Bill Title: Amends the Counties Code. Provides that a county may establish goals, based upon a legally defensible disparity study, for the procurement of goods and services to promote and encourage the continuing economic development of: (1) minority-owned and minority-operated businesses; (2) women-owned and women-operated businesses; (3) businesses owned and operated by persons with disabilities; and (4) businesses owned and operated by veterans of the armed forces of the United States. In the County Design-Build Authorization Division of the Code, provides that, rather than evaluating design-build proposals to see if they comply with the utilization goals for business enterprises established in the Business Enterprise for Minorities, Women, and Persons with Disabilities Act and provisions of the Illinois Human Rights Act, design-build proposals may be evaluated to determine if the proposals meet the county's contracting goals for the county's program for disadvantaged business enterprises based on the county's most recent, legally defensible disparity study.
