SYNOPSIS AS INTRODUCED:
 
65 ILCS 5/1-2-1.7 new

    Amends the Illinois Municipal Code. Provides that if an ordinance that more restrictively impacts a method of doing business, more restrictively increases existing costs of doing business, limits or impairs the use of property, or imposes additional restrictions or costs to procure a permit or business license, the ordinance may not be enforced against a person unless, before its adoption, the ordinance is presented for reading at at least 2 regular meetings of the corporate authorities that are held at least 7 days apart and the affected person has actual knowledge of the proposed law or ordinance. Provides that an ordinance that imposes additional restrictions on the process of securing a permit or a business license may not take effect until 90 days after the ordinance is adopted or 60 days after the average processing time for a permit or business license in the class requested, whichever is later. In a proceeding in which compliance with the provisions is an issue, provides that the burden of proof is on the municipality to demonstrate by clear and convincing evidence that it has complied with this Section. Limits home rule powers. Effective immediately.
