 1                    AMENDMENT TO SENATE BILL 1650

 2        AMENDMENT NO.     .  Amend Senate Bill 1650, AS  AMENDED,
 3    immediately before Article 99, by inserting the following:

 4                             "ARTICLE 10

 5        Section  10-1.  Short title. This Article may be cited as
 6    the Public Library District Tax Levy Validation (2002) Law.

 7        Section 10-5. Tax levy ordinances in  districts  of  less
 8    than  500,000 during fiscal years 2001 and 2002. In all cases
 9    where a board of trustees of a public library district with a
10    population of less than 500,000 inhabitants has,  during  the
11    fiscal  years  2001 and 2002, within the time required by law
12    adopted annual appropriation ordinances for those  years  but
13    failed  to  adopt  its  annual tax levy ordinance for the tax
14    year 2001 (collectible in 2002), but adopts its 2001 tax levy
15    or a supplemental or deficiency 2001 tax levy,  or  both,  by
16    the  last  Tuesday  of December 2002, and duly files the same
17    with the county clerk of the county in which the district  is
18    located,  then  any such tax levy ordinances and supplemental
19    or deficiency tax levy  ordinance  and  the  taxes  assessed,
20    levied,   and   extended   thereon   are   hereby   validated
21    notwithstanding  any  failure  to  comply  with  the Truth in
 
                            -2-            LRB9216186SMksam02
 1    Taxation Law or the Cook County Truth  in  Taxation  Law  and
 2    further  notwithstanding  any  failure  to  comply  with  the
 3    provisions  of  the  Property Tax Extension Limitation Law or
 4    any other law. No 2001 tax levy or supplemental or deficiency
 5    levy, however, is validated  to  the  extent  it  would  have
 6    exceeded  the  maximum  amount the district could have levied
 7    under the Property Tax Extension Limitation Law  if  the  tax
 8    levy  ordinance  or supplemental or deficiency levy ordinance
 9    had been adopted and filed in due time in calendar year 2001.
10    Any such tax levy or supplemental or deficiency levy shall be
11    extended by the county clerk  of  the  county  in  which  the
12    public  library  district  is located by adding the amount of
13    the 2001 tax levy or supplemental or deficiency levy  to  the
14    district's  validly  enacted  2002  tax  levy,  regardless of
15    whether that 2001 tax levy is in  the  form  of  a  customary
16    annual  tax  levy  or  in  the  form  of  a  supplemental  or
17    deficiency  tax  levy. Moreover, if the district has received
18    any tax revenue for the calendar year 2001 intended  for  the
19    payment of principal and interest on outstanding bonds of the
20    district and the district has used any portion or all of that
21    tax  revenue for normal operating expenses, that use of those
22    funds is hereby validated if the district issues  either  tax
23    anticipation warrants or notes to provide funds sufficient to
24    replace  that  bond revenue used for operating expenses prior
25    to default on any bond payments;  further,  the  use  of  the
26    proceeds  of  the issuance of those notes or warrants to make
27    the bond payments when due is further hereby validated.

28        Section 10-905. The  Property  Tax  Code  is  amended  by
29    adding Sections 18-92, 18-101.47, and 18-197 as follows:

                            -3-            LRB9216186SMksam02
 1    subject  to  the  Public Library District Tax Levy Validation
 2    (2002) Law.

 7    Levy Validation (2002) Law.

 8        (35 ILCS 200/18-197 new)
 9        Sec.  18-197.  Public  Library  District  Tax Levy (2002)

12    Levy Validation (2002) Law.".
