| 1 | | AMENDMENT TO SENATE BILL 2299
|
| 2 | | AMENDMENT NO. ______. Amend Senate Bill 2299 by replacing |
| 3 | | everything after the enacting clause with the following:
|
| 4 | | "Section 5. The Public Officer Prohibited Activities Act is |
| 5 | | amended by changing Sections 2a and 4 as follows:
|
| 6 | | (50 ILCS 105/2a) (from Ch. 102, par. 2a)
|
| 7 | | Sec. 2a. Township officials Township supervisors and |
| 8 | | trustees. |
| 9 | | (a) No township
supervisor or trustee, during the term of |
| 10 | | office for which he or
she is elected, may accept, be appointed |
| 11 | | to, or hold any office
by the appointment of the board of |
| 12 | | township trustees unless he or
she first resigns from the |
| 13 | | office of supervisor or trustee or
unless the appointment is |
| 14 | | specifically authorized by law. A
supervisor or trustee may, |
| 15 | | however, serve as a volunteer firefighter fireman
and receive |
| 16 | | compensation for that service. Any appointment in
violation of |
|
| | 10000SB2299sam001 | - 2 - | LRB100 16715 AWJ 37910 a |
|
|
| 1 | | this Section is void.
Nothing in this Act shall be construed to |
| 2 | | prohibit an elected township
official from holding elected |
| 3 | | office in another unit of local government as
long as there is |
| 4 | | no contractual relationship between the township and the other
|
| 5 | | unit of local government. This amendatory Act of 1995 is |
| 6 | | declarative of
existing law and is not a new enactment. |
| 7 | | (b) On and after the effective date of this amendatory Act |
| 8 | | of the 100th General Assembly, a person elected to or appointed |
| 9 | | to fill a vacancy in an elected township position, including, |
| 10 | | but not limited to, a trustee, a supervisor, a highway |
| 11 | | commissioner, a clerk, an assessor, or a collector, shall not |
| 12 | | be employed by the township, except that a supervisor or |
| 13 | | trustee may serve as a volunteer firefighter
and receive |
| 14 | | compensation for that service as provided in subsection (a).
