(730 ILCS 175/45-95)
Sec. 45-95.
Operation without license.
Whenever the Department is advised, or has reason to believe, that any
person, group of persons, corporation, or other entity is operating a secure
residential youth care facility
without a license or permit, it shall make an investigation to ascertain the
facts. If the Department is denied access, it shall request intervention
by local, county, or State law enforcement agencies to seek an appropriate
court order or warrant to examine the premises. A person or entity
preventing the Department from carrying out its duties under this Section
is guilty of a violation of this Act.
If the Department finds that the secure residential youth care
facility is
being, or has, operated
without a license or permit, it shall report the results of its investigation
to the Attorney General and to the appropriate State's Attorney for
prosecution.
