Illinois Code § 4

§ 4.

License to operate. After May 1, 2002, it shall be unlawful for any person to open, establish, maintain or operate a swimming facility within this State without first obtaining a license therefor from the Department or, where applicable, from the ordinance health department. Applications for original licenses shall be made on forms furnished by the Department or, where applicable, by an ordinance health department. Each application shall be signed by the applicant and accompanied by an affidavit of the applicant as to the truth of the application. Each application shall contain: the name and address of the applicant, or names and addresses of the partners if the applicant is a partnership, or the name and addresses of the officers if the applicant is a corporation or the names and addresses of all persons having an interest therein if the applicant is a group of individuals, association, or trust; and the location of the swimming facility. A license shall be valid only in the possession of the person to whom it is issued and shall not be the subject of sale, assignment, or other transfer, voluntary, or involuntary, nor shall the license be valid for any premises other than those for which originally issued. Upon receipt of an application for an original license, the Department or, where applicable, the ordinance health department shall inspect such swimming facility to insure compliance with this Act. In no case shall license fees be assessed by both the Department and the ordinance health department. (Source: P.A. 96-1081, eff. 7-16-10; 97-957, eff. 1-1-13.)
