AI Summary

This bill amends the Illinois Civil Administrative Code by creating a new grant program administered by the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO). The program will provide financial assistance to local government units specifically for addressing problematic commercial buildings that pose risks to public health and safety. These grants can be used to demolish or repair commercial structures that are considered detrimental due to conditions such as dilapidation, obsolescence, severe deterioration, or failure to meet minimum building code standards. By providing this funding, the bill aims to help local governments improve urban infrastructure, remove potential safety hazards, and potentially revitalize areas with aging or neglected commercial properties.
