Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

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 5/3.1-45-5) (from Ch. 24, par. 3.1-45-5)

Sec. 3.1-45-5. Composition; manner of acting.

The board of trustees
shall consist of the president and
trustees and, except as otherwise provided in this Code, shall exercise
the same powers and perform the same duties as the city council in
cities. It shall pass ordinances, resolutions, and motions in the same
manner as a city council. The president of the board of trustees may
exercise the same veto power and powers in Section 3.1-40-30, and with like
effect, as the mayor of a
city. The trustees may pass motions, resolutions, and ordinances over
the president's veto in like manner as the alderpersons of a city council.
