Summary — HB 3867 (104th General Assembly, 2025-2026)

Title: Relating to roads; prescribing an effective date.
Primary sponsor: Rep. Tony M. McCombie
Introduced: February 18, 2025 (filed Feb 14, 2025)
Status (most recent): In committee upon adjournment (06/28/2025)
Effective date (if enacted): July 1, 2025

Main purpose

HB 3867 is a single-purpose appropriation bill that directs a one-time grant of state bond proceeds to support capital needs of a local nonprofit. Specifically, it would appropriate $3,500,000 from the Build Illinois Bond Fund to the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO) for a grant to the Family YMCA of Northwest Illinois to pay for the purchase of a building and other capital improvements.

Key provisions

  • Appropriates $3,500,000 (or so much as may be necessary) from the Build Illinois Bond Fund.
  • Directs the appropriation to the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity.
  • Authorizes DCEO to provide a grant to the Family YMCA of Northwest Illinois for:
    • Costs associated with purchasing a building, and
    • Other capital improvements (not further detailed in the bill text).
  • Sets the statute’s effective date as July 1, 2025.

Note: The bill text does not specify additional conditions, matching requirements, reporting obligations, location details of the property, or timelines for expenditure; such details would be determined by DCEO policies or subsequent legislative language if added.

Who is affected

  • Direct beneficiary: Family YMCA of Northwest Illinois (recipient of the grant).
  • State fiscal picture: $3.5 million in Build Illinois Bond Fund resources would be allocated for this purpose — reducing available bond-funded resources for other projects.
  • Local community: Potential beneficiaries include local residents who use YMCA programs and services if the funding enables facility acquisition and improvements that expand or preserve services.
  • DCEO: Responsible for administering the grant.

Fiscal and policy implications

  • One-time appropriation of $3.5 million from the Build Illinois Bond Fund (a capital/bond-backed funding source).
  • No recurring spending is specified in the bill text.
  • The bill does not include detailed oversight, performance metrics, or matching requirements; administrative rules or grant agreements would likely govern implementation.

Legislative timeline / next steps

  • Filed with Clerk: Feb 14, 2025; first reading Feb 18, 2025.
  • Referred to Rules, Transportation, Elections committees at various points.
  • Read first time: Mar 27, 2025.
  • Latest recorded status: In committee upon adjournment (Jun 28, 2025).
  • If revived and advanced, the bill would need committee approval, passage by both legislative chambers, and the Governor’s signature to become law; it would take effect July 1, 2025, as written.
