 7        (70 ILCS 2805/8.1 new)
 8        Sec.    8.1.  Private    funding    of   public   sewers;
 9    reimbursement; contract.  If one  or  more  persons  pay  for
10    building  a sewer to be dedicated to the sanitary district as
11    a public sewer, and if the sewer will, in the opinion of  the
12    board  of trustees, be used for the benefit of property whose
13    owners  did  not  contribute  to  the  cost  of  the  sewer's
14    construction,  the  board  of  trustees   may   provide   for
15    reimbursement  of  some or all of the expenses of the persons
16    who paid for the sewer as  provided  in  this  Section.   The
17    board  of  trustees  may, by contract, agree to reimburse the
18    persons who paid for the sewer, in whole or in  part,  for  a
19    portion of their costs.  The reimbursement shall be made from
20    fees collected from owners of property who did not contribute
21    to  the  cost  of  the sewer when it was built.  The contract
22    shall describe the property that, in the opinion of the board
                            -2-            LRB9004828PTcwam01
 1    of trustees, may reasonably be expected to  use  and  benefit
 2    from  the sewer and shall specify the amount of proportion of
 3    the cost of the sewer that is to be  incurred  primarily  for
 4    the  benefit  of  that  property.  The contract shall provide
 5    that the sanitary district shall collect the fees charged  to
 6    owners  of property not contributing to the cost of the sewer
 7    as a condition to the connection to and use of the  sewer  by
 8    the  respective  properties  of each owner.  The contract may
 9    provide for the payment of a reasonable amount of interest or
10    other charge on the amount expended in completing the  sewer,
11    with  interest  to  be  calculated from and after the date of
12    completion of the sewer.  Nothing in this  Section  shall  be
13    construed  to  require  an  owner  of property described in a
14    contract to connect such property to the sewer or  to  pay  a
15    fee if such property is not connected to the sewer.
16        (70 ILCS 2805/8.2 new)
17        Sec.  8.2.  Filing  of contract.  A contract entered into
18    under Section 8.1 between the board of trustees  and  persons
19    building  a sewer to be dedicated to the sanitary district as
20    a public sewer shall be  filed  with  the  recorder  of  each
21    county in which all or a part of the property affected by the
22    contract  is  located.  The recording of the contract in this
23    manner shall serve  to  notify  persons  interested  in  that
24    property  of the fact that there will be a charge in relation
25    to that property  for  the  connection  to  and  use  of  the
26    facilities constructed under the contract.  Failure to record
27    the  contract does not affect the validity of the contract.";
28    and
29    by inserting immediately below the last Section at the end of
30    the bill the following:
31        "Section 99.  Effective date.  This Act takes effect upon
32    becoming law.".
