AN ORDINANCE
CREATING CHAPTER 10.25, ENTITLED
"SYNTHETIC ALTERNATIVE DRUGS,"
OF THE ELGIN MUNICIPAL CODE, 1976, AS AMENDED
WHEREAS, the City of Elgin is a home rule unit pursuant to Article VII Section 6 of the
Illinois Constitution; and
WHEREAS, as a home rule unit the City of Elgin may exercise any power and perform
any function pertaining to its government and affairs including, but not limited to, the power to
regulate for the protection of the public health, safety, morals and welfare; and
WHEREAS, 65 ILCS 5/11-20-5 authorizes the City of Elgin to implement regulations
that are necessary or expedient for the promotion of the public health and welfare; and
WHEREAS, the City of Elgin has encountered an increase in the possession, distribution,
sale, and consumption within its corporate boundaries of products containing compounds
originally designed as synthetic alternatives (i.e., synthetic cannabinoids, synthetic stimulants,
and synthetic psychedelic/hallucinogens) to prohibited controlled substances such as
tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), cathinone, methcathinone, MDMA and MDEA; and
• WHEREAS, the City of Elgin finds that products containing synthetic cannabinoids,
synthetic stimulants, and synthetic psychedelic/hallucinogens are being purchased for
recreational use as an alternative to controlled substances banned at the Federal, State, and local
levels; and
WHEREAS, the City of Elgin finds that products containing synthetic cannabinoids,
synthetic stimulants, and synthetic psychedelic/hallucinogens are particularly attractive to
children and young adults due to their availability in small amounts at neighborhood stores at
minimal costs, and due to the names being given to these substances which are intended to
appeal to children and young adults; and
WHEREAS, the Drug Enforcement Administration (''DEA") has determined that the
consumption of synthetic cannabinoids have adverse health effects such as agitation, anxiety,
nausea, vomiting, tachycardia, elevated blood pressure, tremors, seizures, hallucinations,
paranoid behavior and non-responsiveness; and
WHEREAS, the DEA has determined that consumption of synthetic stimulants affect
alertness and have been linked to severe psychotic episodes, increased heart rates, panic attacks,
and hallucinations; and
WHEREAS, the American Association of Poison Control Centers has reported that in
2011 there were more than 6,900 synthetic cannabinoid-related calls to poison control centers in
2011, and more than 6,100 reports of cathinone or "bath salt" abuse; and
WHEREAS, the City of Elgin deems it necessary and desirable to prohibit the sale,
• delivery, possession, use and manufacture of products containing synthetic cannabinoids,
synthetic stimulants, and synthetic psychedelic/hallucinogens in order to protect the public and
abate a public nuisance; and
WHEREAS, the Corporate Authorities of the City of Elgin have determined that it is in
the best interests of the City of Elgin and its residents to amend the Elgin Municipal Code to
implement regulations relative to the sale, delivery, possession, use and manufacture of such
synthetic products as hereinafter set forth:
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF ELGIN, ILLINOIS:
Section 1. That Title 10 of the Elgin Municipal Code, 1976, as amended, entitled "Public
Peace, Morals and Welfare," be and is hereby amended by creating Chapter 10.26, entitled,
