65 ILCS 5/ Illinois Municipal Code.

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 5/11-91-2) (from Ch. 24, par. 11-91-2)

Sec. 11-91-2.

Except in cases where the deed, or other instrument,
dedicating a street or alley, or part thereof, has expressly provided for a
specific devolution of the title thereto upon the abandonment or vacation
thereof, whenever any street or alley, or any part thereof, is vacated
under or by virtue of any ordinance of any municipality, the title to the
land included within the street or alley, or part thereof, so vacated,
vests in the then owners of the land abutting thereon, in the same
proportions and to the same extent, as though the street or alley has been
dedicated by a common law plat (as distinguished from a statutory plat) and
as though the fee of the street or alley had been acquired by the owners as
a part of the land abutting on the street or alley.

65 ILCS 5/11-91.1-3

(65 ILCS 5/11-91.1-3) (from Ch. 24, par. 11-91.1-3)

Sec. 11-91.1-3.

In lieu of the actual moving expenses heretofore authorized to be paid,
the municipality may pay any person who moves or discontinues his business
or farm operation, who elects to accept such payment, a fixed relocation
payment in an amount equal to the average annual net earnings of the
business or the farm operation, or $5,000, whichever is the lesser. In the
case of a business, no payment shall be made unless the municipality is
satisfied that the business (1) cannot be relocated without a substantial
loss of its existing patronage, and (2) is not part of a commercial
enterprise having at least one other establishment not being acquired for
highway purposes which is engaged in the same or similar business. The term
"average annual net earnings" means one-half of any net earnings of the
business or farm operation, before Federal, State and local income taxes,
during the two taxable years immediately preceding the taxable year in
which such business or farm operation moves from the real property being
acquired for such project, and includes any compensation paid by the
business or farm operation to the owner, his spouse or his dependents
during such two year period.
