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.

Examination requirement - Counties of 100,000 or more.

In

inhabitants, no person may serve on the board of review who has not passed an
examination prepared and administered by the Department to determine his or her
competence to hold the office.  The examination shall be conducted by the
Department at some convenient location in the county. The Department may
provide by rule the maximum time that the name of a person who has passed the
examination will be included on a list of persons eligible for appointment or
election. The county board of any other county may, by resolution, impose a
like requirement in its county. In counties with less than 100,000 inhabitants,
the members of the board of review shall within one year of taking office
successfully complete a basic course in assessment practice approved by the
Department.
In counties with 3,000,000 or more inhabitants, the members of the

review shall successfully complete a basic
