Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

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.

65 ILCS 5/9-2-115

(65 ILCS 5/9-2-115) (from Ch. 24, par. 9-2-115)

Sec. 9-2-115.

In every assessment proceeding in which the assessment is
divided into installments, the board of local improvements shall state in
the certificate whether or not the improvement conforms substantially to
the requirements of the original ordinance for the construction of the
improvements, and shall make an application to the court to consider and
determine whether or not the facts stated in the certificate are true.
Thereupon the court, upon such an application, shall fix a time and place
for a hearing upon the application, and shall record the application.  The
time of this hearing shall be not less than 15 days after the filing of the
certificate and application.  Public notice shall be given at least twice of
the time and place fixed for that hearing by publishing in a newspaper, in
the same manner and for the same period as provided in this Division 2 for
publishing notice of application for the confirmation of the original
assessment, the publication of this notice to be not more than 30 nor less
than 15 days before the day fixed by the order for that hearing.

At the time and place fixed by the notice or at any time thereafter, the
court shall proceed to hear the application and any objection which may be
filed thereto within the time fixed in the order.  Upon that hearing the
specified certificate of the board of local improvements shall be prima
facie evidence that the matters and things stated are true, but if any part
thereof is controverted by objections duly filed thereto, the court shall
hear and determine the objections in a summary manner and shall enter an
order according to the fact.
