Information maintained by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

    (40 ILCS 5/16-164) (from Ch. 108 1/2, par. 16-164)
    Sec. 16-164. Board; appointed members; vacancies. Terms of office for the appointed members shall begin on July 15 of an even-numbered year, except that the terms of office for members appointed pursuant to this amendatory Act of the 96th General Assembly shall begin upon being confirmed by the Senate. The Governor shall appoint 3 members as trustees with the advice and consent of the Senate in each even-numbered year who shall hold office for a term of 4 years, except that, of the members appointed pursuant to this amendatory Act of the 96th General Assembly, 3 members shall be appointed for a term ending July 14, 2012 and 3 members shall be appointed for a term ending July 14, 2014. The Governor shall appoint the additional member authorized under this amendatory Act of the 101st General Assembly with the advice and consent of the Senate for a term beginning on July 15, 2020 and ending July 14, 2022, and successors shall hold office for a term of 4 years. Each such appointee shall reside in and be a taxpayer in the territory covered by this system, shall be interested in public school welfare, and experienced and competent in financial and business management. A vacancy in the term of an appointed trustee shall be filled for the unexpired term by appointment of the Governor.
    Notwithstanding any provision of this Section to the contrary, the term of office of each member of the Board appointed by the Governor who is sitting on the Board on the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 96th General Assembly is terminated on that effective date. A trustee sitting on the Board on the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 96th General Assembly may not hold over in office for more than 60 days after the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 96th General Assembly. Nothing in this Section shall prevent the Governor from making a temporary appointment or nominating a trustee holding office on the day before the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 96th General Assembly.
