Illinois Compiled Statutes
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.

(65 ILCS 5/11-45.1-4) (from Ch. 24, par. 11-45.1-4)
Sec. 11-45.1-4.
Any municipality may levy a tax annually not to exceed .25% of the
value, as equalized or assessed by the Department of Revenue, of all
the taxable property in the municipality for the purpose
of acquiring, operating and maintaining a cultural center, provided that
no such tax shall be levied in any such municipality until the question
of levying the tax has first been submitted to the electors of that
municipality at any election, and the tax has been approved by a majority of the
electors voting thereon. Such question shall be certified by the municipal
clerk and submitted by the proper election authority. If a majority of
the electors of the
municipality voting thereon vote for the levy of the tax, the
municipality is authorized to levy and collect the tax. This tax shall
be in addition to all other taxes which that municipality is now or
hereafter may be authorized to levy on the taxable property within the
municipality and shall be in addition to taxes for general purposes
authorized to be levied, as provided by Section 8-3-1 of this Code. This
tax shall be levied and collected in like manner as the general taxes
for that municipality.

For the purpose of acquiring and constructing a cultural center as
provided in this division, or for the equipping of any such cultural
center, any municipality may borrow money and issue its negotiable bonds
thereon, pledging the full faith and credit of the municipality. Such
bonds shall bear interest at not to exceed
the maximum rate authorized by the Bond Authorization Act, as amended at the
time of the making of the contract, but no such
bonds shall be issued unless the proposition to issue the bonds is first
submitted to the electors of the municipality and approved by a majority
of the electors voting thereon. The municipal clerk shall certify the
proposition to the proper election authority who shall submit the proposition
to a vote of the electors. The form of such proposition shall be in
accordance with the provisions of Section 8-4-2 of this Code.
With respect to instruments for the payment of money issued under this
Section either before, on, or after the effective date of this amendatory
Act of 1989, it is and always has been the intention of the General
Assembly (i) that the Omnibus Bond Acts are and always have been
supplementary grants of power to issue instruments in accordance with the
Omnibus Bond Acts, regardless of any provision of this Act that may appear
to be or to have been more restrictive than those Acts, (ii) that the
provisions of this Section are not a limitation on the supplementary
authority granted by the Omnibus Bond Acts, and (iii) that instruments
issued under this Section within the supplementary authority granted by the
Omnibus Bond Acts are not invalid because of any provision of this Act that
may appear to be or to have been more restrictive than those Acts.

the invalid application or provision. To this end the provisions of this
division are declared to be severable.
