Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS)
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.
(55 ILCS 5/5-1190) Sec. 5-1190. Access to and use of county infrastructure for broadband. A county may lease, license, or otherwise grant access to and use of infrastructure, including fiber optic cables, that the county owns or controls to public or private entities to facilitate the delivery of broadband services on the condition that the lease, license, access, or use: (1) be granted on a nondiscriminatory, nonexclusive, and competitively neutral basis; and (2) comply with all other State and federal laws, rules, and regulations, including, but not limited to, all applicable safety codes and requirements. However, nothing in this Section shall be construed to authorize a county to lease, license, or otherwise grant access to or use of infrastructure that the county does not own or control to public or private entities to facilitate the delivery of broadband services. This Section applies to leases, licenses, or other agreements entered into, amended, or renewed on or after January 1, 2025 (the effective date of Public Act 103-947).(Source: P.A. 103-947, eff. 1-1-25; 104-417, eff. 8-15-25.) |
