Illinois Compiled Statutes

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.

    Sec. 1. If repair and maintenance of a single family residence existing on the date this Act takes effect cannot be reasonably accomplished without entering onto the adjoining land, and if the owner of the adjoining land refuses to permit entry onto that adjoining land for the purpose of repair and maintenance of the single family residence, then the owner of the single family residence may bring an action in the circuit court to compel the owner of the adjoining land to permit entry for the purpose of repair and maintenance. The court shall prescribe the conditions of the entry and shall determine the amount of damages to be paid to the owner of the adjoining land. The court may require the owner of the single family residence to give bond to the owner of the adjoining land to secure performance and payment. As used in this Act, "single family residence" includes real estate submitted to the provisions of the Condominium Property Act and containing units used as single family residences.
