Sec. 35-15.
Transferred territory; tax liability.
(a) When any territory has been transferred from a district
under this Act and the court order providing for the transfer also
sets forth a continuing liability to be paid and retired by property owners
of the transferred territory, the county collector of the county involved
shall debit upon his or her books the taxes to be paid and thereafter levied by
the district and extended against taxable property within the transferred
territory. The county clerk shall continue to extend district library taxes
upon the taxable property within transferred territory, and the county collector
shall continue to collect district library taxes upon the taxable property
within the transferred territory, until the excess liability has been
paid and retired.
(b) Until full and final payment of the liability, the
residents and property
owners of the transferred territory shall be entitled to full and free library
service from the district. Upon full and final payment
of the liability, the residents and property owners of the transferred
territory shall no longer be subject to any tax levies by the district,
nor shall they thereafter have any right, title, or interest in and to the
assets and tangible property of the district affected by the transfer.
