Sec. 1-7-2. Whenever in this Code any provision thereof is |
based upon the
number of inhabitants, the number of inhabitants |
of the municipality shall
be determined by reference to the |
latest census taken by authority of the
United States or this |
state, or of that municipality. It is the duty of the
Secretary |
of State, upon the publication of any state or United States
|
census or the certification of any municipal census referenced |

partial census is conducted pursuant to Section 1-7-1, the |
Secretary of State shall certify the total number of |
inhabitants of the municipality as the number reflected by the |
last complete census of the municipality adjusted by the net |
increase or decrease reflected by the partial census. And the |
several courts in this state shall take judicial
notice of the |
population of any municipality, as the population appears
from |
the latest federal, state, or municipal census so taken , |
