(20 ILCS 805/805-537)
Sec. 805-537. Conservation Police Officer quotas prohibited. The Department may not require a Conservation Police Officer to issue a specific number of citations within a designated period of time. This prohibition shall not affect the conditions of any federal or State grants or funds awarded to the Department and used to fund traffic enforcement programs.
The Department may not, for purposes of evaluating a Conservation Police Officer's job performance, compare the number of citations issued by the Conservation Police Officer to the number of citations issued by any other Conservation Police Officer who has similar job duties. Nothing in this Section shall prohibit the Department from evaluating a Conservation Police Officer based on the Conservation Police Officer's points of contact. For the purposes of this Section, "points of contact" means any quantifiable contact made in the furtherance of the Conservation Police Officer's duties, including, but not limited to, the number of traffic stops completed, arrests, written warnings, and crime prevention measures. Points of contact shall not include either the issuance of citations or the number of citations issued by a Conservation Police Officer.
