Information maintained by the Legislative
Reference Bureau
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.
65 ILCS 5/10-1-1
(65 ILCS 5/10-1-1) (from Ch. 24, par. 10-1-1)
Sec. 10-1-1.
The mayor of each municipality which adopts this Division 1 as
hereinafter provided shall, not less than 40 nor more than 90 days after
the taking effect of this Division 1 in such municipality, appoint 3
persons, who shall constitute and be known as the civil service
commissioners of such municipality, one for 3 years, one for 2 years and
one for one year from the time of appointment and until their respective
successors are appointed and qualified. In every year thereafter the mayor
shall, in like manner, appoint one person as the successor of the
commissioner whose term shall expire in that year to serve as such
commissioner for 3 years and until his successor is appointed and
qualified. Two commissioners shall constitute a quorum. All appointments to
the commission, both original and to fill vacancies, shall be so made that
not more than 2 members shall, at the time of appointment, be members of
the same political party. The commissioners shall hold no other lucrative
office or employment under the United States, the State of Illinois, or any
municipal corporation or political division thereof. No person shall be
appointed a commissioner who has been convicted of a felony under the laws
of this State or comparable laws of any other state or the United States.
Each commissioner, before entering upon the duties of his office, shall
take the oath prescribed by the constitution of this state.
However, in any municipality having the commission form of municipal
government, the appointment of civil service commissioners shall be made by
the corporate authorities, and the corporate authorities may, by ordinance,
provide that 5 commissioners shall be so appointed, one for one year, 2 for
2 years and 2 for 3 years. The corporate authorities shall appoint, in a
like manner, the successors of the commissioners whose terms expire in that
year to serve as commissioners for 3 years and until their successors are
appointed and qualified. Three members shall constitute a quorum, and no
more than 3 of the commissioners shall be of the same political party. If
such municipality has adopted this Division 1 prior to the effective date
of this amendatory Act of 1965, and subsequently provides, by ordinance,
for 5 commissioners, 2 additional commissioners shall be so appointed, one
for 2 years and one for 3 years, and successors shall be appointed in a
like manner as commissions established after such effective date.
