contracts. Except as otherwise provided in Section 9-2-113
of the Illinois Municipal Code, as now or hereafter amended, within 6
months after judgment of confirmation of any special assessment or
special tax levied in pursuance of this Act has been entered,
if there is no appeal perfected, or other stay of
proceedings by a court having jurisdiction, or in case the
judgment for the condemnation of any property for any such
improvement, or the judgment of confirmation as to any
property is appealed from, then, if the petitioner files in
