§ 5-400.
Charter school construction grants. (a) The Capital Development Board is authorized to make grants to charter schools, as authorized by Article 27A of the School Code, 105 ILCS 5/Art. 27A, for construction projects. The grants shall be paid out of moneys appropriated for that purpose from the Build Illinois Bond Fund. A charter school and other eligible entities have no entitlement to a grant under this Section. (b) The Capital Development Board shall adopt rules to implement this Section. These rules need not be the same as the rules for school construction project grants or school maintenance project grants. The rules may specify: (1) the manner of applying for grants; (2) project eligibility requirements; (3) restrictions on the use of grant moneys; (4) the manner in which school districts must account for the use of grant moneys; and (5) any other provision that the Capital Development Board determines to be necessary or useful for the administration of this Section. With respect to those school construction projects for which a charter school applies for a grant on or after July 1, 2009, the school construction project must receive silver certification from the United States Green Building Council's Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design Green Building Rating System.
