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.
(410 ILCS 25/4) (from Ch. 111 1/2, par. 3714) Sec. 4. Illinois Accessibility Code. The Capital Development Board shall adopt and publish accessibility standards known as the Illinois Accessibility Code. With respect to public facilities, the Code shall dictate minimum design, construction, and alteration requirements to facilitate access to and use of the public facility by individuals with disabilities. With respect to multi-story housing, the Code shall dictate minimum design and construction requirements to facilitate access to and use of the common areas by individuals with disabilities and create a number of adaptable dwelling units in accordance with Section 5. The Code shall be adopted and revised in accordance with the Illinois Administrative Procedure Act. Beginning on the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 98th General Assembly, the Capital Development Board shall begin the process of updating the 1997 Illinois Accessibility Code and shall model the updates on the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design. By no later than January 1, 2017, the Capital Development Board shall adopt and publish the updated Illinois Accessibility Code. The updated Illinois Accessibility Code may be more stringent than the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design and may identify specific standards. Beginning on January 1, 2017, if the ADA Standards for Accessible Design are updated, then the Capital Development Board shall update its accessibility standards, in keeping with the ADA Standards for Accessible Design, within 3 years after the ADA Standards for Accessible Design updates and shall adopt and publish an updated Illinois Accessibility Code. The Capital Development Board may issue written interpretation of the Code within 30 calendar days of receipt of a written request unless a longer period is agreed to by the parties. Interpretations issued under this Section are project specific and do not constitute precedent for future or different circumstances.(Source: P.A. 98-224, eff. 1-1-14; 99-61, eff. 7-16-15; 99-582, eff. 1-1-17.) |
