(65 ILCS 5/11-12-4.1) (from Ch. 24, par. 11-12-4.1)
Sec. 11-12-4.1.
Whenever a municipality of more than 500,000
population has created a plan commission pursuant to the provisions of
this Division 12, every plan, design or other proposal by any public
body or agency which requires the acquisition or disposition of real
property within the territorial limits of the municipality by any public
body or agency, or which changes the use of any real property owned or
occupied by any public body or agency or the location of any improvement
thereon within the territorial limits of the municipality, shall be
referred to the plan commission by such public body or agency not less
than 30 days prior to any election for the purpose of authorizing the
borrowing of money for, or any action by such public body or agency to
appropriate funds for, or to authorize such changes or the acquisition
or disposition of such real property, but in no event shall such
referral be less than 30 days prior to making such changes or acquiring
or disposing of such real property. The plan commission shall review
every such plan, design or other proposal and shall within 30 days after
submission thereof report to the public body or agency having
jurisdiction over such real property or improvement thereon concerning
the conformity of the plan, design, or other proposal with the long
range planning objectives of the municipality and with the official plan
for the municipality or any part thereof if the same shall then be in
effect as provided in Section 11-12-2. Such report shall be spread of
record in the minutes or record of proceedings of such public body or
agency. A report that any such plan, design, or other proposal is not in
conformity with the long range planning objectives of the municipality,
or the official plan for the municipality shall be accompanied by a
written statement of the respects in which such conformity is lacking
but such a report shall not bar the public body or agency having
jurisdiction over such real property or improvement thereon from
thereafter making such changes or acquiring or disposing of such real
property. The failure of the plan commission to report on any such plan,
design, or other proposal within 30 days after submission of the same to
it, shall be deemed to be a report that such plan, design, or other
proposal conforms in all respects with the long range planning
objectives and the official plan of the municipality.
As used in this section the terms "public body" or "agency" include
the State of Illinois, any county, township, district including the Chicago
Park District, school,
authority, municipality, or any official, board, commission or other
political corporation or subdivision of the State of Illinois, now or
hereafter created, whether herein specifically mentioned or not.
