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.

(430 ILCS 70/3) (from Ch. 38, par. 85-3)

Sec. 3.

Unlawful
action-Parade permit.

It is unlawful for any person, group or organization to conduct or
participate in any march, assembly, meeting, parade, or gathering on roadways in
more than one specific area of or location in, any municipality or the
unincorporated area of a county, on any given day, unless it is acting
under authority of a duly issued municipal or county parade or
demonstration permit if local ordinance or regulation requires a permit,
or, if not, with permission of the principal law enforcement officer for
the area. Only the person, group, or organization responsible for organizing the march, assembly, meeting, parade, or gathering is required to obtain a permit or the permission of the principal law enforcement officer, which shall be sufficient to encompass all participants. If a march, assembly, meeting, parade, or gathering on roadways involves the act of crossing or traversing over or upon active railroad tracks, the municipal or county authority or principal law enforcement officer, as part of its permit or permission process, may prohibit any portion of the route that involves the act of crossing or traversing over or upon active railroad tracks.
