Amends the Elevator Safety and Regulation Act. Provides that any home
rule municipality that has a population of over 80,000 but less than

governing authority and shall have sole jurisdiction superseding any other
department or regulatory body over granting variances for the
construction, installation, operation, inspection, testing, maintenance,
alteration, and repair of any elevator or its associated equipment if the
elevator was installed or permitted under the 2004 edition of ASME A17.1
but was not completed due all or in part to the financial and economic
recession of 2008. Provides that the home rule municipality shall have the
sole authority to determine whether an elevator qualifies under the
amendatory Act. Provides that, once an elevator subject to the amendatory
Act has been fully installed, the home rule municipality shall facilitate
a thorough inspection of the elevator by a licensed State elevator
inspector to verify that the installation of the elevator is complete and
that the elevator is safe and fully functional according to the 2004
edition of ASME A17.1.
