Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Metropolitan Transit Authority Act, the Local Mass Transit District Act, and the Regional Transportation Authority Act. Provides that, subject to appropriation, a local mass transit district, the Chicago Transit Authority, and the Suburban Bus Board must install one bench at each of the entity's public bus stops if the bus stop does not already have a bench installed. Allows a local mass transit district, the Authority, and the Board to install the benches in an order specified by the entities as funding is provided to the entity. Limits the concurrent exercise of home rule powers, except for reasonable restrictions on the location of the bench.
