When will Boone County comply with this act?  See the actual legal citation below—should Boone County be required to have this information posted right now?

Cal Skinner has answered my question—there is a roll-in to the requirement for each government unit as their respective fiscal year begins.  Thus the date for Belvidere Township is April 1, for Belvidere School District 100 is July 1, and Boone County government is December 1.
