MUNI CODE-NUMBER OF ALDERMEN
Summary
Amends the Illinois Municipal Code. Provides that a municipality with 15,000 or more inhabitants may adopt, either by ordinance or by resolution, at least 180 days before the first municipal election following the municipality's receipt of the new federal decennial census results "or any other official census results, including but not limited to special census results", a specified number of aldermen (less than the number required elsewhere in the Act).
