from Ch. 122, par. 3A-15

Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the School Code.

Provides that each county located within the educational service region shall pay a per capita share of the legal fees incurred, based on the number of people in the county according to the most recent U.S. census.

Senate Floor Amendment No. 1
Deletes everything after the enacting clause. Amends the School Code. Provides that if, in multicounty educational service regions, the county boards grant approval through an intergovernmental agreement, or if, in educational service regions serving only one county, the county board grants approval, then the regional superintendent of schools is authorized to hire private legal counsel to represent him or her in legal matters (instead of the State's Attorney of the county where the regional superintendent's office is located acting as the legal representative), and each county located within the region shall pay a per capita share of the legal fees incurred, based on the number of people in the county according to the most recent U.S. census. Effective immediately.
