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.

55 ILCS 5/5-1104.1

(55 ILCS 5/5-1104.1) (from Ch. 34, par. 5-1104.1)

Sec. 5-1104.1.

If a forest preserve district organized under the
Downstate Forest Preserve District Act has, either before or after the
effective date of this amendatory Act of 1991, adopted a comprehensive
policy for the
management and maintenance of the streams, lakes, ponds and water courses
located on the property owned by the district, the power conferred on a
county board under Section 5-1104 shall be exercised in a manner consistent
with such comprehensive policy and only pursuant to an intergovernmental
agreement between the forest preserve district and the county specifying in
detail the respective obligations of the parties.

A county may, either before or after the
effective date of this amendatory Act of the 97th General Assembly, enter into an intergovernmental agreement with any forest preserve district within the county that exempts the forest preserve district from compliance with county zoning ordinances.
