80	80	4 (c) Personal information contained within public

82	82	6 clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy, unless
83	83	7 the disclosure is consented to in writing by the
84	84	8 individual subjects of the information. "Unwarranted
85	85	9 invasion of personal privacy" means the disclosure of
86	86	10 information that is highly personal or objectionable to a
87	87	11 reasonable person and in which the subject's right to
88	88	12 privacy outweighs any legitimate public interest in
89	89	13 obtaining the information. The disclosure of information
90	90	14 that bears on the public duties of public employees and
91	91	15 officials shall not be considered an invasion of personal
92	92	16 privacy.

94	94	18 created in the course of administrative enforcement
95	95	19 proceedings, and any law enforcement or correctional

97	97	21 extent that disclosure would:
98	98	22 (i) interfere with pending or actually and
99	99	23 reasonably contemplated law enforcement proceedings
100	100	24 conducted by any law enforcement or correctional
101	101	25 agency that is the recipient of the request;

117	117	5 hearing;

124	124	12 witnesses to traffic crashes, traffic crash reports,

127	127	15 interfere with an active criminal investigation
128	128	16 conducted by the agency that is the recipient of the
129	129	17 request;
130	130	18 (v) disclose unique or specialized investigative
131	131	19 techniques other than those generally used and known
132	132	20 or disclose internal documents of correctional
133	133	21 agencies related to detection, observation, or
134	134	22 investigation of incidents of crime or misconduct, and
135	135	23 disclosure would result in demonstrable harm to the

831	831	3 physical descriptions of their properties with the chief
832	832	4 county assessment officer in the form and manner determined by
833	833	5 the chief county assessment officer. Such a filing by the
834	834	6 owner is required only after the chief county assessment

836	836	8 information. That notice shall include an individualized
837	837	9 statement specifying all physical description information that

840	840	12 confirm the information if no changes are required. A filing
841	841	13 by the owner that no changes are required is compliance with
842	842	14 the request for information. The notice shall include
843	843	15 description records or a link to an Internet resource of
844	844	16 description records for that property.
845	845	17 (d) A request for information under subsection (c) may be
846	846	18 issued with respect to a property only once during one general
847	847	19 reassessment cycle for the property. A response to the request
848	848	20 for information shall be submitted to the chief county
849	849	21 assessment officer within 90 days after the chief county
850	850	22 assessment officer mails the notice to the property owner
851	851	23 under subsection (c).
852	852	24 (e) If, upon receiving a request for information under

854	854	26 required physical description within 90 days after the chief

865	865	1 county assessment officer mails the notice to the property
866	866	2 owner and fails to adequately explain why no submission is
867	867	3 required, the owner shall pay a penalty to the chief county
868	868	4 assessment officer as determined by the chief county
869	869	5 assessment officer of up to 0.025% of the prior year's market
870	870	6 value for the property at issue, as indicated by the most
871	871	7 recent certified assessed value, but in no case shall the
872	872	8 owner be required to pay more than a maximum penalty of $1,000
873	873	9 per property. All penalties under this Section shall be
874	874	10 deposited into the county's general fund or as otherwise
875	875	11 allocated by the county board. The penalty under this Section
876	876	12 shall be waived if, upon notice of failure to file and the
877	877	13 imposition of the penalty, the owner provides the requested
878	878	14 physical descriptions within 30 days after the postmark date
879	879	15 of the notice of failure to file and the imposition of the
880	880	16 penalty. An owner who responds to a request for information
881	881	17 received under this Section with good faith efforts based on
882	882	18 reasonable information and belief, or who, upon diligent
883	883	19 investigation, is unable to provide specific requested
884	884	20 information and provides an answer to this effect, shall be
885	885	21 determined to be in substantial compliance with this Section
886	886	22 and shall not be subject to a penalty. Responses to requests

904	904	4 inconsistencies and be deemed to have responded in good faith,
905	905	5 and any inconsistencies related to documents from the sale or
906	906	6 transfer of the property prepared by a prior owner shall not be
907	907	7 attributable to the current owner. The chief county assessment
908	908	8 officer shall review all submissions and determine whether the
909	909	9 owner provided sufficient evidence that the owner was not
910	910	10 required to report a property description or that the
911	911	11 submission complies based on available documentation.
912	912	12 (f) If a party is dissatisfied with a decision of the chief
913	913	13 county assessment officer, the party may request review of
914	914	14 that decision. Upon such a request, at least 30 days' notice
915	915	15 shall be provided to the party of a hearing to be conducted by
916	916	16 a hearing officer designated by the chief county assessment
917	917	17 officer. If a party is dissatisfied with a hearing officer's
918	918	18 decision, the party may appeal that decision to the circuit
919	919	19 court of the county in which the property is located as a final
920	920	20 administrative decision under the Administrative Review Law.
921	921	21 If a party is unsuccessful at hearing, the penalty imposed
922	922	22 under this Section shall bear interest at 0.05% per month

924	924	24 or 21 days after the date of the issuance of a final decision
