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.

(310 ILCS 10/4) (from Ch. 67 1/2, par. 4)

Sec. 4.

Whenever it shall appear to the presiding officer having appointment
authority that a commissioner of a Housing Authority
is incompetent or guilty of
neglect of duty or malfeasance, the presiding officer
shall require such commissioner to appear before the presiding officer
or his designee to show
cause why he should not be removed from office.  At least fifteen days'
written notice of such a hearing shall be given to the commissioner
whose conduct is in question and to all other members of the Authority.
At the hearing the commissioner may be represented by counsel and may
appear personally and present such pertinent evidence as he wishes or as
the presiding officer or his designee may request.

If after a hearing the presiding officer
determines that a commissioner has been incompetent or has been guilty
of neglect of duty or malfeasance, he shall remove such commissioner
from the Authority within seven days, and there shall thereupon be
deemed to be a vacancy of such office.
