Pat Quinn
Governor
February 22, 2012
To the Honorable Members of the General Assembly and the People of the State of Illinois:
I respectfully submit to you the fiscal year 2013 capital budget, which demonstrates the significant progress we have made
in creating jobs, supporting business and growing our economy through Illinois Jobs Now!, the state’s first capital program
in nearly a decade. This $31 billion plan is boosting our economy, improving our infrastructure, increasing energy
efficiency, and will continue to create and support hundreds of thousands jobs over the next several years.
Our goal is long-term economic stability, and we are using every available resource to support businesses and put people
back to work. Illinois’ construction season will kick off in the weeks ahead, putting tens of thousands of people to work on
projects to improve infrastructure all over the state. An estimated $1.3 billion in IJN! investments will go toward easing
congestion by repairing roads, bridges, transit and rail in the coming fiscal year. To date, we have improved 5,948 miles
of highways and 842 bridges. In southern Illinois, we are building new lanes on Route 13, in Rockford a new Morgan
Street Bridge and in East Peoria we are building Technology Boulevard.
We are continuing to focus on the completion of high-speed rail. A demonstration section on the Chicago to St. Louis
corridor between Dwight and Pontiac will be fully operational this fall. We remain committed to attracting the financial
resources necessary to make Illinois the high-speed rail capital of the Midwest.
But we must continue to do more. While we are making significant investments in our students’ school buildings,
increasing sustainability and energy efficiency, we need a bold vision to ensure our next generation is never left behind.
Schools desperately need help bringing their classrooms into the 21st century allowing us to prepare our young people for
the jobs of today and tomorrow. Our water systems have billions of dollars of needed upgrades which are slowing growth
in our communities and putting our residents’ health at risk. State facilities are crumbling, inefficient and costly due to the
lack of basic maintenance dollars. To this end, I am proposing investing in more schools, water and even more efficient
government.
All of these efforts are putting us in an even better position to take advantage of our state's existing opportunities: a
location that has made Illinois the hub of the nation's rail network and the aviation gateway to the world, an unmatched
transportation infrastructure that makes Illinois the distribution center of North America, world-class universities and
research institutions attracting the finest minds, and a long-standing place as one of the world's top financial centers.
Businesses from around the country and across the world are recognizing what we have known for some time: Illinois is a
great place to do business. Major corporations--such as Chrysler, Ford, Mitsubishi, and Navistar, along with innovators
such as Groupon—are choosing to continue investing in Illinois. Our efforts are helping us compete in the global
economy, and we will continue working with businesses to help them expand in Illinois.
These proposals are just the beginning of the continuing revitalization of Illinois’ economy. As Illinois’ Jobs Governor, I am
committed to building new infrastructure, creating good-paying jobs and Moving Illinois Forward. We need the General
Assembly's continued strong support to ensure that this jobs program continues for years to come. Together, we
can show the world what the great people of Illinois can build and why Illinois remains a national and global leader.
Sincerely,
Pat Quinn
Governor, State of Illinois

INTRODUCTION
The governor’s capital budget plan improves the quality of life for all citizens and creates jobs in every
region of the state. The Illinois Jobs Now! (IJN!) capital plan is now in its third full year and has a wide
range of project types and focuses on creating jobs and enhancing state services. This chapter contains
brief explanations of how the budget is planned, determined and executed.
As required by the Illinois Constitution, the Governor’s Office presents a capital budget with
recommended spending levels for state agencies, estimated revenues and the status of state liabilities.
By statute, the Governor’s Office of Management and Budget (GOMB) is the unit within the Governor’s
Office that is responsible for estimating revenues and developing recommendations that reflect
programmatic and spending priorities.
WHAT IS THE CAPITAL BUDGET?
The capital budget provides an investment plan for the State of Illinois by identifying infrastructure
projects with a multi-year economic lifespan. Eligible projects include roads and bridges, transit and rail
systems, aeronautics, schools, environmental protection, energy programs, economic development,
information technology infrastructure, and state facility improvements.
WHY SUBMIT A SEPARATE CAPITAL BUDGET?
The state fiscal year begins on July 1st. While the capital and operating budgets use the same fiscal year
and follow similar appropriation procedures, the capital budget is presented as a separate document for
clarity. Both documents are available online at www.state.il.us/budget.
The operating budget provides funding for day-to-day operations of the state, while the capital budget
funds long-term programs. Because of the complex design phases, procurement processes and multi-year
spending, capital recommendations should not be interpreted in the same way as operating
appropriations. The major planning differences between capital and operating budgets are summarized
in Appendix A, Table 1. Key benefits of submitting a separate budget include:
 Accountability and disclosure. Allows the public and legislators to
clearly see how capital dollars are spent.
 Project monitoring. Facilitates tracking and management of
projects over multiple fiscal years.
 Identification of revenue sources. Details revenue streams used
to pay for capital projects. These revenue streams are presented in
Appendix A, Charts 3 - 6.

HOW IS A CAPITAL BUDGET CREATED?
GOMB works with state agencies to review potential capital investments and projects. Agencies with
large capital programs include the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT), the Department of
Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO), and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). For
improvements or new construction of state facilities, teams of architects and engineers at the Capital
Development Board (CDB) verify project scope and cost estimates. They also perform technical
evaluations of the requested projects based on the following criteria:
 Life/Safety factors. Examples include fire alarms, removal of
hazardous materials and repairing dangerous conditions.
 Code compliance. This includes the Americans with Disabilities Act
(ADA) as well as other building codes required by federal, state and
local regulations.
 Infrastructure maintenance. Examples include repairing roofs
before water damage occurs and reducing deferred maintenance to
hold down operational costs.
 Targeted new construction. New, substantially converted, or
expanded space may be necessary to meet programmatic needs,
increase efficiency, or decrease costs.

Reader’s Guide
State of Illinois
CDB then works with GOMB and user agencies to evaluate the resulting agency priority list. GOMB
currently gives preference to maintenance or renovation of existing state facilities over new construction
because of the growing backlog of deferred maintenance. GOMB also factors in the following policy
considerations:
FUNDING SOURCES
Funding of capital investments is split into two major categories: bond proceeds and pay-as-you-go
funding sources. The Governor’s Office of Management and Budget (GOMB) is responsible for issuing
both General Obligation (GO) and Build Illinois (BI) bonds. These long-term debt obligations, coupled
with pay-as-you-go sources, are used to fund a wide range of projects in the capital budget. The total
amount of bonds the state may issue for each authorized bonding category is limited by legislated
maximums. Bonded capital projects begin when there is adequate bond authorization to completely
fund a given phase of the project.
The primary vehicle for capital market financing for the state is the General Obligation bond program,
which is governed by the General Obligation Bond Act. These bonds are secured by general tax revenues
and guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the state. The other major vehicle for capital market
financing is the Build Illinois bond program, which is supported by dedicated sales tax revenues. This
program complements the state’s capital financing efforts by funding economic development,
infrastructure, educational and vocational facilities, and environment protection initiatives.
All other projects are funded by pay-as-you-go sources such as federal monies, sales tax revenues and
various state fees. For example, certain portions of the road program are funded by the Motor Fuel Tax.
The spending for pay-as-you-go projects is governed by the revenues collected for the coming year and
the available fund balances.
 Strategic priorities. Investments should support state
government’s core missions such as economic development, job
creation, educational opportunities, and access to healthcare and
public safety.
 Deferred maintenance impacts. Spending should aim to prevent
the need for more expensive repairs in the future.
 Agency program needs. Improvements should assist with
caseloads and enrollment trends or increase space utilization.
 Future operating costs. Investments should save operational
dollars in utilities and staffing.
 Matching support. Projects should maximize funds available from
federal, local or private sources.
 Debt service impacts of spending. Projects should take into
account the short- and long-term impact of bond offerings.
 Energy efficiency and sustainable design. All new state-funded
building construction and major renovations of existing state
facilities should meet the current Leadership in Energy and
Environmental Design (LEED) standards.

IMPLEMENTING THE CAPITAL BUDGET
Capital projects can make state operations more efficient through cost-saving measures and
technological upgrades. Bond-financed capital projects incur debt service obligations paid in the present
and in the future. Appendix A, Charts 1 and 2, summarize the five-year impact of state facilities projects
on the operating budget.

Capital Budget Overview
State of Illinois
ILLINOIS JOBS NOW! OVERVIEW
The Illinois Jobs Now! (IJN!) capital program passed with strong support from the General Assembly and
the governor in the spring of 2010. Of the $31 billion in projects, approximately $16 billion are bond
financed and $15 billion are funded by current revenues. Over the lifespan of its projects, IJN! will
support more than 400,000 jobs and stimulate economic activity in every region of the state. Funding
will improve schools, build bridges and roads, improve public transit, provide affordable housing
opportunities, protect natural resources, and bolster economic development in Illinois.
As of January 2012, the state has released approximately $8 billion of the $16 billion appropriated in
bonded projects. In the non-bonded portion of the program, the state has invested more than $7 billion
of the $15 billion appropriated in environmental projects, port system improvements and upgrades to
public transit, roads and highway systems.
Bonded projects can only proceed when the General Assembly authorizes the sale of bonds. As IJN!
enters its third year, the governor is requesting the remaining $4.3 billion in authorization to complete
the program. The major need for authorization comes from school construction and road programs. IJN!
has achieved many of its programmatic goals:
 Broadband improvements are underway to provide high-speed internet
access for many rural communities.
 Municipalities and park districts have been able to repair recreational
facilities.
 Affordable housing programs have assisted Illinois citizens and veterans
in purchasing their own homes.
 School districts throughout Illinois have received grants to build and
improve classrooms and laboratories.
 The majority of high-speed rail track has been laid for the Chicago-St.
Louis corridor.
 Rail congestion in Chicago has been reduced through infrastructure
improvements.
 Water reclamation districts have received grants to improve water quality.

State of Illinois
FISCAL YEAR 2013 CAPITAL REQUEST
Renew and Repair
The $31 billion IJN! capital initiative has been primarily invested in road
improvements and school infrastructure. However, there is still a need to
improve energy and operational efficiencies at state facilities throughout
Illinois. Renew and Repair will allow agencies to address critical remodeling
or infrastructure improvements such as repairing building exteriors;
upgrading electrical, mechanical, roofing and plumbing systems; addressing
health, life/safety, and accessibility code requirements; and remodeling
facility spaces for current operational or program needs. Without this
funding, the state’s aging facilities will continue to deteriorate and remain
inefficient. These problems increase operational costs and require agencies
to spend limited maintenance funds on short-term solutions. This initiative
will create more than 7,000 jobs.
Clean Water Now!
The governor is introducing the $1 billion Clean Water
Now! initiative to address the pressing need to stabilize
and improve water infrastructure. A community’s ability to
deliver clean drinking water, process wastewater, and
preserve dams and floodways is essential to sustain
agriculture and protect the well-being of the citizens. It is
estimated that Illinois has a deferred maintenance cost of
$15 billion in drinking water system repairs necessary to
meet federal standards for water quality. This initiative
includes $500 million to begin to address these needs.
The need to address the backlog of wastewater systems is
equally great, totaling $17 billion. Many communities are
in need of upgraded infrastructure to respond to population growth. This initiative includes $400 million
to address these needs.
In addition, thousands of homes and agricultural acres are threatened by a weakened levee system and
little to no floodplain management. The economic vitality of communities across the state is at-risk
because of these floodplain hazards. This initiative includes $100 million to address these critical needs.
These projects will collectively impact thousands of Illinoisans and support economic growth by creating
more than 11,000 jobs.
21st Century Schools
A key part of success in the 21st century is a workforce that can
compete in the global economy. Illinois will excel with citizens
trained in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM).
To achieve this success, the state needs cutting-edge
laboratories in universities, both public and private.
The governor is proposing $384 million to build and equip new
STEM facilities. However, the task of creating jobs of the future
must begin at the Pre-K-12 level. The governor also proposes
$616 million to provide primary and secondary schools with
both technological upgrades for student achievement and with
energy efficient building improvements.

NEW APPROPRIATIONS
Communications Consolidation
The Department of State Police (ISP) currently utilizes 20 district call centers to handle 911 emergency
calls. In an effort to streamline and consolidate this process, ISP is working to reduce the number of call
centers to seven. This consolidation will ensure that public safety standards are met at the lowest
possible costs to Illinois residents.
Healthcare and Accounting Information Technology Systems Upgrades
The Central Management Services (CMS) is working to
create an integrated healthcare information system in
Illinois. The healthcare system would support project
management efforts aimed at projects related to
Medicaid modernization, integrated eligibility, and
the health benefits exchange.
The Governor’s Office of Management and Budget’s
(GOMB) new financial accounting system will allow
the state and its citizens more financial transparency
and produce auditable financial statements much
more quickly than the current one year process. It will
include general ledger, accounts payable, payroll,
human resources and grants management for all
state agencies.
PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS
Community Health Center Construction Grants
The Department of Public Health (DPH) provides grants to Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHC).
These grants fund the necessary infrastructure improvements for healthcare services.
In fiscal year 2012, $30.5 million in grants assisted 14 community health centers. These grants allowed
the state to improve health outcomes for medically underserved Illinoisans, reduce healthcare spending
and save taxpayer money. In addition, the grants are creating approximately 215 construction jobs.
The Urban Weatherization Initiative (UWI)
The Department of Commerce and
Economic Opportunity (DCEO) is working
to create the first state-funded
weatherization program in the United
States. The initial phase of the program
provides training in green jobs, like energy
auditing and weatherization, in five
disadvantaged communities across the
state.
In the second phase, newly trained
professionals work in communities to
weatherize homes, which increases energy
efficiency and lowers energy bills. A
secondary but important result will be the
expansion of local supply chains for
weatherization materials.

Next Generation
State of Illinois
Affordable Housing
The Illinois Housing Development Authority (IHDA)
provides affordable housing for low-income families,
senior citizens, people with disabilities and at-risk,
displaced veterans
Hope Springs Apartments will provide 36 units of
permanent supportive housing in Springfield for persons
with disabilities. Supportive services will be provided by
the Southern Illinois University School of Medicine. The
project is expected to create 54 jobs during construction
and 14 permanent jobs after construction completion.
This project is 14 percent complete.
Fifth Street Renaissance Veterans’ Shelter (pictured on the
right) will provide 14 units of permanent supportive
housing in Springfield for homeless veterans with
disabilities. Supportive services will be provided by Fifth
Street Renaissance, the project sponsor. The project is
expected to create 21 jobs during construction and 5
permanent jobs after construction completion. This
project is 26 percent complete.
United Neighborhood Organization (UNO)
DCEO launched a capital campaign to build 10 schools serving
more than 5,400 students by 2017 to alleviate school
overcrowding. The new schools, supported by private and
public funding, are expected to achieve silver certification from
the United States Green Building Council’s Leadership in Energy
and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Building Rating System.
This will result in a better school environment, long-term
operational cost savings and increased durability of the building.
School Energy Efficiency
ISBE provides grants and loans for energy efficiency
improvements. 158 school districts received grants allowing
school districts to save $1.2 million annually.
Early Childhood
The Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) provides grants to school districts and not-for-profit providers
for children, birth to five years of age, to construct or renovate early childhood facilities. Priority is given
to projects located in communities with the greatest underserved populations of young children.

PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS
Asian Carp Market Development
The Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity
(DCEO) is funding grants to the private sector to develop
commercial harvesting of Asian Carp in Illinois rivers. These
grants provide the funding needed for the development of
the Asian Carp market. These markets provide a new food
source for citizens, create business opportunities and assist
in correcting the environmental damage caused by the over-population
of Asian Carp.
River’s Edge and Brownfields Sites
This program provides assistance to businesses and
municipalities within designated River’s Edge Redevelopment
Zones. The grants make it easier and more cost effective for businesses to operate. The private
investment and jobs that these businesses create will continue to bring benefits for decades.
Community Infrastructure Development
This program provides assistance to local businesses, not-for-profits and governments for infrastructure
projects. Such assistance ensures that the community organizations have adequate facilities for
operations. For example, this program funds improvements to public parks, street lights, water mains,
roads and projects that ensure compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act.
Electric Vehicle Infrastructure
DCEO is investing in the electric charging stations needed
to make electric vehicles a more realistic alternative for
personal transportation. This initiative will make owning
electric vehicles more practical and attract more
innovation and investment from businesses.
Metropolitan Exposition Centers
Cities across the state are receiving grants to improve
civic centers that help form the core of a successful
metropolitan area. Improvements to those civic centers
make Illinois cities more attractive to expositions and
increase tourism. In fiscal year 2012, a $4 million grant was released to improve the infrastructure of the
Prairie Capital Convention Center in Springfield.
AMERICAN RECOVERY AND REINVESTMENT ACT OF 2009 (ARRA)
Tri-City Regional Port District
The Tri-City Regional Port District in Madison County received a $4 million grant for infrastructure that
was matched by more than $14 million in American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) funds. This
port connects the Mississippi River with the major rail hubs near St. Louis.
Statewide Stimulus Matching Funds
As the primary economic development agency, DCEO sought to maximize federal ARRA funding by
providing the necessary state matching funds. Numerous projects have been funded using this method.
Among the projects is a renovation of an Illinois Institute of Technology facility that will create a
laboratory to research smart grid technology. This project is expected to create jobs in the short and
long term, as well as create more opportunities for private investment in the state.

ILLINOIS INTERSTATE HIGHWAY
Study Area for the Proposed Illiana Expressway
Illinois is located in the center of the nation's interstate highway system with three coast-to-coast
interstates (I-70, I-80 and I-90). In all, 2,169 miles of interstate highway serve Illinois. Only two states
have more interstate miles. Illinois also benefits from major interchanges located in more than a dozen
communities. The Illinois interstate system is part of a network of 16,000 miles of state highways that
make the interstate routes easily accessible to every region of the state.
NEW APPROPRIATIONS
Illiana Expressway
The budget for fiscal year 2013 includes $5 million in pay-as-you-go funds for the Illiana Expressway,
which will join the east-west corridor between northeast Illinois and northwest Indiana. One of the goals
of the Illiana Expressway is to connect to the new South Suburban Airport and rail-highway intermodal
terminals developing across Will County. This corridor will invigorate the Chicago freight hub.
The Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) is working closely with Indiana officials to plan
construction of this vital corridor. IDOT will study the effect of improving the extension of the corridor
from I-57 to I-55 and will also focus on how this development can occur while minimizing community
disruption. Constructing this expressway will cost more than $1 billion and will create more than 14,000
jobs.

ILLINOIS RAILROADS
Amtrak service between Chicago and St. Louis is included in the Midwest Regional Rail Initiative
Illinois is the center of the nation's rail network. Chicago is the largest U.S. rail gateway. In all, 52
railroads provide service from Illinois to every part of the continental United States. Approximately 500
freight trains (with a total of about 37,500 freight cars) and 700 passenger trains pass through Chicago
every day. By 2020, demand for freight rail service in Chicago is expected to nearly double. This growth
forecast relies on meeting rail capacity and infrastructure needs.
PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS
Chicago Region Environmental and Transportation Efficiency Program (CREATE)
CREATE is a groundbreaking public-private
partnership between the U.S. Department of
Transportation (USDOT), the State of
Illinois, the City of Chicago, Metra, Amtrak
and the nation's freight railroads. CREATE
has improved rail facilities and separated
rail from road traffic in 12 locations in and
around Chicago. CREATE’s long-term vision
is to relieve freight congestion to expedite
the delivery of cargo through the six-county
Chicago area.
Funding from USDOT, as well as $300
million through Illinois Jobs Now! (IJN!), and
$170 million from the freight railroads, will
continue to ensure that the most critical projects will be executed.
The investment in CREATE, to date, has resulted in a 28 percent reduction in freight rail delay and 33
percent reduction in passenger delay. CREATE’s 70 projects, which span across the Chicago region,
include 25 road-rail grade separations, 6 rail-to-rail flyovers and other anti-congestion measures.
The Englewood Flyover project is part of the CREATE. 1,500 people will
be put to work on the $133 million project, which begins spring 2012.

THE ILLINOIS AVIATION SYSTEM
Planning the South Suburban Airport at the Project Office
The Illinois Aviation System consists of nearly 900 landing facilities. These facilities vary from
commercial service airports to private restricted landing area (RLA) to rooftop hospital heliports. An
airport with commercial airline service or with the capability to handle business jets is within a few
minutes’ drive of every Illinois city with a population of 30,000 or more.
NEW APPROPRIATIONS
South Suburban Airport
The South Suburban Airport (SSA) is distinctive in that it is a completely new green-field commercial
service airport, not an expansion or replacement of an existing facility. There has not been a new green-field
commercial service airport in the United States for several decades.
SSA will be a new supplemental air carrier airport in Will County. SSA will
serve a vital role in the region by providing a convenient and accessible
venue for commercial passenger service, cargo operations, as well as
corporate and general aviation activities.
IDOT is producing an Airport Master Plan that addresses the construction
and operation of the airport for Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) review and approval. The Airport
Master Plan is used as the basis for modernizing, expanding or creating a new airport.

PUBLIC TRANSIT
Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) at the Chicago Avenue stop
The state makes major investments in public transportation infrastructure. These projects address
statewide capital needs for constructing or expanding new transit facilities, as well as rehabilitating
existing buildings, and replacing passenger rail cars and buses that have exceeded their useful life.
IDOT also supports the transit needs of rural areas and the coordination of state and federal funding
programs.
The capital program for the Regional Transit Authority (RTA) and downstate Illinois emphasizes bringing
the existing system to a state of good repair and modernizing it where appropriate. Capital
improvements have generally included the purchase of
rolling stock, reconstruction of track, station
improvements and security and communications
upgrades.
The federal transit capital program consists of two
categories: formula apportionments for rail modernization
and discretionary grants for major bus capital needs.
Federal rail modernization funds are used for preservation
and improvements on commuter rail and CTA rapid transit
lines in northeastern Illinois, as well as the MetroLink light-rail
line in the St. Louis region.
Illinois Jobs Now! (IJN!) includes $3 billion in bonded funds
for mass transportation. As a result, Illinois mass
transportation districts are purchasing buses and rail cars;
building train stations, bus garages and rail yards;
bringing existing infrastructure to a state of good repair;
and reconstructing commuter rail bridges and elevated rail
structures to meet the demands of the traveling public.
Furthermore, to ensure that Illinois is well-positioned to address the future needs of the traveling public,
IDOT is implementing 16 new technical study agreements, including research into alternative Amtrak
operating subsidies and a feasibility study on forming a mass transit district for rural counties. There
will also be a study on overcoming transit service gaps using smartphone technology and neighborhood-based
transportation such as shared station bikes and cars.
According to the American Public Transportation
Association, one person switching to public transit can
reduce carbon emissions by 4,800 pounds per year.

Illinois is the recipient of a federal grant totaling $268 million to fund new bi-level, high-speed
passenger rail cars for Chicago-Quincy, Chicago-Rockford-Dubuque, and Chicago-Carbondale rail
corridors, as well as St. Louis-Kansas City and Michigan routes.
Rail Freight Program
The Illinois Rail Freight Program provides assistance to communities,
railroads, and shippers to preserve and improve rail freight service. It
consists of grants and low-interest loans to finance rail
improvements. The program focuses on projects with the greatest
potential for improving access to markets and maintaining
transportation cost savings, and where state participation will
leverage private investments to solve rail service problems.
Six projects were completed in the Rail Freight Program in fiscal year
2012. The projects were located in Madison, Adams, Ogle and Cook
counties with expenditures totaling approximately $14 million.
These six freight rail projects completed in fiscal year 2012 included
rehabilitation of existing rail infrastructure to provide safer and more
efficient service to existing shippers. Another project repaired a
storm sewer that was prone to flooding, which delayed the movement
of freight through Chicago. The remaining four projects provided new rail infrastructure for new
businesses in Illinois. Once completed, these projects will help create 300 new jobs and retain an
additional 250 jobs.

See Inland Ports for additional information
The South Suburban Airport (SSA) site is approximately
5,400 acres and could encompass more than 20,000
acres, if completed. IDOT is mindful of the sensitive
nature of acquiring someone’s home and property and
works with care to make the process as friendly and
transparent as possible. Federal and state guidelines
apply to the acquisition of property, including relocation
costs. Purchase offers are based on an independently
appraised fair-market value.
Available agricultural land and habitable homes are
rented and will remain so until needed for airport construction. Additionally, a Tax Recovery Fund was
established that allows IDOT to pay a lease hold tax to Will County in lieu of property taxes.

Wastewater Initiative
This $400 million initiative will provide loan assistance to
local governments to rehabilitate aging infrastructure, meet
higher water quality standards and respond to the increased
wastewater processing needs associated with population
growth. Grants will also be awarded to local governments to
make these advances affordable for economically
disadvantaged communities. Projects may include
improvements to publicly owned wastewater pipes and
treatment facilities, combined sewer overflow corrections,
enhanced nutrient and storm water management, and
construction of central wastewater treatment facilities for
unsewered communities. It is anticipated that the initiative
will create 5,400 jobs.
Drinking Water Initiative
Illinois has a growing need for systems that supply safe drinking water to the public. To help meet that
need, this $500 million initiative will provide loan assistance to local governments and private drinking
water supplies to expand, replace or rehabilitate existing infrastructure. EPA will also award grants to

initiative is expected to create 6,100 jobs.
PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS
Green Infrastructure
In order to fund storm water management projects, EPA has awarded 14
Green Infrastructure grants totaling $5 million. The projects include
natural landscape features, such as forests, floodplains, headwaters and
wetlands, to contain storm water.
Typical projects include constructing green roofs, permeable pavement,
rain gardens, infiltration planters and rainwater harvesting. These grants,
first awarded in fiscal year 2012, help implement the Green Infrastructure
for Clean Water Act signed by Governor Quinn in 2009.
Wastewater and Drinking Water Treatment
To date, EPA has awarded 70 wastewater loans, totaling
$441 million, to local governments for wastewater
treatment plant upgrades so far in fiscal year 2012. The

PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS
Energy Efficiency
In addition to existing electric incentives through the Illinois
Energy Now program, DCEO successfully launched gas
incentives to promote energy efficiency. More than 500 energy
efficiency projects were conducted by local governments,
schools, community colleges and universities in six utility
service areas statewide. Annual energy use in public facilities
was reduced by approximately 1 percent. These efforts have
reduced the cost of providing services to the public and
reduced the strain on users’ budgets.
Renewable Component Manufacturing
Illinois has tremendous potential for renewable supply chain
manufacturing in the form of metal fabricators, machine shops
and steel companies. Recent efforts to realize this potential
include the assembly of wind turbine gearboxes by Siemens-Winergy in Elgin, manufacturing of wind
towers by Trinity Structural Towers in Clinton and production of solar panels by Wanxiang in Rockford.
Emerging Technological Enterprises Program
DCEO has provided $15 million to support unique
advanced technology initiatives, which leverage the
state's vast economic, scientific and technological
assets. One such project, the 50,000-square-foot
technology center in Chicago's Merchandise Mart,
will serve as a collaborative working space for
digital and technology entrepreneurs.
Coal Revival Program
With $93 million appropriated, the Coal Revival
Program offers grants to develop new technologies
that will allow companies in Illinois to produce
electricity from coal in a cleaner and more efficient
way. The Coal Revival Program is expected to
attract more than $2 billion in private investment, which will continue to make Illinois a pioneer in both
the production and use of coal. In 2011, there was a 12 percent increase in jobs in the coal industry due
in part to this program.

DEFERRED MAINTENANCE
Improving the maintenance of state owned facilities will increase efficiency and lower operational costs.
New green building standards set minimum requirements for energy efficient design and construction
for both new and renovated buildings. These requirements impact the energy use and emissions for the
life of the building. Sustainable, energy efficient buildings provide both tangible and intangible
economic and environmental benefits that allow the state to manage costs while reducing energy use.
An assessment of the condition of state facilities estimates that deferred maintenance in the 2012 fiscal
year totals more than $4.3 billion. Approximately 42 percent of the needed work is to replace
deteriorated HVAC, plumbing or electrical systems. Another 24 percent is for improvements and repairs
to buildings’ shell elements such as roofs, windows and doors, as well as meeting new code
requirements. The remaining 36 percent is for other various deferred maintenance needs. This capital
budget proposal requests only a portion of the estimated $4.3 billion to be used for repairs that directly
affect the health, life and safety of the public or the clients of the agency.

NEW APPROPRIATIONS
Dixon Correctional Center at Dixon
Housing more than 2,300 inmates, the 29-
year old Dixon Correctional Center is in dire
need of replacements for essential safety
devices such as fire alarms, intercom panels
and motion sensors. $3 million in upgrades
have already been completed and the 2013
capital budget request includes $6.3 million
to finish the remaining work.
Quincy Veterans’ Home – Kent Building
Renovation
The Department of Veterans’ Affairs (DVA),
in conjunction with the Capital Development
Board (CDB), is renovating an existing three
story skilled nursing building. This project
includes replacing windows, doors, new
partitions, elevators, and interior and
exteriors finishes, as well as HVAC,
plumbing, electrical, and fire protection
systems. This will improve operating efficiencies, allow for green improvements and give Illinois veterans
access to quality care in a state-of-the-art nursing facility.
Willard Ice Building at Springfield
Because the Willard Ice Building houses the
headquarters of the Illinois Department of Revenue
(DOR), maintaining building operations is essential to
collecting adequate revenue for the state. Included in
this year’s capital request are repairs for water-damaged
building surfaces, fire sprinklers and lighting, in
addition to new condenser and heat exchanger units
that will provide energy efficient cooling. A total of $20
million will fund these renovations as well as security
system upgrades.
PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS
Elgin Regional Office Building
The Department of Central Management Services (CMS), in conjunction with CDB, will replace chillers,
boilers, water systems and the pneumatic control system at the Elgin Regional Office Building. This
request also includes funding for the abatement of asbestos-containing materials. This will provide a
more efficient and reliable HVAC system, reducing operating and maintenance costs for a building that
houses offices for numerous state agencies, including the Secretary of State and the Department of
Children and Family Services.

Energy Savings
CDB’s successful implementation of the Illinois Energy Conservation
Code has increased energy efficiency of state construction projects
12 to 15 percent. Increased energy efficiency saves the state money
and reduces environmental impacts. More than $11.4 million worth
of deferred maintenance work has been completed at facilities
throughout the state. Thus far, Illinois Jobs Now! (IJN!) has replaced
roofing, HVAC, plumbing and electrical systems. Modifications to
state operated buildings improve operational efficiency and provide
energy savings. In addition, there are more than $101 million of
deferred maintenance projects currently underway. A new state
police Metro East forensic lab is anticipated to be complete within
the next 12 months.
Chicago Read Mental Health Center
The Department of Human Services, in conjunction with CDB, is
remodeling the east half of Unit J at the Chicago Read Mental Health
Center (MHC). The Chicago Read MHC is a 200 bed psychiatric
hospital in Chicago, which serves the needs of mentally ill and
destitute populations. Some of the improvements include electrical,
HVAC, plumbing and sprinkler systems.
Chicago Medical Center
CMS, in conjunction with CDB, is installing an emergency generator
and associated distribution equipment to supply backup power to
the Illinois Department of Public Health’s largest laboratory facility at the Chicago Medical Center. The
specialists at the medical center perform analysis on critical at-risk newborns, bio-safety threats, viral
serology and micro-biological specimens.
Illinois Youth Center Pere Marquette
The Department of Juvenile Justice (DJJ), in conjunction
with CDB, will replace leaking roof systems on several
buildings at the Illinois Youth Center Pere Marquette.
This will protect the buildings from damage and mold
issues that result from water infiltration. Addressing the
roofing systems will allow Illinois youth to continue to
benefit from more intense intervention and treatment-oriented
programming that ensures children an
opportunity to learn positive life-skills in a disciplined
setting.
AMERICAN RECOVERY AND REINVESTMENT ACT OF 2009 (ARRA)
The State of Illinois has been approved for approximately $8 million of funding for 11 energy projects
including:
Two of the 11 projects have been completed and the remaining nine projects are scheduled to be
complete by July 2012.
Governor Quinn is proud to honor HPA in
the category of Energy Efficiency and
Conservation for their extraordinary
sustainability efforts with Lincoln’s Tomb.
 Replacing or upgrading the HVAC and lighting at the Collinsville Regional Office Building
 Replacing lighting at the James R. Thompson Center

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CAPITAL AND OPERATING BUDGETS
CAPITAL BUDGET OPERATING BUDGET
Appropriations are for assets that have a long-term useful
life, such as buildings, highways, underground or surface
infrastructure, durable equipment, and land.
Appropriations are for consumable goods and services such
as salaries and benefits, commodities, utilities, and
professional services that are purchased and used during any
one fiscal year.
Spending occurs over one to several years. A typical road
construction project, for instance, might take four years, with
the majority of spending occurring in years two and three
and only design and engineering work occurring in year one.
Most capital dollars in any budget year are reappropriations
for previously appropriated projects that are still under
construction.
Spending occurs over the course of one fiscal year with small
sums occasionally reappropriated into the next fiscal year.
Funding Sources can include general revenues but are more
likely to include bond transfers or federal grants because of
the one-time, large and occasional nature of capital
expenditures. Dedicated revenue sources (e.g., special fees
related to the asset being funded, such as the Motor Fuel
Tax) are also used.
Funding Sources usually include general revenues (sales tax,
income tax, corporate income tax, state fees, etc.) because of
the ongoing nature of operating expenditures.
Financing is likely to come from long-term bond proceeds
that are paid back in increments over the life of the bond or
through other long-term means. Payments are made over a
timeframe ranging from 5 to 30 years, which is generally less
than the useful lifespan of the assets they finance.
Financing comes from current revenue streams – the
timeframe of revenue received usually matches the time
frame of the services or commodities purchased (i.e., within a
single fiscal year). The operating budget balances annual
spending with annual revenue.
Impacts on the Operating Budget: Impacts on the Capital Budget:
Capital expenditures can decrease operating costs by
increasing efficiency in a number of ways. This includes but
is not limited to: investing in more durable assets that
handle wear and tear better, installing energy efficient
lighting or windows to reduce utility bills, or changing a
building layout to acheive more efficient staffing patterns.
Operating expenditures can decrease capital costs by
reducing the need for future maintenance. This includes but
is not limited to: implementing more efficient staffing
patterns, reducing services that cause wear and tear,
outsourcing functions and performing routine maintenance
that prevents larger, more expensive structural repairs.
Ca
