Illinois Statutes Chapter 110. Higher Education § 805/5-12. Defective design or construction; costs of corrections; damages

§ 5-12. In the event the Capital Development Board determines that a facility previously provided for a community college under this Article was defectively designed or constructed, the cost of any necessary corrective work shall be fully funded by monies appropriated pursuant to the General Obligation Bond Act. In such an instance, the community college shall not be required to provide any portion of the cost of the corrective work.

Should a community college district recover damages against any party responsible for the defective design or construction of a community college facility, the community college district shall reimburse the State of Illinois for any funds provided by the State to correct building defects.

No provision of this Section shall preclude or delay litigation by a community college district to recover damages for such defective design or construction from the party or parties responsible for same.
