|
|
| 1 | | AN ACT concerning transportation.
|
| 2 | | Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
|
| 3 | | represented in the General Assembly:
|
| 4 | | Section 5. The Illinois Highway Code is amended by changing |
| 5 | | Section 6-130 as follows:
|
| 6 | | (605 ILCS 5/6-130) (from Ch. 121, par. 6-130)
|
| 7 | | Sec. 6-130. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act |
| 8 | | to the contrary,
no
township road district may continue in |
| 9 | | existence if the roads forming a
part of the district do not |
| 10 | | exceed a total of 100 4 miles in length. For purposes of this |
| 11 | | Section, the roads forming a part of a township road district |
| 12 | | include those roads maintained by the district, regardless of |
| 13 | | whether or not those roads are owned by the township. On the
|
| 14 | | first Tuesday in April of 1975, or of any subsequent year next |
| 15 | | succeeding
the reduction of a township road system to a total |
| 16 | | mileage of 100 4 miles or
less, each such township road |
| 17 | | district shall, by operation of law, be
abolished. The roads |
| 18 | | comprising that district at that time shall thereafter
be |
| 19 | | administered by the township board of trustees by contracting |
| 20 | | with the
county, a municipality or a private contractor. The |
| 21 | | township board of trustees
shall assume all taxing authority of |
| 22 | | a township road district abolished under
this Section.
