    Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
represented in the General Assembly:
 
    Section 5. The Criminal Code of 1961 is amended by changing
Section 21-7 as follows:
 
    (720 ILCS 5/21-7)  (from Ch. 38, par. 21-7)
    Sec. 21-7. Criminal trespass to Restricted areas and
restricted Landing areas at airports.) Whoever enters upon, or
remains in, any restricted area or restricted landing area used
in connection with an airport facility, or part thereof, in
this State, after such person has received notice from the
airport authority that such entry is forbidden commits a Class
4 felony A misdemeanor. Whoever enters upon, or remains in, any
restricted area or restricted landing area used in connection
with an airport facility, or part thereof, in this State, while
in possession of a weapon, replica of a weapon, or ammunition,
after the person has received notice from the airport authority
that the entry is forbidden commits a Class 3 felony. Notice
that the area is "restricted" and entry thereto "forbidden",
for purposes of this Section, means that the person or persons
have been notified personally, either orally or in writing, or
by a printed or written notice forbidding such entry to him or
a group or an organization of which he is a member, which has
been conspicuously posted or exhibited at every usable entrance
to such area or the forbidden part thereof.
    The terms "Restricted area" or "Restricted landing area" in
this Section are defined to incorporate the meaning ascribed to
those terms in Section 8 of the "Illinois Aeronautics Act",
approved July 24, 1945, as amended, and also include any other
area of the airport that has been designated such by the
airport authority.
