Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

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.

70 ILCS 1205/4-8

(70 ILCS 1205/4-8) (from Ch. 105, par. 4-8)

Sec. 4-8.

Except where the president of the district is elected by direct
vote of the electors, the board of each park district shall elect from
their number a president and all districts shall elect a vice-president,
who shall hold their respective offices for one year, or until their
successors shall be elected. The Board shall prescribe their powers and
duties not inconsistent with the provisions of this code.

The Board shall also appoint a secretary and a treasurer, prescribe
their duties, and term of office and require such bonds as the board deems
necessary. The secretary and treasurer need not be members of the board, in
which case the Board may fix their compensation; and both offices may be
held by the same person. The secretary shall have power to administer oaths
and affirmations.

The Board may appoint an assistant secretary and an assistant treasurer. If the secretary or treasurer are unable to perform the duties of their respective offices, then the assistant secretary or assistant treasurer shall perform the duties of that office, respectively, as prescribed by the Board. The assistant secretary and assistant treasurer need not be members of the Board.
