12 | construction may be undertaken pursuant to this Section before | ||||||
13 | a comprehensive master plan has been approved under Section 60. | ||||||
14 | Section 30. Relocation assistance. The Commission may | ||||||
15 | provide relocation assistance to persons and entities | ||||||
16 | displaced by the Commission's acquisition of property and | ||||||

20 | and the regulations under that Act, including the eligibility | ||||||
21 | criteria. Relocation assistance may include assistance with | ||||||
22 | the moving of a residential unit to a new location. The | ||||||
23 | Commission shall establish a single point of contact for all | ||||||
24 | relocation assistance under this Section. |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | Section 35. Power to sell or lease. The Commission may | ||||||
2 | sell, convey, transfer, or lease, all at fair market value, any | ||||||
3 | title or interest in real property owned by it to any person or | ||||||
4 | persons, to be used, subject to the restrictions of this Act, | ||||||
5 | for the purposes stated in Section 25, for the purpose of | ||||||
6 | serving persons using the facilities offered within the | ||||||
7 | District, or for carrying out of any aspect of the Commission's | ||||||
8 | purposes as set forth in Section 10 of this Act, subject to the | ||||||
9 | restrictions as to the use of the real property as the | ||||||
10 | Commission determines will carry out the purpose of this Act. | ||||||
11 | To assure that the use of the real property sold or leased | ||||||
12 | under this Section is in accordance with the provisions of this | ||||||
13 | Act, the Commission shall inquire into and satisfy itself | ||||||
14 | concerning the financial ability of the purchaser to complete | ||||||
15 | the project for which the real property is sold or leased in | ||||||
16 | accordance with a plan to be presented by the purchaser or | ||||||
17 | lessee, which plan shall be submitted, in writing, to the | ||||||
18 | Commission. Under the plan, the purchaser or lessee shall | ||||||
19 | undertake (i) to use the land for the purposes designated in | ||||||
20 | the presented plan; (ii) to commence and complete the | ||||||
21 | construction of the buildings or other structures to be | ||||||
22 | included in the project within the periods of time as the | ||||||
23 | Commission fixes as reasonable; and (iii) to comply with any | ||||||
24 | other conditions as the Commission shall determine are | ||||||
25 | necessary to carry out the project. All conveyances and leases | ||||||
26 | authorized in this Section shall be on condition that, in the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | event of use for other than the purposes prescribed in this | ||||||
2 | Act, or of nonuse for a period of one year, title to the | ||||||
3 | property reverts to the Commission. All conveyances and leases | ||||||
4 | made by the Commission to any corporation or person for the use | ||||||
5 | of serving the residents or any person using the facilities | ||||||
6 | offered within the District shall be on condition that in the | ||||||
7 | event of violation of any of the restrictions as to the use of | ||||||
8 | the property as the Commission shall have determined will carry | ||||||
9 | out the purposes of this Act, that title to the property | ||||||
10 | reverts to the Commission. If, however, the Commission finds | ||||||
11 | that financing necessary for the acquisition or lease of any | ||||||
12 | real estate or for the construction of any building or | ||||||
13 | improvement to be used for purposes prescribed in this Act | ||||||
14 | cannot be obtained if title to the land, building, or | ||||||
15 | improvement is subject to such a reverter provision, the | ||||||
16 | finding shall be made by the Commission after a public hearing | ||||||
17 | held pursuant to a single publication notice given in a secular | ||||||
18 | newspaper of general circulation in Cook County at least 10 | ||||||
19 | days before the date of the hearing, the notice to specify the | ||||||
20 | time, place, and purpose for the hearing, and upon that finding | ||||||
21 | being made, the Commission may cause the real property to be | ||||||
22 | conveyed free of a reverter provision, provided that at least 7 | ||||||
23 | members of the Commission vote in favor thereof. The Commission | ||||||
24 | may also provide in the conveyances, leases, or other | ||||||
25 | documentation provisions for notice of such violations or | ||||||
26 | default and the cure thereof for the benefit of any lender or |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | mortgagee as the Commission shall determine are appropriate. | ||||||
2 | If, at a regularly scheduled meeting, the Commission resolves | ||||||
3 | that a parcel of real estate leased by it, or in which it has | ||||||
4 | sold the fee simple title or any lesser estate, is not being | ||||||
5 | used for the purposes prescribed in this Act or has been in | ||||||
6 | nonuse for a period of one year, the Commission may file a | ||||||
7 | lawsuit in the circuit court of Cook County to enforce the | ||||||
8 | terms of the sale or lease. If a reverter of title to any | ||||||
9 | property is ordered by the court under the terms of this Act, | ||||||
10 | the interest of the Commission shall be subject to any then | ||||||
11 | existing valid mortgage or trust deed in the nature of a | ||||||
12 | mortgage, but if the title is acquired through foreclosure of | ||||||
13 | that mortgage or trust deed or by deed in lieu of foreclosure | ||||||
14 | of that mortgage or trust deed, then the title to the property | ||||||
15 | shall not revert, but shall be subject to the restrictions as | ||||||
16 | to use, but not any penalty for nonuse, contained in this Act | ||||||
17 | with respect to any mortgagee in possession or its successor or | ||||||
18 | assigns. | ||||||
19 | The Commission may not sell, convey, transfer, or lease any | ||||||
20 | property pursuant to this Section before a comprehensive master | ||||||
21 | plan has been approved under Section 60. | ||||||
22 | Section 40. Notice. Before holding any public hearing | ||||||
23 | prescribed in Section 35 of this Act, or any meeting regarding | ||||||
24 | the passage of any resolution to file a lawsuit, the Commission | ||||||
25 | shall give notice to the grantee or lessee, or his or her legal |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | representatives, successors, or assigns, of the time and place | ||||||
2 | of the proceeding. The notice shall be accompanied by a | ||||||
3 | statement signed by the secretary of the Commission, or by any | ||||||
4 | person authorized by the Commission to sign the same, setting | ||||||
5 | forth any act or things done or omitted to be done in | ||||||
6 | violation, or claimed to be in violation, of any restriction as | ||||||
7 | to the use of the property, whether the restriction is | ||||||
8 | prescribed in any of the terms of this Act or by any | ||||||
9 | restriction as to the use of the property determined by the | ||||||
10 | Commission under the terms of this Act. The notice of the time | ||||||
11 | and place fixed for the proceeding shall also be given to any | ||||||
12 | person or persons as the Commission shall deem necessary. The | ||||||
13 | notice may be given by registered mail, addressed to the | ||||||
14 | grantee, lessee, or legal representatives, successors, or | ||||||
15 | assigns, at the last known address of the grantee, lessee, or | ||||||
16 | legal representatives, successors, or assigns. | ||||||
17 | Section 45. Rules. The Commission may adopt reasonable and | ||||||
18 | proper rules, in accordance with the Illinois Administrative | ||||||
19 | Procedure Act, relative to the exercise of its powers, and | ||||||
20 | proper rules to govern its proceedings, to regulate the mode | ||||||
21 | and manner of all hearings held by it or at its direction, and | ||||||
22 | to alter and amend those rules. | ||||||
23 | Section 50. Official documents. Copies of all official | ||||||
24 | documents, findings, and orders of the Commission, certified by |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | a commissioner or by the secretary of the Commission to be true | ||||||
2 | copies of the originals, under the official seal of the | ||||||
3 | Commission, shall be evidence in like manner as the originals. | ||||||
4 | Section 55. Judicial review. Any party may obtain a | ||||||
5 | judicial review of a final order or decision of the Commission | ||||||
6 | in the circuit court of Cook County only under and in | ||||||
7 | accordance with the provisions of the Administrative Review Law | ||||||
8 | and the rules adopted under that Law. The circuit court shall | ||||||
9 | take judicial notice of all the rules of practice and procedure | ||||||
10 | of the Commission. | ||||||
11 | Section 60. Master plan; improvement and management of | ||||||
12 | District. The Commission shall prepare and approve a | ||||||
13 | comprehensive master plan for the orderly development and | ||||||
14 | management of all property within the District. The master | ||||||
15 | plan, and any amendment to the master plan, shall not take | ||||||
16 | effect, however, until it has been approved by the Board of the | ||||||
17 | Roseland Community Medical District. The Commission shall take | ||||||
18 | the actions permitted to be taken by it under this Act as it | ||||||
19 | may determine are appropriate to provide conditions most | ||||||
20 | favorable for the special care and treatment of the sick and | ||||||
21 | injured, for the study of disease, and for any other purpose | ||||||
22 | set forth in Section 25 of this Act. In the master plan, the | ||||||
23 | Commission may provide for shared services and facilities | ||||||
24 | within the District for the accredited schools of medicine and |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | the licensed non-profit acute care hospitals within the | ||||||
2 | District. | ||||||
3 | Section 65. Public hearing. The Commission shall conduct a | ||||||
4 | public hearing prior to either acquiring through eminent domain | ||||||
5 | under Section 20 of this Act real or personal property within | ||||||
6 | the District or approving under Section 60 of this Act a | ||||||
7 | comprehensive master plan. The Commission shall also conduct a | ||||||
8 | public hearing whenever it is otherwise required by law to do | ||||||
9 | so, and may conduct a public hearing whenever it may elect to | ||||||
10 | do so. | ||||||
11 | The Commission shall conduct the public hearing called by | ||||||
12 | it in accordance with the requirements of the law mandating it, | ||||||
13 | if any, or in accordance with the provisions of this Section if | ||||||
14 | either the law mandating it is silent as to the procedures for | ||||||
15 | its holding or if the Commission elects to hold a public | ||||||
16 | hearing in the absence of any law mandating it. | ||||||
17 | In the absence of any law, or of any procedures in any law, | ||||||
18 | mandating the holding of a public hearing, the Commission may | ||||||
19 | authorize a commissioner or other person of legal age to | ||||||
20 | conduct a hearing. The commissioner or other authorized person | ||||||
