    (65 ILCS 5/8-2-9.1)  (from Ch. 24, par. 8-2-9.1)
    Sec. 8-2-9.1. Budget officer. Every municipality with a
population of less than 500,000 (except special charter
municipalities having a population in excess of 50,000) that
has adopted this Section 8-2-9.1 and Sections 8-2-9.2 through
8-2-9.10 by a two-thirds majority vote of those members of the
corporate authorities then holding office shall have a budget
officer who shall be designated by the mayor or president, with
the approval of the corporate authorities. In municipalities
operating under the commission form of government, the
commissioner of accounts and finances shall designate the
budget officer, with the approval of the council or board of
trustees, as the case may be. In municipalities with a
managerial form of government, the municipal manager shall
designate the budget officer. The budget officer shall take an
oath and post a bond as provided in Section 3.1-10-25. The
budget officer may hold another municipal office, either
elected or appointed (including, but not limited to, the office
of mayor or president in municipalities with a population under
10,000), and may receive compensation for both offices except
when a mayor or president in a municipality with a population
under 10,000 is also the budget officer. Article 10 of this
Code shall not apply to an individual serving as the budget
officer. The budget officer shall serve at the pleasure of the
mayor or municipal manager, as the case may be.
