HB3830 LRB103 25442 AWJ 51790 b
AN ACT concerning local government.
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
represented in the General Assembly:
Section 5. The Public Officer Prohibited Activities Act is
amended by changing Section 2 as follows:
(50 ILCS 105/2) (from Ch. 102, par. 2)
Sec. 2. No mayor or alderperson of any city, or president
or member of the board of trustees of any village, during the
term of office for which he or she is elected, may accept, be
appointed to, or hold any office or position of compensated
employment by the appointment of the mayor or president of the
board of trustees, unless the alderperson or board member is
granted a leave of absence from such office, or unless he or
she first resigns from the office of alderperson or member of
the board of trustees, or unless the holding of another office
is authorized by law. The mayor, president, alderperson, or
board member may, however, serve as a volunteer fireman and
receive compensation for that service. The alderperson may
also serve as a commissioner of the Beardstown Regional Flood
Prevention District board. Any appointment in violation of
this Section is void. Nothing in this Act shall be construed to
prohibit an elected municipal official from holding elected
office in another unit of local government as long as there is

no contractual relationship between the municipality and the
other unit of local government. This amendatory Act of 1995 is
declarative of existing law and is not a new enactment.
