 7        (35 ILCS 200/10-60)
 8        Sec. 10-60.  Certificate of status.  It is  the  duty  of
 9    the  titleholder  of  record  or  the owner of the beneficial
10    interest of any historic building that which has been  issued
11    a  certificate  of  rehabilitation,  to  file  with the chief
12    county assessment officer, on or before January  31  of  each
13    year,  an affidavit stating whether there has been any change
14    in the ownership or use of such property, the status  of  the
15    owner-occupant,  or,  in  the  case of a cooperative, whether
16    there has been a change in the  use  of  the  property  or  a
17    change  in  the  cooperative form of ownership.  If there has
18    been such a change,  the  nature  of  this  change  shall  be
19    stated.  Failure  to  file  such  an  affidavit shall, in the
20    discretion of the chief county assessment officer, constitute
21    cause to revoke the certificate of rehabilitation. The  chief
22    county  assessment  officer shall furnish to the owner a form
23    for the affidavit wherein the owner may state  whether  there
24    has  been  any change in the ownership or use of the property
25    or the status of the owner. If the  chief  county  assessment
26    officer  determines  that  the historic building is no longer
27    used as an owner-occupied single family  residence,  or  that
28    there  has  been a sale or transfer for value of the historic
29    building other than to the  first  owner-occupant  after  the
30    issuance  of  a  certificate  of  rehabilitation, or that the
31    historic  building  no  longer  meets  the  definition  of  a
                            -2-                LRB9000119KRkb
 1    cooperative, he  or  she  shall  revoke  the  certificate  by
 2    written  notice  to  the taxpayer of record, and shall send a
 3    copy of that notice to the Department.
