Illinois Compiled Statutes 50 ILCS 105 Public Officer Prohibited Activities Act. Section 2a

    (50 ILCS 105/2a) (from Ch. 102, par. 2a)

    Sec. 2a. Township supervisors and trustees. No township supervisor or trustee, during the term of office for which he or she is elected, may accept, be appointed to, or hold any office by the appointment of the board of township trustees unless he or she first resigns from the office of supervisor or trustee or unless the appointment is specifically authorized by law. A supervisor or trustee may, however, serve as a volunteer fireman and receive compensation for that service. Any appointment in violation of this Section is void. Nothing in this Act shall be construed to prohibit an elected township official from holding elected office in another unit of local government as long as there is no contractual relationship between the township and the other unit of local government. This amendatory Act of 1995 is declarative of existing law and is not a new enactment.
