(50 ILCS 220/2) (from Ch. 85, par. 1002)
Sec. 2.
Adoption of codes and public records by reference.
Any municipality is hereby authorized to adopt by reference, as
criteria for the issuance of construction, reconstruction, alteration or
installation permits, the provisions of any code or portions of any code
as herein defined, without setting forth the provisions of such codes in
full, provided that at least three (3) copies of such code which is
incorporated or adopted by reference are filed in the office of the
clerk of the municipality and there kept available for public use,
inspection, and examination. Any municipality is likewise authorized and
empowered to adopt by
reference the provisions of any public records, provided, likewise, that
three (3) copies of such public record are kept on file in the office of
the clerk of the municipality as provided above for codes. The filing
requirement herein prescribed shall not be deemed to be complied with
unless the required copies of such code or public record are filed with
the clerk of such municipality for a period of 15 days prior to adoption
of the ordinance which incorporates such code or public record by
reference. No code nor public record of any jurisdiction other than the
State of Illinois shall be adopted hereunder covering any subject matter
for which standards are available in any public record of the State of
Illinois, except in the case of fire protection districts, which may
adopt any national standard by reference, notwithstanding the provisions
of this Section.
