1 AN ACT concerning counties.
2 Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
3 represented in the General Assembly:
4 Section 5. The Counties Code is amended by changing the
5 title of Division 4-1 and by adding Section 4-1002 as
6 follows:
7 (55 ILCS 5/Div. 4-1 caption)
8 DIVISION 4-1. CLASSIFICATION OF
9 COUNTIES; FEES GENERALLY
10 (55 ILCS 5/4-1002 new)
11 Sec. 4-1002. Notwithstanding any other statutory
12 provision, a county board may by ordinance increase any
13 statutorily authorized fees and collect those increased fees
14 from all persons and entities other than officers, agencies,
15 departments, and other instrumentalities of the State if the
16 increase is justified by an acceptable cost study showing
17 that the current fee is not sufficient to cover the cost of
18 providing the service. A statement of the costs of providing
19 each service, program, and activity must be prepared by the
20 county board. All supporting documents are public records
21 and are subject to public examination and audit. All direct
22 and indirect costs, as defined in the United State Office of
23 Management and Budget Circular A-87, may be included in the
24 determination of the costs of each service, program, and
25 activity.
26 Section 99. Effective date. This Act takes effect upon
27 becoming law.
