1 | AMENDMENT TO HOUSE BILL 1721
| ||||||
2 | AMENDMENT NO. ______. Amend House Bill 1721 by replacing | ||||||
3 | everything after the enacting clause with the following:
| ||||||
4 | "Section 5. The Public Officer Prohibited Activities Act | ||||||
5 | is amended by changing Section 2a as follows:
| ||||||
6 | (50 ILCS 105/2a) (from Ch. 102, par. 2a)
| ||||||
7 | Sec. 2a. Township officials. | ||||||
8 | (a) No township
supervisor or trustee, during the term of | ||||||
9 | office for which he or
she is elected, may accept, be appointed | ||||||
10 | to, or hold any office
by the appointment of the board of | ||||||
11 | township trustees unless he or
she first resigns from the | ||||||
12 | office of supervisor or trustee or
unless the appointment is | ||||||
13 | specifically authorized by law. A
supervisor or trustee may, | ||||||
14 | however, serve as a volunteer firefighter
and receive | ||||||
15 | compensation for that service. Any appointment in
violation of | ||||||
16 | this Section is void.
Nothing in this Act shall be construed to |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | prohibit an elected township
official from holding elected | ||||||
2 | office in another unit of local government as
long as there is | ||||||
3 | no contractual relationship between the township and the other
| ||||||
4 | unit of local government. This amendatory Act of 1995 is | ||||||
5 | declarative of
existing law and is not a new enactment. | ||||||
6 | (b) On and after the effective date of this amendatory Act | ||||||
7 | of the 100th General Assembly, a person elected to or | ||||||
8 | appointed to fill a vacancy in an elected township position, | ||||||
9 | including, but not limited to, a trustee, a supervisor, a | ||||||
10 | highway commissioner, a clerk, an assessor, or a collector, | ||||||
11 | shall not be employed by the township, except that a | ||||||
12 | supervisor or trustee may serve as a volunteer firefighter
and | ||||||
13 | receive compensation for that service as provided in | ||||||
14 | subsection (a).
| ||||||
15 | (c) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, any | ||||||
16 | township official for a township with a population of less | ||||||
17 | than 2,500 inhabitants, including, but not limited to, a | ||||||
18 | trustee for such a township, may serve as a member of a board | ||||||
19 | of education, member of a regional board of school trustees, | ||||||
20 | member of a board of school directors, or member of a board of | ||||||
21 | school inspectors. | ||||||
22 | (Source: P.A. 100-868, eff. 1-1-19 .)
| ||||||
23 | Section 99. Effective date. This Act takes effect upon | ||||||
24 | becoming law.".
