The corporate authorities of every city and village in
the manner provided in this Division 29, may establish and maintain a
program for the care and treatment of persons afflicted with
tuberculosis, including the establishment and maintenance of a public
sanitarium and branches, dispensaries, and other auxiliary institutions
connected therewith within or without the corporate limits of the city
or village, for the use and benefit of the inhabitants of the city or
village for the treatment and care of persons afflicted with
tuberculosis. When, in cities and villages which have a population of
less than 500,000 inhabitants and which maintain a public sanitarium
under the provisions of this Division 29, part of the facilities of the
sanitarium are vacant and therefor not needed for the care and treatment
of tuberculosis inhabitants of such city or village, such vacant
facilities may be used for the care and treatment of such inhabitants
who are convalescent or chronically ill, or both, provided such
facilities shall be separate so that tuberculosis patients shall be
isolated from convalescent or chronically ill patients.
When a program for the care and treatment of persons afflicted with
tuberculosis has been established by a vote of the people in the manner
provided in this Division 29 or in the manner provided by law at the
time of its establishment, the corporate authorities of such a city or
village may levy a tax annually thereafter, without submitting the
question to a vote of the people, not to exceed .025% of the value, as
equalized or assessed by the Department of Revenue, on
all taxable property in such a city or village with a population of less
than 75,000 and not to exceed .05% of the value, as equalized or
assessed by the Department of Revenue, on all taxable
property in such a city or village, with a population of 75,000 or more
but not exceeding 500,000 and not to exceed a rate that will produce,
when extended, the sum of $9,000,000 per year on all taxable property in
such city or village with a population of more than 500,000. Upon the
filing in the office of the county clerk of a duly certified copy of an
ordinance levying such tax the county clerk shall extend such tax in the
manner provided for the extension of city and village taxes.
All taxes specified in this Section or in Sections 11-29-17 through
11-29-22, shall be levied and collected in like manner with the general
taxes of the city or village and shall be known as tuberculosis
sanitarium fund. These taxes shall be in addition to all other taxes
which the city or village is now or hereafter may be authorized to levy
upon all property within the city or village, and shall be in addition,
to the amount authorized to be levied for general purposes as provided
by Section 8-3-1.
The corporate authorities of every city or village which levies an
annual tax for the establishment and maintenance of a program for the
care and treatment of persons afflicted with tuberculosis shall
appropriate from the tuberculosis sanitarium fund and include in the
annual appropriation ordinance such sums of money as may be deemed
necessary to defray all necessary expenses and liabilities in carrying
out the program for the care and treatment of persons afflicted with
tuberculosis.

Sec. 11-29-6.
Immediately after their appointment the directors shall meet
and organize by the election of one of their number as president and one as
secretary and by election of such other officers as they may deem
necessary. They shall adopt such by-laws, rules and regulations for their
own guidance in carrying out the program for the care and treatment of
persons afflicted with tuberculosis and for the operation of the sanitarium
and the branches, dispensaries, and auxiliary institutions and activities
consistent with this Division 29 and the ordinances of the city or village
except that in cities of 500,000 or more population, the board of directors
shall be governed by the provisions of Division 10 of Article 8 in relation
to the letting of contracts and purchase orders in carrying out the program
for the care and treatment of persons afflicted with tuberculosis and of
any such sanitarium, its branches, dispensaries, auxiliary institutions and
activities, and in relation to the powers, functions and authority of the
purchasing agent, the board of standardization and corporate authorities of
such cities.
They shall have the exclusive control of all money collected to the
credit of the tuberculosis sanitarium fund. All money received in carrying
out the program for the care and treatment of persons afflicted with
tuberculosis shall be deposited to the credit of the tuberculosis
sanitarium fund. All money in such fund received from taxes authorized to
be levied by this Division 29 shall be used exclusively to provide care and
treatment for tuberculosis patients. The money in such fund received on
account of care and treatment provided for convalescent or chronically ill
patients or both may be used to provide care and treatment for such
patients. It shall be drawn upon by the proper municipal officer upon the
properly authenticated vouchers of the sanitarium board except that in
cities of 500,000 or more population, vouchers drawn upon such fund
pursuant to the provisions of Division 10 of Article 8 may be accepted by
the city comptroller in payment for purchases made for or services rendered
in the care and treatment of persons afflicted with tuberculosis, without
authentication by the sanitarium board, if the board, or the officer or
employee thereof duly certified under the provisions of Division 10 of
Article 8 certifies that the materials, supplies, commodities or services
to which such vouchers pertain have been received.
The board has the power to purchase or lease ground within or without
the corporate limits of the city or village, and to purchase, lease, or
erect appropriate buildings for the use of the sanitariums, branches,
dispensaries, and other auxiliary institutions and activities connected
therewith with the approval of the corporate authorities. It has the
exclusive control of the construction of the sanitarium building or other
buildings appropriate for its branches, dispensaries, and other auxiliary
institutions and activities in connection with the institution, and of the
supervision, care and custody of the grounds, rooms, or buildings
constructed, leased or purchased for that purpose. The board has the power
to appoint suitable superintendents or matrons or both and all necessary
assistants and other employes, to fix their compensation, and to remove
such appointees. The board in general shall carry out the spirit and intent
of this Division 29 in establishing and maintaining a program for the care
and treatment of persons afflicted with tuberculosis. At least one of the
directors shall visit and examine the sanitarium at least twice each month
and make monthly reports of its condition to the corporate authorities.
In any city which has adopted or hereafter adopts Division 1 of Article
10, all appointments with the exception of superintendents and the
removal of matrons and other assistants shall be made pursuant to the
provisions of that civil service law and not otherwise. But where in any
city persons are occupying any of these positions pursuant to appointment
and certification thereon by the civil service commission of the city made
after examination, those persons shall hold their positions as though duly
appointed after examination under the provisions of the civil service law.
All other matrons and assistants not so appointed after examination shall
have the status of temporary appointees under the civil service law. All
officers and employes engaged in providing care and treatment to persons
afflicted with tuberculosis shall be deemed officers or employes, as the
case may be of the city or village which established the tuberculosis care
and treatment program.

sanitarium building in pursuance of and subject to such authority or
process, but in no event after a cure has been effected. The board of
directors may authorize the managing officer, superintendents, assistants
and other employees and appointees to do such things as may be necessary or
helpful in receiving, detaining and providing care and treatment for such
persons. However, no such persons afflicted with tuberculosis shall be
received, given care and treatment, or kept in the sanitarium or any of the
sanitarium buildings if there shall be any inhabitants of the city or
village afflicted with tuberculosis in need of care and treatment in the
sanitarium. Any commitment, placing or direction to be received, above set

Every sanitarium board established under this Act shall
provide sanitarium care and clinical and follow-up services free for the
benefit of the inhabitants of the city or village which established it,
if they are afflicted with tuberculosis. They shall be entitled to
occupancy, nursing, care, medicines, and attendance according to the
rules and regulations prescribed by the board of directors. The board of
directors may adopt reasonable rules and regulations concerning the use
of the facilities established pursuant to this Act in order to render
the use of these facilities of the greatest benefit to the greatest
number, and the board may exclude from the use of the sanitarium those
inhabitants and other persons who wilfully violate the board's rules and
regulations. The board may not, however, prescribe rules and regulations
which conflict with Section 11-29-8.1 of this Act, and a determination
of whether a person is an inhabitant or resident of the city or village
for purposes of this Act shall be based on Section 11-29-8.1. Except as
authorized and permitted by Section 11-29-7, no person so afflicted with
tuberculosis may be compelled to enter the sanitarium, or any of its
branches, dispensaries, or other auxiliary institutions without first
giving his written consent, or in case of a minor or one under legal
disability, the written consent of the parents or, guardian, as the case may be.
The board upon request or by consent of persons afflicted, or the
legal guardians, or parents thereof, shall extend the
benefits and privileges of the institution, under proper rules and
regulations, into the homes of the persons afflicted with tuberculosis,
shall furnish nurses, instruction, medicines, attendance, and all other
aid necessary to effect a cure, and shall do all things in and about the
treatment and care of persons so afflicted which will have a tendency to
effect a cure of the persons afflicted with tuberculosis and to
eradicate tuberculosis in that city or village, including the discovery
of undiagnosed tuberculosis. No person shall be compelled to undergo an
examination or test for tuberculosis if he or she objects thereto on the ground
that it is contrary to his or her religious convictions, unless there is
probable cause to suspect that he or she is infected with tuberculosis in a
communicable stage.
Boards of directors shall provide out-patient clinical and follow-up
services to tuberculosis patients, in accordance with minimum standards
prescribed therefor, by the director of the Department of Public Health.
The board of directors may make such arrangements and agreements with
public or private health agencies for cooperation and assistance in
providing case-finding services and out-patient clinical and follow-up
services as it considers necessary or desirable.
The board may extend the privileges and use of the sanitarium and
treatment to afflicted persons who reside outside of the city or
village, upon such terms and conditions as the board may prescribe by
its rules and regulations consistent with Section 11-29-8.1.
In cities and villages which have a population of less than 500,000
inhabitants, the board may also extend the privileges and use of the
sanitarium to the inhabitants of such city or village who are afflicted
with chronic pulmonary diseases other than tuberculosis, and inhabitants
who are convalescent or chronically ill, or both, and provide care and
treatment for such persons when part of the facilities of the sanitarium
are vacant and not needed for care and treatment of tuberculosis
inhabitants of such city or village, upon such terms and conditions as
the board may prescribe by its rules and regulations, provided such
facilities shall be separate so that tuberculosis patients shall be
isolated from those afflicted with chronic pulmonary diseases other than
tuberculosis, and those who are convalescent or chronically ill
patients. However, if care and treatment is provided for such persons,
the charge for providing such care and treatment shall not be less than
the actual cost of providing such care and treatment.
The board may use funds secured from taxes levied under the
provisions of this Act in providing sanitarium care of tuberculosis
patients in private or public sanitariums.

Whenever the board of directors recommends, in writing, to
the corporate authorities, the discontinuance of any public tuberculosis
sanitarium, stating in its report the reasons therefor, the corporate
authorities may pass an ordinance for the discontinuance of that public
tuberculosis sanitarium. A board of directors, upon whose recommendation
the corporate authorities have closed the sanitarium, shall continue in
existence and provide out-patient clinical and follow-up services to the
residents of the city or village. The board of directors shall make such
arrangements as are necessary to secure in-patient care for residents of
the city or village in other private or public sanitariums of this State.
Any of the sanitarium equipment, facilities and other property which is
required or useful in providing those services may be retained by the board
of directors and applied to that use. The corporate authorities may use the
remaining facilities for other city or village purposes, may lease them to
public or private agencies, or may sell them. If the tuberculosis
sanitarium facilities are leased to a public or private agency other than
the city or village or are sold, then such leasing or sale must be for a
consideration at least equal to the fair market value or fair rental value.
If the corporate authorities use such facilities for other city or village
purposes, then the use shall be for a consideration acceptable to the board
of directors. Proceeds from the use, leasing or sale of sanitarium
facilities under this Section shall be paid into the Tuberculosis
Sanitarium Fund of the city or village for use as provided in this Act. The
proceeds paid into the Tuberculosis Sanitarium Fund shall be used to pay
the costs of providing the out-patient clinical and follow-up services,
including, but not limited to, the construction and maintenance of an
out-patient clinic and acquisition of equipment therefor. Any balance of
the proceeds from the disposition of the sanitarium facilities remaining
after payment of the costs of out-patient clinical and follow-up services
under this Section may be used to reduce the rate of tax necessary to
provide this in-patient care and the out-patient clinical and follow-up
services.
