Illinois HB1299 amends the Illinois Pension Code to correct a technical error in the firefighters' pension fund provision.

Illinois HB1299 makes a technical change to the Illinois Pension Code, specifically correcting a redundancy in the language of Section 4-101 concerning the creation of firefighters' pension funds in municipalities. The bill ensures that the language accurately reflects the duties of city councils or boards of trustees in establishing and administering these funds for firefighters and their dependents. The change does not alter the substantive requirements or benefits of the pension fund but aims to improve the clarity and precision of the legal text.
