They want to implement the following: Limit the Prevailing Wage Act - Prohibit Municipal Employees from Serving on the Governing Board - Ensure Municipal Majority on Pension Boards - Reform Pensions for Current Public Safety Employees - Prohibit Municipal Employees from Serving on the Governing Board. Allow Local Government Quick‐Take Authority Municipalities should be allowed to use quick‐take authority to acquire land for specific purposes without being required to obtain a permit.  Remove the Referendum Requirement for Real Estate Transfer Tax. Allow municipalities to enact or increase a real estate transfer tax without a referendum. Repeal the Illinois Workers on Public Works Act. The Act currently requires the use of Illinois firms for public works projects.
