Youth orchestra members receive awards Senior citizens who hg&e temporarily vacated their homes would no longer lose their Homestead Exemptions, under legislation passed recently by the Illinois House of Representatives. House Bill 4%, sponsored by State Rep. Dick Klemm (R-63rd), passed the House 106-0, and now goes to the Senate for consideration. "Often, single or widowed senior citizens find they must check into a nursing home for a time following an illness or hospitalization," said Klemm. "But they usually plan on returning home within a short time. Yet the law, as " it currently stands, removes the Homestead Exemption from their property because the eligible person is no longer living within the home. With this measure, the senior citizen keeps the Homestead Exemp tion, just as long as the home Under current law, senior citizens who enter a nursing home keep the Homestead Exemption, if their spouse, age 65 or older, continues to occupy the home. House Bill 4% amends the Re venue Act of 1939 to also , provide that the Homestead Exemption for persons 65 years of age or older continues if that person enters a nursing home and continues to own the residence, with the residence remaining unoc cupied. "This is not only a good bill for our senior citizens," said Klemm. "It is also a good bill for the state, because it con tinues our commitment to our senior citizens. And, as a bonus, we eliminate the needless paperwork involved with reinstituting the Exemptions for these people, saving both time and money."
