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.

If such region is situated in or embraces more than one county, the

The joint regional planning commission is authorized to prepare zoning
and building codes, ordinances or resolutions for submission to and

commission may employ a staff to assist the member county boards in the
administration and enforcement of such zoning and building codes or

there is a planning commission, and in case such regional plan for such
city, village or incorporated town is adopted by the city, village or
incorporated town planning commission, such regional plan or such part of
which as may be adopted shall have such force and effect as by law may be
provided; provided in counties of less than 500,000 inhabitants that, if
such plan sets out the centerline location and right-of-way width of
planned major streets in unsubdivided land or if such plan sets out the
future location of planned major streets in unsubdivided land, the county
board, upon adoption of such plan or part thereof by such regional planning
commission, may by resolution of record forbid the construction of
buildings in the right-of-way of such planned streets.

located in the area served by the Northeastern Illinois Metropolitan Area
Planning Commission any planning commission created under the provisions of
this Division may prepare and recommend to the county board of such county a
comprehensive plan of public improvements looking to the present and future
development of the region for the planning of which it was created. The
plan or plans when adopted by the county board shall be designated as the
official plan, or part thereof, of that county. Such plan or plans may be
adopted in whole or in separate geographical or functional parts, each of

recommend changes in the official plan or any part thereof. To provide for
the health, safety, comfort and convenience of the inhabitants of the
county, such plans may establish reasonable standards of design for

redevelopment, including reasonable requirements for public streets,
alleys, ways for public service facilities, storm or flood water runoff
channels and basins, parks, playgrounds, school grounds, and other public
