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.
() 65 ILCS 5/11-20-16 (65 ILCS 5/11-20-16) Sec. 11-20-16. Retail food establishments. (a) A municipality in a county having a population of 2,000,000 or more inhabitants must regulate and inspect retail food establishments in the municipality. A municipality must regulate and inspect retail food establishments in accordance with applicable federal and State laws pertaining to the operation of retail food establishments including but not limited to the Illinois Food Handling Regulation Enforcement Act, the Illinois Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, the Sanitary Food Preparation Act, the regulations of the Illinois Department of Public Health, and local ordinances and regulations. This subsection shall not apply to a municipality that is served by a certified local health department other than a county certified local health department. A home rule unit may not regulate retail food establishments in a less restrictive manner than as provided in this Section. This Section is a limitation of home rule powers under subsection (i) of Section 6 of Article VII of the Illinois Constitution on the concurrent exercise by home rule units of the powers and functions exercised by the State. (b) A municipality may enter into an intergovernmental agreement with a county that provides for the county's certified local health department to perform any or all inspection functions for the municipality. The municipality must pay the county's reasonable costs. A municipality may enter into an intergovernmental agreement with a local health district, as defined in Section 11 of the Public Health District Act and that serves the entire municipality, to regulate and inspect retail food establishments for the municipality. An intergovernmental agreement shall not preclude a municipality or local health district from continuing to license retail food establishments within its jurisdiction. (b-5) Notwithstanding subsections (a) and (b) of this Section, a retail food establishment that presents a low relative risk of causing foodborne illness according to the criteria set forth in 77 Ill. Adm. Code Part 615 and is located in a municipality having a population of 2,000,000 or more shall either (1) receive one inspection every 2 years; or (2) if required by the local health department, submit one self-inspection report every 2 years. A local health department under this subsection must develop the self-inspection form and an evaluation and enforcement plan for the self-inspection program and submit the form and plan to the Department of Public Health for approval before they may be used. The evaluation plan must provide for oversight and evaluation of the self-inspection program. The Department of Public Health may adopt rules setting standards for local health departments' evaluation and enforcement plans. The Department of Public Health and a local health department under this Section may adopt rules to enforce this Section, including the imposition of civil money penalties and administrative penalties. (c) For the purpose of this Section, "retail food establishment" includes a food service establishment, a temporary food service establishment, and a retail food store as defined in the Food Service Sanitation Code, 77 Ill. Adm. Code Part 750, and the Retail Food Store Sanitation Code, 77 Ill. Adm. Code Part 760.

LOCAL EMERGENCY ENERGY PLANS
|
65 ILCS 5/11-21.5-5
(65 ILCS 5/11-21.5-5)
Sec. 11-21.5-5.
Local emergency energy plans.
(a) Any municipality, including a home rule municipality, may, by ordinance,
require any electric utility (i) that serves more than 1,000,000 customers in
Illinois and (ii) that is operating within the corporate limits of the
municipality to adopt and to provide the municipality with a local emergency
energy plan. For the purposes of this Section, (i) "local emergency energy
plan" or "plan" means a planned course of action developed by the electric
utility that is implemented when the demand for electricity exceeds, or is at
significant risk of exceeding, the supply of electricity
available to the electric utility and (ii) "local emergency energy plan
ordinance" means an ordinance adopted by the corporate authorities of the
municipality under this Section that requires local emergency energy plans.
(b) A local emergency energy plan must include the following information:
(1) the circumstances that would require the | | implementation of the plan;
|
|
(2) the levels or stages of the plan;
(3) the approximate geographic limits of each outage
| | area provided for in the plan;
|
|
(4) the approximate number of customers within each
| | outage area provided for in the plan;
|
|
(5) any police facilities, fire stations, hospitals,
| | nursing homes, schools, day care centers, senior citizens centers, community health centers, blood banks, dialysis centers, community mental health centers, correctional facilities, stormwater and wastewater treatment or pumping facilities, water-pumping stations, buildings in excess of 80 feet in height that have been identified by the municipality, and persons on life support systems that are known to the electric utility that could be affected by controlled rotating interruptions of electric service under the plan; and
|
|
(6) the anticipated sequence and duration of
| | intentional interruptions of electric service to each outage area under the plan.
|
|
(c) A local emergency energy plan ordinance may require that, when an
electric utility determines it is necessary to implement a controlled rotating
interruption of electric service because the demand for electricity exceeds,
or is at significant risk of exceeding, the supply of electricity available
to the electric utility, the electric utility notify a designated municipal
officer that the electric utility will be implementing its local emergency
energy plan. The notification shall be made pursuant to a procedure approved
by the municipality after consultation with the electric utility.
(d) After providing the notice required in subsection (c), an electric
utility shall reasonably and separately advise designated municipal officials
before it implements each level or stage of the plan, which shall include (i)
a request for emergency help from neighboring utilities, (ii) a declaration of
a control area emergency, and (iii) a public appeal for voluntary curtailment
of electricity use.
(e) The electric utility must give a separate notice to a designated
municipal official immediately after it determines that there will be a
controlled rotating interruption of electric service under the local emergency
energy plan. The notification must include (i) the areas in which service will
be interrupted, (ii) the sequence and estimated duration of the service outage
for each area, (iii) the affected feeders, and (iv) the number of affected
customers in each area. Whenever practical, the notification shall be made at
least 2 hours before the time of the outages. If the electric utility is aware
that controlled rotating interruptions may be required, the notification may
not be made less than 30 minutes before the outages.
(f) A local emergency energy plan ordinance may provide civil penalties for
violations of its provisions. The penalties must be permitted under the
Illinois Municipal
Code.
(g) The notifications required by this Section are in addition to the
notification requirements of any applicable franchise agreement or ordinance
and to the notification requirements of any applicable federal or State law,
rule, and regulation.
(h) Except for any penalties or remedies that may be provided in a local
emergency energy plan ordinance, in this Act, or in rules adopted by the
Illinois Commerce Commission, nothing in this Section shall be construed to
impose liability for or prevent a utility from taking any actions that are
necessary at any time, in any order, and with or without notice that are
required to preserve the integrity of the electric utility's electrical system
and interconnected network.
(i) Nothing in this Section, a local emergency energy plan ordinance, or a
local emergency energy plan creates any duty of a municipality to any person or
entity. No municipality may be subject to any claim or cause of action
arising, directly or indirectly, from its decision to adopt or to refrain from
adopting a local emergency energy plan ordinance. No municipality may be
subject to any claim or cause of action arising, directly or indirectly, from
any act or omission under the terms of or information provided in a local
emergency energy plan filed under a local emergency energy plan ordinance.

medical dispensaries, all on a nonprofit basis, and
may locate and regulate hospitals, medical dispensaries, sanitariums, and
undertaking establishments; provided that the corporate authorities of any

In the event any municipality has established a public
hospital in accordance with the provisions of this Division 22 and in the
further event the corporate authorities shall determine that the hospital
is no longer needed for the purposes for which it was established, or that
those purposes would be better served through the operation of the hospital by
a corporation, hospital, health care facility, unit of local government or
institution of higher education, the corporate authorities may by ordinance
authorize
the transfer, sale or lease of the hospital to such corporation, hospital,
health care facility, unit of local government or institution of higher
education within or without the corporate limits of the municipality, or
may authorize the sale or lease of the hospital to any mental health clinic
which obtains any portion of its funds from the Department of Human
Services (as successor to the Department of Mental Health and Developmental
Disabilities). Such transfer, sale or lease may be on such
terms and under such conditions as the corporate authorities may deem
proper without regard to any provisions of Division 9 or 10 of Article 8 or
Divisions 75, 76, 77 and 78 of this Article 11. At least 10 days prior to
the adoption of an ordinance under this Section, the corporate authorities
shall make the proposed ordinance conveniently available for public
inspection and shall hold at least one public hearing thereon. Notice of
this hearing shall be published in one or more newspapers published
in the municipality, or if there is none published in the municipality, in
a newspaper having general circulation in the municipality, at least 10
days prior to the time of the public hearing. Such notice shall state the
time and place of the hearing and the place where copies of the proposed
ordinance will be accessible for examination.
In the event that prior to the sale or lease of the hospital pursuant
to this Section, a labor organization has been recognized by the hospital
as the exclusive representative of the majority of employees in a
bargaining unit for purposes of collective bargaining, and in the further
event that a purchaser or lessor subject to the National Labor Relations
Act retains or hires a majority of the employees in such a bargaining unit,
such purchaser or lessor shall recognize the labor organization as the
exclusive representative of the majority of employees in that bargaining
unit for purposes of collective bargaining, provided that the labor
organization makes a timely written assertion of its representational
capacity to the purchaser or lessor.

(65 ILCS 5/11-23-1) (from Ch. 24, par. 11-23-1)
Sec. 11-23-1.
Whenever at least 100 electors of a city with a population of less
than 100,000 present a petition to the city clerk of the city asking
that an annual tax, not to exceed .06% of the value, as equalized or
assessed by the Department of Revenue, be levied each
year on all taxable property of the city for the establishment and
maintenance of a public hospital, or for the purchase and maintenance of
an existing nonsectarian public hospital, within the city, the city clerk
shall certify the proposition for submission at an election in accordance
with the general
election law. The proposition shall be in substantially the following form: "Shall a
....% tax, for establishing and maintaining (or for purchasing and
maintaining) a public hospital be levied against the taxable property of
the city of ....?" and shall specify the rate
of taxation mentioned in the petition. If a majority of all votes cast
on the proposition are in favor of the proposition, the tax specified in
the notice shall be levied and collected annually in the same manner as
are other general taxes in the city, and shall be known as the hospital
fund. However, municipalities authorized to levy this tax on July 1,
1967, shall have a rate limit of .06%, or the limit in effect on July 1,
1967, whichever is greater. Thereafter, the city council shall include
an appropriation in the annual appropriation ordinance of such sums of
money as may be necessary to defray all necessary expenses and
liabilities of the hospital. This annual hospital tax shall be in
addition to the amount authorized to be levied for general purposes
under Section 8-3-1 and shall be exclusive thereof and not included
within any limitation of rate or amount for other municipal purposes.
The foregoing limitations upon tax rates may be increased or
decreased under the referendum provisions of the General Revenue Law of
Illinois.

In case an annual hospital tax has been levied and
collected under this Division 23 for 3 or more consecutive years, and
the city has not established or maintained, or purchased and maintained,
a hospital in accordance with this Division 23, the mayor of the city,
with the approval of the city council, may authorize the payment of all
funds in the city treasury derived from that tax, to any nonsectarian
public hospital within or without the corporate limits of the city
maintained for the use and benefit of the inhabitants of the city who
are sick or are injured or maimed. These funds, when so turned over to
such a hospital, shall be used solely for its maintenance under the sole
control of the management of the hospital. Thereafter, funds derived
from this annual hospital tax shall be turned over to that hospital as
soon as received by the city, until the city council shall provide
otherwise by an ordinance approved by a majority of the electors voting
thereon at any election. The city council may order
such ordinance certified by the clerk and submitted by the proper election
authority to the voters at any election in accordance with the general election law.
The management of such a hospital shall submit to the city council a
semi-annual report of the expenditure of such funds as have been
received from the city from the hospital tax.

In the event any municipality has
established a city public
hospital in accordance with the provisions of Section 11-23-1 and in the
further event the corporate authorities shall
determine that the hospital
is no longer needed for the purposes for which it was established or that
those purposes would be better served through the operation of the city
hospital by a corporation, hospital, health care
facility, unit of local government or institution of higher education, the
corporate authorities by ordinance may authorize the
transfer, sale or lease of the hospital to such corporation, hospital,
health care facility, unit of local government or institution of higher
education within or without
the corporate limits of the city, or may authorize the sale or lease of the
hospital to any mental health clinic which obtains any portion of its funds
from the Department of Human Services (as successor to the Department of
Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities). Such
transfer, sale or lease may be on such terms and under such conditions as
the corporate authorities may deem proper without
regard to any provisions of
Division 9 of Article 8 or Divisions 75, 76, 77 and 78 of this Article 11.
At least 10 days prior to the adoption of an ordinance under this
Section the corporate authorities shall make the proposed ordinance
conveniently available for public inspection and shall hold at least one
public hearing thereon. Notice of this hearing shall be published in one
or more newspapers published in the municipality, or if there is none
published in the municipality, in a newspaper having general circulation in
the municipality, at least 10 days prior to the time of the public hearing.
Such notice shall state the time and place of the hearing and the place
where copies of the proposed ordinance will be accessible for examination.
If a city public hospital is transferred, sold or leased as authorized
by this section and if no bonds issued under the provisions of Section
11-23-6 or Section 11-23-13 are outstanding, the city council may transfer
any excess funds remaining in the Hospital Fund to the general fund of the
city to be expended for capital expenditures only and not for operating
expenses of the city.
In the event that prior to the sale or lease of the hospital pursuant
to this Section, a labor organization has been recognized by the hospital
as the exclusive representative of the majority of employees in a
bargaining unit for purposes of collective bargaining, and in the further
event that a purchaser or lessor subject to the National Labor Relations
Act retains or hires a majority of the employees in such a bargaining unit,
such purchaser or lessor shall recognize the labor organization as the
exclusive representative of the majority of employees in that bargaining
unit for purposes of collective bargaining, provided that the labor
organization makes a timely written assertion of its representational
capacity to the purchaser or lessor.

When such a city council has decided to establish and
maintain, or to purchase and maintain, a public hospital under this
Division 23, the mayor, with the approval of the city council, shall
appoint a board of 3 directors for the hospital.
One of the directors shall hold office for one year, one for 2 years,
and one for 3 years, from the first day of July following their
appointments. At their first regular meeting the directors shall cast lots
for the respective terms. Before the first day of July each year
thereafter, the mayor, with the approval of the city council, shall appoint
one director to take the place of the retiring director, who shall hold
office for 3 years, and until his successor is appointed.
The city council may, by resolution, increase the membership of the
board to 5 directors. Such resolution shall not affect the terms of the
incumbent directors. Before the first day of July following the adoption of
such resolution the mayor with the approval of the city council, shall
appoint 3 directors, one to succeed the incumbent whose term expires and
the 2 additional provided for in the resolution, for terms of 3, 4 and 5
years from July 1 of the year of the appointment. Thereafter, upon the
expiration of the term of any director his successor shall be appointed for
a term of 5 years and until his successor is appointed for a like term.
If the city council has, by previous resolution, increased the
membership of the board to 5 directors, the city council may by new
resolution increase the membership of the board by 2 new members in any one
year up to a maximum of 11 directors. Such new resolution shall not affect
the terms of incumbent directors. Before the first day of July following
the adoption of the new resolution the mayor with the approval of the city
council shall appoint a sufficient number of directors so that there will
be a successor for the full term of each incumbent whose term expires, and
the 2 additional provided for in the resolution for terms of 4 and 5 years
from July 1 of the year of appointment. Thereafter, upon the expiration of
the term of any director, his successor shall be appointed for a term of 5
years and until his successor is appointed and qualified for a like term.
The mayor, with the consent of the city council, may remove any director
for misconduct or neglect of duty. Vacancies in the board of directors,
however occasioned, shall be filled for the unexpired term in like manner
as original appointments. No director shall receive compensation for
serving as a director. No director shall be interested, either directly or
indirectly, in the purchase or sale of any supplies for the hospital.

Immediately after their appointment the directors shall meet
to organize by the election of one of their number president and one as
secretary and by the election of such other officers as they may deem
necessary. They shall adopt such by-laws, rules, and regulations for their
own guidance and for the government of the hospital as may be expedient and
not inconsistent with ordinances of the city. They have the exclusive
control of the expenditure of all money collected to the credit of the
hospital fund. All money received for the hospital shall be deposited in
the city treasury to the credit of the hospital fund, and drawn upon by the
proper city officers upon the proper authenticated vouchers of the hospital
board. The board has the power to purchase or lease ground and to occupy,
lease, or erect appropriate buildings for the use of the hospital. It has
the exclusive control of the supervision, care, and custody of the grounds,
leases, and buildings constructed, leased, or set apart for that purpose.
The board has the power to appoint a suitable superintendent or matron, or
both, and necessary assistants, to fix their compensation and to remove
such appointees. The board in general shall carry out the spirit and intent
of this Division 23 in establishing and maintaining or in purchasing and
maintaining a public hospital. The board is authorized to approve the
provision of any service and to approve any contract or other arrangement
not prohibited by a hospital licensed under the Hospital Licensing Act,
incorporated under the General Not-For-Profit Corporation Act, and exempt
from taxation under paragraph (3) of subsection (c) of Section 501 of the
Internal Revenue Code. One or all of the directors shall visit and
examine the hospital at least twice each month and the board shall make
monthly reports of its condition to the city council.

The corporate authorities of a city specified in this
Division 23 may provide that bonds of the city be issued for the purpose
of (1) constructing and equipping a hospital building or buildings, (2)
purchasing and maintaining an existing nonsectarian public hospital
within the city's corporate limits, or of (3) reconstructing, repairing,
remodeling, and improving, or of (4) extending and equipping, an
existing hospital building or buildings now owned and operated by the
city. These bonds shall be authorized by an ordinance and shall mature
at such time, not to exceed 20 years from their date of issue, and bear
such rate of interest, not to exceed the maximum rate authorized by the
Bond Authorization Act, as amended at the time of the making of the
contract, payable annually or semi-annually, as the corporate authorities may determine.
The ordinance providing for the issuance of these bonds shall be
submitted to the electors of the city at an election conducted in accordance
with the general election law. The proposition shall be certified by the
municipal clerk and submitted by the proper election authority. If a majority
of the votes cast on this proposition are favorable, the bonds shall be
issued for the purpose and in the amount specified in the ordinance. Prior
to July 1, 1944, however, in the event that aid is to be received from any
agency of the Federal Government in the construction of the project for
which these bonds are to be issued and a declaration of that fact is set
forth in the ordinance providing for the issuance of the bonds, the
ordinance shall become effective immediately upon passage, without
submission to the electors and notwithstanding any provision in this Code
or in any other law to the contrary. The declaration of the corporate
authorities that the project is to be paid for either in whole or in part
by a grant from a Federal agency, as set forth in the ordinance, is
conclusive. These bonds shall be signed by the president and secretary of
the hospital board and by the mayor and city clerk, or commissioner of
accounts and finance of the city, and shall be payable out of the taxes to
be collected for hospital purposes in that city.
With respect to instruments for the payment of money issued under this
Section either before, on, or after the effective date of this amendatory
Act of 1989, it is and always has been the intention of the General
Assembly (i) that the Omnibus Bond Acts are and always have been supplementary
grants of power to issue instruments in accordance with the Omnibus Bond
Acts, regardless of any provision of this Act that may appear to be or to
have been more restrictive than those Acts, (ii) that the provisions of
this Section are not a limitation on the supplementary authority granted by
the Omnibus Bond Acts, and (iii) that instruments issued under this Section
within the supplementary authority granted by the Omnibus Bond Acts are not
invalid because of any provision of this Act that may appear to be or to
have been more restrictive than those Acts.

number. The board may exclude from the use of the hospital all inhabitants
and persons who wilfully violate those rules and regulations. The board may
extend the privileges and use of the hospital to persons residing outside
of the city but within this state, upon such terms and conditions as the
board may prescribe by its rules and regulations.
