Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

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.

Sec. 11-74.2-18.

The revenue bonds issued pursuant to this Division shall
be sold to the highest and best bidder at not less than their par value and
accrued interest. The municipality shall, from time to time as bonds are to
be sold, advertise for proposals to purchase the bonds. Each such
advertisement may be published in such newspapers and journals as the
corporate authorities may determine but must be published at least once in
a newspaper having a general circulation in the municipality at least 10
days prior to the date of the opening of the bids. The municipality may
reserve the right to reject any and all bids and readvertise for bids.
Revenue bonds issued solely for the purpose of financing a commercial
project may, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, be
sold at private sale without advertisement at not less than par and accrued
interest.

The bonds may be issued without submitting any proposition to the
electorate by referendum or otherwise.
Any bonds issued under this Section as limited bonds as defined in Section 3
of
the Local Government Debt Reform Act shall comply with the requirements of the
Bond Issue Notification Act.
