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.
(70 ILCS 810/20) (from Ch. 96 1/2, par. 6423)

The president shall preside at all meetings of the board and
be the executive officer of the district. He shall sign all ordinances,
resolutions and other papers necessary to be signed and he or his designee shall execute
all contracts entered into by the district and perform other duties as
may be prescribed by ordinance. He may veto any ordinance and any
orders, resolutions and actions, or any items therein contained, of the
board which provide for the purchase of real estate, or for the
construction of improvements within the preserves of the district. Such
veto shall be filed with the secretary of the board within 5 days after
the passage of the ordinance, order, resolution or action and when so
vetoed the ordinance, order, resolution or action or any item therein
contained is not effective unless it is again passed by two-thirds vote
of all the members of the board. The president may vote in the same
manner as the other members of the board. In the temporary absence or
inability of the president, the members of the board may elect from
their own number a president, pro tem.
The "Yeas" and "Nays" shall be taken, and entered on the journal of
the board's proceedings, upon the passage of all ordinances and all
proposals to create any liability, or for the expenditure or
appropriation of money. The concurrence of a majority of all the members
appointed to the board is necessary to the passage of any such ordinance
or proposal. In all other cases the "Yeas" and "Nays" shall be taken at
the request of any member of the board and shall be entered on the
journal of the board's proceedings.
