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.

    Sec. 255-5. Transfer from road and bridge fund. Whenever the road and bridge fund of any township in a county with a population of 50,000 or more contains a balance no longer needed for road and bridge purposes, occasioned by the fact that the township no longer has any roads or bridges under its jurisdiction, the voters of the township at an annual township meeting or at a special township meeting called for the purpose may, by resolution by a majority vote of the voters present and voting on the resolution, transfer the balance to the general township fund or to any other township fund or funds. For a period of one year after the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 92nd General Assembly, the voters of a township at an annual township meeting or at a special township meeting called for the purpose may, by resolution by a majority vote of the voters present and voting on the resolution, distribute funds from the road and bridge fund to any township fund used for construction or maintenance of sewage or water treatment facilities.
