To the
Honorable Members of the Illinois Senate,
96th
General Assembly:
Today I return Senate Bill 1920
with specific recommendations for change. I thank the sponsors for their hard
work on this bill. During these troubling economic times, it is important that
we find ways to make sure that affordable housing is available to all
Illinoisans, and that the State search for ways to ensure that people have the
opportunity to remain in their homes. However, as a result of our unprecedented
fiscal crisis, it will be difficult for the Department of Public Health to
properly administer the duties and perform the tasks outlined in Senate Bill
1920.
Therefore,
pursuant to Article IV, Section 9(e) of the Illinois Constitution of 1970, I
hereby return Senate Bill 1920, entitled AN ACT concerning civil law., with
the following specific recommendations for change:
on page 1,
line 13, by replacing Department of Public Health with Commission
on Government Forecasting and Accountability; and
on page 2,
line 1 by replacing appointment; with appointment; and; and
on page 2, by
replacing line 2 through line 13 with (4) five members, appointed by the
Governor after considering recommendations from organizations primarily
representing the interests of park owners, mobile and manufactured home
retailers, and mobile and manufactured home owners.; and
on page 3,
line 13, by replacing General Assembly with Governor and the
General Assembly; and
on page 3,
line 14, by replacing January with March; and
on page 3,
line 15, by replacing March with May.
With these changes, Senate Bill
1920 will have my approval. I respectfully request your concurrence.
Sincerely,
PAT QUINN
Governor
