115 ILCS 5/21: Inapplicability of State Mandates Act.

The General Assembly finds that this Act imposes additional duties on local educational employers which can be carried out by existing staff and procedures at no appreciable net cost increase. The increased additional annual net costs resulting from the enactment of this Act would be less than $50,000, in the aggregate, for all local educational employers affected by this Act, and reimbursements of local educational employers is not required of the State under The State Mandates Act, by reason of the exclusions specified in clauses (2) and (5) of subsection (a) of Section 8 of that Act.
