Illinois Compiled Statutes 105 ILCS 5 School Code. Section 7-2.4

    (105 ILCS 5/7-2.4) (from Ch. 122, par. 7-2.4)

    Sec. 7-2.4. A petition for annexation to or detachment of territory from a special charter school district must be filed with the governing body of the special charter district and a certified copy thereof must be sent to each district affected and to the county board of school trustees of the county in which the county superintendent has supervision of the district from which the petition seeks to have territory detached, or if territory is being detached from more than one county, to the county board of school trustees of the county in which the county superintendent has supervision over the greatest portion of such territory. A request for such annexation or detachment of territory may be initiated by any district affected by such proposed annexation or detachment of territory by a petition signed by the board of education and by 25% or 1,000 of the legal voters of the district, whichever is less, or by 50% of the legal voters residing in any territory requesting to be annexed or detached. If there are no legal voters residing within the territory proposed to be detached or annexed, then the petition may be signed by 50% of the owners of record of the real estate of the territory.

    Where there is only one school building in an approved operating school district, the building and building site may not be included in any detachment proceeding unless the petition is signed by 2/3 of the eligible voters within the entire district wherein the school is located.
