 1        AN ACT concerning townships.

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

 4        Section 5.  The Township  Code  is  amended  by  changing
 5    Section 110-30 as follows:

 6        (60 ILCS 1/110-30)
 7        Sec. 110-30.  Enforcement of ordinance or resolution. All
 8    ordinances or resolutions adopted under this Article shall be
 9    enforced   by  an  officer  of  the  township  designated  by
10    ordinance or resolution.  The  ordinance  or  resolution  may
11    require that for any class or classes of districts created by
12    it,  applications  be  made for permits to erect buildings or
13    structures or to  alter  or  remodel  existing  buildings  or
14    structures.   The  ordinance  or  resolution  may vest in the
15    officer designated to enforce it the power  to  make  orders,
16    requirements,  decisions,  and determinations with respect to
17    the enforcement of the terms of the ordinance or resolution.
18        The officer is authorized to issue  and  serve  upon  any
19    person  that the officer has reasonable grounds to believe is
20    guilty of a violation of a zoning code  or  building  code  a
21    stop  order requiring that person to cease construction until
22    a release is obtained from the  county  building  and  zoning
23    commission. A copy of the stop order must be forwarded to the
24    building and zoning commission that has jurisdiction over the
25    township   where  the  violation  is  alleged  to  have  been
26    committed. The officer  has  the  same  power  and  authority
27    within  the  township  as  an inspector of building codes and
28    zoning, as authorized by the township board  and  the  zoning
29    authority that has jurisdiction over the township.
