Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

(35 ILCS 200/29-10)

Sec. 29-10. State must be party to proceedings.

No amount may be claimed
from the State by or on behalf of any unit of local government for any local
improvement made by special assessment or special tax that benefits, or is
alleged to benefit, abutting property owned by the State unless the State has
been made a party to all proceedings, has been given all notices, and has been
afforded the same opportunities for hearing and for objecting to the assessment
in the same manner and under the same conditions as provided in the law
applicable to the making of the local improvement by special assessment or
special tax by that unit of local government.

For the purposes of this Article, any notices required under  applicable law
must be sent by registered or certified mail to the Director of the Department
or the other State officer having jurisdiction over the State property
affected, to the Director of 
Commerce and Economic Opportunity,
and to the Attorney General.
