Summary
Amends the Counties Code. Provides that a county with 2 or more adjoining fire protection jurisdictions, or 2 or more adjoining law enforcement jurisdictions (municipal police departments and township enforcement offices), lying wholly within the county's borders may consolidate the adjoining fire protection jurisdictions or the law enforcement jurisdictions by (i) adoption of a resolution by the county board or (ii) filing a petition (subject to the petition requirements of Section 28-3 of the Election Code) with the county board signed by at least 10% of the registered voters of each fire protection or law enforcement jurisdiction. Provides for filing, form, and notice requirements for petitions, resolutions, and referendum. Provides that if a consolidation referendum passes, the fire protection or law enforcement jurisdictions will continue to function as separate entities until a Board of Fire or Police Commissioners are appointed by the county board with the consent of all municipal and township boards. Once the Board of Fire or Police Commissioners is appointed, provides that the new consolidated fire protection or law enforcement jurisdiction shall have all the powers, rights, duties and obligations of the fire protection or law enforcement jurisdictions from which it was consolidated.
