Bill > SB1592

This bill amends the Illinois Vehicle Code to require third-party delivery services to use only non-carbon emitting modes of transportation (such as electric bicycles, electric scooters, or other zero-emission vehicles) when delivering goods from stores or restaurants, starting January 1, 2030. The requirement does not apply to deliveries that require travel of 15 miles or more. A third-party delivery service that violates this requirement can be subject to a business offense with a fine up to $1,000. The bill also prevents home rule municipalities from creating local regulations that conflict with this new requirement. The term "third-party delivery service" is defined by reference to the Fair Food and Retail Delivery Act, which likely means services like DoorDash, Uber Eats, or Grubhub. The goal of the legislation appears to be reducing carbon emissions from local delivery services by mandating the use of environmentally friendly transportation methods for shorter-distance deliveries.
