Summary
The bill amends the Illinois Drainage Code to cap compensation for drainage district commissioners. Commissioners may be paid up to $30 for each day they actually work, or a fixed monthly amount set by the county board that cannot exceed $30 times the number of business days in the month, plus reimbursement for travel and other necessary expenses. The new rules apply only to commissioners whose terms begin after the law takes effect.
