Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS)
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 805/13.3) (from Ch. 96 1/2, par. 6326)
Sec. 13.3.
(a) The board of each forest preserve district organized
under this Act shall fix a fiscal year for the district. The board shall,
within or before the first quarter of each fiscal year, adopt an annual
appropriation ordinance appropriating such sums of money as may be required
to defray all necessary expenses and liabilities of the district to be paid
or incurred during the fiscal year.
(b) The failure of the board to adopt an annual appropriation ordinance
or to otherwise comply with the provisions of this Section shall not affect
the validity of any tax levy of the forest preserve district. The annual
appropriation ordinance for any fiscal year need not be intended or
required to be in support of or in relation to any tax levy made during that fiscal year.
(c) Nothing in this Act shall be construed as requiring any forest
preserve district to change or as preventing any forest preserve district
from changing from a cash basis of financing to a surplus or deficit basis
of financing, or as requiring any forest preserve district to change or as
preventing any forest preserve district from changing its system of accounting.
(d) Any forest preserve district that determines to change its fiscal
year may adopt an annual appropriation ordinance for a transition period of
more or less than 12 months as may be necessary to effect such change, and
appropriations made for such transition period shall terminate with the
close of such period.
