| Public Act 097-0379 | ||||
| ||||
| ||||
AN ACT concerning local government.
| ||||
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois, | ||||
represented in the General Assembly:
| ||||
Section 5. The Counties Code is amended by changing Section | ||||
3-6013 as follows:
| ||||
(55 ILCS 5/3-6013) (from Ch. 34, par. 3-6013)
| ||||
Sec. 3-6013. Duties, training and compensation of | ||||
auxiliary deputies. Auxiliary deputies shall not supplement | ||||
members of the regular county
police department or regular | ||||
deputies in the performance of their assigned
and normal | ||||
duties, except as provided herein. Auxiliary deputies may be
| ||||
assigned and directed by the sheriff to perform the following | ||||
duties in
the county:
| ||||
To aid or direct traffic within the county, to aid in | ||||
control of natural
or human made disasters, to aid in case of | ||||
civil disorder as assigned and
directed by the sheriff, | ||||
provided, that in emergency cases which render it
impractical | ||||
for members of the regular county police department or regular
| ||||
deputies to perform their assigned and normal duties, the | ||||
sheriff is hereby
authorized to assign and direct auxiliary | ||||
deputies to perform such regular
and normal duties. | ||||
Identification symbols worn by such auxiliary deputies
shall be | ||||
different and distinct from those used by members of the | ||||
regular
county police department or regular deputies. Such | ||
auxiliary deputies
shall at all times during the performance of | ||
their duties be subject to the
direction and control of the | ||
sheriff of the county. Such auxiliary deputies
shall not carry | ||
firearms, except with the permission of the sheriff, and
only | ||
while in uniform and in the performance of their assigned | ||
duties.
| ||
Auxiliary deputies, prior to entering upon any of their | ||
duties, shall
receive a course of training in the use of | ||
weapons and other police
procedures as shall be appropriate in | ||
the exercise of the powers
conferred upon them under this | ||
Division, which training and
course of study shall be | ||
determined and provided by the sheriff of each
county utilizing | ||
auxiliary deputies, provided that, before being
permitted to | ||
carry a firearm an auxiliary deputy must have the same
course | ||
of training as required of peace officers in Section 2 of the
| ||
Peace Officer Firearm Training Act. The county authorities | ||
shall require
that all auxiliary deputies be residents of the | ||
county served by them.
Prior to the appointment of any | ||
auxiliary deputy his or her fingerprints
shall be taken and no | ||
person shall be appointed as such auxiliary deputy if
he or she | ||
has been convicted of a felony or other crime involving moral
| ||
turpitude.
| ||
Auxiliary deputies may receive such compensation as is set | ||
by the County Board, with the advice and consent of the | ||
Sheriff, not to exceed the lowest hourly pay of a full-time | ||
sworn member of the regular county police or sheriff's | ||
department and not be paid a salary, except as provided in
| ||
Section 3-6036, but may be reimbursed for actual expenses | ||
incurred in
performing their assigned duty. The County Board | ||
must approve such actual
expenses and arrange for payment.
| ||
Nothing in this Division shall preclude an auxiliary deputy | ||
from holding
a simultaneous appointment as an auxiliary police | ||
officer pursuant to Section
3-6-5 of the Illinois Municipal | ||
Code.
