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 2905/3-4) (from Ch. 42, par. 503-4)

Sec. 3-4.

(a) Commissioners shall be paid the same salaries as the county board members
from either St. Clair or Madison County whichever is lower.

(b) The board of commissioners may, by ordinance, arrange to provide employees and commissioners of the sanitary district group, life, health, accident, hospital, and medical insurance, or any one or any combination of such types of insurance. The insurance may include provision for employees and commissioners who rely on treatment by prayer or spiritual means alone for healing in accordance with the tenets and practice of a well-recognized religious denomination. The board of commissioners may provide for payment by the sanitary district of the premium or charge for the insurance.

If the sanitary district does not pay for the premium or charge for  group life, health, accident, hospital, or medical insurance, the board of commissioners may allow withholding and deducting from the compensation of the employees and commissioners of the premium or charge for the group life, health, accident, hospital, or medical insurance.

Insurance obtained under this subsection must be obtained from an insurance company authorized to do business in the State of Illinois or any other organization or service offering similar coverage authorized to do business in the State of Illinois.
