From an almost standing start two months ago, IL HB-1390 (PRB-1 integration into the Illinois Municipal Code) was taken off the shelf and has now been passed by both Illinois General Assembly Houses. In the house it passed 106 to 10 with two absent, and it passed in the senate yesterday with 57 to zero (two not voting). The relatively short deliberation time and large vote margins are unusual for the IL General Assembly.

I understand Governor Quinn will sign HB-1390 into law sometime in the middle or latter part of June. The amended law will take effect immediately when it is signed. Arrangements for a small celebration in Springfield are underway.

- Dick, W9GIG
