating any funds for which reimbursement will be
requested. Each county fair shall be reimbursed annually
for that part of the amount expended by the fair during the year for
liability
and casualty insurance, as provided in this Section, and the
rehabilitation of its grounds, including major construction projects and
minor maintenance and repair projects; as follows:
100% of the first $5,000 or any part thereof;
75% of the next $20,000 or any part thereof;
50% of the next $20,000 or any part thereof.
The lesser of either $20,000 or 50% of the amount
received by a
county fair pursuant to
this Section may be expended for liability and casualty
insurance.
The maximum amount the DeWitt County Fair may be reimbursed in each of fiscal years 2022 and 2023, subject to appropriation, is $13,250. If a county fair expends more than is needed in any
year for approved projects to maximize State reimbursement under this
Section and provides itemized
receipts and other evidence of expenditures
for that year, any excess may be carried over to the
succeeding year. The amount carried over shall constitute a claim for
reimbursement for a subsequent period not to exceed 7 years as
long as
funds are available.
Before June 30 of each year, the president and secretary of each
county fair which has participated in this program shall file with
the Department a sworn statement of the amount expended during the period
July 1 to June 30 of the State's fiscal year, accompanied by
itemized receipted bills and other evidence of expenditures. If the
Department
approves the claim, the State Comptroller is authorized and directed to
draw a warrant payable from the Agricultural Premium Fund on the State
Treasurer for the amount of the rehabilitation
claims.
If after all claims are paid, there remains any amount of the
appropriation for rehabilitation, the remaining amount shall be
distributed as a grant to the participating fairs qualifying for the
maximum reimbursement and shall be distributed to the eligible fairs on
an equal basis
not
to exceed each eligible fair's pro rata share granted in this
paragraph.
A sworn statement of the amount expended accompanied by the itemized
receipted bills as evidence of expenditure must be filed with the
Department by June 30 of each year.
