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.
(65 ILCS 5/11-22-1) (from Ch. 24, par. 11-22-1)
Sec. 11-22-1. The corporate authorities of each municipality may erect,
establish, and maintain hospitals, nursing homes and
medical dispensaries, all on a nonprofit basis, and
may locate and regulate hospitals, medical dispensaries, sanitariums, and
undertaking establishments; provided that the corporate authorities of any
municipality shall not regulate any pharmacy or drugstore registered under
the Pharmacy Practice Act. Any hospital maintained under this
Section is authorized to provide any service and enter into any contract or
other arrangement not prohibited by a hospital licensed under the Hospital
Licensing Act, incorporated under the General Not-For-Profit Corporation
Act, and exempt from taxation under paragraph (3) of subsection (c) of
Section 501 of the Internal Revenue Code.
For purposes of erecting, establishing and maintaining a nursing home
on a nonprofit basis pursuant to this Section, the corporate authorities of
each municipality shall have the power to borrow money; execute a
promissory note or notes, execute a mortgage or trust deed to secure
payment of such notes or deeds, or execute such other security instrument
or document as needed, and pledge real and personal nursing home property
as security for any such promissory note, mortgage or trust deed; and issue
revenue or general obligation bonds.
