Please note that the Law Enforcement Mutual Aid Agreement cannot be changed as the same Agreement must be signed by all the participants. It is ILEAS’ goal to get every current member to sign the new Agreement by March 1, 2015. Please review these documents which will guide you through the process. If you, your political leadership or legal counsel have any questions, please contact Mick McAvoy (mmcavoy@ileas.org) or Jim Page (jrpage@ileas.org) at 217-328-3800. Access to Your Agency’s Personalized ILEAS Web Page Every member agency gets access to a password-protected personalized ILEAS web page. This is where you provide data about the resources that you have that might be available to other members in an emergency. You can also apply for authorized special team overtime reimbursements, search the resource database of all ILEAS members, and provide contact information for use during emergencies. If you don’t already have a password, contact the ILEAS office at 217-328-3800 to get a password assigned. Or you can reach out to your Regional Planning Coordinator (RPC). See the Regions tab on the ILEAS home page to find the contact info for your RPC. ILEAS staff will guide you through this process. Once you have signed on, your RPC will guide you through the process of entering your agency’s resource data. National Incident Management (NIMS) The Federal Government will be requiring any agency receiving federal grant funds to have adopted NIMS as its method of managing emergencies. Please contact Mark Griffeth (megriffeth@ileas.org) at 217-328-3800 for more information on how to document your NIMS compliance. Annual Dues In March of 2005, the ILEAS membership unanimously passed a resolution adopting a dues structure. Up to that point, ILEAS was solely funded by Homeland Security grant funds. The conditions of these grants prohibited the expenditure of federal funds for such operational necessities as legal, insurance, auditing and miscellaneous fees. Therefore, the Governing Board asked the membership for dues. There were no dues increases in the ensuing eight years. However, in the May 23, 2013 meeting of the Governing Board, a new dues schedule was adopted. The dues structure adopted at the meeting was as follows: Dues Officers $60 1 - 10 officers (or no full-time officers and part-time only) $120 11 - 40 officers $240 41 - 80 officers $360 81 - 119 officers $480 120+ officers ILEAS will notify your agency when an online invoice is ready and payment is due. You can mail payment to the ILEAS address: ILEAS Administrative Office 1701 E. Main Street Urbana, IL 61802 You can also visit the Member Management System for more information on paying your dues, including the ability to make a payment online via PayPal.
