(65 ILCS 5/11-84-8) (from Ch. 24, par. 11-84-8)
Sec. 11-84-8.
If a special tax for the construction or repair of a sidewalk
is annulled by the corporate authorities or set aside by any court, a new
ordinance may be passed and a new tax may be made and returned. This power
to pass a new ordinance providing for a new tax exists only when (1) the
prior ordinance was passed under "An Act to provide additional means for
the construction of sidewalks in cities, towns and villages," approved
April 15, 1875, as amended, or under this Division 84, and (2) when the
prior ordinance was merely defective but not void.
The proceedings therefor shall be the same as in the first instance, and
all parties in interest shall have like rights and like powers in relation
to any subsequent tax as are hereby given in relation to the first tax. No
special tax shall be levied for work already done under a prior ordinance,
unless it appears that the work was done in good faith, by the
municipality, or under contract duly let and executed, pursuant to an
ordinance providing that the sidewalk should be paid for by special tax.

such municipality, for the construction of any public improvement
consisting of the construction of any bridge, subway, elevated way, or
viaduct which may lie partly within the municipality, and partly outside
the municipality and within the township, or consisting of the improvement
of the roadway of any highway or street upon and along which runs the line

(65 ILCS 5/11-85-2) (from Ch. 24, par. 11-85-2)
Sec. 11-85-2.
The corporate authorities of such municipality and the
commissioner of highways in and for such township, in the manner they agree
upon, shall procure (1) detailed plans and specifications of the proposed
improvement, (2) a detailed estimate of the cost thereof prepared by a
competent engineer, showing the total estimated cost of the improvement,
and (3) separate estimates from that engineer of the portions thereof
within and without the municipality. As soon as the corporate authorities
both of the municipality and of the township approve the plans,
specifications, and estimates as a basis for the letting of a contract for
the improvement, and as soon as the proportions of the cost thereof are
agreed upon by the corporate authorities of the municipality and township,
they may proceed jointly to let a contract therefor as provided in this
section.
This contract shall be let only upon competitive bidding, in the manner
provided for the letting of contracts by municipalities for the
constructing of local improvements under the provisions of Article 9,
except that (1) the advertising for bids for the construction of the
proposed improvement shall be authorized and made by the corporate
authorities of both the municipality and the township, (2) bids for the
construction shall be received by those corporate authorities jointly at
the time and place agreed upon and stated in the notice for bids, and (3)
no contract shall be let except by the approval of the corporate
authorities of both the municipality and the township. All contracts shall
be signed and executed by the officials of the municipality and of the
township who may be vested generally, by law or ordinance, with the duty of
the execution of contracts, for and in behalf of the respective bodies, and
all bonds for the performance of a contract shall be made payable to those
corporate bodies jointly.
All consents, agreements, and approvals provided for in this Division 85
shall be by writing and when hereby required to be made or given by a
municipality, shall be made or given by a resolution of the corporate
authorities of the municipality.
