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.

(625 ILCS 5/18a-200) (from Ch. 95 1/2, par. 18a-200)
Sec. 18a-200. General powers and duties of Commission. The Commission shall:
(1) Regulate commercial vehicle relocators and their employees or agents in
accordance with this Chapter and to that end may establish reasonable
requirements with respect to proper service and practices relating
thereto;
(2) Require the maintenance of uniform systems of accounts, records
and the preservation thereof;
(3) Require that all drivers and other personnel used in relocation be
employees of a licensed relocator;
(4) Regulate equipment leasing to and by relocators;
(5) Adopt reasonable and proper rules covering the exercise of
powers conferred upon it by this Chapter, and reasonable rules governing
investigations, hearings and proceedings under this Chapter;
(6) Set reasonable rates for the commercial towing or removal of trespassing
vehicles from private property. The rates shall not exceed the mean average of
the 5 highest rates for police tows within the territory to which this Chapter
applies that are performed under Sections 4-201 and 4-214 of this Code and that
are of record at hearing; provided that the Commission shall not re-calculate
the maximum specified herein if the order containing the previous calculation
was entered within one calendar year of the date on which the new order is
entered. Set reasonable rates for the storage, for periods in excess of 24
hours, of the vehicles in connection with the towing or removal; however,
no relocator shall impose charges for storage for the first 24 hours
after towing or removal. Set reasonable rates for other services provided
by relocators, provided that the rates shall not be charged to the owner or
operator of a relocated vehicle. Any fee charged by a
relocator for the use of a credit card that is used to pay for any service
rendered by the relocator shall be included in the total amount that shall
not exceed the maximum reasonable rate established by the Commission. The
Commission shall require a relocator to refund any amount charged in excess
of the reasonable rate established by the Commission, including any fee for
the use of a credit card;
(7) Investigate and maintain current files of the criminal records,
if any, of all relocators and their employees and of all applicants for
relocator's license, operator's licenses and dispatcher's licenses. If the
Commission determines that an applicant for a license issued
under this Chapter will be subjected to a criminal history records
check, the applicant shall submit his or her fingerprints to the
Illinois State Police in the form and manner prescribed by the Illinois State Police. These fingerprints shall be checked against the Illinois State Police and Federal Bureau of Investigation criminal history record
information databases now and hereafter filed. The Illinois State Police
shall charge the applicant a
fee
for conducting the criminal history records check, which shall be deposited in
the State Police Services Fund and shall not exceed the actual cost of the
records check. The Illinois State Police shall furnish pursuant to
positive
identification, records of conviction to the Commission;
(8) Issue relocator's licenses, dispatcher's employment permits, and
operator's employment permits in accordance with Article IV of this Chapter;
(9) Establish fitness standards for applicants seeking relocator
licensees and holders of relocator licenses;
(10) Upon verified complaint in writing by any
person, organization or body politic, or upon its own initiative may,
investigate whether any commercial vehicle relocator, operator, dispatcher,
or person otherwise required to comply with any provision of this Chapter
or any rule promulgated hereunder, has failed to comply with any
provision or rule;
(11) Whenever the Commission receives notice from the Secretary of State
that any domestic or foreign corporation regulated under this Chapter has
not paid a franchise tax, license fee or penalty required under the Business
Corporation Act of 1983, institute proceedings
for the revocation of the license or right to engage in any business
required under this Chapter or the suspension thereof until such time as
the delinquent franchise tax, license fee or penalty is paid.
