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.

Sec. 25. Terms of members; compensation; expenses.

(a) Of the initial members, the appointments under clauses (a)(3) and (6) of Section 20 shall be for
one-year terms, the appointments under clauses (a)(1), (2), and (4) of Section 20 shall be for 2-year terms, and the
appointments under clause (a)(5) of Section 20 shall be for 3-year terms. Thereafter, all terms
shall be for 3 years. Members of the Commission shall serve no
more than 2 consecutive 3-year terms plus any initial term of
less than 3 years. Unless provided otherwise by this Act, all
terms of members shall begin on January 1 and end on December
31.

Members serving by virtue of elective or appointive office,
may serve only so long as the office holders hold those
respective offices. The Chief Judge of the Cook County Circuit
Court may remove members for good cause shown. Vacancies occurring
before the expiration of a term shall be filled in the manner
provided for the members first appointed.

(b) The Commission members shall receive no salary for
serving, but may be reimbursed for reasonable expenses incurred as a result of their duties as members of the Commission from funds appropriated by the General Assembly for that purpose, or from funds obtained from sources other than the General Assembly.
