Section 530

Section 530.201  Purpose of

the Property Tax Relief Program

The Senior Citizens and Disabled

Persons Property Tax Relief and Pharmaceutical Assistance Act (Act) [320 ILCS

25] provides for the establishment of a program of property tax relief

("Circuit Breaker") to be administered by the Illinois Department of

Revenue.

The purpose for this program is to provide incentives to low-income

senior citizens and disabled persons to acquire and retain private housing of

their choice and at the same time to relieve those citizens from the burdens of

extraordinary property taxes against their increasingly restricted earning

power, and thereby to reduce the requirements for public housing in Illinois.
