16    duty of the clerk of the court in which adjudication  is  had
17    within  10  days  thereafter  to  forward to the Secretary of
18    State a report  of  the  adjudication  and  the  court  order
19    requiring  the  Secretary  of  State  to  suspend the minor's
20    driver's license and driving privilege for the period of time

22    the  age  of  18  years.    All  juvenile  court dispositions
23    reported to the Secretary of State under this provision shall
24    be processed by the Secretary of State as if  the  cases  had
25    been  adjudicated  in  traffic  or  criminal  court. However,
26    information reported relative  to  the  offense  of  reckless
27    homicide,  or  Section  11-501  of  this  Code,  or a similar

32        forfeiture  of any bail, security or bond given to secure
33        appearance for any offense under  this  Code  or  similar
34        offenses  under municipal ordinance, it shall be the duty
HB0287 Engrossed            -5-                LRB9002490WHmg
 1        of the clerk of the court in which such vacation was  had
 2        or  the  judge  of such court if such court has no clerk,
 3        within 10 days thereafter to forward to the Secretary  of
 4        State a report of the vacation.
 5             4.  A report of any disposition of court supervision
 6        for  a  violation  of Sections 6-303, 11-401, 11-501 or a
 7        similar provision of a local ordinance, 11-503 and 11-504
 8        shall be forwarded to the Secretary of State.
 9             5.  Reports of conviction  and  adjudications  under
10        the  Juvenile Court Act of 1987 in a computer processible
11        medium shall be forwarded to the Secretary of  State  via
12        the  Supreme Court in the form and format required by the
13        Illinois Supreme  Court  and  established  by  a  written
14        agreement  between the Supreme Court and the Secretary of
15        State.  In  counties  with  a  population  over  300,000,
16        instead of  forwarding  reports  to  the  Supreme  Court,
17        reports   of   conviction  and  adjudications  under  the
18        Juvenile Court Act of  1987  in  a  computer  processible
19        medium  may be forwarded to the Secretary of State by the
20        Circuit Court Clerk in a form and format required by  the
21        Secretary  of  State and established by written agreement
22        between the Circuit Court  Clerk  and  the  Secretary  of
23        State.   Failure  to forward the reports of conviction or
24        adjudications under the Juvenile Court  Act  of  1987  as
25        required  by  this Section shall be deemed an omission of
26        duty and it shall be the  duty  of  the  several  State's
27        Attorneys to enforce the requirements of this Section.
28        (b)  Whenever a restricted driving permit is forwarded to
29    a  court,  as  a  result  of confiscation by a police officer
30    pursuant to the authority in Section 6-113(f),  it  shall  be
31    the  duty  of the clerk, or judge, if the court has no clerk,
32    to forward such restricted driving permit and a facsimile  of
33    the   officer's   citation  to  the  Secretary  of  State  as
34    expeditiously as practicable.
HB0287 Engrossed            -6-                LRB9002490WHmg
 1        (c)  For the purposes of this Code, a forfeiture of  bail
 2    or collateral deposited to secure a defendant's appearance in
 3    court when forfeiture has not been vacated, or the failure of
 4    a defendant to appear for trial after depositing his driver's
 5    license  in  lieu  of  other  bail,  shall be equivalent to a
 6    conviction.
 7        (d)  For the purpose of providing the Secretary of  State
 8    with  records necessary to properly monitor and assess driver
 9    performance and assist the courts in the  proper  disposition
10    of repeat traffic law offenders, the clerk of the court shall
11    forward  to  the  Secretary of State, on a form prescribed by
12    the Secretary, records of driver's participation in a  driver
13    remedial   or  rehabilitative  program  which  was  required,
14    through a court order or court supervision,  in  relation  to
15    the driver's arrest for a violation of Section 11-501 of this
16    Code  or  a  similar  provision  of  a local ordinance.  Such
17    reports shall be sent  within  10  days  after  the  driver's
18    referral  to  such driver remedial or rehabilitative program.
19    Such reports, including those required to be forwarded  under
20    subsection  4  of  paragraph  (a),  shall  be recorded to the
21    driver's file, but shall  not  be  released  to  any  outside
22    source, except the affected driver, and shall be used only to
23    assist in assessing driver performance and for the purpose of
24    informing  the  courts  that  such driver has been previously
25    assigned court supervision or referred to a driver's remedial
26    or rehabilitative program.

29        Sec. 6-205.1.  Suspension of driver's licenses of certain
30    minors.  Whenever a person is adjudicated under the  Juvenile
31    Court Act of 1987 as a truant minor in need of supervision, a
32    minor   requiring  authoritative  intervention,  an  addicted
33    minor, or a delinquent minor and the court  orders  that  the

 1    minor's  driver's  license  or  privilege  to  drive  a motor
 2    vehicle be suspended for a period of time  as  determined  by
 3    the  court  but only until the minor attains 18 years of age,
 4    the Secretary of State shall suspend the  driving  privileges
 5    of  that  person  for the period of time as determined by the
 6    court but only until that person attains the age of 18 years.

 2    closing and discharge of the proceedings under Section 3-32.
 3        (4)  In addition to any other order of  disposition,  the
 4    court  may  order  any  person  found to be a minor requiring

 7    terms and conditions of Section 5-5-6 of the Unified Code  of
 8    Corrections,  except  that the "presentence hearing" referred
 9    to therein shall be the dispositional hearing for purposes of
10    this Section.  The parent, guardian  or  legal  custodian  of
11    the  minor  may  pay  some  or all of such restitution on the
12    minor's behalf.
13        (5)  Any  order  for  disposition  where  the  minor   is
14    committed  or  placed  in  accordance with Section 3-28 shall
15    provide for the parents or guardian of  the  estate  of  such
16    minor to pay to the legal custodian or guardian of the person
17    of  the minor such sums as are determined by the custodian or
18    guardian of the person of the  minor  as  necessary  for  the
19    minor's  needs.  Such  payments  may  not  exceed the maximum
20    amounts provided for by  Section  9.1  of  the  Children  and
21    Family Services Act.

23    to attend school or participate in a program of training, the
24    truant  officer or designated school official shall regularly
25    report to the court if the minor is  a  chronic  or  habitual
26    truant under Section 26-2a of the School Code.

 7    interests of the minor and the public will be served thereby;
 8    (d)  required  to  attend  an  approved alcohol or drug abuse
 9    treatment or counseling program on an inpatient or outpatient

17    under this subsection shall provide for the minor's placement
18    in a secure facility.
19        (2)  Any  order of disposition may provide for protective
20    supervision under Section 4-22 and may include  an  order  of
21    protection under Section 4-23.
22        (3)  Unless   the   order  of  disposition  expressly  so
23    provides, it does not operate to  close  proceedings  on  the
24    pending  petition, but is subject to modification until final
25    closing and discharge of the proceedings under Section 4-29.
26        (4)  In addition to any other order of  disposition,  the
27    court  may  order  any  minor found to be addicted under this

31    Unified Code of Corrections,  except  that  the  "presentence
32    hearing"  referred  to  therein  shall  be  the dispositional
33    hearing for purposes of this Section.  The  parent,  guardian
34    or  legal  custodian of the minor may pay some or all of such
HB0287 Engrossed            -11-               LRB9002490WHmg

 2        (5)  Any order for disposition where the minor is  placed
 3    in accordance with Section 4-25 shall provide for the parents
 4    or  guardian  of the estate of such minor to pay to the legal
 5    custodian or guardian of the person of the minor such sums as
 6    are determined by the custodian or guardian of the person  of
 7    the  minor  as necessary for the minor's needs. Such payments
 8    may not exceed the maximum amounts provided  for  by  Section
 9    9.1 of the Children and Family Services Act.
10        (6)  Whenever the order of disposition requires the minor
11    to attend school or participate in a program of training, the
12    truant  officer or designated school official shall regularly
13    report to the court if the minor is  a  chronic  or  habitual
14    truant under Section 26-2a of the School Code.

20        (1)  The following kinds of orders of disposition may  be
21    made in respect of wards of the court:
22             (a)  Except  as provided in Section 5-33 and Section
23        5-35, a minor found to be a delinquent under Section  5-3
24        may be:
25                  (1)  put  on probation or conditional discharge
26             and released to his  or  her  parents,  guardian  or
27             legal  custodian,  provided,  however, that any such
28             minor who is not  committed  to  the  Department  of
29             Corrections, Juvenile Division under this subsection
30             and  who  is found to be a delinquent for an offense
31             which is first degree murder, a Class X felony, or a
32             forcible felony shall be placed on probation;
33                  (2)  placed in accordance  with  Section  5-29,
HB0287 Engrossed            -12-               LRB9002490WHmg
 1             with  or  without  also  being  put  on probation or
 2             conditional discharge;
 3                  (3)  where authorized under the Alcoholism  and
 4             Other   Drug   Abuse  and  Dependency  Act,  ordered
 5             admitted for treatment for  drug  addiction  by  the
 6             Illinois  Department  of  Alcoholism  and  Substance
 7             Abuse;
 8                  (4)  committed  to  the  Department of Children
 9             and Family Services,  but  only  if  the  delinquent
10             minor is under 13 years of age;
11                  (5)  placed  in  detention  for a period not to
12             exceed 30 days, either as  the  exclusive  order  of
13             disposition  or,  where  appropriate, in conjunction
14             with any other order  of  disposition  issued  under
15             this  paragraph,  provided  that  any such detention
16             shall be in a juvenile detention home and the  minor
17             so  detained  shall  be  10  years  of age or older.
18             However, the 30-day limitation may  be  extended  by
19             further  order of the court for a minor under age 13
20             committed to the Department of Children  and  Family
21             Services  if  the  court  finds  that the minor is a
22             danger to himself or others.   The  minor  shall  be
23             given credit on the dispositional order of detention
24             for  time spent in detention under Sections 5-10(2),
25             5-14(b)(2), 5-23(1)(b), or 5-25(2) of this Act as  a
26             result  of  the  offense for which the dispositional
27             order was imposed.  The court may grant credit on  a
28             dispositional  order  of  detention  entered under a
29             violation of probation or violation  of  conditional
30             discharge  under  Section  5-25 of this Act for time
31             spent in detention before the filing of the petition
32             alleging  the  violation.   A  minor  shall  not  be
33             deprived of  credit  for  time  spent  in  detention
34             before  the  filing  of  a violation of probation or
HB0287 Engrossed            -13-               LRB9002490WHmg
 1             conditional discharge alleging the same  or  related
 2             act(s); or
 3                  (6)  ordered     partially     or    completely
 4             emancipated in accordance with the provisions of the
 5             Emancipation of Mature Minors Act; or.
 6                  (7)  subject to  having  his  or  her  driver's
 7             license  or driving privilege suspended for a period
 8             of time as determined by the court but only until he
 9             or she attains 18 years of age.
10             (b)  A minor found to be delinquent may be committed
11        to the  Department  of  Corrections,  Juvenile  Division,
12        under  Section  5-33  if  the minor is 13 years of age or
13        older, provided that the commitment to the Department  of
14        Corrections,  Juvenile  Division, shall be made only if a
15        term of incarceration is  permitted  by  law  for  adults
16        found  guilty  of  the  offense  for  which the minor was
17        adjudicated delinquent.  The time during which a minor is
18        in custody before being released upon the  request  of  a
19        parent, guardian or custodian shall be considered as time
20        spent in detention.
21        (1.1)  When  a  minor  is  found  to be delinquent for an
22    offense which is  a  violation  of  the  Illinois  Controlled
23    Substances Act or the Cannabis Control Act and made a ward of
24    the  court, the court may enter a disposition order requiring
25    the minor to undergo assessment, counseling or treatment in a
26    substance  abuse  program  approved  by  the  Department   of
27    Alcoholism and Substance Abuse.
28        (2)  Any  order  of  disposition other than commitment to
29    the Department of Corrections, Juvenile Division, may provide
30    for protective supervision under Section 5-26 and may include
31    an order of protection under Section 5-27.
32        (3)  Unless  the  order  of  disposition   expressly   so
33    provides,  it  does  not  operate to close proceedings on the
34    pending petition, but is subject to modification until  final
HB0287 Engrossed            -14-               LRB9002490WHmg
 1    closing and discharge of the proceedings under Section 5-34.
 2        (4)  In  addition  to any other order of disposition, the
 3    court may order any minor found  to  be  delinquent  to  make
 4    restitution,  in  monetary  or  non-monetary  form, under the
 5    terms and conditions of Section 5-5-6 of the Unified Code  of
 6    Corrections,  except  that the "presentence hearing" referred
 7    to therein shall be the dispositional hearing for purposes of
 8    this Section. The parent, guardian or legal custodian of  the
 9    minor  may  be ordered by the court to pay some or all of the
10    restitution on the minor's behalf, pursuant to  the  Parental
11    Responsibility Law, as now or hereafter amended.  The State's
12    Attorney  is  authorized  to  act  on behalf of any victim in
13    seeking restitution in proceedings under this Section, up  to
14    the  maximum  amount  allowed  in  Section  5 of the Parental
15    Responsibility Law.
16        (5)  Any  order  for  disposition  where  the  minor   is
17    committed  or  placed  in  accordance with Section 5-29 shall
18    provide for the parents or guardian of  the  estate  of  such
19    minor to pay to the legal custodian or guardian of the person
20    of  the minor such sums as are determined by the custodian or
21    guardian of the person of the  minor  as  necessary  for  the
22    minor's  needs.  Such  payments  may  not  exceed the maximum
23    amounts provided for by  Section  9.1  of  the  Children  and
24    Family Services Act.
25        (6)  Whenever the order of disposition requires the minor
26    to attend school or participate in a program of training, the
27    truant  officer or designated school official shall regularly
28    report to the court if the minor is  a  chronic  or  habitual
29    truant under Section 26-2a of the School Code.
30        (7)  In  no  event  shall a delinquent minor be committed
31    for a period of time in excess of that period  for  which  an
32    adult could be committed for the same act.
33        (8)  A  minor  found  to  be  delinquent for reasons that
34    include a violation of Section 21-1.3 of the Criminal Code of
HB0287 Engrossed            -15-               LRB9002490WHmg
 1    1961 shall be ordered to perform community  service  for  not
 2    less  than  30  and  not  more  than  120 hours, if community
 3    service is available  in  the  jurisdiction.   The  community
 4    service  shall  include,  but  need  not  be  limited to, the
 5    cleanup and repair of the  damage  that  was  caused  by  the
 6    violation  or  similar  damage  to  property  located  in the
 7    municipality or county in which the violation occurred.   The
 8    order  may  be  in  addition to any other order authorized by
 9    this Section.
10        (9)  In addition to any other order of  disposition,  the
11    court shall order any minor found to be delinquent for an act
12    which  would  constitute  criminal sexual assault, aggravated
13    criminal sexual abuse, or criminal sexual abuse if  committed
14    by  an  adult to undergo medical testing to determine whether
15    the  defendant  has  any   sexually   transmissible   disease
16    including  a  test  for infection with human immunodeficiency
17    virus (HIV) or  any  other  identified  causative  agency  of
18    acquired  immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS).  Any medical test
19    shall be performed only  by  appropriately  licensed  medical
20    practitioners  and  may  include  an  analysis  of any bodily
21    fluids as well as  an  examination  of  the  minor's  person.
22    Except  as otherwise provided by law, the results of the test
23    shall be kept strictly confidential by all medical  personnel
24    involved in the testing and must be personally delivered in a
25    sealed  envelope  to  the  judge  of  the  court in which the
26    disposition order was entered for the judge's  inspection  in
27    camera.   Acting in accordance with the best interests of the
28    victim and the public, the judge shall have the discretion to
29    determine to whom the results of the testing may be revealed.
30    The court shall notify the minor of the results of  the  test
31    for  infection  with  the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
32    The court shall also notify the victim if  requested  by  the
33    victim,  and  if  the  victim  is  under the age of 15 and if
34    requested by the victim's  parents  or  legal  guardian,  the
HB0287 Engrossed            -16-               LRB9002490WHmg
 1    court shall notify the victim's parents or the legal guardian
 2    of  the  results  of  the  test  for infection with the human
 3    immunodeficiency  virus  (HIV).   The  court  shall   provide
 4    information on the availability of HIV testing and counseling
 5    at  Department  of Public Health facilities to all parties to
 6    whom the results of the  testing  are  revealed.   The  court
 7    shall  order  that  the cost of any test shall be paid by the
 8    county and may be taxed as costs against the minor.
 9        (10)  When a court finds a minor  to  be  delinquent  the
10    court  shall, before making a disposition under this Section,
11    make a finding whether the offense committed either: (i)  was
12    related to or in furtherance of the criminal activities of an
13    organized  gang or was motivated by the minor's membership in
14    or allegiance to  an  organized  gang,  or  (ii)  involved  a
15    violation of paragraph (13) of subsection (a) of the Criminal
16    Code of 1961, a violation of any Section of Article 24 of the
17    Criminal  Code  of  1961,  or a violation of any statute that
18    involved the  wrongful  use  of  a  firearm.   If  the  court
19    determines  the  question  in  the affirmative, and the court
20    does not commit the minor to the Department  of  Corrections,
21    Juvenile Division, the court shall order the minor to perform
22    community  service  for  not less than 30 hours nor more than
23    120 hours, provided that community service  is  available  in
24    the  jurisdiction  and  is  funded and approved by the county
25    board of the county where the  offense  was  committed.   The
26    community  service shall include, but need not be limited to,
27    the cleanup and repair of any damage caused by a violation of
28    Section 21-1.3 of the  Criminal  Code  of  1961  and  similar
29    damage  to  property located in the municipality or county in
30    which the violation occurred.  When possible and  reasonable,
31    the  community  service  shall  be  performed  in the minor's
32    neighborhood.  This order shall be in addition to  any  other
33    order authorized by this Section except for an order to place
34    the  minor  in  the custody of the Department of Corrections,

18             minor who is not  committed  to  the  Department  of
19             Corrections, Juvenile Division under this subsection
20             and  who  is found to be a delinquent for an offense
21             which is first degree murder, a Class X felony, or a
22             forcible felony shall be placed on probation;
23                  (2)  placed in accordance  with  Section  5-29,
24             with  or  without  also  being  put  on probation or
25             conditional discharge;
26                  (3)  where authorized under the Alcoholism  and
27             Other   Drug   Abuse  and  Dependency  Act,  ordered

30                  (4)  committed  to  the  Department of Children
31             and Family Services,  but  only  if  the  delinquent
32             minor is under 13 years of age;
33                  (5)  placed  in  detention  for a period not to

 4             shall be in a juvenile detention home and the  minor
 5             so  detained  shall  be  10  years  of age or older.
 6             However, the 30-day limitation may  be  extended  by
 7             further  order of the court for a minor under age 13
 8             committed to the Department of Children  and  Family
 9             Services  if  the  court  finds  that the minor is a
10             danger to himself or others.   The  minor  shall  be
11             given credit on the dispositional order of detention
12             for  time spent in detention under Sections 5-10(2),
13             5-14(b)(2), 5-23(1)(b), or 5-25(2) of this Act as  a
14             result  of  the  offense for which the dispositional
15             order was imposed.  The court may grant credit on  a
16             dispositional  order  of  detention  entered under a
17             violation of probation or violation  of  conditional
18             discharge  under  Section  5-25 of this Act for time
19             spent in detention before the filing of the petition
20             alleging  the  violation.   A  minor  shall  not  be
21             deprived of  credit  for  time  spent  in  detention
22             before  the  filing  of  a violation of probation or
23             conditional discharge alleging the same  or  related
24             act(s); or
25                  (6)  ordered     partially     or    completely
26             emancipated in accordance with the provisions of the
27             Emancipation of Mature Minors Act; or.
28                  (7)  subject to  having  his  or  her  driver's
29             license  or driving privilege suspended for a period
30             of time as determined by the court but only until he
31             or she attains 18 years of age.
32             (b)  A minor found to be delinquent may be committed
33        to the  Department  of  Corrections,  Juvenile  Division,
34        under  Section  5-33  if  the minor is 13 years of age or
HB0287 Engrossed            -19-               LRB9002490WHmg
 1        older, provided that the commitment to the Department  of
 2        Corrections,  Juvenile  Division, shall be made only if a
 3        term of incarceration is  permitted  by  law  for  adults
 4        found  guilty  of  the  offense  for  which the minor was
 5        adjudicated delinquent.  The time during which a minor is
 6        in custody before being released upon the  request  of  a
 7        parent, guardian or custodian shall be considered as time
 8        spent in detention.
 9        (1.1)  When  a  minor  is  found  to be delinquent for an
10    offense which is  a  violation  of  the  Illinois  Controlled
11    Substances Act or the Cannabis Control Act and made a ward of
12    the  court, the court may enter a disposition order requiring
13    the minor to undergo assessment, counseling or treatment in a
14    substance abuse program approved by the Department  of  Human
15    Services.
16        (2)  Any  order  of  disposition other than commitment to
17    the Department of Corrections, Juvenile Division, may provide
18    for protective supervision under Section 5-26 and may include
19    an order of protection under Section 5-27.
20        (3)  Unless  the  order  of  disposition   expressly   so
21    provides,  it  does  not  operate to close proceedings on the
22    pending petition, but is subject to modification until  final
23    closing and discharge of the proceedings under Section 5-34.
24        (4)  In  addition  to any other order of disposition, the
25    court may order any minor found  to  be  delinquent  to  make
26    restitution,  in  monetary  or  non-monetary  form, under the
27    terms and conditions of Section 5-5-6 of the Unified Code  of
28    Corrections,  except  that the "presentence hearing" referred
29    to therein shall be the dispositional hearing for purposes of
30    this Section. The parent, guardian or legal custodian of  the
31    minor  may  be ordered by the court to pay some or all of the
32    restitution on the minor's behalf, pursuant to  the  Parental
33    Responsibility Law, as now or hereafter amended.  The State's
34    Attorney  is  authorized  to  act  on behalf of any victim in
HB0287 Engrossed            -20-               LRB9002490WHmg
 1    seeking restitution in proceedings under this Section, up  to
 2    the  maximum  amount  allowed  in  Section  5 of the Parental
 3    Responsibility Law.
 4        (5)  Any  order  for  disposition  where  the  minor   is
 5    committed  or  placed  in  accordance with Section 5-29 shall
 6    provide for the parents or guardian of  the  estate  of  such
 7    minor to pay to the legal custodian or guardian of the person
 8    of  the minor such sums as are determined by the custodian or
 9    guardian of the person of the  minor  as  necessary  for  the
10    minor's  needs.  Such  payments  may  not  exceed the maximum
11    amounts provided for by  Section  9.1  of  the  Children  and
12    Family Services Act.
13        (6)  Whenever the order of disposition requires the minor
14    to attend school or participate in a program of training, the
15    truant  officer or designated school official shall regularly
16    report to the court if the minor is  a  chronic  or  habitual
17    truant under Section 26-2a of the School Code.
18        (7)  In  no  event  shall a delinquent minor be committed
19    for a period of time in excess of that period  for  which  an
20    adult could be committed for the same act.
21        (8)  A  minor  found  to  be  delinquent for reasons that
22    include a violation of Section 21-1.3 of the Criminal Code of
23    1961 shall be ordered to perform community  service  for  not
24    less  than  30  and  not  more  than  120 hours, if community
25    service is available  in  the  jurisdiction.   The  community
26    service  shall  include,  but  need  not  be  limited to, the
27    cleanup and repair of the  damage  that  was  caused  by  the
28    violation  or  similar  damage  to  property  located  in the
29    municipality or county in which the violation occurred.   The
30    order  may  be  in  addition to any other order authorized by
31    this Section.
32        (9)  In addition to any other order of  disposition,  the
33    court shall order any minor found to be delinquent for an act
34    which  would  constitute  criminal sexual assault, aggravated
HB0287 Engrossed            -21-               LRB9002490WHmg
 1    criminal sexual abuse, or criminal sexual abuse if  committed
 2    by  an  adult to undergo medical testing to determine whether
 3    the  defendant  has  any   sexually   transmissible   disease
 4    including  a  test  for infection with human immunodeficiency
 5    virus (HIV) or  any  other  identified  causative  agency  of
 6    acquired  immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS).  Any medical test
 7    shall be performed only  by  appropriately  licensed  medical
 8    practitioners  and  may  include  an  analysis  of any bodily
 9    fluids as well as  an  examination  of  the  minor's  person.
10    Except  as otherwise provided by law, the results of the test
11    shall be kept strictly confidential by all medical  personnel
12    involved in the testing and must be personally delivered in a
13    sealed  envelope  to  the  judge  of  the  court in which the
14    disposition order was entered for the judge's  inspection  in
15    camera.   Acting in accordance with the best interests of the
16    victim and the public, the judge shall have the discretion to
17    determine to whom the results of the testing may be revealed.
18    The court shall notify the minor of the results of  the  test
19    for  infection  with  the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
20    The court shall also notify the victim if  requested  by  the
21    victim,  and  if  the  victim  is  under the age of 15 and if
22    requested by the victim's  parents  or  legal  guardian,  the
23    court shall notify the victim's parents or the legal guardian
24    of  the  results  of  the  test  for infection with the human
25    immunodeficiency  virus  (HIV).   The  court  shall   provide
26    information on the availability of HIV testing and counseling
27    at  Department  of Public Health facilities to all parties to
28    whom the results of the  testing  are  revealed.   The  court
29    shall  order  that  the cost of any test shall be paid by the
30    county and may be taxed as costs against the minor.
31        (10)  When a court finds a minor  to  be  delinquent  the
32    court  shall, before making a disposition under this Section,
33    make a finding whether the offense committed either: (i)  was
34    related to or in furtherance of the criminal activities of an
HB0287 Engrossed            -22-               LRB9002490WHmg
 1    organized  gang or was motivated by the minor's membership in
 2    or allegiance to  an  organized  gang,  or  (ii)  involved  a
 3    violation of paragraph (13) of subsection (a) of the Criminal
 4    Code of 1961, a violation of any Section of Article 24 of the
 5    Criminal  Code  of  1961,  or a violation of any statute that
 6    involved the  wrongful  use  of  a  firearm.   If  the  court
 7    determines  the  question  in  the affirmative, and the court
 8    does not commit the minor to the Department  of  Corrections,
 9    Juvenile Division, the court shall order the minor to perform
10    community  service  for  not less than 30 hours nor more than
11    120 hours, provided that community service  is  available  in
12    the  jurisdiction  and  is  funded and approved by the county
13    board of the county where the  offense  was  committed.   The
14    community  service shall include, but need not be limited to,
15    the cleanup and repair of any damage caused by a violation of
16    Section 21-1.3 of the  Criminal  Code  of  1961  and  similar
17    damage  to  property located in the municipality or county in
18    which the violation occurred.  When possible and  reasonable,
19    the  community  service  shall  be  performed  in the minor's
20    neighborhood.  This order shall be in addition to  any  other
21    order authorized by this Section except for an order to place
22    the  minor  in  the custody of the Department of Corrections,
23    Juvenile  Division.   For  the  purposes  of  this   Section,
24    "organized gang" has the meaning ascribed to it in Section 10
25    of the Illinois Streetgang Terrorism Omnibus Prevention Act.
