Illinois Compiled Statutes
Information maintained by the Legislative Reference Bureau Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide. Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

Sec. 6-13001.
Bonds to pay claims against counties of 180,000 to
200,000. Any county having a population of not less than 180,000 and not
more than 200,000 is authorized to issue bonds at any time and from time to
time prior to January 1, 1954 for the purpose of paying claims against such
county heretofore or hereafter duly audited and allowed. Such bonds may be
issued in an amount, including existing indebtedness, in excess of any
statutory limitation as to debt, but not to exceed $400,000 nor the
constitutional limitation, without submitting the proposition of issuing
the bonds or the levying of a tax to pay the same to the voters of said county.

Sec. 6-13002.
Resolution establishing validity of claims.
Before any
such county avails itself of the provisions of this Division, the county
board shall examine and consider the claims proposed to be paid and, if it
appears that such claims were authorized and duly audited and allowed for
corporate purposes, it shall adopt a resolution so declaring and set forth
and describe in detail such claims; the adoption of such resolution shall
establish the validity of such claims.

55 ILCS 5/6-13003
(55 ILCS 5/6-13003) (from Ch. 34, par. 6-13003)
Sec. 6-13003.
Maturity of bonds; tax.
All bonds issued under
the provisions of this Division shall mature within 20 years from their
date and bear interest at a rate not to exceed the maximum rate authorized
by the Bond Authorization Act, as amended at the time of the making of the
contract, payable annually or semi-annually, and may be sold as the county
board may direct at not less than par and accrued interest, and the
proceeds derived from the sale thereof shall be used solely and only for
the payment of such claims, or the bonds may be exchanged par for par for
such claims.
Before or at the time of issuing any such bonds, the county board shall
provide by resolution for the collection of a direct annual tax upon all
the taxable property within such county sufficient to pay and discharge the
principal of any such bonds at maturity, and to pay the interest thereon as
it falls due. A certified copy of such resolution shall be filed in the
office of the county clerk, as tax extension officer of said county, and he
shall extend the tax therein provided for each of the years while any of
such bonds are outstanding. Such tax shall be in addition to any and all
other county taxes now or hereafter authorized within the Constitutional
limitation. Statutory tax limitations applicable to the county shall not
apply to the levy of taxes for the payment of interest or principal of any
bonds issued under this Division.
With respect to instruments for the payment of money issued under this
Section or its predecessor either before, on, or after the effective date
of Public Act 86-4, it is and always has been the intention of the General
Assembly (i) that the Omnibus Bond Acts are and always have been
supplementary grants of power to issue instruments in accordance with the
Omnibus Bond Acts, regardless of any provision of this Division or "An Act
to authorize counties having a population of not less than 180,000 and not
more than 200,000 to issue bonds for the payment of claims", approved May
25, 1953, that may appear to be or to have been more restrictive than those
Acts, (ii) that the provisions of this Section or its predecessor are not a
limitation on the supplementary authority granted by the Omnibus Bond Acts,
and (iii) that instruments issued under this Section or its predecessor
within the supplementary authority granted by the Omnibus Bond Acts are not
invalid because of any provision of this Division or "An Act to authorize
counties having a population of not less than 180,000 and not more than
200,000 to issue bonds for the payment of claims", approved May 25, 1953,
that may appear to be or to have been more restrictive than those Acts.

funded by reason of the issue of such bonds; and all bonds issued hereunder
shall be valid obligations of the issuing county.
