(70 ILCS 1205/7-3) (from Ch. 105, par. 7-3)
Sec. 7-3.
In the making of any local improvements by a park district and
except as in this section otherwise provided, the powers and duties
provided to be exercised and performed by the respective officers of cities
and villages under Article 9 of the Illinois Municipal Code, as heretofore
and hereafter amended shall be exercised and performed by the
corresponding officers of such park districts, insofar as action by any
such officers is required under the form of local improvement proceeding
the board elects to adopt for the improvement. The board of such district
shall act as the Board of Local Improvements. The superintendent of such
park district or such other official or person as the board may designate
shall act as Superintendent of Special Assessments. The engineer employed
by the board to prepare the plans and specifications for the improvements
shall be the "engineer," or if no such person be employed, then any
qualified engineer designated by the board may so act. The attorney for
said park district shall (unless a special attorney be employed by the
board for such purpose) be the attorney for said Board of Local
Improvements.
The members of said board of local improvements shall act as such
without compensation, and the secretary shall be ex-officio secretary of
said board of local improvements and the treasurer shall perform the duties
of collector of said special assessment and shall be custodian of such
funds which shall be expended only for the improvement for which said
assessment is levied.
