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.
(70 ILCS 1205/2-2.1) (from Ch. 105, par. 2-2.1)
Sec. 2-2.1.
(a) When 2 or more park districts are situated entirely within
the corporate limits of the same municipality, a park district coterminous with
such municipality may be organized in the manner hereinafter provided, and,
when so organized, shall supersede the park districts previously existing
within the limits of the municipality. The petition to organize such a park
district shall comply with the requirements of Section 2-2, but must be
signed by not less than 100 legal voters residing in each of the existing
park districts and, if the municipality includes territory not included
within any existing park district, by at least 100 legal voters residing in
such territory or by at least 10% of the legal voters residing in such
territory, whichever is less. The petition shall also state whether the
proposed district shall have 5 elected commissioners or 7 appointed
commissioners. If the proposed district shall have 7 appointed
commissioners, the chief executive officer of the municipality, with the
advice and consent of the corporate authorities, shall appoint the
commissioners. The initial appointed commissioners shall serve terms
determined by lot as follows: 2 for terms of 2 years, 2 for terms of 4
years, and 3 for terms of 6 years. Thereafter, appointed commissioners
shall serve for terms of 6 years. A vacancy in the office of appointed
commissioner shall be filled for the unexpired term in the same manner as
an original appointment. "Municipality" as used in this Section means a city, village or
incorporated town.
