(70 ILCS 1205/11.2-4) (from Ch. 105, par. 11.2-4)
Sec. 11.2-4. This Section shall not apply in any park district which does not operate a working cash fund. Monies shall be transferred from the working cash fund to the general funds of the district only upon the authority of the governing board which shall from time to time by separate resolution direct the treasurer to make transfers of such sums as may be required for the purposes herein authorized.
Every such resolution shall set forth (a) the taxes in anticipation of which such transfer is to be made and from which the working cash fund is to be reimbursed; (b) the entire amount of taxes extended or which the governing board estimates will be extended or received, for any year, in anticipation of the collection of all or part of which such transfer is to be made; (c) the aggregate amount of warrants or notes theretofore issued in anticipation of the collection of such taxes together with the amount of interest accrued or which the governing board estimates will accrue thereon, (d) the aggregate amount of receipts from taxes imposed to replace revenue lost by units of local government and school districts as a result of the abolition of ad valorem personal property taxes, pursuant to Article IX, Section 5(c) of the Constitution of the State of Illinois, which the corporate authorities estimate will be set aside for the payment of the proportionate amount of debt service and pension or retirement obligations, as required by Section 12 of "An Act in relation to State Revenue Sharing with local government entities", approved July 31, 1969, as amended, and (e) the aggregate amount of monies theretofore transferred from the working cash fund to the general corporate fund of the district in anticipation of the collection of such taxes. The amount which any such resolution shall direct the treasurer to transfer, in anticipation of the collection of taxes levied or to be received for any year, together with the aggregate amount of such anticipation tax warrants or notes theretofore drawn against such taxes and the amount of interest accrued and estimated to accrue thereon and the aggregate amount of receipts from taxes imposed to replace revenue lost by units of local government and school districts as a result of the abolition of ad valorem personal property taxes, pursuant to Article IX, Section 5(c) of the Constitution of the State of Illinois, which the corporate authorities estimate will be set aside for the payment of the proportionate amount of debt service and pension or retirement obligations, as required by Section 12 of "An Act in relation to State Revenue Sharing with local government entities", approved July 31, 1969, as amended, and the aggregate amount of such transfers to be made in anticipation of the collection of such taxes shall not exceed 75% of the actual or estimated amount of such taxes extended or to be extended or to be received as set forth in such resolution. At any time moneys are available in the working cash fund they shall be transferred to the general funds of the district and disbursed for the payment of salaries and other corporate expenses so as to avoid, whenever possible, the issuance of anticipation tax warrants or notes.
Temporarily idle monies in the working cash fund may be invested as directed by the governing board of the park district, and the interest earnings on such investments may, at the option of the board, be either transferred permanently to the general corporate fund or be allowed to remain in the working cash fund. If such interest earnings remain in the working cash fund, they will serve to increase the balance of the working cash fund available for loans, but in no event may the balance of that fund be allowed to exceed the statutory maximum for the fund established in this Section.
