 (from Ch. 24, par. 3.1-15-30)Sec. 3.1-15-30. Minority representation.(a) Whenever the question of  incorporation as a city under  this Code is submitted for adoption to the electors of any territory,  village, incorporated town, or city under special charter, there may be  submitted at the same time for adoption or rejection the question of  minority representation in the city council. The proposition shall be  in the following form:Shall minority representation in the city council be     adopted?(b) If a majority of the votes cast on the question at any election are  for minority representation in the city council, the members of the city  council, except as otherwise provided, thereafter shall be elected as  provided in Section 3.1-15-35.(c) The city council, at least 30 days before the first day fixed  by law for the filing of candidate petitions for the next general municipal  election, shall apportion the city by dividing its population,  as ascertained by an official publication of any national,  state, school, or city census, by any number not less than 2 nor more  than 6. The quotient shall be the ratio of representation in the city  council. Districts shall be formed of contiguous and compact territory  and contain, as near as practicable, an equal number of inhabitants.(d) If a majority of the votes cast on the question at any election are  against minority representation in the city council, the members of the  city council shall be elected as otherwise provided in this Code.(e) At any time after the incorporation of a city under this  Code, on petition of electors equal in number to one-eighth the number  of legal votes cast at the next preceding general municipal election,  the city clerk shall certify  the question of the adoption or  retention of minority representation to the proper election authority  for submission to the electors of that city. The proposition  shall be in the same form as provided in this Section, except  that the word "retained" shall be substituted for the word "adopted"  when appropriate. A question of minority representation, however, shall not be  submitted more than once within 32 months.(f) If the city council of any city adopting minority representation  as provided in this Section has not fixed a ratio of representation and  formed the districts by the time specified in this Section, those acts  may be done by any later city council.  All official acts  done and ordinances passed by a city council  elected at large by the electors of a city that has adopted a  minority representation plan shall be as valid and binding as if the alderpersons   had been elected from districts.

 (from Ch. 24, par. 3.1-15-35)Sec. 3.1-15-35. Alderpersons under minority representation plan. Every  district under a minority representation plan shall be entitled to 3 alderpersons. Alderpersons   shall hold their offices for 4 years and until their successors have  been elected and qualified, except in cities that have adopted a 2 year term  under Section 3.1-10-65. There shall be elected in each district as many alderpersons   as the district is entitled to. In all of these elections for alderpersons, each elector may cast as many votes as there are alderpersons to be  elected in the elector's district, or may distribute his or her votes, or equal  parts of the votes, among the candidates as the elector sees fit. The candidate  highest in votes is elected if only one alderperson is elected; the candidates  highest and next highest in votes are elected if only 2 alderpersons are elected;  and the 3 highest candidates in votes are elected when 3 alderpersons are elected.  Vacancies shall be filled as provided in Sections 3.1-10-50 and 3.1-10-55 by  either interim election or appointment.  An appointment to fill a vacancy shall  be made within 60 days after the vacancy occurs.  The requirement that an  appointment be made within 60 days is an exclusive power and function of the  State and is a denial and limitation under Article VII, Section 6, subsection  (h) of the Illinois Constitution of the power of a home rule municipality to  require that an appointment be made within a different period after the vacancy  occurs.

This Section does not prohibit a city from  voting in favor of a 2 year term for city officers as provided in Section  3.1-10-65. The provisions of the general election law shall govern elections  under this Section.   (Source: P.A. 102-15, eff. 6-17-21.)
