Effective January 1, 2012, Public Act 97-0609 became law which amends the Illinois Open Meetings Act and the Illinois Pension Code and establishes new requirements for Illinois public bodies. The law concerns participation in the Illinois Municipal Retirement Fund (IMRF).

Among the law’s requirements are the following:

• All IMRF employers must post, within 6 days of the approval of a budget, the total compensation package for each employee having a total compensation package that exceeds $75,000 per year; and
• Any IMRF employer that approves an employee’s total compensation package equal to or in excess of $150,000 per year must post on its website, at least 6 days before the approval, the total compensation package for that employee.

Total compensation package for purposes of the Act means “payment by the employer to the employee for salary, health insurance, a housing allowance, a vehicle allowance, a clothing allowance, bonuses, loans, vacation days granted, and sick days granted.”

The Village of Elk Grove has elected to provide employee compensation information for all of its employees regardless of salary level.

Effective January 1, 2021, Public Act 101-0504  requires IMRF employers to include a link to the Employer Cost and Participation Information page posted on the IMRF website.
