Illinois Code § 3-33.5

§ 3-33.5.

All monies derived from the issuance of bonds under Section 3-33.2 when received by the community college treasurer, shall be set apart in the working cash fund and used in the manner provided in this Section. The monies in such fund shall not be regarded as current assets available for appropriation and may not be appropriated by the board in the annual community college budget. The board may appropriate monies to the working cash fund up to the maximum amount allowable in the fund, and the working cash fund may receive such appropriations and any other contributions. In order to provide monies with which to meet ordinary and necessary disbursements for educational and operations and maintenance of facilities purposes, such monies may be transferred, in whole or in part, to the educational purposes or operations and maintenance purposes fund of the board, or to both, and so disbursed therefrom (a) in anticipation of the collection of that part of the taxes so levied which is in excess of the amount or amounts thereof required to pay any warrants, and the interest thereon, theretofore or thereafter issued under this Act, (b) in anticipation of the receipt by the district of monies from the State, Federal government or other sources or (c) in anticipation of such taxes, as by law now or hereafter enacted or amended, imposed by the General Assembly of the State of Illinois 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. Such taxes levied or to be received for educational or operations and maintenance of facilities purposes when collected shall be applied first to the payment of any such warrants or notes and the interest thereon and then to the reimbursement of the working cash fund as hereinafter provided. Such monies from the State, Federal government and other sources, when received, shall be used to reimburse the working cash fund to the extent transfers therefrom were made in anticipation thereof. If taxes in anticipation of the collection of which such transfers are made are not collected in sufficient amounts to effect a complete reimbursement of the working cash fund of the amounts transferred from the working cash fund to the educational fund and operations and maintenance fund the deficiencies between the amounts thus transferred and the amounts repaid from collections shall be general obligations of the educational fund and operations and maintenance fund until repaid either from taxes in anticipation of which transfers were made or from appropriations which may be made in annual community college budgets of sums of money to apply on such general obligations, or until repaid from both the taxes in anticipation of which such transfers were made and from appropriations which may be made in annual community college budgets of sums of money to apply on such general obligations.
