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.

225 ILCS 205/3

(225 ILCS 205/3) (from Ch. 85, par. 2003)

Sec. 3.

No such permit shall be granted by a fair board until it has
investigated the carnival and is satisfied that, if permitted, it will be
operated in accordance with the permit and the provisions of this Act. Such
fair boards are authorized to issue the permit and to collect permit fees
necessary to pay the expenses of the investigation and to aid in policing
the grounds and otherwise to compensate the association in such amount as
they may determine. Each permit shall contain the proviso that sheriffs and
police officers shall have free access to the grounds and all booths, shows
and concessions on such grounds at all times, and it shall be the duty of
all officers present at such carnival to enforce all the provisions of this
Act.
