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.

50 years and shall contain such other terms, conditions and provisions,
not inconsistent with the provisions of this Division, as the governing
body of such municipality shall approve, including, without limitation,
provisions whereby the municipality is obligated to pay for the products
and services of a municipal power agency without set-off or counterclaim
and irrespective of whether such products or services are furnished, made
available or delivered to the municipality or whether any project contemplated
by any such contract and agreement is completed, operable or operating,
and notwithstanding suspension, interruption, interference, reduction or
curtailment of the products and services of such project.
(2) Each such contract and agreement may be pledged by such municipal
power agency to secure its obligations and may provide that if one or more

and agreement, the remaining municipalities having such contracts and agreements
shall be required to pay for and shall be entitled proportionately to use
or otherwise dispose of the products and services which were to be purchased
by the defaulting municipality.
(3) Each such contract and agreement shall be a limited obligation of
a municipality payable from and secured by a pledge of, and lien and charge

operation and maintenance thereof, and shall not constitute an indebtedness
of such municipality for the purpose of any statutory limitation.
(4) Nothing in this Division shall be construed to preclude a municipality
from appropriating and using taxes and other revenues received in any year
to make payments due or to comply with covenants to be performed during
that year under any contract or agreement for a term of years entered into
as contemplated in this Division, subject to the provisions of laws regarding
local financing.
