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.

    (65 ILCS 115/10-4)
    Sec. 10-4. Qualifications for River Edge Redevelopment Zones. An area is qualified to become a zone if it:
        (1) is a contiguous area adjacent to or surrounding a

river;

(2) comprises a minimum of one half square mile and

not more than 12 square miles, exclusive of lakes and waterways;

(3) satisfies any additional criteria established by

the Department consistent with the purposes of this Act;

(4) is entirely within a single municipality; and
(5) has at least 100 acres of environmentally

challenged land within 1500 yards of the riverfront.

Any River Edge Redevelopment Zone may have an overlapping geographic area with an Enterprise Zone. If a taxpayer is located in an area with an overlapping Enterprise Zone and River Edge Redevelopment Zone, the taxpayer must elect, in the form and manner required by the Department, from which program it would like to request benefits.
