AI Summary

SB3293 Summary

  • Requires units of local government and school districts in counties with 100,000+ population to maintain websites posting building permit/zoning variance procedures, lobbying contracts, bidding rules, contracts worth $25,000+, vendor campaign contributions, and vendor-employee relationship disclosures for the current calendar year within 90 days of enactment.

  • Allows residents to file mandamus or injunction actions in circuit court to compel compliance with posting requirements, with courts authorized to impose penalties and award reasonable attorney fees and costs.

  • Requires all posted records to remain on the entity's website in perpetuity and prohibits home rule units from adopting less restrictive posting requirements than those established in the bill.

  • Exempts the bill from State Mandates Act reimbursement requirements, meaning implementation costs are not reimbursable by the state.

  • Takes effect immediately upon becoming law with a severability clause for individual provisions.
