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.

Sec. 10-7.2. Seavey Drainage District; dissolution.

In addition to the other methods of dissolution provided in this Article, the Lake County Board may dissolve the Seavey Drainage District by adopting a resolution that states:

(1) that the district has not imposed a levy for at

least 10 years;

(2) that there are no outstanding debts of the

district that have been filed with the county clerk of Lake County;

(3) that federal or State permits or grants will not

be impaired by dissolution of the district;

(4) that the precise physical boundaries of the

district have become indeterminate due to the passage of time; and

(5) the date of dissolution of the district.

On the date of dissolution of the district, all drains, levees, and other works constituting the drainage system of the district and the rights-of-way, if any, on which the same are situated shall be deemed to be for the mutual benefit of the lands formerly in the district as provided in Section 10-11. Additional

powers of the former district, except those in Article V, shall be exercised by the respective municipalities where the various parts of the former district are located and by Lake County for any unincorporated areas contained in the former district. No later than 60 days after the date of dissolution of the district, Lake County shall notify the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency of the dissolution of the district.

Dissolution of the Seavey Drainage District under this Section must take place no later than December 31, 2019.
