Summary

Amends the Township Code. Provides that a township may levy a tax for the purpose of providing facilities or services for the benefit of certain residents who have developmental disabilities by the following procedures: (1) by certification of the question to the proper election officials, who shall submit the proposition at an election under the general election law (which is the current law); or (2) by adopting an ordinance or resolution levying the tax and causing the ordinance or resolution to be published with certain information included. Provides that, when a township adopts the levy by ordinance or resolution, any taxpayer in the township may, within 30 days after publication, file with the township clerk a petition signed by 10% or more of the registered voters in the county, requesting the submission of a referendum to voters in the county. Provides that, when a levy is adopted by resolution or ordinance, the town clerk must provide a petition form to anyone requesting one and, if no valid petition is filed or the proposition is approved at referendum, the tax levy is authorized. Provides that, under either method, the tax may be in excess of the rate for other township purposes. Effective immediately.
