(60 ILCS 1/182‑5)
Sec. 182‑5.
Primary health care special district; tax.
(a) In any township in a county with a population of 25,000 or less
containing a federally designated health manpower shortage area, the township
board may provide for primary health care under an intergovernmental
cooperation agreement with another unit of local government or under contract
with physicians, a physician group, a professional service corporation, a
medical corporation, a health maintenance organization, a voluntary health
service plan, a limited health service plan, a hospital for out‑patient
services, or a federally qualified health center.
(b) For purposes described in subsection (a), the township board may levy an
annual tax of not more than 0.095% of the value of all the taxable property in
the township, as equalized or assessed by the Department of Revenue, upon that
property. Before a tax may be levied under this Section, the township board
shall certify that question to the proper election officials in accordance with
General Election Law, who shall submit the proposition by referendum to all the
voters in the area to be served. The referendum shall be in substantially the
following form:
Shall (name of township) be authorized to levy an annual tax of not more than
0.095% of the value of all the taxable property in the township to provide
primary health care to its citizens?
The votes shall be recorded as "Yes" or "No".
If the majority of the voters voting on the proposition vote in favor of it,
the tax levy is authorized. If a majority of the vote is against the
proposition, the tax levy is not authorized. No tax may be levied under this
Section, however, with respect to any property that is subject to any other tax
levied for the sole purpose of providing primary health care.
(c) Any territory of a special primary health care district that is annexed
to a municipality that provides primary health care within its corporate limits
shall be automatically disconnected from the township primary health care
district.
