Bill Summary

Amends the Property Tax Code. In provisions allowing for an expanded board of review in emergency cases, removes provisions providing that, in Lake, DuPage, McHenry, or Kane County, the chairman of the county board may appoint qualified residents of counties that are directly adjacent to that chairman's county to serve as additional members of the expanded board of review. Effective immediately.

AI Summary

This bill amends the Property Tax Code by modifying provisions related to expanding county boards of review during emergency situations. Specifically, the bill removes language that previously allowed county board chairmen in Lake, DuPage, McHenry, and Kane Counties to appoint qualified residents from directly adjacent counties as additional members of an expanded board of review. The existing law already permits county board chairmen to appoint additional qualified members to a board of review when an emergency situation occurs, such as an unusually high number of property tax complaints. Under the current law, these additional members can hold separate hearings on complaints but cannot participate in the county's equalization process. The bill eliminates the specific provision that allowed for cross-county appointments in those four counties, effectively restricting board of review appointments to residents within the same county. The bill is effective immediately upon becoming law.
