1   AN ACT concerning State government.

2   Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,

3 represented in the General Assembly:

4   Section 5. The Department of Commerce and Economic

5 Opportunity Law of the Civil Administrative Code of Illinois

10  Sec. 605-1117 605-1115. Task Force on Interjurisdictional

11 Industrial Zoning Impacts.

12  (a) The General Assembly finds that industrial

13 developments typically have regional impacts, both positive

14 and negative. Those impacts extend beyond the zoning authority

15 of the unit of local government where the development is

16 located. Units of local government may experience impacts on

17 public health, public safety, the environment, traffic,

18 property values, population, and other considerations as a

19 result of industrial development occurring outside of the

20 their zoning jurisdiction, including areas adjacent to their

21 borders.

22  (b) The Task Force on Interjurisdictional Industrial

23 Zoning Impacts is created within the Department of Commerce
