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.

(70 ILCS 3605/20) (from Ch. 111 2/3, par. 320)
Sec. 20.
Within sixty (60) days after the adoption of this Act by the
electors of one or more cities, villages and incorporated towns within the
metropolitan area having a population in the aggregate of at least 100,000
according to the Federal census of 1940, the Governor, by and with the
advice and consent of the Senate, shall appoint three members of the Board
for initial terms expiring September first of the years 1947, 1948 and
1949, respectively, at least one of which members shall be a resident of
that portion of the metropolitan area which is outside the corporate limits
of the City of Chicago, and the Mayor, with advice and consent of the City
Council of the City of Chicago, shall appoint four members of the Board for
initial terms expiring September first of the years 1946, 1950, 1951 and
1952, respectively. At the expiration of the term of any member appointed
by the Governor his successor shall be appointed by the Governor, and at
the expiration of the term of any member appointed by the Mayor his
successor shall be appointed by the Mayor in like manner, and with like
regard as to the place of residence of the appointee, as appointments for
the initial terms. All successors shall hold office for the term of seven
years from the first day of September of the year in which they are
appointed, except in case of an appointment to fill a vacancy. In case of
vacancy in the office of any member appointed by the Governor during the
recess of the Senate, the Governor shall make a temporary appointment until
the next meeting of the Senate when he shall nominate some person to fill
such office; and any person so nominated, who is confirmed by the Senate,
shall hold his office during the remainder of the term and until his
successor shall be appointed and qualified. If the Senate is not in session
at the time this Act takes effect, the Governor shall make temporary
appointments as in case of vacancies. Each appointment by the Governor
shall be subject to approval by the Mayor, and each appointment by the
Mayor shall be subject to approval by the Governor and, when so approved,
the Governor and the Mayor shall certify their respective appointments and
approvals to the Secretary of State. If the Governor or the Mayor does not
approve or disapprove the appointment by the Mayor or the Governor, respectively,
within 15 days after receipt thereof, the person is appointed. Within thirty
days after certification
and approval of his appointment, and before entering upon the duties of his
office, each member of the Board shall take and subscribe the
constitutional oath of office and file it in the office of the Secretary of
State.
