(505 ILCS 5/20) (from Ch. 5, par. 1020)
Sec. 20.
Limitation on power of certain public agencies to impose benefit
assessments or special ad valorem levies. No political subdivision providing
public services such as sewer, water or lights or for non-farm drainage
may impose benefit assessments or special ad valorem levies on land used
for primarily agricultural production within an agricultural area on the
basis of frontage, acreage, or value, unless such benefit assessments or
special ad valorem levies were imposed prior to the formation of the agricultural
area, or unless such service is provided to the landowner on the same basis
as others having the service.
