Whenever a final plat of subdivision, or part thereof, 21 has been approved by the corporate authorities as complying 22 with the official map and there is designated therein a 23 school site, park site or other public land, the corporate 24 authorities having jurisdiction of such use, be it a school 25 board, park board or other authority, such authority shall 26 acquire the land so designated by purchase or commence 27 proceedings to acquire such land by condemnation within one 28 year from the date of approval of such plat; and if it does 29 not do so within such period of one year, the land so 30 designated may then be used by the owners thereof in any 31 other manner consistent with the ordinance including the 32 official map and the zoning ordinance of the municipality. 33 The corporate authorities may by ordinance provide that a 34 plat of subdivision may be submitted initially to the plan HB2161 Enrolled -8- LRB9004828PTcw 1 commission for preliminary approval.

This application must be supported by such drawings, 26 specifications and bond as may be necessary to demonstrate 27 compliance with all requirements of this statute and such 28 regulations as the corporate authorities may provide by 29 ordinance under authority of this statute. This Section is 30 subject to the provisions of Section 11-39-3. 31 The applicant may elect to have final approval of a 32 geographic part or parts of the plat that received 33 preliminary approval, and may delay application for approval 34 of other parts until a later date or dates beyond one year HB2161 Enrolled -9- LRB9004828PTcw 1 with the approval of the municipal authorities; provided, all 2 facilities required to serve the part or parts for which 3 final approval is sought have been provided.

The applicant 15 and the corporate authorities may mutually agree to extend 16 the 60 day period. 17 The corporate authorities may provide that any person, 18 firm or corporation seeking approval of a subdivision or 19 resubdivision map or plat shall post a good and sufficient 20 bond with the municipal clerk in a penal sum sufficient to 21 cover the estimate made by the municipal engineer, or other 22 authorized person, of expenditures, including but not limited 23 to reasonable inspection fees to be borne by the applicant, 24 necessary to conform to the requirements established and 25 conditioned upon completion of said requirements in a 26 reasonable time. The corporate authorities may, by ordinance, 27 prescribe the form of the bond and may require surety to be 28 approved by the corporate authorities; provided, that a 29 municipality may permit the depositing of cash or other 30 security acceptable to the corporate authorities, to complete 31 the improvements required in lieu of a bond if it shall so 32 provide by ordinance; and further provided, that no bond or 33 security shall be required to be filed until the corporate 34 authorities have approved the plat in all other respects and HB2161 Enrolled -10- LRB9004828PTcw 1 have notified the applicant of such approval. If the 2 corporate authorities require a cash bond, the requirement 3 shall be subject to the provisions of Section 11-39-3. 4 If the preliminary or final plat is approved, the 5 municipal clerk shall attach a certified copy of the order or 6 resolution of approval to a copy of the plat.

If the corporate authorities refuse to act upon 23 the final plat within the time prescribed and if their 24 failure to act thereon is wilful, upon such showing and upon 25 proof of damages the municipality shall be liable therefor. 26 (Source: P.A. 83-358.) 27 (65 ILCS 5/11-39-3) 28 Sec. 11-39-3.

If any district formed under this Act is unable to 20 agree with any other sanitary district upon the terms whereby 21 it shall be permitted to use the drains, channels or ditches 22 of such other sanitary district, the right to such use may be 23 acquired by condemnation in any circuit court by proceedings 24 as provided in Section 4-17 of the Illinois Drainage Code. 25 The compensation to be paid for such use may be a gross sum, 26 or it may be in the form of an annual rental, to be paid in 27 yearly installments as provided by the judgment of the court 28 wherein such proceedings may be had. However, when such 29 compensation is fixed at a gross sum all moneys for the 30 purchase and condemnation of any property shall be paid 31 before possession is taken or any work done on the premises 32 damaged by the construction of such channel or outlet, and in HB2161 Enrolled -13- LRB9004828PTcw 1 case of an appeal from the circuit court taken by either 2 party whereby the amount of damages is not finally 3 determined, then possession may be taken, if the amount of 4 judgment in such court is deposited at some bank or savings 5 and loan association to be designated by the court, subject 6 to the payment of such damages on orders signed by the 7 circuit court, whenever the amount of damages is finally 8 determined. The sanitary district may sell, convey, vacate 9 and release the real or personal property, right of way and 10 privileges acquired by it when no longer required for the 11 purposes of the district. 12 (Source: P.A. 84-452; 84-545.) 13 Section 5. The Sanitary District Act of 1936 is amended 14 by adding Sections 8.1 and 8.2 and by changing Sections 10 15 and 32a.3 as follows: 16 (70 ILCS 2805/8.1 new) 17 Sec. 8.1. Private funding of public sewers; 18 reimbursement; contract. If one or more persons pay for 19 building a sewer to be dedicated to the sanitary district as 20 a public sewer, and if the sewer will, in the opinion of the 21 board of trustees, be used for the benefit of property whose 22 owners did not contribute to the cost of the sewer's 23 construction, the board of trustees may provide for 24 reimbursement of some or all of the expenses of the persons 25 who paid for the sewer as provided in this Section. The 26 board of trustees may, by contract, agree to reimburse the 27 persons who paid for the sewer, in whole or in part, for a 28 portion of their costs. The reimbursement shall be made from 29 fees collected from owners of property who did not contribute 30 to the cost of the sewer when it was built. The contract 31 shall describe the property that, in the opinion of the board 32 of trustees, may reasonably be expected to use and benefit HB2161 Enrolled -14- LRB9004828PTcw 1 from the sewer and shall specify the amount of proportion of 2 the cost of the sewer that is to be incurred primarily for 3 the benefit of that property.

The contract may 8 provide for the payment of a reasonable amount of interest or 9 other charge on the amount expended in completing the sewer, 10 with interest to be calculated from and after the date of 11 completion of the sewer. Nothing in this Section shall be 12 construed to require an owner of property described in a 13 contract to connect such property to the sewer or to pay a 14 fee if such property is not connected to the sewer. 15 (70 ILCS 2805/8.2 new) 16 Sec. 8.2. Filing of contract. A contract entered into 17 under Section 8.1 between the board of trustees and persons 18 building a sewer to be dedicated to the sanitary district as 19 a public sewer shall be filed with the recorder of each 20 county in which all or a part of the property affected by the 21 contract is located. The recording of the contract in this 22 manner shall serve to notify persons interested in that 23 property of the fact that there will be a charge in relation 24 to that property for the connection to and use of the 25 facilities constructed under the contract. Failure to record 26 the contract does not affect the validity of the contract. 27 (70 ILCS 2805/10) (from Ch. 42, par. 421) 28 Sec. 10. The sanitary district may acquire by purchase, 29 condemnation, or otherwise all real and personal property, 30 right of way and privilege, either within or without its 31 corporate limits that may be required for its corporate 32 purposes.

If any sanitary district formed under this Act is 3 unable to agree with any other sanitary district, city, 4 village or incorporated town upon the terms whereby it shall 5 be permitted to use the drains, channels or ditches of such 6 other sanitary district, city, village or incorporated town, 7 the right to such use may be acquired by condemnation in any 8 circuit court by proceedings as provided in Section 4-17 of 9 the Illinois Drainage Code. The compensation to be paid for 10 such use may be a gross sum, or it may be in the form of an 11 annual rental, to be paid in yearly installments as and in 12 the manner provided by the judgment of the court wherein such 13 proceedings may be had. However, when such compensation is 14 fixed at a gross sum, all moneys for the purchase and 15 condemnation of any property shall be paid before possession 16 is taken or any work done on the premises damaged by the 17 construction of such channel or outlet, and in case of an 18 appeal from the circuit court taken by either party whereby 19 the amount of damages is not finally determined, then 20 possession may be taken, if the amount of the judgment in 21 such court is deposited at some bank or savings and loan 22 association to be designated by the court, subject to the 23 payment of such damages on orders signed by such circuit 24 court, whenever the amount of damages is finally determined. 25 The sanitary district may sell, convey, vacate and release 26 the real or personal property, right of way and privileges 27 acquired by it when no longer required for the purposes of 28 such district. 29 (Source: P.A. 83-1362.) 30 (70 ILCS 2805/32a.3) (from Ch. 42, par. 443a.3) 31 Sec. 32a.3.
