Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Illinois Municipal Code. Provides that any unincorporated territory containing 60 acres or less may be annexed by any municipality by which it is bounded if it is wholly bounded by one or more municipalities in a county with a population of more than 800,000 inhabitants and less than 2,000,000 inhabitants and either (i) a utility right-of-way that is at least 100 feet wide or (ii) a railroad or operating property, as defined in the Property Tax Code, being immediately adjacent to, but exclusive of the property. Provides that railroad property shall not be subject to the zoning or jurisdiction of the municipality annexing the territory, nor shall the utility property be included for purposes of calculating the territory annexed. Provides that lands used primarily for agricultural purposes or to produce agricultural goods may not be annexed under certain provisions of the Section. Effective immediately.

House Committee Amendment No. 1
Deletes a provision that allows a municipality to annex unincorporated territory that is bounded by certain municipalities and a utility right-of-way. Provides that land or property that is used for agricultural purposes (instead of "used primarily for agricultural purposes") may not be annexed under certain subsections. Provides that notice shall be given to impacted land owners.
