(65 ILCS 5/11-84-8) (from Ch. 24, par. 11-84-8)
Sec. 11-84-8.
If a special tax for the construction or repair of a sidewalk
is annulled by the corporate authorities or set aside by any court, a new
ordinance may be passed and a new tax may be made and returned. This power
to pass a new ordinance providing for a new tax exists only when (1) the
prior ordinance was passed under "An Act to provide additional means for
the construction of sidewalks in cities, towns and villages," approved
April 15, 1875, as amended, or under this Division 84, and (2) when the
prior ordinance was merely defective but not void.
The proceedings therefor shall be the same as in the first instance, and
all parties in interest shall have like rights and like powers in relation
to any subsequent tax as are hereby given in relation to the first tax. No
special tax shall be levied for work already done under a prior ordinance,
unless it appears that the work was done in good faith, by the
municipality, or under contract duly let and executed, pursuant to an
ordinance providing that the sidewalk should be paid for by special tax.
