    AN ACT concerning townships.

    Be it enacted by the People of  the  State  of  Illinois,
represented in the General Assembly:

    Section  5.  The  Township  Code  is  amended by changing
Section 255-5 as follows:

    (60 ILCS 1/255-5)
    Sec. 255-5. Transfer from road and bridge fund.  Whenever
the road and bridge fund of any township in a county  with  a
population  of  50,000  500,000 or more contains a balance no
longer needed for road and bridge purposes, occasioned by the
fact that the township no longer has  any  roads  or  bridges
under  its  jurisdiction,  the  voters  of the township at an
annual township meeting or  at  a  special  township  meeting
called  for the purpose may, by resolution by a majority vote
of the voters present and voting on the resolution,  transfer
the  balance  to  the  general  township fund or to any other
township fund or funds. For a period of one  year  after  the
effective  date  of  this  amendatory Act of the 92nd General
Assembly, the voters of a  township  at  an  annual  township
meeting  or  at  a  special  township  meeting called for the
purpose may, by resolution by a majority vote of  the  voters
present  and  voting on the resolution, distribute funds from
the road and bridge  fund  to  any  township  fund  used  for
construction  or  maintenance  of  sewage  or water treatment
facilities.
