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.

Sec. 3-14.23. School bus driver permits.
(a) To conduct courses
of instruction for school bus drivers pursuant to the standards
established by the Secretary of State under Section 6-106.1 of the
Illinois Vehicle Code and to charge a fee based upon the cost of
providing such courses of up to $6 per person for fiscal years 2010, 2011, and 2012; up to $8 per person for fiscal years 2013, 2014, and 2015; and up to $10 per person for fiscal year 2016 and each fiscal year thereafter for the initial

(b) To conduct such investigations
as may be necessary to insure that all persons hired to operate school buses
have valid school bus driver permits as required under Sections 6-104 and
6-106.1 of the Illinois Vehicle Code. If a regional superintendent finds
evidence of non-compliance with this requirement, he shall submit such
evidence together with his recommendations in writing to the school board.
If the regional superintendent finds evidence of noncompliance with the
requirement that all persons employed directly by the school board to operate
school buses have valid school bus driver permits as required under Sections
6-104 and 6-106.1 of the Illinois Vehicle Code, the regional superintendent
shall schedule a hearing on a date not less than 5 days nor more than 10
days after notifying the district of his findings. If based on the
evidence presented at the hearing the regional superintendent finds that
persons employed directly by the school board to operate school buses do not
have
valid school bus driver permits as required under Sections 6-104 and 6-106.1
of the Illinois Vehicle Code, the regional superintendent shall submit
such evidence and his findings together with his recommendations to the
State Superintendent of Education. The State Superintendent of Education
may reduce the district's claim for reimbursement under Sections
29-5 and 14-13.01 for transportation by 1.136% for each day of
noncompliance.
If a school board finds evidence of noncompliance with the requirement
that all persons employed by a contractor to operate school buses have valid
school bus driver permits as required under Sections 6-104 and 6-106.1 of the
Illinois Vehicle Code, the school board shall request a hearing before
the regional superintendent. The regional superintendent shall schedule
a hearing on a date not less than 5 days nor more than 10 days after receiving
the request. If based on the evidence presented at the hearing the regional
superintendent finds that persons employed by a contractor to operate school
buses do not have valid school bus driver permits as required under Sections
6-104 and 6-106.1 of the Illinois Vehicle Code, the school board's financial
obligations under the contract shall be reduced by an amount equal to
1.136% for
each day of noncompliance. The findings of the regional superintendent and
the relief provided herein shall not impair the obligations of the contractor
to continue to provide transportation services in accordance with the terms
of the contract.
The provisions of the Administrative Review Law, and all amendments and
modifications thereof and the rules adopted pursuant thereto shall apply
to and govern all proceedings instituted for judicial review of final
administrative decisions of the regional superintendent under this Section.
