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 5/9-2-79

(65 ILCS 5/9-2-79) (from Ch. 24, par. 9-2-79)

Sec. 9-2-79.

The collector receiving such a warrant shall give notice
thereof within 10 days by publishing a notice once each week for 2
successive weeks in one or more newspapers published in the municipality,
or, if no newspaper is published therein, then in one or more newspapers
with a general circulation within the municipality.  In municipalities with
less than 500 population in which no newspaper is published, publication
may instead be made by posting a notice in 3 prominent places within the
municipality. This notice may be substantially in the following form:

"SPECIAL ASSESSMENT NOTICE

Special Warrant, No. ....

Notice:  Publication is hereby given that the (here insert title of court)
has rendered judgment for a special assessment (or special tax) upon
property benefited by the following improvement: (here describe the
character and location of the improvement in general terms) as will more
fully appear from the certified copy of the judgment on file in my office;
that the warrant for the collection of this assessment (or special tax) is
in my possession.  All persons interested are hereby notified to call and
pay the amount assessed at the collector's office (here insert location of
office) within 30 days from the date hereof.

Dated (insert date).

.... (Collector)."

When such an assessment or special tax is levied to be paid in
installments, the notice shall contain also the amount of each installment,
the rate of interest deferred installments bear, and the date when payable.
