Information maintained by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

        (2) the Illinois Municipal Retirement Fund must
    
respond with a written "Pension Impact Statement" stating the effect of that increase in salary on the pension benefits of that participant, and any other relevant effect of the increase, including payment of the present value of the increase in benefits resulting from the portion of any increase in salary that is in excess of 6% as provided under subsection (k) of Section 7-172, if applicable;
        (3) the authorities authorizing this increase must
