(65 ILCS 5/10-2.1-5) (from Ch. 24, par. 10-2.1-5)
Sec. 10-2.1-5.
Rules-publications.
The board shall make rules (1) to carry out the purpose of this Division
2.1, and (2) for appointments and removals in accordance with the
provisions of this Division 2.1. The board, from time to time, may make
changes in these rules.
All these rules and changes therein shall be printed immediately for
distribution. The board shall give notice (1) of the places where the
printed rules may be obtained, and (2) of the date, not less than 10 days
subsequent to the time of publication, when the rules or changes therein
shall go into operation. This notice shall be published in one or more
newspapers published in the municipality, or, if no newspaper is published
therein, then in one or more newspapers with a general circulation within
the municipality.
These rules of the board shall apply only to the conduct of examinations
for original appointments, for promotions, and to the conduct of hearings
on charges brought against a member of the police or fire department. No
such rule shall be made by the board to govern the operation of the police
or fire department or the conduct of its members unless the governing body
of the municipality specifically authorizes the board of fire and police
commissioners to make such rules; however, the governing body may also
rescind such authorization. The Board may, however, provide rules for the
appointment of persons at least 16 years of age to part-time positions
within the cadet training program of the fire department of the
municipality, provided such training program is conducted in conjunction
with the Diversified Occupational Program of the local High School District
and with the Illinois State Vocational Education System.
This amendatory Act of 1973 does not apply to any municipality which is
a home rule unit.
