Illinois Compiled Statutes
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.

Sec. 11-97-1.
The corporate authorities of any municipality, whether
incorporated under the general law or a special charter, may designate by
ordinance the whole or any part of not to exceed 2 streets, roads, avenues,
boulevards, or highways, under their jurisdiction, as public driveways, to
be used for pleasure driving only, and to improve and maintain the same,
and also to lay out, establish, open, alter, widen, extend, grade, pave, or
otherwise improve and maintain not more than 2 roads, streets, or avenues,
and designate them as pleasure driveways to be used for pleasure driving
only. But these powers can only be exercised when the corporate authorities
are petitioned to do so by the owners of more than two-thirds of the
frontage of land fronting upon a proposed pleasure driveway.

Sec. 11-97-2. The corporate authorities of any municipality, whether
incorporated under the general law or a special charter, may lay out,
establish, open, alter, widen, extend, grade, pave, or otherwise improve

municipality to parks owned by the municipality outside its corporate
limits. The cost of these driveways may be paid out of any fund in the
municipal treasury, acquired under the authority of law for park purposes.
The corporate authorities may acquire the land necessary for this purpose
by purchase, legacy or gift, or in case the land cannot be so acquired,
they may acquire it by condemnation in the manner provided for the exercise
of the right of eminent domain under the Eminent Domain Act.

Sec. 11-97-4.
The corporate authorities, by ordinance, may regulate,
restrain, and control the speed of travel upon these pleasure driveways,
may prescribe the kind of vehicles that shall be allowed thereon, and in
all things may regulate, restrain, and control the use of these pleasure
driveways. The corporate authorities may exclude therefrom funeral
processions, hearses, and traffic teams and vehicles, so as to free these
pleasure driveways from all business traffic or objectionable travel and
make them pleasure driveways for pleasure driving only. They may prescribe
in that ordinance such fines or penalties for the violation thereof as they
are allowed by law to prescribe for the violation of other ordinances.
