25    is not a home rule unit, the county board or board of  county
26    commissioners  shall  declare  that  such  vacancy exists and
27    notification thereof shall be given  to  the  county  central
28    committee  or the appropriate county board or board of county
29    commissioners  district   committee   of   each   established

 3        Section  10.   The Downstate Forest Preserve District Act
 4    is amended by changing Section 3c as follows:

 5        (70 ILCS 805/3c)
 6        Sec.  3c.  Elected  board  of  commissioners  in  certain
 7    counties. If the boundaries of a  district  are  co-extensive
 8    with  the  boundaries of a county having a population of more
 9    than 800,000 but less than 3,000,000,  all  commissioners  of
10    the  forest  preserve district shall be elected from the same
11    districts as members of the county board beginning  with  the
12    general  election  held  in  2002 and each succeeding general
13    election.   One  commissioner  shall  be  elected  from  each
14    district.  At their first meeting  after  their  election  in
15    2002  and following each subsequent decennial reapportionment
16    of the county under Division 2-3 of the  Counties  Code,  the
17    elected commissioners shall publicly by lot divide themselves
18    into  2  groups, as equal in size as possible.  Commissioners
19    from the first group shall serve for terms of  2,  4,  and  4
20    years;  and  commissioners  from the second group shall serve
21    terms of 4, 4, and 2 years.  Commissioners elected under this
22    Section  shall  take  office  at   the   first   meeting   of
23    commissioners   following   an   election  of  commissioners.
24    Beginning with the general election in 2002, the president of
25    the board of commissioners of the  forest  preserve  district
26    shall  be elected by the voters of the county, rather than by
27    the commissioners.  The president shall be a resident of  the
28    county  and  shall  be  elected  throughout  the county for a
29    4-year term without having been first elected as commissioner
30    of the forest preserve district. Each commissioner shall be a
31    resident of the county board district from which  he  or  she
32    was  elected  not  later than the date of the commencement of
33    the term of office.  The term of office for the president and
 
                            -4-             LRB9207816ACcdccr
 1    commissioners elected under this Section  shall  commence  on
 2    the  first  Monday  of  the  month  following  the  month  of
 3    election.  Neither  a  commissioner  nor the president of the
 4    board of commissioners of that forest preserve district shall
 5    serve simultaneously as member  or  chairman  of  the  county
 6    board.   No  person  shall  seek  election to both the forest
 7    preserve  commission  and  the  county  board  at  the   same
 8    election.   The  compensation  for  the president shall be an
 9    amount equal to 85% of the annual salary of the county  board
10    chairman.  The  president, with the advice and consent of the
11    board of commissioners shall appoint a secretary,  treasurer,
12    and  such  other officers as deemed necessary by the board of
13    commissioners, which officers need  not  be  members  of  the
14    board  of commissioners.  The president shall have the powers
15    and duties as specified in Section 12 of this Act.
16        Candidates  for  president  and  commissioner  shall   be
17    candidates of established political parties.
18        If  a  vacancy in the office of president or commissioner
19    occurs, other than by expiration  of  the  president's  or  a
20    commissioner's  term,  the  forest preserve district board of
21    commissioners  shall  declare  that  a  vacancy  exists   and
22    notification  of  the  vacancy  shall  be given to the county
23    central committee of each established political party  within
24    3  business days after the occurrence of the vacancy.  If the
25    vacancy occurs in the  office  of  forest  preserve  district
26    commissioner,  the  president  of  the board of commissioners
27    shall, within 60 days after the date of the vacancy, with the
28    advice and  consent  of  other  commissioners  then  serving,
29    appoint  a person an individual to serve for the remainder of
30    the unexpired term.  The appointee shall be  affiliated  with
31    the  same political party as the commissioner in whose office
32    the vacancy occurred and be a resident of such district.   If
33    a  vacancy  in  the office of president occurs, other than by
34    expiration of the president's term, the remaining members  of
35    the  board  of  commissioners shall, within 60 days after the
 
                            -5-             LRB9207816ACcdccr
 1    vacancy,  appoint  one  of  the  commissioners  to  serve  as
 2    president for the remainder of the unexpired  term.  In  that
 3    case,  the  office  of  the  commissioner who is appointed to
 4    serve as president shall be deemed vacant and shall be filled
 5    within 60 days by  appointment  of  the  president  with  the
 6    advice  and  consent  of  the  other forest preserve district
 7    commissioners.  The commissioner who is appointed to  fill  a
 8    vacancy  in  the office of president shall be affiliated with
 9    the same political party  as  the  person  who  occupied  the
10    office of president prior to the vacancy.  A person appointed
11    to  fill a vacancy in the office of president or commissioner
12    shall establish his or her party affiliation by  his  or  her
13    record of voting in primary elections or by holding or having
14    held an office in an established political party organization
15    before  the appointment.  If the appointee has not voted in a
16    party primary election or is not holding or has not  held  an
17    office  in an established political party organization before
18    the appointment, the appointee shall  establish  his  or  her
19    political   party   affiliation  by  his  or  her  record  of
20    participating in an established political party's  nomination
21    or  election  caucus. If, however, more than 28 months remain
22    in the unexpired term of a commissioner or the president, the
23    appointment shall be  until  the  next  general  consolidated
24    election, at which time the vacated office of commissioner or
25    president  shall  be  filled by election for the remainder of
26    the term. Notwithstanding any  law  to  the  contrary,  if  a
27    vacancy occurs after the last day provided in Section 7-12 of
28    the Election Code for filing nomination papers for the office
29    of  president of a forest preserve district where that office
30    is elected as provided for in this Section, or as  set  forth
31    in Section 7-61 of the Election Code, a vacancy in nomination
32    shall  be  filled  by  the  passage  of  a  resolution by the
33    nominating committee of the affected political  party  within
34    the  time  periods  specified  in  the  Election  Code.   The
35    nominating  committee  shall  consist  of the chairman of the
 
                            -6-             LRB9207816ACcdccr
 1    county central committee and the  township  chairmen  of  the
 2    affected  political party.  All other vacancies in nomination
 3    shall be filled in accordance  with  the  provisions  of  the
 4    Election Code.
 5        The   president  and  commissioners  elected  under  this
 6    Section may  be  reimbursed  for  their  reasonable  expenses
 7    actually  incurred  in performing their official duties under
 8    this Act in accordance with the  provisions  of  Section  3a.
 9    The  reimbursement  paid  under this Section shall be paid by
10    the forest preserve district.
11        Compensation for forest  preserve  commissioners  elected
12    under  this Section shall be the same as that of county board
13    members  of  the  county  with  which  the  forest   preserve
14    district's boundaries are co-extensive.

 2    facility  selling  or  dispensing  the  alcoholic  liquor has
 3    provided dram shop liability insurance in maximum  limits  so
 4    as  to hold harmless the Village of Dolton and the State from

16             (iv)  the   facility   selling   or  dispensing  the
17        alcoholic  liquors  has  provided  dram  shop   liability
18        insurance  in  maximum  limits so as to save harmless the
