    Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
 
represented in the General Assembly:
  
 
 
    Section 5. The Mosquito Abatement District Act is amended  
by adding Section 11.5 as follows:
 
    (70 ILCS 1005/11.5 new)
    Sec. 11.5. Cessation of district organization. 
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, if a majority vote 
of the board of trustees of a mosquito abatement district is in 
favor of a proposition to annex the district to another 
mosquito abatement district whose boundaries are contiguous, 
consolidate the district into a municipality whose boundaries 
are coterminous or substantially coterminous with the 
district, consolidate the district into the township in which 
the district sits, or consolidate the district into the county 
in which the district sits, and if the governing authorities of 
the governmental unit assuming the functions of the former 
district agree by resolution to accept the functions (and 
jurisdiction over the territory, if applicable) of the 
consolidated or annexed district, then the district shall 
cease. On the effective date of the annexation or 
consolidation, all the rights, powers, duties, assets, 
property, liabilities, indebtedness, obligations, bonding 
authority, taxing authority, and responsibilities of the 
district shall vest in and be assumed by the governmental unit 
assuming the functions of the former district.
    The employees of the former district shall be transferred 
to the governmental unit assuming the functions of the former 
district. The governmental unit assuming the functions of the 
former district shall exercise the rights and responsibilities 
of the former district with respect to those employees. The 
status and rights of the employees of the former district under 
any applicable contracts or collective bargaining agreements, 
historical representation rights under the Illinois Public 
Labor Relations Act, or under any pension, retirement, or 
annuity plan shall not be affected by this amendatory Act of 
the 100th General Assembly.
