(65 ILCS 5/11-85-4) (from Ch. 24, par. 11-85-4)
Sec. 11-85-4.
A municipality participating in the construction of an
improvement specified in this Division 85 has jurisdiction over the part
thereof lying within the corporate limits of the municipality. The
participating township has jurisdiction over that part of the improvement
lying outside the municipality and within the township. The municipality
and the township may repair, maintain, or reconstruct the portions of the
improvement within their respective jurisdictions in the manner provided by
law in cases of similar improvements lying wholly within their respective
jurisdictions. But nothing contained in this section affects any power
otherwise given by law to either the municipality or the township to expend
money in the repair, maintenance, or reconstruction of the entire
improvement or any part thereof.
Although parts of the improvements are under separate jurisdictions, the
municipality and the township interested may enter into contracts with each
other providing for the repair, maintenance, and upkeep, including
lighting, of the improvement, apportioning the cost thereof and providing
the method of that repair, maintenance, and upkeep, as may be agreed upon
between them.
A township may surrender its jurisdiction over such an improvement to
the municipality jointly interested, by agreement made between the
corporate authorities of both the municipality and the township. The
municipality thus assuming that jurisdiction thereafter shall be chargeable
with the repair, maintenance, and upkeep of the part of the improvement so
turned over, and may exercise its police powers thereover in like manner as
if the improvement lay entirely within the municipality.
