Illinois Compiled Statutes
Information maintained by the Legislative Reference Bureau 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 5/11-130-3) (from Ch. 24, par. 11-130-3)
Sec. 11-130-3.
Whenever the corporate authorities of any municipality
determine to purchase or construct waterworks under the provisions of this
Division 130, they shall have an estimate made of the cost thereof and, by
ordinance, shall provide for the issuance of revenue bonds under the
provisions of this Division 130. The ordinance shall set forth a brief
description of the contemplated purchase or construction, the estimated
cost thereof, the amount, rate of interest, time and place of payment, and
other details in connection with the issuance of the bonds. The bonds shall
bear interest at not more than the maximum rate authorized by the Bond
Authorization Act, as amended at the time of the making of the contract,
payable semi-annually, and shall be payable at such times and places not
exceeding 20 years from their date as shall be prescribed in the ordinance
providing for their issuance. This ordinance shall also declare that a
statutory mortgage lien exists upon the property
so to be purchased or constructed, fix minimum rates for water to be
collected prior to the payment of all of the revenue bonds so issued, and
shall pledge the revenue derived from the operation of the waterworks for
the purpose of paying those bonds and the interest thereon. This pledge
shall definitely fix and determine the amount of revenue which must be set
apart and applied to the payment of the principal of and interest on the
bonds and the proportion of the balance of the revenue which is to be set
aside as a proper and adequate depreciation account. The remainder of the
revenue shall be set aside for the reasonable and proper operation and
maintenance of the waterworks. The rates to be charged for the services
from the waterworks shall be sufficient to provide for the payment of
interest upon all bonds and to create a sinking fund to pay the principal
thereof as and when the bonds become due, to provide for the operation and
maintenance of the system and to provide an adequate depreciation fund.
With respect to instruments for the payment of money issued under this
Section either before, on, or after the effective date of this amendatory
Act of 1989, it is and always has been the intention of the General
Assembly (i) that the Omnibus Bond Acts are and always have been
supplementary grants of power to issue instruments in accordance with the
Omnibus Bond Acts, regardless of any provision of this Act that may appear
to be or to have been more restrictive than those Acts, (ii) that the
provisions of this Section are not a limitation on the supplementary
authority granted by the Omnibus Bond Acts, and (iii) that instruments
issued under this Section within the supplementary authority granted
by the Omnibus Bond Acts are not invalid because of any provision of
this Act that may appear to be or to have been more restrictive than
those Acts.
The amendatory Acts of 1971, 1972 and 1973 are not a limit upon any
municipality which is a home rule unit.

(65 ILCS 5/11-130-4) (from Ch. 24, par. 11-130-4)
Sec. 11-130-4.
Within 10 days after such an ordinance has been passed it
shall be published at least once, with a notice to all persons concerned
stating that the ordinance has been adopted in one or more newspapers
published in the municipality, or, if no newspaper is published therein,
then in one or more newspapers with a general circulation within the
municipality. In municipalities with less than 500 population in which no
newspaper is published, publication may instead be made by posting a notice
in 3 prominent places within the municipality. Such notice shall state that
the municipality contemplates the issuance of the bonds described in the
ordinance, and that any person interested may appear before the corporate
authorities upon a certain date, which shall not be less than 10 days
subsequent to the publication or posting of the ordinance and notice, and
present protests. At this hearing all objections and suggestions shall be
heard, and the corporate authorities shall take such action as they shall
deem proper in the premises.

65 ILCS 5/11-130-5
(65 ILCS 5/11-130-5) (from Ch. 24, par. 11-130-5)
Sec. 11-130-5.
Bonds provided for in this Division 130 shall be issued in
such amounts as may be necessary to provide sufficient funds to pay all
costs of the purchase or construction, including engineering, legal, and
other expenses, together with interest to a date 6 months subsequent to the
estimated date of completion. Bonds issued under this Division 130 are
negotiable instruments. They shall be executed by the mayor, or president
and by the municipal clerk and shall be sealed with the corporate seal of
the municipality. In case any of the officers whose signatures appear on
the bonds, or coupons attached thereto, ceases to hold his office before
delivery of the bonds, his signature nevertheless shall be valid and
sufficient for all purposes the same as if it had remained in office until
the delivery of the bonds. The bonds may be sold at not less than 90 cents
on the dollar, and the proceeds derived therefrom shall be used exclusively
for the purposes for which the bonds were issued. The bonds may be sold at
one time or in parcels as funds are needed, but no bond shall be delivered
until bids for the construction, or the offer to sell, in the case of a
purchase, has been received, or judgment has been entered in the event of a
condemnation, and it is apparent that the authorized bonds will pay for the
contemplated waterworks.

(65 ILCS 5/11-130-6) (from Ch. 24, par. 11-130-6)
Sec. 11-130-6.
Revenue bonds issued under this Division 130 shall be
payable solely from the revenue derived from the operation of the
waterworks on account of which the bonds were issued. These bonds shall not
in any event constitute an indebtedness of the municipality within the
meaning of any constitutional or statutory limitation. It shall be plainly
stated on the face of each bond that the bond has been issued under this
Division 130 and that it does not constitute an indebtedness of the
municipality within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory
limitation.
