A BILL FOR
HB4695 LRB103 36311 HLH 66409 b
AN ACT concerning revenue.
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
represented in the General Assembly:
Section 5. The Property Tax Code is amended by changing
Section 18-185 and by adding Section 18-50.3 as follows:
(35 ILCS 200/18-50.3 new)
Sec. 18-50.3. Limitation on tax extensions.
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, beginning in
taxable year 2025, prior to calculating the aggregate
extension for any taxing district that is subject to a maximum
extension limitation under any provision of law, the county
clerk shall determine the change in the taxing district's
population when compared with the taxing district's population
in the immediately preceding taxable year using the population
estimates prepared by the United States Census Bureau. If the
county clerk determines that the population of the taxing
district has decreased, the county clerk shall extend for that
taxing district a rate against all taxable property in the
taxing district that generates an amount that does not exceed
the lesser of (i) the taxing district's aggregate extension
for the taxable year or (ii) the taxing district's maximum
aggregate extension for the taxable year, multiplied by 1
minus the percentage decrease in the taxing district's

HB4695 - 2 - LRB103 36311 HLH 66409 b
population when compared with the taxing district's population
in the immediately preceding taxable year.
As used in this Section:
"Aggregate extension" means the annual corporate extension
for the taxing district and those special purpose extensions
that are made annually for the taxing district.
"Maximum aggregate extension" means the maximum amount
that the taxing district is allowed to extend by law without
regard to the adjustment under this Section.
(35 ILCS 200/18-185)
Sec. 18-185. Short title; definitions. This Division 5
may be cited as the Property Tax Extension Limitation Law. As
used in this Division 5:
"Consumer Price Index" means the Consumer Price Index for
All Urban Consumers for all items published by the United
States Department of Labor.
"Extension limitation" means (a) the lesser of 5% or the
percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index during the
12-month calendar year preceding the levy year or (b) the rate
of increase approved by voters under Section 18-205.
"Affected county" means a county of 3,000,000 or more
inhabitants or a county contiguous to a county of 3,000,000 or

levy year in which this Law becomes applicable to a taxing
district as provided in Section 18-213, "taxing district" also

in the over or under extension of taxes, or (ii) increased or
decreased the tax extension for the last preceding levy year
as required by Section 18-135(c). Whenever an adjustment is
required under Section 18-135, the aggregate extension base of
the taxing district shall be equal to the amount that the
aggregate extension of the taxing district would have been for
the last preceding levy year if either or both (i) actual,
rather than estimated, valuations or rates had been used to
calculate the extension of taxes for the last levy year, or
(ii) the tax extension for the last preceding levy year had not
been adjusted as required by subsection (c) of Section 18-135.

HB4695 - 16 - LRB103 36311 HLH 66409 b

levied a property tax for levy year 2021.
"Levy year" has the same meaning as "year" under Section
1-155.
"New property" means (i) the assessed value, after final
board of review or board of appeals action, of new
improvements or additions to existing improvements on any
parcel of real property that increase the assessed value of
that real property during the levy year multiplied by the
equalization factor issued by the Department under Section
17-30, (ii) the assessed value, after final board of review or
board of appeals action, of real property not exempt from real
estate taxation, which real property was exempt from real
estate taxation for any portion of the immediately preceding
levy year, multiplied by the equalization factor issued by the
Department under Section 17-30, including the assessed value,
upon final stabilization of occupancy after new construction
is complete, of any real property located within the

HB4695 - 17 - LRB103 36311 HLH 66409 b

assessed value due to oil or gas production from an oil or gas
well required to be permitted under the Hydraulic Fracturing
Regulatory Act that was not produced in or accounted for
during the previous levy year. In addition, the county clerk
in a county containing a population of 3,000,000 or more shall
include in the 1997 recovered tax increment value for any
school district, any recovered tax increment value that was
applicable to the 1995 tax year calculations.
"Qualified airport authority" means an airport authority
organized under the Airport Authorities Act and located in a
county bordering on the State of Wisconsin and having a
population in excess of 200,000 and not greater than 500,000.
"Recovered tax increment value" means, except as otherwise
provided in this paragraph, the amount of the current year's
equalized assessed value, in the first year after a
municipality terminates the designation of an area as a
redevelopment project area previously established under the
Tax Increment Allocation Redevelopment Act in the Illinois

HB4695 - 18 - LRB103 36311 HLH 66409 b
Municipal Code, previously established under the Industrial
Jobs Recovery Law in the Illinois Municipal Code, previously
established under the Economic Development Project Area Tax
Increment Act of 1995, or previously established under the
Economic Development Area Tax Increment Allocation Act, of
each taxable lot, block, tract, or parcel of real property in
the redevelopment project area over and above the initial
equalized assessed value of each property in the redevelopment
project area. For the taxes which are extended for the 1997
levy year, the recovered tax increment value for a non-home
rule taxing district that first became subject to this Law for
the 1995 levy year because a majority of its 1994 equalized
assessed value was in an affected county or counties shall be
increased if a municipality terminated the designation of an
area in 1993 as a redevelopment project area previously
established under the Tax Increment Allocation Redevelopment
Act in the Illinois Municipal Code, previously established
under the Industrial Jobs Recovery Law in the Illinois
Municipal Code, or previously established under the Economic
Development Area Tax Increment Allocation Act, by an amount
equal to the 1994 equalized assessed value of each taxable
lot, block, tract, or parcel of real property in the
redevelopment project area over and above the initial
equalized assessed value of each property in the redevelopment
project area. In the first year after a municipality removes a
taxable lot, block, tract, or parcel of real property from a

HB4695 - 19 - LRB103 36311 HLH 66409 b
redevelopment project area established under the Tax Increment
Allocation Redevelopment Act in the Illinois Municipal Code,
the Industrial Jobs Recovery Law in the Illinois Municipal
Code, or the Economic Development Area Tax Increment
Allocation Act, "recovered tax increment value" means the
amount of the current year's equalized assessed value of each
taxable lot, block, tract, or parcel of real property removed
from the redevelopment project area over and above the initial
equalized assessed value of that real property before removal
from the redevelopment project area.
Except as otherwise provided in this Section, "limiting
rate" means a fraction the numerator of which is the last
preceding aggregate extension base times an amount equal to
one plus the extension limitation defined in this Section and
the denominator of which is the current year's equalized
assessed value of all real property in the territory under the
jurisdiction of the taxing district during the prior levy
year. For those taxing districts that reduced their aggregate
extension for the last preceding levy year, except for school
districts that reduced their extension for educational
purposes pursuant to Section 18-206, the highest aggregate
extension in any of the last 3 preceding levy years shall be
used for the purpose of computing the limiting rate. The
denominator shall not include new property or the recovered
tax increment value. If a new rate, a rate decrease, or a
limiting rate increase has been approved at an election held

HB4695 - 20 - LRB103 36311 HLH 66409 b
after March 21, 2006, then (i) the otherwise applicable
limiting rate shall be increased by the amount of the new rate
or shall be reduced by the amount of the rate decrease, as the
case may be, or (ii) in the case of a limiting rate increase,
the limiting rate shall be equal to the rate set forth in the
proposition approved by the voters for each of the years
specified in the proposition, after which the limiting rate of
the taxing district shall be calculated as otherwise provided.
In the case of a taxing district that obtained referendum
approval for an increased limiting rate on March 20, 2012, the
limiting rate for tax year 2012 shall be the rate that
generates the approximate total amount of taxes extendable for
that tax year, as set forth in the proposition approved by the
voters; this rate shall be the final rate applied by the county
clerk for the aggregate of all capped funds of the district for
tax year 2012. For taxable years 2024 and thereafter, the
limiting rate is subject to adjustment under Section 18-50.3.
