Amends the Illinois Drainage Code.

Requires that commissioners elected under the provisions shall, within 20 days after their election, qualify by subscribing to an oath of office and giving bond. Provides that commissioners elected prior to the effective date of the amendatory Act shall serve the remainder of their terms and that districts may have up to 6 commissioners serve until the terms of the commissioners elected prior to the effective date of the amendatory Act expire. Provides that previously elected commissioners may resign their current position, effective after the next consolidated election, and choose to be nominated and elected under the provisions of the Election Code. Makes conforming changes. Effective immediately.
