Illinois Compiled Statutes
Information maintained by the Legislative Reference Bureau 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.
MUNICIPALITIES (65 ILCS 5/) Illinois Municipal Code. 65 ILCS 5/11-71-2
(65 ILCS 5/11-71-2) (from Ch. 24, par. 11-71-2)
Sec. 11-71-2.
All bonds issued under authority of this Division 71 shall
bear interest at not more than the greater of (i) the maximum rate
authorized by the Bond Authorization Act, as amended at the time of the
making of the contract, or (ii) 8% per annum and may be sold by the
corporate authorities in such manner as they deem best in the public
interest. However, such bonds shall be sold at such price that the interest
cost of the proceeds therefrom will not exceed the greater of (i) the
maximum rate authorized by the Bond Authorization Act, as amended at the
time of the making of the contract, or (ii) 8% per annum, based on the
average maturity of such bonds, and computed according to standard tables
of bond values. Such bonds shall be payable solely and only from the
revenues to be derived from the operation of any or all of its parking
facilities and shall be secured by a pledge of the revenues of any or all
of its parking facilities, except as otherwise provided in paragraph (c) of
Section 11-71-1.
Such bonds when issued shall have all the qualities of negotiable
instruments under the Law Merchant and the Uniform Commercial Code. Such
bonds may bear such date or dates and may mature at such time or times, not
exceeding 30 years from their date or dates, and may be in such form, carry
such registration privilege, may be payable at such place or places, may be
subject to such terms of redemption, prior to maturity, with or without
premium, as so stated on the face of the bond, and contain such terms and
covenants, all as may be provided by ordinance authorizing the issuance of
such bonds. Such bonds shall be executed by such officers as the corporate
authorities shall designate in the ordinance. Any bonds bearing the
signatures of officers in office at the date of signing thereof shall be
valid and binding for all purposes, notwithstanding that before delivery
thereof any or all such persons whose signatures appear thereon shall cease
to be such officers.
Each such bond shall state upon its face that it is payable solely and
only from the proceeds derived from the operation of the parking facility
or facilities, except as otherwise provided in paragraph (c) of Section
11-71-1, and shall state upon its face that it does not constitute an
obligation of the municipality within the meaning of any constitutional or
statutory limitation or provision.
With respect to instruments for the payment of money issued under this
Section either before, on, or after the effective date of this amendatory
Act of 1989, it is and always has been the intention of the General
Assembly (i) that the Omnibus Bond Acts are and always have been
supplementary grants of power to issue instruments in accordance with the
Omnibus Bond Acts, regardless of any provision of this Act that may appear
to be or to have been more restrictive than those Acts, (ii) that the
provisions of this Section are not a limitation on the supplementary
authority granted by the Omnibus Bond Acts, and (iii) that instruments
issued under this Section within the supplementary authority granted
by the Omnibus Bond Acts are not invalid because of any provision of
this Act that may appear to be or to have been more restrictive than
those Acts.
The amendatory Acts of 1971, 1972 and 1973 are not a limit upon any
municipality which is a home rule unit.

Sec. 11-71-3.
The corporate authorities of any such municipality availing

advertising on parking meters, shall adopt an ordinance describing in a
general way the contemplated project and refer to plans and specifications
therefor, which shall be placed on file in the office of the clerk of such
municipality, and which shall be open for the inspection of the public.
Such ordinance shall state the estimated cost of such project, and the
method or methods of financing such project and the amount or proportion of
cost of such project to be financed by each of such methods. If part or all
of such project is to be financed by means of revenue bonds, the ordinance
also shall fix the amount of the revenue bonds proposed to be issued, the
maturity or maturities, the interest rate, and all details in respect
thereof and shall contain such covenants and restrictions as may be deemed
necessary or advisable by the corporate authorities. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, such ordinance shall contain such provisions
as may be determined by the corporate authorities as to:
(a) The issuance of additional revenue bonds that may thereafter be
issued payable from the revenues derived from the operation of any such
parking facilities and for the payment of the principal and interest upon
such bonds;
(b) The regulation as to the use of any such parking facilities to
assure the maximum use or occupancy thereof;
(c) The kind and amount of insurance to be carried, including use and
occupancy insurance, the cost of which shall be payable only from the
revenues to be derived from the project;
(d) Operation, maintenance, management, accounting and auditing, and the
keeping of records, reports and audits of any such parking facilities;
(e) The obligation of the municipality to maintain the project in good
condition and to operate the same in an economical and efficient manner;
(f) Such other provisions as may be deemed necessary or desirable to
assure a successful and profitable operation of the project and prompt
payment of principal of and interest upon any revenue bonds so authorized.
If any part of such project is to be financed by means of special
assessments or special taxation, any ordinances or other procedures
required under Division 2 of Article 9 of this Code shall be adopted and
followed.
After the ordinance has been adopted and approved, it shall be published
once in a newspaper published and having general circulation in such
municipality, or if there be no such newspaper published in such
municipality, then the ordinance should be posted in at least 5 of the most
public places in such municipality, and shall become effective 10 days
after publication or posting thereof.
