55 ILCS 5/ Counties Code.

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.

Upon a petition signed by one

purposes under the provisions of this Division, being presented to the

so authorized in such county be discontinued, the county board shall adopt

are in favor thereof such proposition shall be deemed adopted and such tax
be discontinued in such county. In case any funds remain to the credit of
the county fair fund, after such a tax has been discontinued, and the
county fair in such county has also been discontinued and no outstanding
indebtedness exists against such county fair, such remaining funds shall be
paid into the general fund for county purposes in the county treasury.
