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 305/2) (from Ch. 17, par. 6602)
Sec. 2.
Notwithstanding the provisions of any other law to the
contrary, any public corporation may agree or contract to pay interest
on bonds or other evidences of indebtedness and tax anticipation
warrants issued pursuant to law at an interest rate or rates not exceeding
the greater of 9% per annum or 125% of the rate for the most recent date
shown in the 20 G.O. Bonds Index of average municipal bond yields as published
in the most recent edition of The Bond Buyer, published in New York, New
York (or any successor publication or index, or if such publication or
index is no longer published, then any index of long term municipal
tax-exempt bond yields then selected by a governing body), at the time
the contract is made for the sale of the bonds or other
evidences of indebtedness or tax anticipation warrants. A contract is
made with respect to notes or bonds when the public corporation is
contractually
obligated to issue notes, bonds, or other evidences of indebtedness or tax
anticipation warrants to a purchaser who is contractually obligated to
purchase them; and, with respect to bonds or notes bearing interest at a
variable rate or subject to payment upon periodic demand or put or
otherwise subject to remarketing by or for the public corporation, a
contract is made on each date of change in the variable rate or such
demand, put or remarketing. When bonds or other evidences of indebtedness
or tax anticipation warrants are to be issued by a public corporation on a
basis which is not tax-exempt under Section 103 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as now or hereafter amended, or successor code or provision,
then the interest rate or rates payable thereon shall be determined by
substituting 13 1/2% for 9% and 200% for 125% in the first sentence of this Section.
These amendatory Acts of 1971, 1972, 1973, 1975, 1979, 1982, 1983,
1987 and 1988 are not limits upon any home rule unit.
This Act is not a limit with respect to any bonds,
notes and other evidences of obligation for borrowed money issued by any
public corporation and purchased or otherwise acquired by the Illinois Finance
Authority, pursuant to
the Illinois Finance Authority Act, and such bonds,
notes and
other evidences of obligation for borrowed money may bear interest at any
rate or rates, and such rate or rates may be established by an index or
formula which may be implemented or established by persons appointed or
retained therefor, notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary.
