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.
(65 ILCS 5/11-13-14) (from Ch. 24, par. 11-13-14)
Sec. 11-13-14.
The regulations imposed and the districts created under
the authority of this Division 13 may be amended from time to time by
ordinance after the ordinance establishing them has gone into effect, but
no such amendments shall be made without a hearing before some commission
or committee designated by the corporate authorities. Notice shall be given
of the time and place of the hearing, not more than 30 nor less than 15
days before the hearing, by publishing a notice thereof at least once in
one or more newspapers published in the municipality, or, if no newspaper
is published therein, then in one or more newspapers with a general
circulation within the municipality. In municipalities with less than 500
population in which no newspaper is published, publication may be made
instead by posting a notice in 3 prominent places within the municipality. In
case of a written protest against any proposed amendment of the regulations
or districts, signed and acknowledged by the owners of 20% of the frontage
proposed to be altered, or by the owners of 20% of the frontage immediately
adjoining or across an alley therefrom, or by the owners of the 20% of the
frontage directly opposite the frontage proposed to be altered, is filed
with the clerk of the municipality, the amendment shall not be passed
except by a favorable vote of two-thirds of the alderpersons or trustees of the
municipality then holding office. In such cases, a copy of the written
protest shall be served by the protestor or protestors on the applicant for
the proposed amendments and a copy upon the applicant's attorney, if any,
by certified mail at the address of such applicant and attorney shown in
the application for the proposed amendment. Any notice required by this Section need not include a metes and bounds legal description, provided that the notice includes: (i) the common street address or addresses and (ii) the property index number ("PIN") or numbers of all the parcels of real property contained in the affected area.
