65 ILCS 5/ Illinois Municipal Code.

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.

Sec. 11-55-2.

No municipality with a population of less than
1,000,000, including a home rule unit, may
increase the fee for a license to own or operate a vending machine or to
dispense goods or services therefrom unless notice of a public hearing on
the matter has been given and such hearing has been held.  The amount of the increase annually shall  not exceed the greater of (i) $25,  (ii) the amount of the fee multiplied by 5%,  or (iii) the amount of the fee multiplied by the percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers for all items published by the United States Department of  Labor during the 12-month calendar year preceding the year in which the fee is increased. Notice of the
proposed increase shall be mailed at least 30 days before the hearing to
the last known address of each person currently holding such a license.  It
is declared to be the law of this State,
pursuant to paragraph (g) of Section 6 of Article VII of the Illinois
Constitution, that this Section is a denial of the power of certain
home rule units to increase vending machine license fees without complying
with the requirements of this Section.

Sec. 11-57-1.

The corporate authorities may compel railroad companies to
raise or lower their tracks to conform to any grade which, at any time, is
established by a municipality. Where the tracks run lengthwise of any
street or alley, the companies shall keep their tracks on a level with the
street surface, so that the tracks may be crossed at any place on that
street or alley.

The corporate authorities may compel railroad companies to make, open,
and repair ditches, drains, sewers, and culverts along and under their
tracks, so that water cannot stand on their property, and so that the
natural drainage of adjacent property is not impeded.
