(65 ILCS 5/11-12-6) (from Ch. 24, par. 11-12-6)
Sec. 11-12-6.
An official comprehensive plan, or any amendment thereof, or
addition thereto, proposed by a plan commission shall be effective in the
municipality and contiguous area herein prescribed only after its formal
adoption by the corporate authorities. Such plan shall be advisory and in
and of itself shall not be construed to regulate or control the use of
private property in any way, except as to such part thereof as has been
implemented by ordinances duly enacted by the corporate authorities. At any
time or times, before or after the adoption of the official comprehensive
plan by the corporate authorities, such corporate authorities may designate
by ordinance an official map, which map may consist of the whole area
included within the official comprehensive plan or one or more separate
geographical or functional parts, and may include all or any part of the
contiguous unincorporated area within one and one-half miles from the
corporate limits of the municipality. Such map or maps shall be made a part
of the ordinance, which ordinance shall specifically state standard
requirements of the municipality relating to size of streets, alleys,
public ways, parks, playgrounds, school sites, other public grounds, and
ways for public service facilities; the kind and quantity of materials
which shall be used in the construction of streets, and alleys; and the
kind and quality of materials for public service facilities as may be
consistent with Illinois Commerce Commission or industry standards, and
shall contain the standards required for drainage and sanitary sewers and
collection and treatment of sewage. The map shall be drawn to scale, shall
be reasonably accurate, and shall show north point, section lines and
numbers, and streams.
Said official comprehensive plan and the ordinance or ordinances
including the official map shall be placed on file with the Municipal Clerk
and shall be available at all times during business hours for public
inspection. Copies of said plan, all ordinances implementing the same and
including the official map, shall be made available to all interested
parties upon payment of such sum as the corporate authorities shall
determine to be adequate to reimburse the general fund of the municipality
for the cost of printing and distributing the same.
