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.

(65 ILCS 5/11-97-2) (from Ch. 24, par. 11-97-2)

Sec. 11-97-2.

The corporate authorities of any municipality, whether
incorporated under the general law or a special charter, may lay out,
establish, open, alter, widen, extend, grade, pave, or otherwise improve
and maintain one or more driveways from the corporate limits of the
municipality to parks owned by the municipality outside its corporate
limits. The cost of these driveways may be paid out of any fund in the
municipal treasury, acquired under the authority of law for park purposes.
The corporate authorities may acquire the land necessary for this purpose
by purchase, legacy or gift, or in case the land cannot be so acquired,
they may acquire it by condemnation in the manner provided for the exercise
of the right of eminent domain under the Eminent Domain Act.
