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. 25. Installment payment contract; lease purchase agreement. A unit of local
government, or
units of local government in combination, may enter into an
installment payment contract or lease purchase agreement with a qualified
provider or with a third party, as authorized by law, for the funding or financing of the purchase and installation of energy conservation measures by a qualified provider.
Every unit of local government may issue certificates evidencing the
indebtedness
incurred pursuant to the contracts or agreements. Any such contract or
agreement shall be valid whether or not an appropriation with respect
thereto is first included in any annual or supplemental budget adopted by
the unit of local government. Each contract or agreement entered
into by a unit of local government pursuant to this Section shall be authorized
by
official action of the unit of local government's governing body. The authority granted under this Section is in addition to any other authority granted by law.
If an energy audit is performed by an energy services contractor for a unit of local government within the 3 years immediately preceding the solicitation, then the unit of local government must publish as a reference document in the solicitation for energy conservation measures the following: (1) an executive summary of the energy audit provided |
| that the unit of local government may exclude any proprietary or trademarked information or practices; or
|
|
(2) the energy audit provided that the unit of local

A unit of local government may not withhold the disclosure of information related to (i) the unit of local government's consumption of energy, (ii) the physical condition of the unit of local government's facilities, and (iii) any limitations prescribed by the unit of local government.
The solicitation must include a written disclosure that identifies any energy services contractor that participated in the preparation of the specifications issued by the unit of local government. If no energy services contractor participated in the preparation of the specifications issued by the unit of local government, then the solicitation must include a written disclosure that no energy services contractor participated in the preparation of the specifications for the unit of local government. The written disclosure shall be published in the Capital Development Board Procurement Bulletin with the Request for Proposal.
