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.

(505 ILCS 145/30)

Sec. 30. Referenda; petitions.

Within 90 days after final approval of any proposed wheat development program
by the temporary wheat
development program committee,
the Director shall determine by referendum whether
the affected producers assent to
the proposed wheat development program.  The proposed wheat development
program is approved when a
majority of those voting in the referendum vote in favor of the proposed wheat
development program.  Following
approval of the program, the Department shall file the program with the
Secretary of State
as provided in Section 5-65 of the
Illinois Administrative Procedure Act.

If a proposed wheat development program is not approved by
referendum, no additional referendum on
a wheat development program may be held for 2 years from the date of the
close of the referendum period.  An additional
referendum shall be called by the Director upon request by petition
of 500 producers of wheat from across the State.  Before holding an additional
referendum, the
Director shall appoint a temporary wheat development program committee
consisting of 7 members who are
wheat producers nominated by an association representing wheat producers.  The temporary wheat development program committee shall
follow
the procedures set forth in Section 25.
