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 5/11-125-2) (from Ch. 24, par. 11-125-2)
Sec. 11-125-2.
For the purpose of establishing or supplying waterworks and
to purchase, extend, improve and operate waterworks, each city or village
may go beyond its corporate limits and acquire and hold property by
purchase or otherwise, and also may take and condemn all necessary property
therefor, in the manner provided for the taking or damaging of private
property for public uses, including any land now used for highway purposes
in or near any basin proposed to be flooded by the construction, extension
or improvement of any lake by any city or village of this state, for water
supply purposes, provided the highway is capable of being rerouted, raised
or otherwise revised and maintained in use and that the city or village
requiring such reconstruction shall either perform the necessary
reconstruction work or pay the full cost thereof to provide a highway of
equal value and usefulness to that existing before such work is required,
or provided the highway has been vacated by order of the highway
authorities having a jurisdiction over said highway. The jurisdiction of
the city or village to prevent or punish any pollution or injury to the
stream or source of water, or to waterworks, extends 20 miles beyond its
corporate limits, or so far as the waterworks may extend.
