Illinois Statutes 705 ILCS 105/27.5 controls
the collection and distribution of monies by the Circuit Clerk. The
statute provides that counties with a population under 2,000,000 may,
by ordinance, elect not to be subject to this article, and the McLean
County Board finds that said statute imposes an inordinate expense
on the Circuit Clerk and on the citizens of McLean County.
McLean County shall not be subject to the provisions
of 705 ILCS 105/27.5.
