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.

Sec. 20.2.

Adding Land to Designated Agricultural Areas.

Any proposal
for adding land to a designated agricultural area shall be submitted to the
county board which shall forward the proposal to the county committee
within 10 days.  Within 45 days from the date the proposal was submitted to
it, the county committee shall review the proposed addition and shall
recommend the approval, disapproval or modification of the proposal. The
county committee shall
submit a report of its recommendations to the county board which shall act
on the recommendations within 30 days.  The county board shall notify the
Department of Agriculture of any addition of land to a designated
agricultural area within 45 days of taking such action.
Any land added to a designated agricultural area under this Section
shall be subject to review under Section 16 at the same times as the original
area is subject to such review.  The dates for such review and the period
during which a petition may be filed under Section 17 shall not be affected
by the addition of land under this Section.
