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.

Sec. 7.06. Recreational programs for persons with disabilities; tax.
(a) The Chicago Park District is authorized to establish, maintain, and
manage
recreational programs for persons with disabilities, including both persons with mental disabilities and persons with physical disabilities, to provide transportation for persons with disabilities to and from these
programs, to
provide for the examination of participants in such programs as deemed
necessary, to charge fees for participating in the programs (the fee charged
for non-residents of the district need not be the same as the fees charged the
residents of the
district), and to charge fees for transportation furnished to participants.
(b) For the purposes of the recreational programs for persons with disabilities
established
under this Section, the Chicago Park District is authorized to adopt procedures
for
approval of budgets, authorization of expenditures, location of recreational
areas,
acquisition of real estate by gift, legacy, grant, or purchase, and employment
of a director
and other professional workers for the programs.
(c) For the purposes of providing recreational programs for persons with disabilities
under
this Section, the Chicago Park District may levy and collect annually a tax of
not to
exceed .04% of the value, as equalized or assessed by the Department of
Revenue, of all
taxable property in the district for the purpose of funding the district's
expenses of
providing these programs. This tax shall be levied and collected in like
manner as the
general taxes for the district. The tax shall be in addition to all other taxes
authorized by
law to be levied and collected in the district and shall not be included within
any
limitation of rate contained in this Act or any other law, but shall be
excluded therefrom,
in addition thereto, and in excess thereof.
