| ||||||
16 | (d) Persons entitled to military preference under Section | ||||||
17 | 10-1-16

19 | policeman having no previous
employment status as a fireman or | ||||||
20 | policeman in the regularly constituted
fire or police | ||||||
21 | department of the municipality, in which case they must not

23 | served as an
auxiliary police officer under Section 3.1-30-20 | ||||||
24 | for at least 5 years and is
under 40 years of age.
| ||||||
25 | (e) All employees of a municipality of less than 500,000 | ||||||
26 | population (except
those who would be excluded from the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | classified service as provided in this
Division 1) who are | ||||||
2 | holding that employment as of the date a municipality
adopts | ||||||
3 | this Division 1, or as of July 17, 1959, whichever date is the | ||||||
4 | later,
and who have held that employment for at least 2 years | ||||||
5 | immediately before that
later date, and all firemen and | ||||||
6 | policemen regardless of length of service who
were either | ||||||
7 | appointed to their respective positions by the board of fire | ||||||
8 | and
police commissioners under the provisions of Division 2 of | ||||||
9 | this Article or who
are serving in a position (except as a | ||||||
10 | temporary employee) in the fire or

14 | municipality
without examination.
| ||||||
15 | (f) The examinations shall be practical in their | ||||||
16 | character, and shall
relate to those matters that will fairly | ||||||
17 | test the relative capacity of the
persons examined to | ||||||
18 | discharge the duties of the positions to which they
seek to be | ||||||
19 | appointed. The examinations shall include tests of physical
| ||||||
20 | qualifications, health, and (when appropriate) manual skill. | ||||||
21 | If an applicant
is unable to pass the physical examination | ||||||
22 | solely as the result of an injury
received by the applicant as | ||||||
23 | the result of the performance of an act of duty
while working | ||||||
24 | as a temporary employee in the position for which he or she is
| ||||||
25 | being examined, however, the physical examination shall be | ||||||
26 | waived and the
applicant shall be considered to have passed |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | the examination. No questions in
any examination shall relate | ||||||
2 | to political or religious opinions or
affiliations. Results of | ||||||
3 | examinations and the eligible registers prepared from
the | ||||||
4 | results shall be published by the commission within 60 days | ||||||
5 | after any
examinations are held.
| ||||||
6 | (g) The commission shall control all examinations, and | ||||||
7 | may, whenever an
examination is to take place, designate a | ||||||
8 | suitable number of persons,
either in or not in the official | ||||||
9 | service of the municipality, to be
examiners. The examiners | ||||||
10 | shall conduct the examinations as directed by the
commission | ||||||
11 | and shall make a return or report of the examinations to the
| ||||||
12 | commission. If the appointed examiners are in the official | ||||||
13 | service of the
municipality, the examiners shall not receive | ||||||
14 | extra compensation for conducting
the examinations unless the | ||||||
15 | examiners are subject to a collective bargaining agreement | ||||||
16 | with the municipality. The commission may at any time | ||||||
17 | substitute any other person,
whether or not in the service of | ||||||
18 | the municipality, in the place of any one
selected as an | ||||||
19 | examiner. The commission members may themselves at any time | ||||||
20 | act
as examiners without appointing examiners. The examiners | ||||||
21 | at any examination
shall not all be members of the same | ||||||
22 | political party.
| ||||||
23 | (h) In municipalities of 500,000 or more population, no | ||||||
24 | person who has
attained his or her 35th birthday shall be | ||||||
25 | eligible to take an examination for
a position as a fireman or | ||||||
26 | a policeman unless the person has had previous
employment |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | status as a policeman or fireman in the regularly constituted | ||||||
2 | police
or fire department of the municipality, except as | ||||||
3 | provided in this Section.
| ||||||
4 | (i) In municipalities of more than 5,000 but not more than | ||||||
5 | 200,000
inhabitants, no person who has attained his or her | ||||||
6 | 35th birthday shall be
eligible to take an examination for a | ||||||
7 | position as a fireman or a policeman
unless the person has had | ||||||
8 | previous employment status as a policeman or fireman
in the | ||||||
9 | regularly constituted police or fire department of the | ||||||
10 | municipality,
except as provided in this Section.
| ||||||
11 | (j) In all municipalities, applicants who are 20 years of | ||||||
12 | age and who have
successfully completed 2 years of law | ||||||
13 | enforcement studies at an accredited
college or university may | ||||||
14 | be considered for appointment to active duty with
the police | ||||||
15 | department. An applicant described in this subsection (j) who | ||||||
16 | is
appointed to active duty shall not have power of arrest, nor | ||||||
17 | shall the
applicant be permitted to carry firearms, until he | ||||||
18 | or she reaches 21 years of
age.
| ||||||
19 | (k) In municipalities of more than 500,000 population, | ||||||
20 | applications for
examination for and appointment to positions | ||||||
21 | as firefighters or police
shall be made available at various | ||||||
22 | branches of the public library of the
municipality.
| ||||||
23 | (l) No municipality having a population less than | ||||||
24 | 1,000,000 shall require
that any fireman appointed to the | ||||||
25 | lowest rank serve a probationary employment
period of longer | ||||||
26 | than one year. The limitation on periods of probationary
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | employment provided in Public Act 86-990 is an exclusive power | ||||||
2 | and
function of the State. Pursuant to subsection (h) of | ||||||
3 | Section 6 of Article VII
of the Illinois Constitution, a home | ||||||
4 | rule municipality having a population less
than 1,000,000 must | ||||||
5 | comply with this limitation on periods of probationary
| ||||||
6 | employment, which is a denial and limitation of home rule | ||||||
7 | powers.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this | ||||||
8 | Section, the probationary
employment period limitation may be | ||||||
9 | extended for a firefighter who is required, as a condition of | ||||||
10 | employment, to be a licensed paramedic, during which time the | ||||||
11 | sole reason that a firefighter may be discharged without a | ||||||
12 | hearing is for failing to meet the requirements for paramedic | ||||||
13 | licensure.
| ||||||
14 | (m) To the extent that this Section or any other Section in | ||||||
15 | this Division conflicts with Section 10-1-7.1 or 10-1-7.2, | ||||||
16 | then Section 10-1-7.1 or 10-1-7.2 shall control. | ||||||

(unless the | ||||||
25 | council or board of trustees by ordinance limit applicants to
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | electors of the municipality, county, state , or nation) and | ||||||
2 | shall be subject to

5 | States under federal law or is an individual against whom | ||||||

11 | other applicants are subject and (ii) the individual being | ||||||
12 | authorized under federal law to obtain, carry, or purchase or | ||||||
13 | otherwise possess a firearm.
The municipality may not charge | ||||||
14 | or collect any fee from an applicant who has
met all | ||||||
15 | prequalification standards established by the municipality for | ||||||
16 | any such
position. With respect to a police department, a | ||||||
17 | veteran shall be allowed to exceed the maximum age provision | ||||||
18 | of this Section by the number of years served on active | ||||||
19 | military duty, but by no more than 10 years of active military | ||||||
20 | duty.

that | ||||||
25 | individual during his period of service for that municipality, | ||||||
26 | or be
made a condition of promotion, except for the rank or |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | position of Fire or
Police Chief.
| ||||||
2 | (c) No person with a record of misdemeanor convictions | ||||||
3 | except those

Section 24-1 of the Criminal | ||||||
9 | Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012, or arrested for any | ||||||

character.
| ||||||
13 | (d) The age limitation in subsection (a) does not apply | ||||||
14 | (i) to any person

15 | fireman in a regularly constituted police
