| ||||||
2 | AMENDMENT NO. ______. Amend Senate Bill 2299 by replacing | ||||||
3 | everything after the enacting clause with the following:
| ||||||
4 | "Section 5. The Public Officer Prohibited Activities Act is | ||||||
5 | amended by changing Sections 2a and 4 as follows:
| ||||||
6 | (50 ILCS 105/2a) (from Ch. 102, par. 2a)
| ||||||
7 | Sec. 2a. Township officials Township supervisors and | ||||||
8 | trustees . | ||||||
9 | (a) No township
supervisor or trustee, during the term of | ||||||
10 | office for which he or
she is elected, may accept, be appointed | ||||||
11 | to, or hold any office
by the appointment of the board of | ||||||
12 | township trustees unless he or
she first resigns from the | ||||||
13 | office of supervisor or trustee or
unless the appointment is | ||||||
14 | specifically authorized by law. A
supervisor or trustee may, | ||||||
15 | however, serve as a volunteer firefighter fireman
and receive | ||||||
16 | compensation for that service. Any appointment in
violation of |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | this Section is void.
Nothing in this Act shall be construed to | ||||||
2 | prohibit an elected township
official from holding elected | ||||||
3 | office in another unit of local government as
long as there is | ||||||
4 | no contractual relationship between the township and the other
| ||||||
5 | unit of local government. This amendatory Act of 1995 is | ||||||
6 | declarative of
existing law and is not a new enactment. | ||||||
7 | (b) On and after the effective date of this amendatory Act | ||||||
8 | of the 100th General Assembly, a person elected to or appointed | ||||||
9 | to fill a vacancy in an elected township position, including, | ||||||
10 | but not limited to, a trustee, a supervisor, a highway | ||||||
11 | commissioner, a clerk, an assessor, or a collector, shall not | ||||||
12 | be employed by the township, except that a supervisor or | ||||||
13 | trustee may serve as a volunteer firefighter
and receive | ||||||
14 | compensation for that service as provided in subsection (a).
| ||||||
15 | (Source: P.A. 89-89, eff. 6-30-95.)
| ||||||

| ||||||

18 | supervisor or county
commissioner, or other person holding any | ||||||
19 | office, either by election or
appointment under the laws or | ||||||
20 | constitution of this state, who violates any
provision of the | ||||||
21 | preceding sections, is guilty of a Class 4 felony and in
| ||||||
22 | addition thereto, any office or official position held by any | ||||||
23 | person so
convicted shall become vacant, and shall be so | ||||||
24 | declared as part of the
judgment of court. This Section does | ||||||
25 | not apply to a violation of subsection (b) of Section 2a.
