(55 ILCS 5/3-9012)
(from Ch. 34, par. 3-9012)
Sec. 3-9012. Compensation. A State's attorney who serves 2 or more counties shall receive such
compensation from the State Treasury as is provided by law for the State's
attorney of a single county. The State's Attorney shall be paid by the counties such
compensation as may be agreed upon by the county boards within the salary
range prescribed by law applicable to a single county with a population
equal to the combined population of the counties the State's Attorney serves. Unless the
county boards agree upon a lesser amount, the State's Attorney shall be paid the highest
permissible salary within such range. The amount to be paid by the counties
shall be apportioned among them on the basis of their population.
Seventy-five percent (75%) of the amount provided by law to be paid from
the State treasury for the services of the State's attorney in the case of
a single county is payable to each of the counties served by the same
State's attorney, except that the amounts paid to those counties under this
Section in any year may not exceed, in the aggregate, the annual salary
paid to that State's attorney from both county and State funds, in which
case reduction of the State's contribution to each county shall be reduced
proportionately according to population of each participating county.
