Each single-occupancy restroom shall be outfitted with exterior signage that marks the single-occupancy restroom as a restroom and does not indicate any specific gender. (d) During any inspection of a place of public accommodation or public building by a health officer or health inspector, the health officer or health inspector may inspect the place of public accommodation or public building to determine whether it complies with this Section. (e) The Department of Public Health shall adopt rules to implement this Section. (Source: P.A. 101-165, eff. 1-1-20.)
