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.
(70 ILCS 2805/44) (from Ch. 42, par. 447.8)
Sec. 44. Public hearing and second resolution. At the time and place fixed in the specified notice for the
public hearing, the committee of local improvements shall meet and hear the
representations of any person desiring to be heard on the
subject of the necessity for the proposed improvement, the
nature thereof or the cost as estimated. The district's
engineer may revise the plans, specifications or estimate of
cost at any time prior to the committee's adoption of a
resolution recommending passage of an ordinance as
hereinafter set forth. The committee may adopt a second or
further resolution abandoning the proposed scheme or
adhering thereto, or changing, altering or modifying the
extent, nature, kind, character and estimated cost, provided
the change does not increase the estimated cost of the
improvement to exceed 20% of the estimate set forth in the
mailed notice of the public hearing without a further public
hearing pursuant to a new mailed notice given in like manner
as the first. Thereupon, if the proposed improvement is not
abandoned, the committee shall have an ordinance prepared
therefor to be submitted to the board. This ordinance shall
prescribe the nature, character, locality and description of
the improvement and shall provide whether the improvement
shall be made wholly or in part by special assessment or
special taxation of benefited property and may provide that
plans and specifications for the proposed improvement be
made part of the ordinance by reference to plans and specifications
on file in the office of the district's
engineer or to plans and specifications adopted or published
by the State of Illinois or any political subdivision or
agency thereof. If the improvement is to be paid in part
only by special assessment or special taxation, the
ordinance shall so state. If the improvement requires the
taking or damaging of property, the ordinance shall so
state, and the proceedings for making just compensation
therefor shall be as described in Sections 9-2-14 through
9-2-37 of the Illinois Municipal Code, as now or hereafter amended.
