(110 ILCS 805/5-6) (from Ch. 122, par. 105-6)
Sec. 5-6.
Any community college district may, as a part of its 25%
contribution for building purposes, contribute real property situated within
the geographical boundaries of such community college district at market value
as determined at the time the contribution is made to the Capital Development
Board in accordance with the program and budget, the plan as approved by
the State Board by 3 licensed appraisers,
except that where a community college district has acquired
such lands without cost or for a consideration substantially less
than the market value thereof at the time of acquisition, the amount
of the community college district's contribution for the land shall
be limited (a) to the difference, if any, between the appraised market
value at the time of acquisition and the appraised market value
at the time the contribution is made to the Capital Development
Board, if the grantor is the Federal government, (except that no property
acquired prior to December 18, 1975 shall
be affected by the provisions of this Section), or any department,
agency, board or commission thereof or (b) to the actual amount, if
any, of the consideration paid for the land if the grantor is the
State of Illinois or any department, agency, board or commission thereof.
In the event the highest appraisal exceeds the average of the
other two appraisals by more than 10%, such appraisal shall not be
considered in determining the market value of the land and a new
appraiser shall be appointed by the State Board, who shall re-appraise
the land. The re-appraisal shall then become the third appraisal as
required by this Section. The cost of the appraisement shall be
paid by the community college district.

purposes any real property
it may own, either improved or unimproved, situated within the geographical
boundaries of such community college district, or both, in an amount equal
to at least 25% of the total amount necessary to finance the project,
except that no real property may be so designated, unless prior
to its acquisition by the community college district after December 18,
1975 the Capital Development Board has had an
opportunity to evaluate the land and issue a report concerning its
suitability for construction purposes.

Prior to approval to proceed beyond the design development stage or to advertising the first bid package of a phased-bid project, whichever comes first, the community college board shall transfer funds to the Capital Development Board in an amount equal to the balance of the local share of the total project cost. For the purposes of this Section,
the proceeds derived from the sale of bonds as provided in this Act, any
lands designated as all or part of the 25% contribution by the community
college district or any other money available to the community college for

the community college district shall reimburse the State of Illinois for
any funds provided by the State to correct building defects.
No provision of this Section shall preclude or delay litigation by a community
college district to recover damages for such defective design or construction
from the party or parties responsible for same.
