Illinois Compiled Statutes
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.

constitute a joint committee on garbage and refuse disposal. Such joint
committee shall make recommendations necessary for the improvement of the
garbage, refuse and ashes collection and disposal services or collection

such rules and regulations as it may from time to time deem necessary. The
corporate authorities may adopt such rules and regulations by ordinance and
may provide penalties for the violation thereof. The committee chosen by
each of the contracting parties shall have a single vote in all activities
of the joint committee.
