Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

20 ILCS 655/9.3

(20 ILCS 655/9.3)
Sec. 9.3. Railroad right-of-way.

Any business entity located in an enterprise zone shall be granted access to build facilities to cross a railroad right-of-way owned by a land management company and not a registered rail carrier for the purpose of conveyance of grain, aggregate, construction materials, and other commodities over, under, or across that right-of-way.  A business entity whose facilities cross a right-of-way shall pay the land management company operating the right-of-way a one time standard crossing fee of $1,500 for each crossing plus the cost associated with modifications to existing insurance contracts of the land management company.  The standard crossing fee shall be in lieu of any license, permit, application, or any other fee or charges to reimburse the land management company for the direct expense incurred by the land management company as a result of the crossing.  The company shall also reimburse the land management company or rail carrier for any actual flagging expenses associated with the crossing in addition to the standard crossing fee.
