Guidance for Public Act 94-1019
On July 10, 2006, Governor Rod R. Blagojevich
signed Senate Bill 2795 into law, creating Public Act 94-1019.
Public Act 94-1019 allows new options for school district reorganization
that have not been available in the past, while retaining current
existing options, and standardizes the reorganization process
from petition requirements to referendum vote. Public Act 94-1019
also eliminates duplicate sections of the School Code by consolidating
four of the school district reorganization School Code Articles
(Articles 7A, 11A, 11B, and 11D) into a new Article 11E.
The State Board of Education has developed
the following documents to help school districts and local
citizens interested
in investigating school district reorganization options under
new Article 11E. A link to Public Act 94-1019 is also included
below.
