| 1 | AMENDMENT TO SENATE BILL 958
| ||||||
| 2 | AMENDMENT NO. ______. Amend Senate Bill 958 by replacing | ||||||
| 3 | everything after the enacting clause with the following:
| ||||||
| 4 | "Section 5. The Illinois Highway Code is amended by | ||||||
| 5 | changing Section 6-130 as follows:
| ||||||
| 6 | (605 ILCS 5/6-130) (from Ch. 121, par. 6-130)
| ||||||
| 7 | Sec. 6-130. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this | ||||||
| 8 | Act to the contrary,
no
township road district may continue in | ||||||
| 9 | existence if the roads forming a
part of the district do not | ||||||
| 10 | exceed a total of 4 miles in length. For purposes of this | ||||||
| 11 | Section, the roads forming a part of a township road district | ||||||
| 12 | include those roads maintained by the district, regardless of | ||||||
| 13 | whether or not those roads are owned by the township. On the
| ||||||
| 14 | first Tuesday in April of 1975, or of any subsequent year next | ||||||
| 15 | succeeding
the reduction of a township road system to a total | ||||||
| 16 | mileage of 4 miles or
less, each such township road district | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | shall, by operation of law, be
abolished. The roads comprising | ||||||
| 2 | that district at that time shall thereafter
be administered by | ||||||
| 3 | the township board of trustees by contracting with the
county, | ||||||
| 4 | a municipality or a private contractor. The township board of | ||||||
| 5 | trustees
shall assume all taxing authority of a township road | ||||||
| 6 | district abolished under
this Section. | ||||||
| 7 | (b) In counties having a population of more than
500,000 as | ||||||
| 8 | determined by the 2010 federal census,
no
township road | ||||||
| 9 | district may continue in existence if the roads forming a
part | ||||||
| 10 | of the district do not exceed a total of 32 miles in length. | ||||||
| 11 | For purposes of this subsection (b), the roads forming a part | ||||||
| 12 | of a township road district include those roads maintained by | ||||||
| 13 | the district, regardless of whether or not those roads are | ||||||
| 14 | owned by the township. On the
first Tuesday in April after the | ||||||
| 15 | effective date of this amendatory Act of the 97th General | ||||||
| 16 | Assembly, or of any subsequent year next succeeding
the | ||||||
| 17 | reduction of a township road system to a total mileage of 32 | ||||||
| 18 | miles or
less, each such township road district under this | ||||||
| 19 | subsection (b) shall, by operation of law, be
abolished. The | ||||||
| 20 | roads comprising that district at that time shall thereafter
be | ||||||
| 21 | administered by the township board of trustees by contracting | ||||||
| 22 | with the
county, a municipality or a private contractor. The | ||||||
| 23 | township board of trustees
shall assume all taxing authority of | ||||||
| 24 | a township road district abolished under
this subsection (b).
