|
| 7 | | Sec. 6-130. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this |
| 8 | | Act to the contrary,
no
township road district may continue in |

| 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

| 16 | | mileage of 4 miles or
less, each such township road district |

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).
