AI Summary
This bill amends the Illinois Municipal Code by adding a new section that requires municipalities to create a dedicated account for funds received from insurers for ambulance or fire services. Specifically, the municipality must set aside 25% of these insurance reimbursement funds in a separate account, and these funds can only be used for purchasing and maintaining emergency response vehicles such as ambulances and fire engines. The purpose of this legislation appears to be ensuring that a portion of insurance payments for emergency services are directly reinvested into the municipal emergency response infrastructure, helping local governments maintain and upgrade their critical life-saving vehicle fleets. By mandating this specific allocation, the bill aims to improve the quality and reliability of emergency medical and fire services at the municipal level.
