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.

Such petition shall contain (i) a statement that the board of local improvements or the committee on local improvements of such municipality is considering the making of a local improvement to be paid for by special assessment or by special tax and that the local improvement will benefit property not within the corporate limits of such municipality but contiguous to such local improvement; (ii) description of the extent, nature, kind, character and (when an estimate of the cost thereof is required under the provisions of Division 2 of this Article) the estimated cost of the proposed local improvement; (iii) a description of the lots, blocks, tracts, or parcels of property not within such municipality which the corporate authorities determine may be charged under this Division 4 with any part of the cost for making such local improvement, together with the name and address of the person or persons to whom the tax bill was sent for general taxes on each such lot, block, tract or parcel for the last preceding year; and (iv) a statement of the time and place of the public hearing, if any, to be held on such local improvement by the board of local improvements or the committee on local improvements.

The board of local improvements or the committee on local improvements shall give to each person to whom such summons is issued notice of the time and place of the public hearing on such local improvement in the same manner as such notice is given to persons with respect to property within such municipality, all in accordance with the applicable provisions of Division 2 or Division 3 of this Article. Any person to whom such summons is issued shall have the right to appear and be heard at such public hearing in accordance with the provisions of Division 2 or Division 3 of this Article, and the circuit court shall upon application of such municipality, enter an order staying further proceedings on such petition filed pursuant to this Division 4 pending the filing of and hearing on the petition contemplated by Division 2 or Division 3 of this Article, and shall consolidate for hearing by the court such petition filed under Division 2 or Division 3 of this Article with such petition filed under Division 4 of this Article.
