    AN ACT to amend the Illinois Municipal Code  by  changing
Section 3.1-40-50.

    Be  it  enacted  by  the People of the State of Illinois,
represented in the General Assembly:

    Section 5.  The Illinois Municipal  Code  is  amended  by
changing Section 3.1-40-50 as follows:

    (65 ILCS 5/3.1-40-50) (from Ch. 24, par. 3.1-40-50)
    Sec.   3.1-40-50.  Reconsideration;  passing  over  veto.
Every resolution and motion specified in  Section  3.1-40-45,
and  every ordinance, that is returned to the city council by
the mayor shall be reconsidered by the city  council  at  the
next  regular  meeting following the regular meeting at which
the city council receives the mayor's written objection.  If,
after reconsideration, two-thirds of all  the  aldermen  then
holding  office  on  the  city  council agree at that regular
meeting  to  pass  an  ordinance,  resolution,   or   motion,
notwithstanding  the  mayor's  refusal to approve it, then it
shall be effective. The vote on the question of passage  over
the  mayor's  veto  shall  be  by  yeas and nays and shall be
recorded in the journal.
    This Section does not apply to municipalities  with  more
than 500,000 inhabitants.
