SB0692eng 103RD GENERAL ASSEMBLY

SB0692 Engrossed LRB103 03145 AWJ 48151 b

1     AN ACT concerning local government.

2     Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
3 represented in the General Assembly:

4     Section 5. The Department of Commerce and Economic
5 Opportunity Law of the Civil Administrative Code of Illinois
6 is amended by adding Section 605-1115 as follows:

7     (20 ILCS 605/605-1115 new)
8     Sec. 605-1115. Task Force on Interjurisdictional
9 Industrial Zoning Impacts.
10     (a) The General Assembly finds that industrial
11 developments typically have regional impacts, both positive
12 and negative. Those impacts extend beyond the zoning authority
13 of the unit of local government where the development is
14 located. Units of local government may experience impacts on
15 public health, public safety, the environment, traffic,
16 property values, population, and other considerations as a
17 result of industrial development occurring outside of the
18 their zoning jurisdiction, including areas adjacent to their
19 borders.
20     (b) The Task Force on Interjurisdictional Industrial
21 Zoning Impacts is created within the Department of Commerce
22 and Economic Opportunity. The Task Force shall examine the
23 following:

1         (1) current State and local zoning laws and policies
2     related to large industrial developments;
3         (2) current State and local laws and policies related
4     to annexation;
5         (3) State and local zoning and annexation laws and
6     policies outside of Illinois;
7         (4) the potential impacts of large industrial
8     developments on neighboring units of local government,
9     including how those developments may affect residential
10     communities;
11         (5) trends in industrial zoning across urban,
12     suburban, and rural regions of Illinois;
13         (6) available methodologies to determine the impact of
14     large industrial developments; and
15         (7) outcomes in recent zoning proceedings for large
16     industrial developments or attempts to develop properties
17     for large industrial purposes, including the recent
18     attempt to convert a 101 acre campus in Lake County near
19     Deerfield.
