Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Illinois Municipal Code. Provides that the division regarding administrative adjudications applies to municipalities that are both home rule and non-home rule units (rather than to just home rule units).

Provides that, 90 days after the effective date of the amendatory Act, all code hearing departments formed under the repealed division shall conduct code enforcement, hearings, and all actions in accordance with the provisions of the Administrative Adjudications division. Makes other changes allowing code enforcement departments created under the Code Hearing Departments Division to operate pursuant to the Administrative Adjudications division. Effective immediately.

Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Amends the Illinois Municipal Code. Sets forth an alternative proceeding to take place after the expiration of the period in which judicial review may be sought for a final determination of a code violation. Provides that if a defendant has failed to comply with a judgment to correct a code violation or pay a fine, any expenses incurred by a municipality to enforce the judgment shall be a debt due and owing the municipality by the defendant. Sets forth notice and hearing requirements to determine whether the defendant has failed to comply with the judgment. Authorizes the municipality to impose a lien on the real estate or personal estate of the defendant in the amount of any debt due to the municipality. Permits a hearing officer to set aside any judgment entered by default and set a new hearing date if the hearing officer determines that the petitioner's failure to appear was for good cause or because the municipality did not provide proper service of process. Effective immediately.
