(55 ILCS 5/2-5010) (from Ch. 34, par. 2-5010)
Sec. 2-5010. Approval of ordinances. Any ordinance passed, adopted or
otherwise enacted by the board shall before it becomes effective be
presented to the county executive. If the county executive approves such
ordinance, resolution or motion, the county executive shall sign it; if not, the county executive shall return
it to the board with the objections, which shall be entered and spread upon
the journal, and the board shall proceed to reconsider the matter. If after
such reconsideration 3/5 of the members of the board pass such ordinance,
it shall become effective on the date prescribed but not earlier than the
date of passage following reconsideration. In all such cases the votes of
the members of the board shall be determined by yeas and nays and the names
of the members voting for or against such ordinance objected to by the
county executive shall be entered and spread upon the journal. If any
ordinance is not returned by the county executive to the board at its first
meeting occurring not less than 6 days, Sundays excepted, after it has been
presented to the county executive, it shall become effective unless the board has recessed
or adjourned for a period in excess of 60 days, in which case it shall not
become effective without the approval of the county executive. Items of appropriation may be
approved or vetoed by the county executive. Any item approved by the county
executive and all items not vetoed shall become law, and any item vetoed
shall be returned to and reconsidered by the board in the same manner as
provided in this Section for other ordinances returned to the board without
approval.
