| ||||||
21 | (a) The Commission shall, each year, receive and consider |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | applications
for grant assistance under this Section. Subject | ||||||
2 | to a separate
appropriation for such purposes, an applicant is | ||||||
3 | eligible for a grant under
this Section when the Commission | ||||||
4 | finds that the applicant:
| ||||||
5 | (1) is a resident of this State and a citizen or | ||||||
6 | permanent resident
of the United States; and
| ||||||
7 | (2) in the absence of grant assistance, will be | ||||||
8 | deterred by
financial considerations from completing an | ||||||
9 | educational program at the
qualified institution of his or | ||||||
10 | her choice.
| ||||||
11 | (b) The Commission shall award renewals only upon the | ||||||
12 | student's application
and upon the Commission's finding that | ||||||
13 | the applicant:
| ||||||
14 | (1) has remained a student in good standing;
| ||||||
15 | (2) remains a resident of this State; and
| ||||||
16 | (3) is in a financial situation that continues to | ||||||
17 | warrant assistance.
| ||||||
18 | (c) All grants shall be applicable only to tuition and | ||||||
19 | necessary fee costs. The Commission shall determine the grant
| ||||||
20 | amount for each student, which shall not exceed the smallest of
| ||||||
21 | the following amounts:
| ||||||
22 | (1) subject to appropriation, $5,468 for fiscal year | ||||||
23 | 2009, $5,968 for fiscal year 2010, and $6,468 for fiscal | ||||||
24 | year 2011 and each fiscal year thereafter, or such lesser | ||||||
25 | amount as
the Commission finds to be available, during an | ||||||
26 | academic year;
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (2) the amount which equals 2 semesters or 3 quarters | ||||||
2 | tuition
and other necessary fees required generally by the | ||||||
3 | institution of all
full-time undergraduate students; or
| ||||||
4 | (3) such amount as the Commission finds to be | ||||||
5 | appropriate in view of
the applicant's financial | ||||||
6 | resources.
| ||||||
7 | Subject to appropriation, the maximum grant amount for | ||||||
8 | students not subject to subdivision (1) of this subsection (c) | ||||||
9 | must be increased by the same percentage as any increase made | ||||||
10 | by law to the maximum grant amount under subdivision (1) of | ||||||
11 | this subsection (c). | ||||||
12 | "Tuition and other necessary fees" as used in this Section | ||||||
13 | include the
customary charge for instruction and use of | ||||||
14 | facilities in general, and the
additional fixed fees charged | ||||||
15 | for specified purposes, which are required
generally of | ||||||
16 | nongrant recipients for each academic period for which the | ||||||
17 | grant
applicant actually enrolls, but do not include fees | ||||||
18 | payable only once or
breakage fees and other contingent | ||||||
19 | deposits which are refundable in whole or in
part. The | ||||||
20 | Commission may prescribe, by rule not inconsistent with this
| ||||||
21 | Section, detailed provisions concerning the computation of | ||||||
22 | tuition and other
necessary fees.
| ||||||
23 | (d) No applicant, including those presently receiving | ||||||
24 | scholarship
assistance under this Act, is eligible for monetary | ||||||
25 | award program
consideration under this Act after receiving a | ||||||
26 | baccalaureate degree or
the equivalent of 135 semester credit |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | hours of award payments.
| ||||||
2 | (e) The Commission, in determining the number of grants to | ||||||
3 | be offered,
shall take into consideration past experience with | ||||||
4 | the rate of grant funds
unclaimed by recipients. The Commission | ||||||
5 | shall notify applicants that grant
assistance is contingent | ||||||
6 | upon the availability of appropriated funds.
| ||||||
7 | (e-5) The General Assembly finds and declares that it is an | ||||||
8 | important purpose of the Monetary Award Program to facilitate | ||||||
9 | access to college both for students who pursue postsecondary | ||||||
10 | education immediately following high school and for those who | ||||||
11 | pursue postsecondary education later in life, particularly | ||||||
12 | Illinoisans who are dislocated workers with financial need and | ||||||
13 | who are seeking to improve their economic position through | ||||||
14 | education. For the 2015-2016 and 2016-2017 academic years, the | ||||||
15 | Commission shall give additional and specific consideration to | ||||||
16 | the needs of dislocated workers with the intent of allowing | ||||||
17 | applicants who are dislocated workers an opportunity to secure | ||||||
18 | financial assistance even if applying later than the general | ||||||
19 | pool of applicants. The Commission's consideration shall | ||||||
20 | include, in determining the number of grants to be offered, an | ||||||
21 | estimate of the resources needed to serve dislocated workers | ||||||
22 | who apply after the Commission initially suspends award | ||||||
23 | announcements for the upcoming regular academic year, but prior | ||||||
24 | to the beginning of that academic year. For the purposes of | ||||||
25 | this subsection (e-5), a dislocated worker is defined as in the | ||||||
26 | federal Workforce Investment Act of 1998. |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (f) (Blank). The Commission may request appropriations for | ||||||
2 | deposit into the
Monetary Award Program Reserve Fund. Monies | ||||||
3 | deposited into the Monetary Award
Program Reserve Fund may be | ||||||
4 | expended exclusively for one purpose: to make
Monetary Award | ||||||
5 | Program grants to eligible students. Amounts on deposit in the
| ||||||
6 | Monetary Award Program Reserve Fund may not exceed 2% of the | ||||||
7 | current annual
State appropriation for the Monetary Award | ||||||
8 | Program.
| ||||||
9 | The purpose of the Monetary Award Program Reserve Fund is | ||||||
10 | to enable the
Commission each year to assure as many students | ||||||
11 | as possible of their
eligibility for a Monetary Award Program | ||||||
12 | grant and to do so before commencement
of the academic year. | ||||||
13 | Moneys deposited in this Reserve Fund are intended to
enhance | ||||||
14 | the Commission's management of the Monetary Award Program, | ||||||
15 | minimizing
the necessity, magnitude, and frequency of | ||||||
16 | adjusting award amounts and ensuring
that the annual Monetary | ||||||
17 | Award Program appropriation can be fully utilized.
| ||||||
18 | (g) The Commission shall determine the eligibility of and | ||||||
19 | make grants to
applicants enrolled at qualified for-profit | ||||||
20 | institutions in accordance with the
criteria set forth in this | ||||||
21 | Section. The eligibility of applicants enrolled at
such | ||||||
22 | for-profit institutions shall be limited as follows:
| ||||||
23 | (1) Beginning with the academic year 1997, only to | ||||||
24 | eligible first-time
freshmen and
first-time transfer | ||||||
25 | students who have attained an associate degree.
| ||||||
26 | (2) Beginning with the academic year 1998, only to |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | eligible freshmen
students,
transfer students who have | ||||||
2 | attained an associate degree, and students who
receive a | ||||||
3 | grant under paragraph (1) for the academic year 1997 and | ||||||
4 | whose grants
are being renewed for the academic year 1998.
| ||||||
5 | (3) Beginning with the academic year 1999, to all | ||||||
6 | eligible students.
| ||||||

9 | amended by changing Section 7 as follows:
| ||||||
10 | (410 ILCS 405/7) (from Ch. 111 1/2, par. 6957)

| ||||||
12 | appropriations enacted by the General Assembly, the Department | ||||||
13 | shall
provide funds to hospitals affiliated with each
Regional | ||||||
14 | ADA Center for
necessary research and
for the development and | ||||||
15 | maintenance of services for individuals with Alzheimer's
| ||||||
16 | disease and related disorders and their families. For the | ||||||
17 | fiscal year
beginning July 1, 2003, and each year thereafter, | ||||||
18 | the Department shall effect
payments under this Section to | ||||||
19 | hospitals affiliated with each Regional ADA
Center through the | ||||||
20 | Department of Healthcare and Family Services (formerly
| ||||||
21 | Illinois Department of Public Aid) under the Excellence in | ||||||
22 | Alzheimer's Disease Center Treatment Act . The Department of | ||||||
23 | Healthcare and Family Services shall annually report to the | ||||||
24 | Advisory Committee established under this Act regarding the |
| |||||||

23 | major categories of proposed expenditures, including salary, |
| |||||||
| |||||||

| ||||||

10 | The registration cards shall be deemed public records and | ||||||
11 | shall be
open to inspection during regular business hours, | ||||||

days immediately preceding any election. | ||||||
13 | On written request of any

election authority shall | ||||||
15 | extend its hours for inspection of registration
cards and other | ||||||

19 | hearings on
any objections to petitions containing signatures | ||||||
20 | of registered voters in
the jurisdiction of the election | ||||||
21 | authority. The extension shall be for a
period of hours | ||||||
22 | sufficient to allow adequate opportunity for examination of
the | ||||||
23 | records but the election authority is not required to extend | ||||||
24 | its hours
beyond the period beginning at its normal opening for | ||||||
25 | business and ending
at midnight. If the business hours are so |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | extended, the election authority
shall post a public notice of | ||||||
2 | such extended hours. Registration record
cards may also be | ||||||
3 | inspected, upon approval of the officer in charge of the
cards, | ||||||
4 | during the 27 days immediately preceding any election.
| ||||||
5 | Registration
record cards shall also be open to inspection by | ||||||
6 | certified judges and poll
watchers and challengers at the | ||||||
7 | polling place on election day, but only to

vote or | ||||||
9 | to serve as a judge of election. At no time shall poll watchers | ||||||
10 | or
challengers be allowed to physically handle the registration | ||||||
11 | record cards.

prescribed by the

18 | the purposes of this Section, a registration period is closed | ||||||
19 | 27
days before the date of any regular or special election. | ||||||
20 | Registration
information shall include, but not be limited to, | ||||||
21 | the
following information: name, sex, residence, telephone | ||||||

8 | registered
thereon.
| ||||||
9 | Each registration record card shall be numbered according | ||||||
10 | to wards or
precincts, as the case may be, and may be serially | ||||||
11 | or otherwise marked
for identification in such manner as the | ||||||
12 | Board of Election Commissioners
may determine.
| ||||||
13 | The registration cards shall be deemed public records and | ||||||
14 | shall be
open to inspection during regular business hours, | ||||||
15 | except during the 27
days immediately preceding any election. | ||||||
16 | On written request of any
candidate or objector or any person | ||||||

election authority shall | ||||||
18 | extend its hours for inspection of registration
cards and other | ||||||
19 | records of the election authority during the period
beginning | ||||||
20 | with the filing of petitions under Sections 7-10, 8-8, 10-6 or

22 | hearings on
any objections to petitions containing signatures | ||||||
23 | of registered voters in
the jurisdiction of the election | ||||||
24 | authority. The extension shall be for a
period of hours | ||||||
25 | sufficient to allow adequate opportunity for examination of
the | ||||||
26 | records but the election authority is not required to extend |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | its hours
beyond the period beginning at its normal opening for | ||||||
2 | business and ending
at midnight. If the business hours are so | ||||||
3 | extended, the election authority
shall post a public notice of | ||||||
4 | such extended hours. Registration record cards
may also be | ||||||
5 | inspected, upon approval of the officer in charge of the cards,
| ||||||
6 | during the 27 days immediately preceding any election. | ||||||
7 | Registration
record
cards shall also be open to inspection by | ||||||
8 | certified judges and poll watchers
and challengers at the | ||||||
9 | polling place on election day, but only to the extent
necessary | ||||||
10 | to determine the question of the right of a person to vote or | ||||||
11 | to
serve as a judge of election. At no time shall poll watchers | ||||||
12 | or challengers be
allowed to physically handle the registration | ||||||
13 | record cards.
| ||||||
14 | Updated copies of computer tapes or computer discs or other | ||||||
15 | electronic data
processing information containing voter | ||||||
16 | registration information shall
be furnished by the Board of | ||||||
17 | Election Commissioners within 10 days after

19 | is closed to the State Board
of Elections in a
form prescribed | ||||||
20 | by the State Board. For the purposes of this Section, a
| ||||||
21 | registration period is closed 27 days before the date of any | ||||||
22 | regular
or special
election. Registration information shall
| ||||||
23 | include, but not be limited to, the following information: | ||||||

| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | In the event of noncompliance,
the State Board of Elections is | ||||||
2 | directed to obtain compliance forthwith
with this | ||||||
3 | nondiscretionary duty of the election authority by instituting
| ||||||
4 | legal proceedings in the circuit court of the county in which | ||||||
5 | the election
authority maintains the registration information. | ||||||
6 | The costs of furnishing
updated copies of tapes or discs shall | ||||||
7 | be paid at a rate of $.00034
per name of registered voters in | ||||||
8 | the election jurisdiction, but not less
than $50 per tape or | ||||||
9 | disc and shall be paid from appropriations made to the
State | ||||||
10 | Board of Elections for reimbursement to the election authority | ||||||
11 | for
such purpose. The State Board shall furnish copies of such | ||||||
12 | tapes, discs,
other electronic data or compilations thereof to | ||||||
13 | state political committees
registered pursuant to the Illinois | ||||||
14 | Campaign Finance Act or the Federal
Election Campaign Act and | ||||||
15 | to governmental entities, at their request and at a reasonable | ||||||
16 | cost.
To protect the privacy and confidentiality of voter | ||||||
17 | registration information,
the disclosure
of electronic voter | ||||||
18 | registration records to any person or entity other than to a
| ||||||
19 | State or local political
committee and other than to a | ||||||
20 | governmental entity for a governmental
purpose is specifically | ||||||
21 | prohibited except as follows: subject to security measures | ||||||
22 | adopted by the State Board of Elections which, at a minimum, | ||||||
23 | shall include the keeping of a catalog or database, available | ||||||
24 | for public view, including the name, address, and telephone | ||||||
25 | number of the person viewing the list as well as the time of | ||||||
26 | that viewing, any person may view the centralized statewide |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | voter registration list on a computer screen at the Springfield | ||||||
2 | office of the State Board of Elections, during normal business | ||||||
3 | hours other than during the 27 days before an election, but the | ||||||
4 | person viewing the list under this exception may not print, | ||||||
5 | duplicate, transmit, or alter the list.
Copies of the
tapes, | ||||||
6 | discs or other electronic data shall be furnished by the Board | ||||||
7 | of
Election Commissioners to local political committees and | ||||||
8 | governmental entities at their request and at a
reasonable | ||||||
9 | cost. Reasonable cost of the tapes, discs, et cetera for
this | ||||||
10 | purpose would be the cost of duplication plus 15% for
| ||||||
11 | administration. The individual representing a political | ||||||
12 | committee
requesting copies of such tapes shall make a sworn | ||||||
13 | affidavit that the
information shall be used only for bona fide | ||||||
14 | political purposes,
including by or for candidates for office | ||||||
15 | or incumbent office holders.
Such tapes, discs or other | ||||||
16 | electronic data shall not be used under any
circumstances by | ||||||
17 | any political committee or individuals for purposes of
| ||||||
18 | commercial solicitation or other business purposes. If such | ||||||
19 | tapes
contain information on county residents related to the | ||||||
20 | operations of
county government in addition to registration | ||||||
21 | information, that
information shall not be used under any | ||||||
22 | circumstances for commercial
solicitation or other business | ||||||
23 | purposes. The prohibition in this
Section against using the | ||||||
24 | computer tapes or computer discs or other
electronic data | ||||||
25 | processing information containing voter registration
| ||||||
26 | information for purposes of commercial solicitation or other |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | business
purposes shall be prospective only from the effective | ||||||
2 | date of this
amended Act of 1979. Any person who violates this | ||||||
3 | provision shall be
guilty of a Class 4 felony.
| ||||||
4 | The State Board of Elections shall promulgate, by October | ||||||
5 | 1, 1987, such
regulations as may be necessary to ensure | ||||||
6 | uniformity throughout the State
in electronic data processing | ||||||
7 | of voter registration information. The
regulations shall | ||||||
8 | include, but need not be limited to, specifications for
uniform | ||||||
9 | medium, communications protocol and file structure to be | ||||||
10 | employed
by the election authorities of this State in the | ||||||
11 | electronic data processing
of voter registration information. | ||||||
12 | Each election authority utilizing
electronic data processing | ||||||
13 | of voter registration information shall comply
with such | ||||||
14 | regulations on and after May 15, 1988.
| ||||||
15 | If the applicant for registration was last registered in | ||||||
16 | another
county within this State, he shall also sign a | ||||||
17 | certificate authorizing
cancellation of the former | ||||||
18 | registration. The certificate shall be in

| ||||||
12 | (20 ILCS 105/4.02) (from Ch. 23, par. 6104.02)
| ||||||
13 | Sec. 4.02. Community Care Program. The Department shall | ||||||
14 | establish a program of services to
prevent unnecessary | ||||||
15 | institutionalization of persons age 60 and older in
need of | ||||||
16 | long term care or who are established as persons who suffer | ||||||
17 | from
Alzheimer's disease or a related disorder under the | ||||||
18 | Alzheimer's Disease
Assistance Act, thereby enabling them
to | ||||||
19 | remain in their own homes or in other living arrangements. Such
| ||||||
20 | preventive services, which may be coordinated with other | ||||||
21 | programs for the
aged and monitored by area agencies on aging | ||||||
22 | in cooperation with the
Department, may include, but are not | ||||||
23 | limited to, any or all of the following:
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (a) (blank);
| ||||||
2 | (b) (blank);
| ||||||
3 | (c) home care aide services;
| ||||||
4 | (d) personal assistant services;
| ||||||
5 | (e) adult day services;
| ||||||
6 | (f) home-delivered meals;
| ||||||
7 | (g) education in self-care;
| ||||||
8 | (h) personal care services;
| ||||||
9 | (i) adult day health services;
| ||||||

16 | (l) other nonmedical social services that may enable | ||||||
17 | the person
to become self-supporting; or
| ||||||
18 | (m) clearinghouse for information provided by senior | ||||||
19 | citizen home owners
who want to rent rooms to or share | ||||||
20 | living space with other senior citizens.
| ||||||
21 | The Department shall establish eligibility standards for | ||||||
22 | such
services. In determining the amount and nature of services
| ||||||
23 | for which a person may qualify, consideration shall not be | ||||||
24 | given to the
value of cash, property or other assets held in | ||||||
25 | the name of the person's
spouse pursuant to a written agreement | ||||||
26 | dividing marital property into equal
but separate shares or |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | pursuant to a transfer of the person's interest in a
home to | ||||||
2 | his spouse, provided that the spouse's share of the marital
| ||||||
3 | property is not made available to the person seeking such | ||||||
4 | services.
| ||||||
5 | Beginning January 1, 2008, the Department shall require as | ||||||
6 | a condition of eligibility that all new financially eligible | ||||||
7 | applicants apply for and enroll in medical assistance under | ||||||
8 | Article V of the Illinois Public Aid Code in accordance with | ||||||
9 | rules promulgated by the Department.
| ||||||
10 | The Department shall, in conjunction with the Department of | ||||||
11 | Public Aid (now Department of Healthcare and Family Services),
| ||||||
12 | seek appropriate amendments under Sections 1915 and 1924 of the | ||||||
13 | Social
Security Act. The purpose of the amendments shall be to | ||||||
14 | extend eligibility
for home and community based services under | ||||||
15 | Sections 1915 and 1924 of the
Social Security Act to persons | ||||||
16 | who transfer to or for the benefit of a
spouse those amounts of | ||||||
17 | income and resources allowed under Section 1924 of
the Social | ||||||
18 | Security Act. Subject to the approval of such amendments, the
| ||||||
19 | Department shall extend the provisions of Section 5-4 of the | ||||||
20 | Illinois
Public Aid Code to persons who, but for the provision | ||||||
21 | of home or
community-based services, would require the level of | ||||||
22 | care provided in an
institution, as is provided for in federal | ||||||
23 | law. Those persons no longer
found to be eligible for receiving | ||||||
24 | noninstitutional services due to changes
in the eligibility | ||||||
25 | criteria shall be given 45 days notice prior to actual
| ||||||
26 | termination. Those persons receiving notice of termination may |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | contact the
Department and request the determination be | ||||||
2 | appealed at any time during the
45 day notice period. The | ||||||
3 | target
population identified for the purposes of this Section | ||||||
4 | are persons age 60
and older with an identified service need. | ||||||
5 | Priority shall be given to those
who are at imminent risk of | ||||||
6 | institutionalization. The services shall be
provided to | ||||||
7 | eligible persons age 60 and older to the extent that the cost
| ||||||
8 | of the services together with the other personal maintenance
| ||||||
9 | expenses of the persons are reasonably related to the standards
| ||||||
10 | established for care in a group facility appropriate to the | ||||||
11 | person's
condition. These non-institutional services, pilot | ||||||
12 | projects or
experimental facilities may be provided as part of | ||||||
13 | or in addition to
those authorized by federal law or those | ||||||
14 | funded and administered by the
Department of Human Services. | ||||||
15 | The Departments of Human Services, Healthcare and Family | ||||||
16 | Services,
Public Health, Veterans' Affairs, and Commerce and | ||||||
17 | Economic Opportunity and
other appropriate agencies of State, | ||||||
18 | federal and local governments shall
cooperate with the | ||||||
19 | Department on Aging in the establishment and development
of the | ||||||
20 | non-institutional services. The Department shall require an | ||||||
21 | annual
audit from all personal assistant
and home care aide | ||||||
22 | vendors contracting with
the Department under this Section. The | ||||||
23 | annual audit shall assure that each
audited vendor's procedures | ||||||
24 | are in compliance with Department's financial
reporting | ||||||
25 | guidelines requiring an administrative and employee wage and | ||||||
26 | benefits cost split as defined in administrative rules. The |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | audit is a public record under
the Freedom of Information Act. | ||||||
2 | The Department shall execute, relative to
the nursing home | ||||||
3 | prescreening project, written inter-agency
agreements with the | ||||||
4 | Department of Human Services and the Department
of Healthcare | ||||||
5 | and Family Services, to effect the following: (1) intake | ||||||
6 | procedures and common
eligibility criteria for those persons | ||||||
7 | who are receiving non-institutional
services; and (2) the | ||||||
8 | establishment and development of non-institutional
services in | ||||||
9 | areas of the State where they are not currently available or | ||||||
10 | are
undeveloped. On and after July 1, 1996, all nursing home | ||||||
11 | prescreenings for
individuals 60 years of age or older shall be | ||||||
12 | conducted by the Department.
| ||||||
13 | As part of the Department on Aging's routine training of | ||||||
14 | case managers and case manager supervisors, the Department may | ||||||
15 | include information on family futures planning for persons who | ||||||
16 | are age 60 or older and who are caregivers of their adult | ||||||
17 | children with developmental disabilities. The content of the | ||||||
18 | training shall be at the Department's discretion. | ||||||
19 | The Department is authorized to establish a system of | ||||||
20 | recipient copayment
for services provided under this Section, | ||||||
21 | such copayment to be based upon
the recipient's ability to pay | ||||||
22 | but in no case to exceed the actual cost of
the services | ||||||
23 | provided. Additionally, any portion of a person's income which
| ||||||
24 | is equal to or less than the federal poverty standard shall not | ||||||
25 | be
considered by the Department in determining the copayment. | ||||||
26 | The level of
such copayment shall be adjusted whenever |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | necessary to reflect any change
in the officially designated | ||||||
2 | federal poverty standard.
| ||||||
3 | The Department, or the Department's authorized | ||||||
4 | representative, may
recover the amount of moneys expended for | ||||||
5 | services provided to or in
behalf of a person under this | ||||||
6 | Section by a claim against the person's
estate or against the | ||||||
7 | estate of the person's surviving spouse, but no
recovery may be | ||||||
8 | had until after the death of the surviving spouse, if
any, and | ||||||
9 | then only at such time when there is no surviving child who
is | ||||||
10 | under age 21 or blind or who has a permanent and total | ||||||
11 | disability. This
paragraph, however, shall not bar recovery, at | ||||||
12 | the death of the person, of
moneys for services provided to the | ||||||
13 | person or in behalf of the person under
this Section to which | ||||||
14 | the person was not entitled;
provided that such recovery shall | ||||||
15 | not be enforced against any real estate while
it is occupied as | ||||||
16 | a homestead by the surviving spouse or other dependent, if no
| ||||||
17 | claims by other creditors have been filed against the estate, | ||||||
18 | or, if such
claims have been filed, they remain dormant for | ||||||
19 | failure of prosecution or
failure of the claimant to compel | ||||||
20 | administration of the estate for the purpose
of payment. This | ||||||
21 | paragraph shall not bar recovery from the estate of a spouse,
| ||||||
22 | under Sections 1915 and 1924 of the Social Security Act and | ||||||
23 | Section 5-4 of the
Illinois Public Aid Code, who precedes a | ||||||
24 | person receiving services under this
Section in death. All | ||||||
25 | moneys for services
paid to or in behalf of the person under | ||||||
26 | this Section shall be claimed for
recovery from the deceased |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | spouse's estate. "Homestead", as used
in this paragraph, means | ||||||
2 | the dwelling house and
contiguous real estate occupied by a | ||||||
3 | surviving spouse
or relative, as defined by the rules and | ||||||
4 | regulations of the Department of Healthcare and Family | ||||||
5 | Services, regardless of the value of the property.
| ||||||
6 | The Department shall increase the effectiveness of the | ||||||
7 | existing Community Care Program by: | ||||||
8 | (1) ensuring that in-home services included in the care | ||||||
9 | plan are available on evenings and weekends; | ||||||
10 | (2) ensuring that care plans contain the services that | ||||||
11 | eligible participants
need based on the number of days in a | ||||||
12 | month, not limited to specific blocks of time, as | ||||||
13 | identified by the comprehensive assessment tool selected | ||||||
14 | by the Department for use statewide, not to exceed the | ||||||
15 | total monthly service cost maximum allowed for each | ||||||
16 | service; the Department shall develop administrative rules | ||||||
17 | to implement this item (2); | ||||||
18 | (3) ensuring that the participants have the right to | ||||||

certify that they are | ||||||
8 | meeting the federal minimum wage statute for home care aides
| ||||||
9 | and personal assistants. An employer that cannot ensure that | ||||||
10 | the minimum

| ||||||
15 | (b-1) No Beginning January 1, 1995,
no person shall | ||||||
16 | knowingly mix any used or waste tire, either whole or cut, with
| ||||||
17 | municipal waste, and no owner or operator of a sanitary | ||||||
18 | landfill shall accept
any used or waste tire for final | ||||||
19 | disposal; except that used or waste tires,
when separated from | ||||||
20 | other waste, may be accepted if : (1) the sanitary landfill
| ||||||
21 | provides and maintains a means for shredding, slitting, or | ||||||
22 | chopping whole tires
and so treats whole tires and, if approved | ||||||
23 | by the Agency in a permit issued
under this Act, uses the used | ||||||
24 | or waste tires for alternative uses, which may
include on-site | ||||||
25 | practices such as lining of roadways with tire scraps,
| ||||||
26 | alternative daily cover, or use in a leachate collection system |
