"Section 5. The Illinois Municipal Code is amended by adding Section 11-1-12 as follows:

(65 ILCS 5/11-1-12 new)

Sec. 11-1-12. Registered businesses. The corporate authorities of any municipality may establish a registry and require businesses located within the municipality to register with the municipality. An established registry may only include the (i) business owner's name and business address, (ii) business and emergency phone numbers, (iii) e-mail address of the business, (iv) internet website address, and (v) nature of the business. The corporate authorities of a municipality must notify businesses of the registration requirement. If a business has received at least 2 notifications of the registration requirement, then the corporate authorities of a municipality may charge a maximum penalty of $200 for failure to register with the municipality. If a municipality creates a database containing information from the registry created under this Section, then the database shall be a public record subject to The Freedom of Information Act. This Section does not limit a home rule municipality's ability to license businesses for a fee and enact regulations for that system of licensure.

Section 99. Effective date. This Act takes effect upon becoming law.".
