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.
(220 ILCS 5/9-227) (from Ch. 111 2/3, par. 9-227)
Sec. 9-227.
It shall be proper for the Commission to consider as an
operating expense, for the purpose of determining whether a rate or other
charge or classification is sufficient, donations made by a public utility
for the public welfare or for charitable scientific, religious or
educational purposes, provided that such donations are reasonable in amount.
In determining the reasonableness of such donations, the Commission may
not establish, by rule, a presumption that any particular portion of an
otherwise reasonable amount may not be considered as an operating expense.
The Commission shall be prohibited from disallowing by rule, as an
operating expense, any portion of a reasonable donation for public welfare
or charitable purposes.
