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.
(210 ILCS 125/27) (from Ch. 111 1/2, par. 1227)
Sec. 27. Adoption of ordinances. Any unit of government having a certified local
health department may administer and enforce this
Act by adopting an ordinance electing to administer and enforce this Act
and adopting by reference the rules promulgated and
amended from time to time by the Department under authority of this Act.
A unit of local government that so qualified and elects to administer
and enforce this Act shall furnish the Department a copy of its ordinance
and the names and qualifications of the employees required by this Act. The
unit of local government ordinance shall then prevail in lieu of the State
licensure and inspection program with the exception of Section 5 of
this Act which provides for permits for construction or major alteration, and Sections 5.1, 5.2, 30, and 31, which provisions shall continue to be administered by the
Department. With the exception of permits as provided for in Section 5 of this Act, a unit of local government may collect fees for administration of ordinances adopted pursuant to this Section. Units of local government shall require such State permits as
provided in Section 5 prior to issuing licenses for swimming facilities constructed or altered in a major
manner in accordance with this Act.
Not less than once every 3 years the Department shall evaluate each unit of
local government's licensing and inspection program to determine whether
such program is being operated and enforced in accordance with this Act and
the rules promulgated thereunder. If the Department finds,
after investigation, that such program is not being enforced within the
provisions of this Act or the rules promulgated
thereunder, the Director shall give written notice of such findings to the
unit of government. If the Department finds, not less than 30 days after such
given notice, that the program is not being conducted and enforced within
the provisions of this Act or the rules promulgated
thereunder, the Director shall give written notice to the unit of
government that its authority to administer this Act is revoked. Any unit
of government whose authority to administer this Act is revoked may request
an administrative hearing as provided in this Act. If the unit of
government fails to request a hearing within 15 days after receiving the notice or if, after such hearing, the
Director confirms the revocation, all swimming facilities then operating under
such unit of government shall be immediately
subject to the State licensure fee and inspection program, until such time
as the unit of government is again authorized by the Department to
administer and enforce this Act.
