(70 ILCS 605/4-9) (from Ch. 42, par. 4-9)
Sec. 4-9.
Single
commissioner.
Whenever the drains, levees or other work for the construction of which
the district was organized are completed, then the appointing authority
may, upon the petition of adult landowners owning a majority of the area
embraced in the district, dispense with 2 commissioners, and the appointing
authority shall thereafter appoint for such district a single commissioner,
who shall hold office for a term expiring on the first Tuesday in September
of the third year following his appointment and until his successor is
appointed and has qualified, and such single commissioner shall perform the
duties and be vested with and exercise the powers imposed upon
commissioners generally. Whenever, upon the petition of one or more
landowners in such district, it appears to the appointing authority that
additional work may be necessary in such district, or for other good cause
shown, the appointing authority shall appoint 2 additional commissioners in
the manner provided by Section 4-10 so as to make a total of 3
commissioners for the district.
