§ 3A-7.

(from Ch. 122, par. 3A-7) Sec. 3A-7. Expenses of regional office - Budget. When 2 or more regions have been consolidated into a single educational service region, the costs of secretarial service, office space and other expenses necessarily incurred in the operation of the office of the regional superintendent shall be allocated to and borne by the counties comprising the region in the proportion that the equalized and assessed value of the taxable property in the county bears to the total equalized and assessed value of all taxable property in the region. For the purposes of calculating equalized assessed valuation of taxable property under this Section for any tax year beginning January 1, 1981 or thereafter, the equalized assessed valuation for a county shall be determined by adding to the real property equalized assessed valuation for the county an amount computed by dividing the amount of money received by the county under the provisions of "An Act in relation to the abolition of ad valorem personal property tax and the replacement of revenues lost thereby, and amending and repealing certain Acts and parts of Acts in connection therewith", certified August 14, 1979, as amended, by the total tax rate for the county. By October 1 annually, the regional superintendent shall prepare a budget, setting out the anticipated income for his educational service region and a statement of the costs of secretarial services, office space and other expenses to be incurred in the operation of his office, and shall submit that budget to the county board of each of the counties in his region for approval. No such costs or expenses may be incurred except pursuant to that budget as approved by each of the county boards concerned. The budget may be amended, modified or supplemented upon the vote of a 2/3 majority of each of those county boards. (Source: P.A. 82-646.)
