HB3842

TOWNSHIP CD-POLICE PROTECTION

Complete·8/15/25

Illinois HB3842 allows township boards to establish special police districts for police protection in unincorporated areas of townships in counties.

Illinois HB3842 amends the Township Code to allow township boards in counties with populations over 1,000,000 to declare unincorporated areas as special police districts. This enables the boards to contract with municipalities or the county for police protection. Funds for these districts cannot exceed 0.10% of the value of taxable property and cannot be used for red light cameras, speed cameras, or automatic license plate readers. The act takes effect immediately upon becoming law.
