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.
(55 ILCS 5/5-1025) (from Ch. 34, par. 5-1025)
Sec. 5-1025.
Tax for expense of conducting elections and
maintaining system of permanent registration of voters. In counties
of more than 1,000,000 inhabitants, a county board may levy and collect, in
odd numbered years, a tax of not to exceed .05% of the value, as equalized
or assessed by the Department of Revenue, of all the taxable property in
the county, for the expense of conducting elections and maintaining a
system of permanent registration of voters. Such tax shall not be included
within any statutory limitation of rate or amount for other county
purposes, but shall be excluded therefrom and be in addition thereto and in
excess thereof; provided that this tax shall not be levied or collected on
property situated within the jurisdiction of any municipal board of
election commissioners.
Beginning with calendar year 1986 and annually thereafter, any county
with less than 1,000,000 inhabitants shall pay over to any municipal board
of election commissioners in the county, for the expense of conducting
elections and maintaining a system of permanent registration of voters, an
amount at least equal to the proceeds of the tax collected on property
situated within the jurisdiction of that board under this Section during
calendar year 1985; provided, however, such amount shall be increased or
decreased annually in proportion to any increase or decrease in the
equalized assessed valuation of such municipality. Such amount shall be
payable from the tax levied and collected under Section 5-1024.
