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.
(230 ILCS 5/24) (from Ch. 8, par. 37-24)
Sec. 24.
(a) No license shall be issued to or held by an organization
licensee unless all of its officers, directors, and holders of ownership
interests of at least 5% are first approved by the Board. The Board shall not
give approval of an organization license application to any person who has been
convicted of or is under an indictment for a crime of moral turpitude or has
violated any provision of the racing law of this State or any rules of the
Board.
(b) An organization licensee must notify the Board within 10 days of any
change in the holders of a direct or indirect interest in the ownership of the
organization licensee. The Board may, after hearing, revoke the organization
license of any
person who registers on its books or knowingly permits a direct or indirect
interest in the ownership of that person without notifying the Board of the
name of the holder in interest within this period.
(c) In addition to the provisions of subsection
(a) of this Section, no person shall be granted an
organization
license if
any public official of the State or member of his
or her family holds any ownership or financial interest, directly or
indirectly, in the person.
(d) No person which has been granted an organization
license
to hold a race meeting shall give to any public official or member of his
family, directly or indirectly, for or without consideration, any interest in the person. The Board shall, after hearing, revoke
the organization license granted to a person which has
violated this subsection.
(e) (Blank).
(f) No organization licensee or concessionaire or officer, director or
holder or controller of
5% or more legal or beneficial interest in any organization licensee or
concession
shall make any sort of
gift or contribution that is prohibited under Article 10 of the State Officials and Employees Ethics Act or pay or give any money or other thing
of value to any
person who is a public official, or a candidate or nominee for public office if that payment or gift is prohibited under Article 10 of the State Officials and Employees Ethics Act.
