Sec. 5. Purpose. The General Assembly finds that it is in the interest of the State of Illinois to promote the economic revitalization and physical maintenance of business districts in order to create jobs, attract new businesses, retain existing businesses, increase public safety, and spur new investments. The General Assembly finds that this purpose may best be accomplished by allowing business improvement districts to fund business-related activities and improvements through the levy of district charges upon the owners of real property that receive benefits from those activities and improvements.
