1 AN ACT concerning county officers.
2 Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
3 represented in the General Assembly:
4 Section 5. The Property Tax Code is amended by changing
5 Section 6-30 as follows:
6 (35 ILCS 200/6-30)
7 Sec. 6-30. Board of review in commission counties. In
8 counties not under township organization with less than
9 3,000,000 inhabitants in which no board of review is elected
10 under Section 6-35, the board of county commissioners shall
11 constitute the board of review. They shall have all the
12 powers and perform all the duties conferred on or required by
13 boards of review. County commissioners shall receive no
14 additional compensation for serving on the board of review.
15 County commissioners serving as the board of review must meet
16 the examination requirements of Section 6-32. If any member
17 of the board of county commissioners fails to meet the
18 examination requirements, the board of county commissioners
19 shall appoint a board of review. Members of the county
20 commissioners who meet the requirements of Section 6-32 may
21 serve on the appointed board of review, but shall not receive
22 additional compensation.
23 The board of county commissioners shall appoint a
24 3-member board of review if (i) the board of county
25 commissioners so chooses or (ii) any member of the board of
26 county commissioners fails to meet the examination
27 requirements of Section 6-32. No person may serve on an
28 appointed board of review under this Section unless he or she
29 meets the examination requirements of Section 6-32. Members
30 of a board of review appointed by the board of county
31 commissioners shall receive a per diem for their services as
-2- LRB9113080MWpr
1 established by the board of county commissioners.
2 A board of review appointed by the board of county
3 commissioners shall serve at the pleasure of the board of the
4 county commissioners. If the board of review is appointed
5 because any member of the board of county commissioners fails
6 to meet the examination requirements of Section 6-32 and all
7 members subsequently fulfill the requirements, the board of
8 county commissioners may terminate the authority of the
9 sitting board of review, as soon as it completes its work for
10 a tax year, and serve as the board of review.

12 Section 10. The Public Officer Prohibited Activities Act
13 is amended by changing Section 1 as follows:
14 (50 ILCS 105/1) (from Ch. 102, par. 1)
15 Sec. 1. County board. No member of a county board,
16 during the term of office for which he or she is elected, may
17 be appointed to, accept, or hold any office other than (i)
18 chairman of the county board or member of the regional
19 planning commission by appointment or election of the board
20 of which he or she is a member or (ii) alderman of a city or
21 member of the board of trustees of a village or incorporated
22 town if the city, village, or incorporated town has fewer
23 than 1,000 inhabitants and is located in a county having
24 fewer than 50,000 inhabitants, unless he or she first resigns
25 from the office of county board member or unless the holding
26 of another office is authorized by law. Any such prohibited
27 appointment or election is void. This Section shall not
28 preclude a member of the county board from being selected or
29 from serving as a member of the County Personnel Advisory
30 Board as provided in Section 12-17.2 of the Illinois Public
31 Aid Code, or as a member of a County Extension Board as
32 provided in Section 7 of the County Cooperative Extension
-3- LRB9113080MWpr
1 Law, or as a member of an Emergency Telephone System Board as
2 provided in Section 15.4 of the Emergency Telephone System
3 Act, or as appointed members of the board of review as
4 provided in Section 6-30 of the Property Tax Code. Nothing in
5 this Act shall be construed to prohibit an elected county
6 official from holding elected office in another unit of local
7 government so long as there is no contractual relationship
8 between the county and the other unit of local government.
9 This amendatory Act of 1995 is declarative of existing law
10 and is not a new enactment.
