the Illinois Municipal Code.

Article 5. General Exercise

 
    Section 5-5-5. Exercise of the power of eminent domain;
public use; blight.
    (a) In addition to all other limitations and requirements,
a condemning authority may not take or damage property by the
exercise of the power of eminent domain unless it is for a
public use, as set forth in this Section.
    (a-5) Subsections (b), (c), (d), (e), and (f) of this
Section do not apply to the acquisition of property under the
O'Hare Modernization Act. A condemning authority may exercise
the power of eminent domain for the acquisition or damaging of
property under the O'Hare Modernization Act as provided for by
law in effect prior to the effective date of this Act.
    (a-10) Subsections (b), (c), (d), (e), and (f) of this
Section do not apply to the acquisition or damaging of property
in furtherance of the goals and objectives of an existing tax
increment allocation redevelopment plan. A condemning
authority may exercise the power of eminent domain for the
acquisition of property in furtherance of an existing tax
increment allocation redevelopment plan as provided for by law
in effect prior to the effective date of this Act.
    As used in this subsection, "existing tax increment
allocation redevelopment plan" means a redevelopment plan that
was adopted under the Tax Increment Allocation Redevelopment
Act (Article 11, Division 74.4 of the Illinois Municipal Code)
prior to April 15, 2006 and for which property assembly costs
were, before that date, included as a budget line item in the
plan or described in the narrative portion of the plan as part
of the redevelopment project, but does not include (i) any
additional area added to the redevelopment project area on or
after April 15, 2006, (ii) any subsequent extension of the
completion date of a redevelopment plan beyond the estimated
completion date established in that plan prior to April 15,
2006, (iii) any acquisition of property in a conservation area
for which the condemnation complaint is filed more than 12
years after the effective date of this Act, or (iv) any
acquisition of property in an industrial park conservation
area.
    As used in this subsection, "conservation area" and
"industrial park conservation area" have the same meanings as
under Section 11-74.4-3 of the Illinois Municipal Code.
    (b) If the exercise of eminent domain authority is to
acquire property for public ownership and control, then the
condemning authority must prove that (i) the acquisition of the
property is necessary for a public purpose and (ii) the
acquired property will be owned and controlled by the
condemning authority or another governmental entity.
    (c) Except when the acquisition is governed by subsection
(b) or is primarily for one of the purposes specified in
subsection (d), (e), or (f) and the condemning authority elects
to proceed under one of those subsections, if the exercise of
eminent domain authority is to acquire property for private
ownership or control, or both, then the condemning authority
must prove by clear and convincing evidence that the
acquisition of the property for private ownership or control is
(i) primarily for the benefit, use, or enjoyment of the public
and (ii) necessary for a public purpose.
    An acquisition of property primarily for the purpose of the
elimination of blight is rebuttably presumed to be for a public
purpose and primarily for the benefit, use, or enjoyment of the
public under this subsection.
    Any challenge to the existence of blighting factors alleged
in a complaint to condemn under this subsection shall be raised
within 6 months of the filing date of the complaint to condemn,
and if not raised within that time the right to challenge the
existence of those blighting factors shall be deemed waived.
    Evidence that the Illinois Commerce Commission has granted
a certificate or otherwise made a finding of public convenience
and necessity for an acquisition of property (or any right or
interest in property) for private ownership or control
(including, without limitation, an acquisition for which the
use of eminent domain is authorized under the Public Utilities
Act, the Telephone Company Act, or the Electric Supplier Act)
to be used for utility purposes creates a rebuttable
presumption that such acquisition of that property (or right or
interest in property) is (i) primarily for the benefit, use, or
enjoyment of the public and (ii) necessary for a public
purpose.
    In the case of an acquisition of property (or any right or
interest in property) for private ownership or control to be
used for utility, pipeline, or railroad purposes for which no
certificate or finding of public convenience and necessity by
the Illinois Commerce Commission is required, evidence that the
acquisition is one for which the use of eminent domain is
authorized under one of the following laws creates a rebuttable
presumption that the acquisition of that property (or right or
interest in property) is (i) primarily for the benefit, use, or
enjoyment of the public and (ii) necessary for a public
purpose:
        (1) the Public Utilities Act,
        (2) the Telephone Company Act,
        (3) the Electric Supplier Act,
        (4) the Railroad Terminal Authority Act,
        (5) the Grand Avenue Railroad Relocation Authority
    Act,
        (6) the West Cook Railroad Relocation and Development
    Authority Act,
        (7) Section 4-505 of the Illinois Highway Code,
        (8) Section 17 or 18 of the Railroad Incorporation Act,
        (9) Section 18c-7501 of the Illinois Vehicle Code.
    (d) If the exercise of eminent domain authority is to
acquire property for private ownership or control and if the
primary basis for the acquisition is the elimination of blight
and the condemning authority elects to proceed under this
subsection, then the condemning authority must: (i) prove by a
preponderance of the evidence that acquisition of the property
for private ownership or control is necessary for a public
purpose; (ii) prove by a preponderance of the evidence that the
property to be acquired is located in an area that is currently
designated as a blighted area or conservation area under an
applicable statute; (iii) if the existence of blight or
blighting factors is challenged in an appropriate motion filed
within 6 months after the date of filing of the complaint to
condemn, prove by a preponderance of the evidence that the
required blighting factors existed in the area so designated
(but not necessarily in the particular property to be acquired)
at the time of the designation under item (ii) or at any time
thereafter; and (iv) prove by a preponderance of the evidence
at least one of the following:
        (A) that it has entered into an express written
    agreement in which a private person or entity agrees to
    undertake a development project within the blighted area
    that specifically details the reasons for which the
    property or rights in that property are necessary for the
    development project;
        (B) that the exercise of eminent domain power and the
    proposed use of the property by the condemning authority
    are consistent with a regional plan that has been adopted
    within the past 5 years in accordance with Section 5-14001
    of the Counties Code or Section 11-12-6 of the Illinois
    Municipal Code or with a local land resource management
    plan adopted under Section 4 of the Local Land Resource
    Management Planning Act; or
        (C) that (1) the acquired property will be used in the
    development of a project that is consistent with the land
    uses set forth in a comprehensive redevelopment plan
    prepared in accordance with the applicable statute
    authorizing the condemning authority to exercise the power
    of eminent domain and is consistent with the goals and
    purposes of that comprehensive redevelopment plan, and (2)
    an enforceable written agreement, deed restriction, or
    similar encumbrance has been or will be executed and
    recorded against the acquired property to assure that the
    project and the use of the property remain consistent with
    those land uses, goals, and purposes for a period of at
    least 40 years, which execution and recording shall be
    included as a requirement in any final order entered in the
    condemnation proceeding.
    The existence of an ordinance, resolution, or other
official act designating an area as blighted is not prima facie
evidence of the existence of blight. A finding by the court in
a condemnation proceeding that a property or area has not been
proven to be blighted does not apply to any other case or
undermine the designation of a blighted area or conservation
area or the determination of the existence of blight for any
other purpose or under any other statute, including without
limitation under the Tax Increment Allocation Redevelopment
Act (Article 11, Division 74.4 of the Illinois Municipal Code).
    Any challenge to the existence of blighting factors alleged
in a complaint to condemn under this subsection shall be raised
within 6 months of the filing date of the complaint to condemn,
and if not raised within that time the right to challenge the
existence of those blighting factors shall be deemed waived.
    (e) If the exercise of eminent domain authority is to
acquire property for private ownership or control and if the
primary purpose of the acquisition is one of the purposes
specified in item (iii) of this subsection and the condemning
authority elects to proceed under this subsection, then the
condemning authority must prove by a preponderance of the
evidence that: (i) the acquisition of the property is necessary
for a public purpose; (ii) an enforceable written agreement,
deed restriction, or similar encumbrance has been or will be
executed and recorded against the acquired property to assure
that the project and the use of the property remain consistent
with the applicable purpose specified in item (iii) of this
subsection for a period of at least 40 years, which execution
and recording shall be included as a requirement in any final
order entered in the condemnation proceeding; and (iii) the
acquired property will be one of the following:
        (1) included in the project site for a residential
    project, or a mixed-use project including residential
    units, where not less than 20% of the residential units in
    the project are made available, for at least 15 years, by
    deed restriction, long-term lease, regulatory agreement,
    extended use agreement, or a comparable recorded
    encumbrance, to low-income households and very low-income
    households, as defined in Section 3 of the Illinois
    Affordable Housing Act;
        (2) used primarily for public airport, road, parking,
    or mass transportation purposes and sold or leased to a
    private party in a sale-leaseback, lease-leaseback, or
    similar structured financing;
        (3) owned or used by a public utility or electric
    cooperative for utility purposes;
        (4) owned or used by a railroad for passenger or
    freight transportation purposes;
        (5) sold or leased to a private party that operates a
    water supply, waste water, recycling, waste disposal,
    waste-to-energy, or similar facility;
        (6) sold or leased to a not-for-profit corporation
    whose purposes include the preservation of open space, the
    operation of park space, and similar public purposes;
        (7) used as a library, museum, or related facility, or
    as infrastructure related to such a facility;
        (8) used by a private party for the operation of a
    charter school open to the general public; or
        (9) a historic resource, as defined in Section 3 of the
    Illinois State Agency Historic Resources Preservation Act,
    a landmark designated as such under a local ordinance, or a
    contributing structure within a local landmark district
    listed on the National Register of Historic Places, that is
    being acquired for purposes of preservation or
    rehabilitation.
    (f) If the exercise of eminent domain authority is to
acquire property for public ownership and private control and
if the primary purpose of the acquisition is one of the
purposes specified in item (iii) of this subsection and the
condemning authority elects to proceed under this subsection,
then the condemning authority must prove by a preponderance of
the evidence that: (i) the acquisition of the property is
necessary for a public purpose; (ii) the acquired property will
be owned by the condemning authority or another governmental
entity; and (iii) the acquired property will be controlled by a
private party that operates a business or facility related to
the condemning authority's operation of a university, medical
district, hospital, exposition or convention center, mass
transportation facility, or airport, including, but not
limited to, a medical clinic, research and development center,
food or commercial concession facility, social service
facility, maintenance or storage facility, cargo facility,
rental car facility, bus facility, taxi facility, flight
kitchen, fixed based operation, parking facility, refueling
facility, water supply facility, and railroad tracks and
stations.
    (g) This Article is a limitation on the exercise of the
power of eminent domain, but is not an independent grant of
authority to exercise the power of eminent domain.

compensation so finally ascertained and ordering and directing

remain due to any of the interested parties, directing the
return of any excess in the deposit remaining with the clerk of
the court, and directing the refund of any excess amount

date, the plaintiff either: (i) be vested with the fee simple
title (or such lesser estate, interest, or easement, as may be
required) to the real property, or a specified portion of that
property thereof, which is the subject of the proceeding, and
be authorized to take possession of and use the such property;
or (ii) only be authorized to take possession of and to use the
such property, if such possession and use, without the vesting
of title, are sufficient to permit the plaintiff to proceed
with the project until the final ascertainment of compensation.
No ; however, no land or interests in land therein now or
hereafter owned, leased, controlled, or operated and used by,
or necessary for the actual operation of, any common carrier
engaged in interstate commerce, or any other public utility

stated, the motion for taking shall state: (1) an accurate
description of the property to which the motion relates and the
estate or interest sought to be acquired in that property
therein; (2) the formally adopted schedule or plan of operation
for the execution of the plaintiff's project; (3) the situation

      (was 735 ILCS 5/7-104)
    Section 20-5-10 7-104. Preliminary finding of
compensation.
    (a) The court shall fix a date, not less than 5 days after
the filing of a such motion under Section 20-5-5, for the
hearing on that motion thereon, and shall require due notice to
be given to each party to the proceeding whose interests would
be affected by the taking requested, except that any party who
has been or is being served by publication and who has not
entered his or her appearance in the proceeding need not be
given notice unless the court so requires, in its discretion
and in the interests of justice.
    (b) At the hearing, if the court has not previously, in the
same proceeding, determined that the plaintiff has authority to
exercise the right of eminent domain, that the property sought
to be taken is subject to the exercise of that such right, and
that the such right of eminent domain is not being improperly
exercised in the particular proceeding, then the court shall
first hear and determine those such matters. The court's order
on those matters thereon is appealable, and an appeal may be
taken from that order therefrom by either party within 30 days
after the entry of the such order, but not thereafter, unless
the court, on good cause shown, extends the time for taking the
such appeal. However, no appeal shall stay the further
proceedings herein prescribed in this Act unless the appeal is
taken by the plaintiff, or unless an order staying such further
proceedings is entered either by the trial court or by the
court to which the such appeal is taken.
    (c) If the foregoing matters are determined in favor of the
plaintiff and further proceedings are not stayed, or if further
proceedings are stayed and the appeal results in a
determination in favor of the plaintiff, the court then shall
hear the issues raised by the plaintiff's motion for taking. If
the court finds that reasonable necessity exists for taking the
property in the manner requested in the motion, then the court
shall hear such evidence as it may consider necessary and
proper for a preliminary finding of just compensation. In ; and,
in its discretion, the court may appoint 3 competent and
disinterested appraisers as agents of the court to evaluate the
property to which the motion relates and to report their
conclusions to the court; and their fees shall be paid by the
plaintiff. The court shall then make a preliminary finding of
the amount constituting just compensation.
    (d) The court's Such preliminary finding of just
compensation, and any deposit made or security provided
pursuant to that finding thereto, shall not be evidence in the
further proceedings to ascertain finally the just compensation
to be paid, and shall not be disclosed in any manner to a jury
impaneled in the such proceedings. If ; and if appraisers have
been appointed, as herein authorized under this Article, their
report shall not be evidence in those such further proceedings,
but the appraisers may be called as witnesses by the parties to
the proceedings.

money in the amount preliminarily found by the court to be just
compensation, the court shall enter an order of taking, vesting
in the plaintiff the fee simple title (or such lesser estate,
interest, or easement, as may be required) to the property, if
such vesting has been requested, and has been found necessary
by the court, at a such date as the court considers proper, and
fixing a date on which the plaintiff is authorized to take
possession of and to use the property.
    (b) If, at the request of any interested party and upon his
or her showing of undue hardship or other good cause, the
plaintiff's authority to take possession of the property is
postponed for more than 10 days after the date of such vesting
of title, or more than 15 days after the entry of the such
order of taking when the order does not vest title in the
plaintiff, then that party shall pay to the plaintiff a
reasonable rental for the such property in an , the amount
thereof to be determined by the court. Injunctive relief or any
other appropriate judicial process or procedure shall be
available to place the plaintiff in possession of the property
on and after the date fixed by the court for the taking of such
possession, and to prevent any unauthorized interference with
such possession and the plaintiff's proper use of the property.
The county treasurer shall refund to the plaintiff the amount
deposited prior to October 1, 1973 that , which is in excess of
the amount preliminarily found by the court to be just
compensation.
    (c) When property is taken by a unit of local government
for the purpose of constructing a body of water to be used by a
local government-owned "public utility", as defined in Section
11-117-2 of the Illinois Municipal Code, and the unit of local
government intends to sell or lease the such property to a
non-governmental entity, the defendants holding title before
the order that which transferred title shall be allowed first
opportunity to repurchase the such property for a fair market
value or first opportunity to lease the property for a fair
market value.

described in subsection (b) of Section 20-5-10 7-104 of this
Act, or if such an appeal has been taken and has been

compensation, and deposited by the plaintiff, in accordance
with the provisions of subsection (a) of Section 20-5-15 7-105
of this Act, as that such share is shall have been determined
by the court. The court shall then fix a date for a hearing on
the such application for authority to withdraw , and shall
require due notice of the such application to be given to each
party whose interests would be affected by the such withdrawal.
After the hearing, the court may authorize the withdrawal
requested, or any such part thereof as is proper, but upon the
condition that the party making the such withdrawal shall
refund to the clerk of the court, upon the entry of a proper
court order, any portion of the amount so withdrawn that which
exceeds the amount finally ascertained in the proceeding to be
just compensation (or damages, costs, expenses, or attorney
fees) owing to that such party.

    Section 95-10-20. The State Parks Act is amended by
changing Section 2 as follows:
 
    (20 ILCS 835/2)  (from Ch. 105, par. 466)
    Sec. 2. It shall be the policy of the State of Illinois to
acquire a system of State parks which shall embody the
following purposes and objectives:
    (1) To preserve the most important historic sites and
events which are connected with early pioneer or Indian
history, so that such history of the Indians, explorers,
missionaries and settlers may be preserved, not only as a
tribute to those who made possible the building of the State of
Illinois and of the Union, but also as a part of the education
of present and future Illinois citizens.
    (2) To set aside as public reservations those locations
which have unusual scenic attractions caused by geologic or
topographic formations, such as canyons, gorges, caves, dunes,
beaches, moraines, palisades, examples of Illinois prairie,
and points of scientific interest to botanists and naturalists.
These areas should be large in size and whenever practicable
shall be not less than 1,000 acres in extent. However, smaller
areas may be acquired wherever conditions do not warrant the
acquisition of the larger acreage.
    (3) To preserve large forested areas and marginal lands
along the rivers, small water courses, and lakes for a
recreation use different from that given by the typical city
park, and so that these tracts may remain unchanged by
civilization, so far as possible, and be kept for future
generations. Such areas also, should be acquired in units of
1,000 acres or more and may be available as fish and game
preserves. However, smaller areas may be acquired wherever
conditions do not warrant the acquisition of the larger
acreage.
    (4) To connect these parks with each other by a system of
scenic parkways with widths varying from 100 to 1,000 feet, as
a supplement to and completion of the State highway system.
Where the present State highway routes may serve this purpose,
their location, alignment and design should be studied with
this plan in view. At suitable locations along these highways,
pure water supplies and shelters and comfort facilities of
attractive design may be installed for the convenience of the
public.
    The Department of Natural Resources is authorized in behalf
of the State of Illinois to accept by donation or bequest, to
purchase or acquire by condemnation proceedings in the manner
provided for the exercise of the power of eminent domain under
the Eminent Domain Act Article VII of the Code of Civil
Procedure, or by contract for deed payable over a period of
time not to exceed 10 years, or in any other legal manner, the
title to all such lands, waters or regions, and the easements
appurtenant or contributory thereto, which shall be in accord
with such policy in respect to a system of State parks, for the
purpose of which the General Assembly may make an
appropriation. Purchases by contract for deed under this
Section shall not exceed $20,000,000 in total purchase price
for land under contract at any one given time.

    Sec. 3. The Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity
Community Affairs shall have the following powers and duties:
    (a) To solicit, accept and expend gifts, grants or any form
of assistance, from any source, including but not limited to,
the federal government or any agency thereof;
    (b) To enter into contracts, including, but not limited to,
service contracts, with business, industrial, university,
governmental or other qualified individuals or organizations
to promote development of coal and other energy resources. Such
contracts may be for, but are not limited to, the following
purposes: (1) the commercial application of existing
technology for development of coal resources, (2) to initiate
or complete development of new technology for development of
coal resources, and (3) for planning, design, acquisition,
development, construction, improvement and financing a site or
sites and facilities for establishing plants, projects or
demonstrations for development of coal resources and research,
development and demonstration of alternative forms of energy;
and
    (c) In the exercise of other powers granted it under this
Act, to acquire property, real, personal or mixed, including
any rights therein, by exercise of the power of condemnation in
accordance with the procedures provided for the exercise of
eminent domain under the Eminent Domain Act Article VII of the
Code of Civil Procedure, as amended, provided, however, the
power of condemnation shall be exercised solely for the
purposes of siting and/or rights of way and/or easements
appurtenant to coal utilization and/or coal conversion
projects. The Department shall not exercise its powers of
condemnation until it has used reasonable good faith efforts to
acquire such property before filing a petition for condemnation
and may thereafter use such powers when it determines that such
condemnation of property rights is necessary to avoid
unreasonable delay or economic hardship to the progress of
activities carried out in the exercise of powers granted under
this Act. After June 30, 1985, the Department shall not
exercise its power of condemnation for a project which does not
receive State or U.S. Government funding. Before use of the
power of condemnation for projects not receiving State or U.S.
Government funding, the Department shall hold a public hearing
to receive comments on the exercise of the power of
condemnation. The Department shall use the information
received at hearing in making its final decision on the
exercise of the power of condemnation. The hearing shall be
held in a location reasonably accessible to the public
interested in the decision. The Department shall promulgate
guidelines for the conduct of the hearing.

community college districts, the Director of the Department of
Central Management Services shall, when requested by any such
public community college district board, enter into a lease by

    In the course of such activities, acquire property of any

of Chicago State University, the Board of Trustees of Eastern
Illinois University, the Board of Trustees of Governors State
University, the Board of Trustees of Illinois State University,

    (b) Execute leases of facilities and sites to, and charge
for the use of any such facilities and sites by, any officer,
department, board, commission or other agency of the State of

Such leases to the officers, departments, boards, commissions,

School Building Commission or any public community college
district board shall contain the provision that rents under
such leases shall be payable solely from appropriations to be
made by the General Assembly for the payment of such rent and
any revenues derived from the operation of the leased premises.
    (d) Borrow money and issue and sell bonds in such amount or
amounts as the Authority may determine for the purpose of
acquiring, constructing, completing or remodeling, or putting
fixed equipment in any such facility; refund and refinance the
same from time to time as often as advantageous and in the
public interest to do so; and pledge any and all income of such
Authority, and any revenues derived from such facilities, or
any combination thereof, to secure the payment of such bonds
and to redeem such bonds. All such bonds are subject to the
provisions of Section 6 of this Act.
    In addition to the permanent financing authorized by
Sections 5 and 6 of this Act, the Illinois Building Authority
may borrow money and issue interim notes in evidence thereof
for any of the projects, or to perform any of the duties
authorized under this Act, and in addition may borrow money and
issue interim notes for planning, architectural and
engineering, acquisition of land, and purchase of fixed
equipment as follows:
        1. Whenever the Authority considers it advisable and in
    the interests of the Authority to borrow funds temporarily
    for any of the purposes enumerated in this Section, the
    Authority may from time to time, and pursuant to
    appropriate resolution, issue interim notes to evidence
    such borrowings including funds for the payment of interest
    on such borrowings and funds for all necessary and
    incidental expenses in connection with any of the purposes
    provided for by this Section and this Act until the date of
    the permanent financing. Any resolution authorizing the
    issuance of such notes shall describe the project to be
    undertaken and shall specify the principal amount, rate of
    interest (not exceeding the maximum rate authorized by the
    Bond Authorization Act, as amended at the time of the
    making of the contract,) and maturity date, but not to
    exceed 5 years from date of issue, and such other terms as
    may be specified in such resolution; however, time of
    payment of any such notes may be extended for a period of
    not exceeding 3 years from the maturity date thereof.
        The Authority may provide for the registration of the
    notes in the name of the owner either as to principal
    alone, or as to both principal and interest, on such terms
    and conditions as the Authority may determine by the
    resolution authorizing their issue. The notes shall be
    issued from time to time by the Authority as funds are
    borrowed, in the manner the Authority may determine.
    Interest on the notes may be made payable semiannually,
    annually or at maturity. The notes may be made redeemable,
    prior to maturity, at the option of the Authority, in the
    manner and upon the terms fixed by the resolution
    authorizing their issuance. The notes may be executed in
    the name of the Authority by the Chairman of the Authority
    or by any other officer or officers of the Authority as the
    Authority by resolution may direct, shall be attested by
    the Secretary or such other officer or officers of the
    Authority as the Authority may by resolution direct, and be
    sealed with the Authority's corporate seal. All such notes
    and the interest thereon may be secured by a pledge of any
    income and revenue derived by the Authority from the
    project to be undertaken with the proceeds of the notes and
    shall be payable solely from such income and revenue and
    from the proceeds to be derived from the sale of any
    revenue bonds for permanent financing authorized to be
    issued under Sections 5 and 6 of this Act, and from the
    property acquired with the proceeds of the notes.
        Contemporaneously with the issue of revenue bonds as
    provided by this Act, all interim notes, even though they
    may not then have matured, shall be paid, both principal
    and interest to date of payment, from the funds derived
    from the sale of revenue bonds for the permanent financing
    and such interim notes shall be surrendered and canceled.
        2. The Authority, in order further to secure the
    payment of the interim notes, is, in addition to the
    foregoing, authorized and empowered to make any other or
    additional covenants, terms and conditions not
    inconsistent with the provisions of subparagraph (a) of
    this Section, and do any and all acts and things as may be
    necessary or convenient or desirable in order to secure
    payment of its interim notes, or in the discretion of the
    Authority, as will tend to make the interim notes more
    acceptable to lenders, notwithstanding that the covenants,
    acts or things may not be enumerated herein; however,
    nothing contained in this subparagraph shall authorize the
    Authority to secure the payment of the interim notes out of
    property or facilities, other than the facilities acquired
    with the proceeds of the interim notes, and any net income
    and revenue derived from the facilities and the proceeds of
    revenue bonds as hereinabove provided.
    (e) Convey property, without charge, to the State or to the
appropriate corporate agency of the State or to any public
community college district board if and when all debts which
have been secured by the income from such property have been
paid.
    (f) Enter into contracts regarding any matter connected
with any corporate purpose within the objects and purposes of
this Act.
    (g) Employ agents and employees necessary to carry out the
duties and purposes of the Authority.
    (h) Adopt all necessary by-laws, rules and regulations for
the conduct of the business and affairs of the Authority, and
for the management and use of facilities and sites acquired
under the powers granted by this Act.
    (i) Have and use a common seal and alter the same at
pleasure.
    The Interim notes shall constitute State debt of the State
of Illinois within the meaning of any of the provisions of the
Constitution and statutes of the State of Illinois.
    No member, officer, agent or employee of the Authority, nor
any other person who executes interim notes, shall be liable
personally by reason of the issuance thereof.
    With respect to instruments for the payment of money issued
under this Section either before, on, or after the effective
date of this amendatory Act of 1989, it is and always has been
the intention of the General Assembly (i) that the Omnibus Bond
Acts are and always have been supplementary grants of power to
issue instruments in accordance with the Omnibus Bond Acts,
regardless of any provision of this Act that may appear to be
or to have been more restrictive than those Acts, (ii) that the
provisions of this Section are not a limitation on the
supplementary authority granted by the Omnibus Bond Acts, and
(iii) that instruments issued under this Section within the
supplementary authority granted by the Omnibus Bond Acts are
not invalid because of any provision of this Act that may
appear to be or to have been more restrictive than those Acts.

purchase, has an interest, or setting aside any lien under the
certificate filed under this Code shall not be entered, until
the claimant makes reimbursement to the city, village or
incorporated town or its assignee holding the certificate of
purchase. The county clerk is entitled to a fee of $5 in
counties with 3,000,000 or more inhabitants and $2 in counties
with less than 3,000,000 inhabitants for preparing the estimate
of the amount required to redeem. The estimate of the county
clerk is prima facie evidence in all courts of the amount due
to such city, village or incorporated town or its assignee.

    Section 95-10-50. The Local Government Property Transfer
Act is amended by changing Sections 2 and 4 as follows:
 
    (50 ILCS 605/2)  (from Ch. 30, par. 157)
    Sec. 2. If the territory of any municipality shall be
wholly within, coextensive with, or partly within and partly
without the corporate limits of any other municipality, or if
the municipality is a school district and the territory of the
school district is adjacent to the boundaries of any other
school district, and the first mentioned municipality (herein
called "transferee municipality"), shall by ordinance declare
that it is necessary or convenient for it to use, occupy or
improve any real estate held by the last mentioned municipality
(herein called the "transferor municipality") in the making of
any public improvement or for any public purpose, the corporate
authorities of the transferor municipality shall have the power
to transfer all of the right, title and interest held by it
immediately prior to such transfer, in and to such real estate,
whether located within or without either or both of said
municipalities, to the transferee municipality upon such terms
as may be agreed upon by the corporate authorities of both
municipalities, in the manner and upon the conditions
following:
    (a) If such real estate shall be held by the transferor
municipality without restriction, the said municipality shall
have power to grant or convey such real estate or any portion
thereof to the transferee municipality upon such terms as may
be agreed upon by the corporate authorities of both
municipalities, by an instrument of conveyance signed by the
mayor, president or other chief executive of the transferor
municipality, attested by its clerk or secretary and sealed
with its corporate seal, all duly authorized by a resolution
passed by the vote of 2/3 of the members of the legislative
body of the transferor municipality then holding office, and
duly recorded in the office of the recorder in the county in
which said real estate is located. Provided, however, that any
municipality may, in the manner above provided, convey real
estate to a Public Building Commission organized and existing
pursuant to "An Act to authorize the creation of Public
Building Commissions and to define their rights, powers and
duties", approved July 5, 1955, as amended, when duly
authorized by a majority vote of the members of the legislative
body of such municipality then holding office whenever
provision is made in the conveyance for a reverter of the real
estate to such transferor municipality. The transferee
municipality shall thereafter have the right to use, occupy or
improve the real estate so transferred for any municipal or
public purpose and shall hold said real estate by the same
right, title and interest by which the transferor municipality
held said real estate immediately prior to said transfer.
    (b) If any such real estate shall be held by the transferor
municipality subject to or limited by any restriction, and the
transferee municipality shall desire the use, occupation or
improvement thereof free from said restriction, the transferor
municipality (or the transferee municipality, in the name of
and for and on behalf of the transferor municipality, but
without subjecting the transferor municipality to any expense
without the consent of its corporate authorities), shall have
the power to secure from its grantor, or grantors, their heirs,
successors, assigns, or others, a release of any or all of such
restrictions upon such terms as may be agreed upon between
either of said municipalities and the person or persons
entitled to the benefit of said restrictions. Upon the
recording of any such release the transferor municipality shall
then have the powers granted in paragraph (a) of this Section.
    (c) If either the transferor municipality or the transferee
municipality shall be unable to secure a release of any
restriction as above provided, the transferor municipality (or
the transferee municipality in the name of and for and in
behalf of the transferor municipality, but without subjecting
the transferor municipality to any expense without the consent
of its corporate authorities), shall have the power to file in
any circuit court a petition for the purpose of removing or
releasing said restriction and determining the compensation,
if any, to be paid in consequence thereof to the owner or
owners of said real estate, for any right, title or interest
which they or any of them may or might have in and to any such
real estate arising out of said restriction. If any
compensation shall be awarded, the same shall be measured by
the actual damage, if any, to the owner or owners of said real
estate, resulting from the removal or release of said
restriction, and shall be determined as of the date of the
filing of said petition. Upon the payment of such compensation
as may be awarded, if any, the transferor municipality shall
have the powers granted in paragraph (a) of this Section, and
said transferor municipality shall grant and convey the said
real estate to the transferee municipality upon the terms and
conditions theretofore agreed upon by the said municipalities
and in the manner provided for in paragraph (a) of this
Section.
    (d) If the transferor municipality shall hold an easement
in any real estate for a particular purpose different from the
purpose for which the transferee municipality shall desire to
use, occupy or improve said real estate, the transferor
municipality (or the transferee municipality in the name of and
for and in behalf of the transferor municipality, but without
subjecting the transferor municipality to any expense without
the consent of its corporate authorities), shall have the power
to file in any circuit court a petition for the purpose of
terminating said easement and securing the right to use, occupy
and improve any such real estate for the purpose or purposes
set forth in said petition, and for determining the
compensation, if any, to be paid in consequence thereof to the
owner, or owners of said real estate. If any compensation shall
be awarded, the same shall be measured by the actual damage, if
any, to the owner or owners of said real estate, resulting from
the termination of the said easement and the granting of the
right sought in said petition, and shall be determined as of
the date of the filing of said petition. Upon the payment of
such compensation as may be awarded, if any, the easement held
by the transferor municipality shall in the final order entered
in such proceeding be declared terminated and the right of the
transferee municipality in said real estate shall be declared.
If the transferee municipality shall desire to use, occupy or
improve said real estate for the same purpose authorized by the
easement held by the transferor municipality, the transferor
municipality shall have the power to transfer said easement to
the transferee municipality by instrument of conveyance as
provided for in paragraph (a).
    (e) If such real estate shall have been acquired or
improved by the transferor municipality under the Local
Improvements Act, or under the said Act in conjunction with any
other Act, and the times fixed for the payment of all
installments of the special assessments therefor have not
elapsed at the time the transferor and transferee
municipalities shall have reached an agreement for the transfer
of said real estate, the transferee municipality shall deposit
with the transferor municipality to be placed in the special
assessment funds authorized to be collected to pay the cost of
acquiring or improving said real estate, an amount sufficient
to pay (1) the installments of said special assessments not due
and payable at the time of the agreement for said transfer, and
(2) the amounts paid in advance by any property owner on
account of said special assessments, which, had such amounts
not been paid in advance, would have been due and payable after
the date of such agreement, and the transferor municipality
shall upon the receipt of such amount cause orders to be
entered in the courts in which said special assessments were
confirmed, cancelling the installments becoming due and
payable after the said time at which the transferor and
transferee municipalities shall have reached an agreement for
the transfer of said real estate, and releasing the respective
lots, tracts, and parcels of real estate assessed in any such
proceedings from the installments of the said assessments in
this paragraph authorized to be cancelled. The transferor
municipality shall after the entry of such orders of
cancellation refund to any property owner who has paid the same
in advance, any amounts which otherwise would have been due and
payable after the said time at which the transferor and
transferee municipalities shall have reached an agreement for
the transfer of said real estate. Upon the entry of such orders
of cancellation the transferor municipality shall then have the
powers granted in paragraph (a) of this Section.
    (f) The procedure, for the removal of any restriction upon
the real estate of the transferor municipality, for the
termination of any easement of the transferor municipality in
said real estate and the declaration of another or different
right in the transferee municipality in said real estate, and
for the ascertainment of just compensation therefor, shall be
as near as may be like that provided for the exercise of the
power of eminent domain under the Eminent Domain Act Article
VII of the Code of Civil Procedure.
    (g) If any property shall be damaged by the release or
removal of any restrictions upon, or the termination of any
easement in, or the granting of a new right in any real estate
held by the transferor municipality, the same shall be
ascertained and paid as provided by law.

    (50 ILCS 605/4)  (from Ch. 30, par. 158a)
    Sec. 4. Any municipality shall have the power upon
resolution passed by a two-thirds vote of the members of its
legislative body then holding office, to transfer all of the
right, title and interest held by it immediately prior to such
transfer, in and to any real estate, whether located within or
without such municipality, to the State of Illinois, for any
authorized purpose of state government, upon such terms and
conditions as may be agreed upon by the transferor municipality
and the State of Illinois, and the State of Illinois is
authorized to accept the title or interest in such real estate
so conveyed; except that a majority vote of the members of such
legislative body then holding office is sufficient for the
dedication by any municipality of any area as a nature preserve
as provided in the "Illinois Natural Areas Preservation Act" as
now or hereafter amended. If such real estate is held by the
transferor municipality subject to or limited by any
restriction, the State of Illinois, by the Secretary of
Transportation or by the Director of any state department, or
the Chairman or President of any commission, board or agency of
the State vested by law with the power, duty or function of the
State Government for which said property is to be used by the
State after its acquisition, may remove such restriction
through purchase, agreement or condemnation. Any such
condemnation proceedings shall be brought and maintained by the
State of Illinois and shall conform, as nearly as may be, with
the procedure provided for the exercise of the power of eminent
domain under the Eminent Domain Act Article VII of the Code of
Civil Procedure.

    Section 95-10-60. The Township Code is amended by changing
Section 115-55 as follows:
 
    (60 ILCS 1/115-55)
    Sec. 115-55. (a) The board may acquire by gift, legacy,
purchase, condemnation in the manner provided for the exercise
of the right of eminent domain under the Eminent Domain Act
Article VII of the Code of Civil Procedure and except as
otherwise provided in this subsection, lease, agreement, or
otherwise the fee or any lesser right or interest in real
property that is open land and may hold that property with or

acquire property by condemnation, and no other township has
authority under this Article to acquire by condemnation (i)
property that is used for farming or agricultural purposes;

    commenced if (i) at least 30 days before the filing of a
    petition under Section 115-10, an application for a
    preliminary plan or preliminary planned unit development
    has been filed with the applicable governmental entity or,
    if neither is required, a building permit has been obtained
    at least 30 days before the filing of a petition under
    Section 115-10; (ii) mass grading of the property has
    commenced; and (iii) within 180 days of the date the open
    space plan is recommended for approval by the board under
    Section 115-5 or by petition of the voters under Section

    crops, (ii) the feeding, breeding, and management of
    livestock, (iii) dairying, or (iv) any other agricultural
    or horticultural use or combination of those uses, with the
    intention of securing substantial income from those
    activities, and has been so used for the 3 years
    immediately preceding the filing of a condemnation action.
    Real property used for farming or agricultural purposes
    includes land devoted to and qualifying for payments or
    other compensation under a soil conservation program under
    an agreement with an agency of the federal government and
    also includes the construction and use of dwellings and
    other buildings customarily associated with farming and
    agricultural uses when associated with those uses.
    (c) If a township's acquisitions of open land, or interests
in open land when combined with other lands in the township
held for open space purposes by other governmental entities,
equals 30% of the total acreage of the township, then the
township may not acquire additional open land by condemnation.
    (d) Any parcel of land that is included in an open space
plan adopted by a township that has not been acquired by the
township under this Section within 3 years, or within 2 years
with respect to existing open space programs, after the later
of (i) July 29, 1988, or (ii) the date of the passage of the
referendum may not thereafter be acquired by condemnation by
the township under this Section, except that if an action in
condemnation to acquire the parcel is filed under this Section
within that 3 year or 2 year period, as applicable, the parcel
may be acquired by condemnation by the township notwithstanding
the fact that the condemnation action may not be concluded
within the 3 year or 2 year period, as applicable.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a parcel of land cannot be
acquired by condemnation under subsection (a) because of its
use for farming or agricultural purposes, the 3 year or 2 year
period, as applicable, shall be tolled until the date the
parcel ceases to be used for farming or agricultural purposes.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the fee or any lesser right or
interest in real property that is open land may be acquired
after the 3 year or 2 year period, as applicable, by any means
authorized under subsection (a) other than condemnation.

    Section 95-10-65. The Illinois Municipal Code is amended by
changing Sections 11-19-10, 11-28-1, 11-61-1a, 11-63-5,
11-65-3, 11-66-10, 11-71-1, 11-71-10, 11-74.2-9, 11-75-5,

follows:
 
    (65 ILCS 5/11-19-10)  (from Ch. 24, par. 11-19-10)
    Sec. 11-19-10. Every city, village, and incorporated town
may acquire by purchase, gift or condemnation any real property
within or without the corporate limits of such city, village or
incorporated town for the purpose of providing facilities for
the disposal of garbage, refuse and ashes. In all cases where
property is acquired or sought to be acquired by condemnation,
the procedure shall be, as nearly as may be, like that provided
for the exercise of the right of eminent domain under the
Eminent Domain Act Article VII of the Code of Civil Procedure,
as heretofore and hereafter amended. In any village containing
a population of less than 15,000 where the property sought to
be acquired is to be used for a refuse derived fuel system and
for industrial development that will utilize steam and
electricity derived from such system, such property may be
acquired pursuant to the "quick-take" procedures prescribed in
Section 7-103 of such Code (now Article 20 of the Eminent
Domain Act) if such procedures are commenced on or before June
30, 1987. As used herein, "refuse derived fuel system" means a
facility designed to convert refuse and other waste materials
into steam and electricity to be used for industrial
development and other commercial purposes.
    If a city, village or incorporated town joins with one or
more than one other city, village or incorporated town or
county in the exercise of the powers granted by this section,
(a) any real property purchased shall be taken in the names of
the contracting cities, villages, incorporated towns, and
counties, if any; (b) in case of condemnation, the city,
village or incorporated town in which the real property lies,
or the city, village or incorporated town nearest to the area
of the real property to be condemned, shall institute
condemnation proceedings; Provided, (1) any real property so
acquired shall be held in trust by such city, village or
incorporated town for the benefit of the contracting cities,
villages, incorporated towns, and counties, all of which shall
bear the expense of condemnation according to agreement; (2)
when real property acquired by condemnation is no longer used
for joint disposal of garbage, refuse and ashes, it shall be
sold by the city, village or incorporated town in whose name it
is held and the proceeds shall be distributed to the

corporation if the corporate authorities first determine by
resolution that such lease is in the best public interest and
stating the reasons therefor. Such lease shall be granted by an
ordinance and shall not exceed 99 years in length.
    The lease shall specify the purpose for which the leased
space may be used. If the purpose is to erect in the space a
building or other structure attached to the lot, the lease
shall contain a reasonably accurate description of the building
to be erected and of the manner in which it shall be imposed
upon or around the lot. In such case, the lease shall provide
for use by the lessee of such areas of the surface of such lot
as may be essential for the support of the building or other
structure to be erected as well as for the connection of
essential public or private utilities to such building or
structure.

be executed by the lessee in such manner as may be necessary to
bind him. After being so executed, the lease shall be duly
acknowledged and thereupon shall be recorded in the office of
the recorder of the county in which is located the land
involved in the lease.
    If, in the judgment of the corporate authorities, the
public interest requires that any building erected in the
leased space be removed so that a street, alley, or public
place may be restored to its original condition, the lessor
municipality may condemn the lessee's interest in the leased
space by proceeding in the manner provided for the exercise of
the right of eminent domain under the Eminent Domain Act
Article VII of the Code of Civil Procedure. After payment of
such damages as may be fixed in the condemnation proceedings,
the municipality may remove all buildings or other structures
from the leased space and restore the buildings adjoining the
leased space to their original condition.
    Any building or other structure erected above a municipally
owned parking lot shall be subject to all property taxes levied
on private property within the same taxing authorities unless
such building or structure is wholly owned by the municipality
and wholly used for governmental purposes.
    No provision of this section shall be construed to abrogate
or vary the terms of any mortgage in effect upon the effective
date of this amendatory act of 1961 relative to the use of any

estate as provided in this Division, the corporate authorities
may proceed by gift, purchase or condemnation to acquire the
fee simple title to all real property lying within a
redevelopment area, including easements and reversionary
interests in the streets, alleys and other public places lying
within such area; if the property is to be obtained by
condemnation, such power of condemnation may be exercised only
when at least 85% of the land located within the boundaries of
each plan has been acquired previously by the corporate
authorities or private organization pursuant to the
implementation of the plan through good faith negotiations and
such negotiations are unsuccessful in acquiring the remaining
land. If any such real property is subject to an easement the
corporate authorities in their discretion, may acquire the fee
simple title to such real property subject to such easement if
they determine that such easement will not interfere with
carrying out the redevelopment plan. If any such real property
is already devoted to a public use it may nevertheless be
acquired, provided that no property belonging to the United
States of America, the State of Illinois or any municipality
may be acquired without the consent of such governmental unit
and that no property devoted to a public use belonging to a
corporation subject to the jurisdiction of the Illinois
Commerce Commission may be acquired without the approval of the
Illinois Commerce Commission. In carrying out the provisions of
this Division, the corporate authorities are vested with the
power to exercise the right of eminent domain. Condemnation
proceedings instituted by the corporate authorities shall be in
the manner provided for the exercise of the right of eminent
domain under the Eminent Domain Act Article VII of the Code of

may be determined in accordance with the following valuation
principles.
    The fair cash market value of existing facilities, whether
real or personal, may be determined by utilizing the net
earnings which are attributable to the facilities in question
for the preceding fiscal year on the date the condemnation
petition is filed, over the remaining useful life of the
facilities. Said earnings may be capitalized under an annuity
capitalization method and discounted to present value. The fair
cash market value of any extensions, additions or improvements
of the existing system made subsequent to the date that the
condemnation petition is filed may be determined by utilizing
the probable net earnings attributable to the facilities in
question over the remaining life of the facilities. The
probable earnings may be capitalized under an annuity
capitalization method and discounted to present value.

facilities are situated may be determined in accordance with
the foregoing principles, giving due account to the special use
of the property for water and sewerage purposes.

jurisdiction over the existing system, shall be required.

        which the Commission may borrow funds to pay or redeem
        its obligations, and purchase or remarketing
        arrangements for assuring the ability of owners of the
        obligations to sell or to have redeemed the
        obligations. The Commission may enter into contracts
        and may agree to pay fees to persons providing those
        arrangements, including from bond or note proceeds.
            (C) The Commission's action authorizing the
        issuance of bonds or notes may provide that interest
        rates may vary depending on criteria set forth in the

        cause bonds or notes to be remarketable at a price
        equal to their principal amount, and may provide for
        appointment of a national banking association, bank
        trust company, investment banker, or other financial
        institution to serve as a remarketing agent in that
        connection. Notwithstanding any other provision of
        law, the resolution or ordinance of the Commission
        authorizing the issuance of its bonds or notes may
        provide that alternative interest rates or provisions
        will apply when the bonds or notes are held by a person
        providing a letter of credit or other credit
        enhancement arrangement for those bonds or notes.
            (D) The authorization of the issuance of any bonds
        or notes under this subsection shall constitute a
        contract with the holders of the bonds and notes. The
        resolution or ordinance may contain such covenants and
        restrictions regarding the project and the contracts,
        the issuance of additional bonds or notes by the
        Commission, the security for the bonds and notes, and
        any other matters deemed necessary or advisable by the
        Board to assure the payment of the bonds or notes of
        the Commission.
            (E) The resolution or ordinance authorizing the
        issuance of bonds or notes by the Commission shall
        provide for the application of revenues derived from
        the operation of the Commission's projects, revenues
        received from its members including revenue from
        contracts for the use of the Commission's projects, and
        revenues from its investment earnings to the payment of
        the operating expenses of the projects; the provision
        of adequate depreciation, reserve, or replacement
        funds for the project, planned projects, and bonds or
        notes; and the payment of principal, premium, and
        interest on the bonds or notes of the Commission
        including amounts for the purchase of the bonds or
        notes. The resolution or ordinance may provide that
        revenues of the Commission so derived and other
        receipts of the Commission which may be applied to
        those purposes shall be placed in separate funds and
        used for those purposes and also may provide that
        revenues not required for those purposes may be used
        for any proper purpose of the Commission or may be
        returned to members. Any notes of the Commission may,
        in addition, be secured by a pledge of proceeds of
        bonds to be issued by the Commission, as specified in
        the resolution or ordinance authorizing the issuance
        of the notes.
        (F) All bonds and notes of the Commission issued under
    this subsection shall be revenue bonds or notes. The bonds
    or notes shall have no claim for payment other than from
    revenues of the Commission derived from the operation of
    its projects, revenues received from its members including
    from contracts for the use of the Commission's projects,
    bond or note proceeds, other receipts of the Commission as
    the intergovernmental agreement establishing the
    Commission may authorize to be pledged to the payment of
    bonds or notes, and investment earnings on the foregoing,
    all as and to the extent as provided in the resolution or
    ordinance of the Board authorizing the issuance of the
    bonds or notes. Bonds or notes issued by the Commission
    under this subsection shall not constitute an indebtedness
    of the Commission or of any member within the meaning of
    any constitutional or statutory limitation. It shall be

Act is amended by changing Section 1 as follows:
 
    (70 ILCS 1290/1)  (from Ch. 105, par. 326)
    Sec. 1. The corporate authorities of cities and park
districts having the control or supervision of any public park
or parks, are hereby authorized to purchase, erect and maintain
within any public park or parks under the control or
supervision of such corporate authorities, edifices to be used
as aquariums or as museums of art, industry, science or natural
or other history, or to permit the directors or trustees of any
corporation or society organized for the construction or
maintenance and operation of an aquarium or museum as
hereinabove described to erect, enlarge, ornament, build,
rebuild, rehabilitate, improve, maintain and operate its
aquarium or museum or museums within any public park now or
hereafter under the control or supervision of any city or park
district, and to contract with any such directors or trustees
of any such aquarium, museum or museums relative to the
erection, enlargement, ornamentation, building, rebuilding,
rehabilitation, improvement, maintenance and operation
thereof. Any city or park district may charge, or permit such
an aquarium or museum to charge, an admission fee. Any such
aquarium or museum, however, shall be open without charge, when
accompanied by a teacher, to the children in actual attendance
upon grades kindergarten through twelve in any of the schools
in this State at all times. Any such aquarium or museum,
however, must be open to the public without charge for a period
equivalent to 52 days, at least 6 of which must be during the
period from June through August, each year. Notwithstanding
said provisions, charges may be made at any time for special

aquarium or museum for the education, entertainment or
convenience of visitors. The proceeds of such admission fees
and charges for special services and special facilities shall
be devoted exclusively to the purposes for which the tax
authorized by Section 2 hereof may be used. If any owner or
owners of any lands or lots abutting or fronting on any such
public park, or adjacent thereto, have any private right,
easement, interest or property in such public park appurtenant
to their lands or lots or otherwise, which would be interfered
with by the erection and maintenance of any aquarium or museum
as hereinbefore provided, or any right to have such public park
remain open or vacant and free from buildings, the corporate
authorities of the city or park district having control of such
park, may condemn the same in the manner prescribed for the
exercise of the right of eminent domain under the Eminent
Domain Act Article VII of the Code of Civil Procedure, as now
or hereafter amended.

diluting and flushing its sewer system and for the needs of the
inhabitants of the district. In the event that the trustees
shall be unable to agree with any person, corporation or
municipality upon the terms under which it may acquire such a
water supply under this act, then the right to obtain such a
supply may be acquired by condemnation in any court of
competent jurisdiction by proceedings in the manner as near as
may be as is provided for the exercise of the right of eminent
domain under the Eminent Domain Act Article VII of the Code of
Civil Procedure, as amended. The compensation or rates to be
paid for such supply of water and the manner of payment shall
be as may be determined by the decree or judgment of the court
wherein such proceedings may be had.

    Sec. 2.13. (a) The Authority may take and acquire
possession by eminent domain of any property or interest in

this Act. The power of eminent domain may be exercised by
ordinance of the Authority, and shall extend to all types of
interests in property, both real and personal (including
without limitation easements for access purposes to and rights
of concurrent usage of existing or planned public

    (b) The Authority shall exercise the power of eminent
domain granted in this Section in the manner provided for the

study done for the Authority, that such taking is necessary to
accomplish the purposes of this Act, that no feasible
alternatives to such taking exist, and that the advantages to
the public from such taking exceed the disadvantages to the
public of doing so. In any proceeding for the exercise of the
right of eminent domain for the taking by the Authority of
property used for public park, State forest, or forest preserve
purposes, the court shall not order the taking of such property
unless it has reviewed and concurred in the findings required
of the Authority by this paragraph. No property dedicated as a
nature preserve pursuant to the "Illinois Natural Areas
Preservation Act", as now or hereafter amended, may be acquired
in eminent domain by the Authority.

    Sec. 7. Powers of trustees.
    (a) The trustees shall have power to provide for the
requisite buildings, apparatus, and conveniences; to fix the
rates for tuition; to appoint such professors and instructors,
and to establish and provide for the management of such model
farms, model art, and other departments and professorships, as
may be required to teach, in the most thorough manner, such
branches of learning as are related to agriculture and the
mechanic arts, and military tactics, without excluding other
scientific and classical studies. The trustees shall, upon the
written request of an employee withhold from the compensation
of that employee any dues, payments or contributions payable by
such employee to any labor organization as defined in the
Illinois Educational Labor Relations Act. Under such
arrangement, an amount shall be withheld from each regular
payroll period which is equal to the pro rata share of the
annual dues plus any payments or contributions, and the
trustees shall transmit such withholdings to the specified
labor organization within 10 working days from the time of the
withholding. They may accept the endowments and voluntary
professorships or departments in the University, from any
person or persons or corporations who may offer the same, and,
at any regular meeting of the board, may prescribe rules and
regulations in relation to such endowments and declare on what
general principles they may be admitted: Provided, that such
special voluntary endowments or professorships shall not be
incompatible with the true design and scope of the act of
congress, or of this Act: Provided, that no student shall at
any time be allowed to remain in or about the University in
idleness, or without full mental or industrial occupation: And
provided further, that the trustees, in the exercise of any of
the powers conferred by this Act, shall not create any
liability or indebtedness in excess of the funds in the hands
of the treasurer of the University at the time of creating such
liability or indebtedness, and which may be specially and
properly applied to the payment of the same. Any lease to the
trustees of lands, buildings or facilities which will support
scientific research and development in such areas as high
technology, super computing, microelectronics, biotechnology,
robotics, physics and engineering shall be for a term not to
exceed 18 years, and may grant to the trustees the option to
purchase the lands, buildings or facilities. The lease shall
recite that it is subject to termination and cancellation in
any year for which the General Assembly fails to make an
appropriation to pay the rent payable under the terms of the
lease.
    Leases for the purposes described herein exceeding 5 years
shall have the approval of the Illinois Board of Higher
Education.
    The Board of Trustees may, directly or in cooperation with
other institutions of higher education, acquire by purchase or
lease or otherwise, and construct, enlarge, improve, equip,
complete, operate, control and manage medical research and high
technology parks, together with the necessary lands,
buildings, facilities, equipment and personal property
therefor, to encourage and facilitate (a) the location and
development of business and industry in the State of Illinois,
and (b) the increased application and development of technology
and (c) the improvement and development of the State's economy.
The Board of Trustees may lease to nonprofit corporations all
or any part of the land, buildings, facilities, equipment or
other property included in a medical research and high
technology park upon such terms and conditions as the
University of Illinois may deem advisable and enter into any
contract or agreement with such nonprofit corporations as may
be necessary or suitable for the construction, financing,
operation and maintenance and management of any such park; and
may lease to any person, firm, partnership or corporation,
either public or private, any part or all of the land,
building, facilities, equipment or other property of such park
for such purposes and upon such rentals, terms and conditions
as the University may deem advisable; and may finance all or
part of the cost of any such park, including the purchase,
lease, construction, reconstruction, improvement, remodeling,
addition to, and extension and maintenance of all or part of
such high technology park, and all equipment and furnishings,
by legislative appropriations, government grants, contracts,
private gifts, loans, receipts from the operation of such high
technology park, rentals and similar receipts; and may make its
other facilities and services available to tenants or other
occupants of any such park at rates which are reasonable and
appropriate.
    The Trustees shall have power (a) to purchase real property
and easements, and (b) to acquire real property and easements
in the manner provided by law for the exercise of the right of
eminent domain, and in the event negotiations for the
acquisition of real property or easements for making any
improvement which the Trustees are authorized to make shall
have proven unsuccessful and the Trustees shall have by
resolution adopted a schedule or plan of operation for the
execution of the project and therein made a finding that it is
necessary to take such property or easements immediately or at
some specified later date in order to comply with the schedule,
the Trustees may acquire such property or easements in the same
manner provided in Article 20 of the Eminent Domain Act
(quick-take procedure) Sections 7-103 through 7-112 of the Code
of Civil Procedure.
    The Board of Trustees also shall have power to agree with
the State's Attorney of the county in which any properties of
the Board are located to pay for services rendered by the
various taxing districts for the years 1944 through 1949 and to
pay annually for services rendered thereafter by such district
such sums as may be determined by the Board upon properties
used solely for income producing purposes, title to which is
held by said Board of Trustees, upon properties leased to
members of the staff of the University of Illinois, title to
which is held in trust for said Board of Trustees and upon
properties leased to for-profit entities the title to which
properties is held by the Board of Trustees. A certified copy
of any such agreement made with the State's Attorney shall be
filed with the County Clerk and such sums shall be distributed
to the respective taxing districts by the County Collector in
such proportions that each taxing district will receive
therefrom such proportion as the tax rate of such taxing
district bears to the total tax rate that would be levied
against such properties if they were not exempt from taxation
under the Property Tax Code.
    The Board of Trustees of the University of Illinois,
subject to the applicable civil service law, may appoint
persons to be members of the University of Illinois Police
Department. Members of the Police Department shall be peace
officers and as such have all powers possessed by policemen in
cities, and sheriffs, including the power to make arrests on
view or warrants of violations of state statutes and city or
county ordinances, except that they may exercise such powers
only in counties wherein the University and any of its branches
or properties are located when such is required for the
protection of university properties and interests, and its
students and personnel, and otherwise, within such counties,
when requested by appropriate state or local law enforcement
officials; provided, however, that such officer shall have no
power to serve and execute civil processes.
    The Board of Trustees must authorize to each member of the
University of Illinois Police Department and to any other
employee of the University of Illinois exercising the powers of
a peace officer a distinct badge that, on its face, (i) clearly
states that the badge is authorized by the University of
Illinois and (ii) contains a unique identifying number. No
other badge shall be authorized by the University of Illinois.
Nothing in this paragraph prohibits the Board of Trustees from
issuing shields or other distinctive identification to
employees not exercising the powers of a peace officer if the
Board of Trustees determines that a shield or distinctive
identification is needed by the employee to carry out his or
her responsibilities.
    The Board of Trustees may own, operate, or govern, by or
through the College of Medicine at Peoria, a managed care
community network established under subsection (b) of Section
5-11 of the Illinois Public Aid Code.
    The powers of the trustees as herein designated are subject
to the provisions of "An Act creating a Board of Higher
Education, defining its powers and duties, making an
appropriation therefor, and repealing an Act herein named",
approved August 22, 1961, as amended.
    The Board of Trustees shall have the authority to adopt all
administrative rules which may be necessary for the effective
administration, enforcement and regulation of all matters for
which the Board has jurisdiction or responsibility.
    (b) To assist in the provision of buildings and facilities
beneficial to, useful for, or supportive of University

    facilities by purchase, including installments payable
    over a period allowed by law, by lease over a term of such
    duration as the Board of Trustees shall determine, or by
    exercise of the power of eminent domain;
        (2) Sub-lease or contract to purchase through
    installments all or any portion of buildings or facilities
    for such duration and on such terms as the Board of
    Trustees shall determine, including a term that exceeds 5
    years, provided that each such lease or purchase contract
    shall be and shall recite that it is subject to termination
    and cancellation in any year for which the General Assembly
    fails to make an appropriation to pay the rent or purchase
    installments payable under the terms of such lease or
    purchase contract; and
        (3) Sell property without compliance with the State
    Property Control Act and retain proceeds in the University
    Treasury in a special, separate development fund account
    which the Auditor General shall examine to assure
    compliance with this Act.
Any buildings or facilities to be developed on the land shall
be buildings or facilities that, in the determination of the
Board of Trustees, in whole or in part: (i) are for use by the
University; or (ii) otherwise advance the interests of the
University, including, by way of example, residential
facilities for University staff and students and commercial
facilities which provide services needed by the University
community. Revenues from the development fund account may be
withdrawn by the University for the purpose of demolition and
the processes associated with demolition; routine land and
property acquisition; extension of utilities; streetscape
work; landscape work; surface and structure parking;
sidewalks, recreational paths, and street construction; and
lease and lease purchase arrangements and the professional
services associated with the planning and development of the
area. Moneys from the development fund account used for any
other purpose must be deposited into and appropriated from the
General Revenue Fund. Buildings or facilities leased to an
entity or person other than the University shall not be subject
to any limitations applicable to a State supported college or
university under any law. All development on the land and all
use of any buildings or facilities shall be subject to the
control and approval of the Board of Trustees.

by changing Section 9 as follows:
 
    (310 ILCS 10/9)  (from Ch. 67 1/2, par. 9)
    Sec. 9. Whenever it shall be deemed necessary by an

conferred to take or acquire the fee of any real property in
the area of operation or any interest therein or right with
respect thereto, such Authority may acquire the same directly
or through its agent or agents from the owner or owners thereof
or may acquire the same by the exercise of eminent domain in
the manner provided by the Eminent Domain Act Article VII of
the Code of Civil Procedure, as amended.
    If any of such property is devoted to a public use it may
nevertheless be acquired, provided that no property belonging
to a government may be acquired without its consent and that no
property belonging to a corporation subject to the jurisdiction
of the Illinois Commerce Commission may be acquired without the
approval of the Illinois Commerce Commission.
    The power of eminent domain shall apply not only to
improved or unimproved property which may be acquired for or as

projects, but also to: (a) any improved or unimproved property
the acquisition of which is necessary or appropriate for the
rehabilitation or redevelopment of any blighted or slum area,
or (b) any improved or unimproved property which the Authority
may require to carry out the provisions of this Act. Such power
may be exercised by the Housing Authority on its own initiative
or as an agent of the city, village, incorporated town, county

lease to: (a) a housing corporation operating under "An Act in

redevelopment project. No sale or lease shall be made hereunder
to any of the aforesaid corporations, associations or
individuals unless a plan has been approved by the Authority
and the Department for the development or redevelopment of such
property and unless the purchaser or lessee furnishes the
Authority a bond, with satisfactory sureties, in an amount not
less than 10% of the cost of such development or redevelopment,
conditioned on the completion of such development or
redevelopment in accordance with the approved plan; provided
that the requirement of the bond may be waived by the
Department if it is satisfied of the financial ability of the
purchaser or lessee to complete such development or
redevelopment in accordance with the approved plan. To further
assure that the real property so sold or leased shall be used
in accordance with the plan, the Department may require the
purchaser or lessee to execute in writing such undertakings as
the Department deems necessary to obligate such purchaser or
lessee (1) to use the property for the purposes presented in
plans; (2) to commence and complete the building of the
improvements designated in the plan within the periods of time
that the Department fixes as reasonable; and (3) to comply with
such other conditions as are necessary to carry out the purpose
of this Act. Any such property may be sold pursuant to this
section for any legal consideration in an amount to be approved
by the Department.
    If the area of operation of a housing authority includes a
city, village or incorporated town having a population in
excess of 500,000 as determined by the last preceding Federal
census, no real property or interest in real property shall be
acquired in such municipality by the housing authority until
such time as the housing authority has advised the governing
body of such municipality of the description of the real
property, or interest therein, proposed to be acquired, and the
governing body of the municipality has approved the acquisition
thereof by the housing authority.
    A "blighted or slum area" means any area of not less, in
the aggregate, than one acre, excepting that in any
municipality having a population in excess of 500,000, as
determined by the last preceding Federal census, a "blighted or
slum area" means any area of not less in the aggregate of2
acres which area, in either case, has been designated by
municipal ordinance or by the Authority as an integrated
project for rehabilitation, development or redevelopment,
where (a) buildings or improvements, by reason of dilapidation,
obsolescence, overcrowding, faulty arrangement or design, lack
of ventilation, light or sanitary facilities, excessive land
coverage, deleterious land use or layout or any combination of
these factors, are a detriment to public safety, health or
morals, or welfare, or (b) there exists platted land which is
predominantly open and which, because of obsolete platting,
diversity of ownership, deterioration of structures or of site
improvements, or otherwise substantially impairs or arrests
the sound growth of the community and which is to be developed
for predominantly residential uses, or (c) there exists open
unplatted land necessary for sound community growth which is to
be developed for predominantly residential uses, or (d) parcels
of land remain undeveloped because of improper platting,
delinquent taxes or special assessments, scattered or
uncertain ownerships, clouds on title, artificial values due to
excessive utility costs, or any other impediment to the use of
such area for predominantly residential uses; provided, that if
in any city, village or incorporated town there exists a land
clearance commission, created under the "Blighted Areas
Redevelopment Act of 1947", having the same area of operation
as a housing authority created in and for any such
municipality, such housing authority shall have no power to
acquire land of the character described in sub-paragraphs (b),
(c) or (d) of the definition of "blighted or slum area", in
this paragraph for the purpose of development or redevelopment
by private enterprise.
    The Housing Authority shall have power to hold or use any
such property for uses authorized by this Act, or to sell,
lease or exchange such property as is not required for such
uses by the Authority. In case of sale or lease to other than a
public corporation or public agency, notice shall be given and
bids shall be received in the manner provided by Section
11-76-2 of the Illinois Municipal Code, as amended, and bids
may be accepted by vote of three of the five Commissioners of
the Authority; provided, however, that such requirement of
notice and bidding shall not apply to a sale or lease to any
individual, association or corporation described in the
preceding paragraph; nor to a sale or lease of an individual
dwelling unit in a project, to be used by the purchaser as a
dwelling for his family; nor to a sale or lease of a project or
part thereof to an association to be so used by its members. In
case of exchange of property for property privately owned,
three disinterested appraisers shall be appointed to appraise
the value of the property to be exchanged, and such exchange
shall not be made unless the property to be received by the
Authority is equal or greater in value than the property to be
exchanged therefor, or if less than such value, that the
difference shall be paid in money.

    Section 95-10-330. The Housing Development and
Construction Act is amended by changing Section 5 as follows:
 
    (310 ILCS 20/5)  (from Ch. 67 1/2, par. 57)
    Sec. 5. Any grants paid hereunder to a housing authority
shall be deposited in a separate fund and, subject to the
approval of the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity
Community Affairs, may be used for any or all of the following
purposes as the needs of the community may require: the
acquisition of land by purchase, gift or condemnation and the
improvement thereof, the purchase and installation of
temporary housing facilities, the construction of housing
units for rent or sale to veterans, the families of deceased
servicemen, and for persons and families who by reason of
overcrowded housing conditions or displacement by eviction,
fires or other calamities, or slum clearance or other private
or public project involving relocation, are in urgent need of
safe and sanitary housing, the making of grants in connection
with the sale or lease of real property as provided in the
following paragraph of this section, and for any and all
purposes authorized by the "Housing Authorities Act," approved
March 19, 1934, as amended, including administrative expenses
of the housing authorities in relation to the aforesaid
objectives, to the extent and for the purposes authorized and
approved by the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity
Community Affairs. Each housing authority is vested with power
to exercise the right of eminent domain for the purposes
authorized by this Act. Condemnation proceedings instituted by
any such authority shall be in all respects in the manner
provided for the exercise of the right of eminent domain under
the Eminent Domain Act Article VII of the Code of Civil
Procedure, as amended.
    In addition to the foregoing, and for the purpose of
facilitating the development and construction of housing,
housing authorities may, with the approval of the Department of
Commerce and Economic Opportunity Community Affairs, enter
into contracts and agreements for the sale or lease of real
property acquired by the Authority through the use of the grant
hereunder, and may sell or lease such property to (1) housing
corporations operating under "An Act in relation to housing,"
approved July 12, 1933, as amended; (2) neighborhood
redevelopment corporations operating under the "Neighborhood
Redevelopment Corporation Law," approved July 9, 1941; (3)
insurance companies operating under Article VIII of the
Illinois Insurance Code; (4) non-profit corporations organized
for the purpose of constructing, managing and operating housing
projects and the improvement of housing conditions, including
the sale or rental of housing units to persons in need thereof;
or (5) to any other individual, association or corporation,
including bona fide housing cooperatives, desiring to engage in
a development or redevelopment project. The term "corporation"
as used in this section, means a corporation organized under
the laws of this or any other state of the United States, or of
any country, which may legally make investments in this State
of the character herein prescribed, including foreign and alien
insurance companies as defined in Section 2 of the "Illinois
Insurance Code." No sale or lease shall be made hereunder to
any of the aforesaid corporations, associations or individuals
unless a plan approved by the Authority has been presented by
the purchaser or lessee for the development or redevelopment of
such property, together with a bond, with satisfactory
sureties, of not less than 10% of the cost of such development
or redevelopment, conditioned upon the completion of such
development or redevelopment; provided that the requirement of
the bond may be waived by the Department of Commerce and
Economic Opportunity Community Affairs if it is satisfied of
the financial ability of the purchaser or lessee to complete
such development or redevelopment in accordance with the
presented plan. To further assure that the real property so
sold or leased shall be used in accordance with the plan, the
Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity Community
Affairs may require the purchaser or lessee to execute in
writing such undertakings as the Department deems necessary to
obligate such purchaser or lessee (1) to use the property for
the purposes presented in the plan; (2) to commence and
complete the building of the improvements designated in the
plan within the periods of time that the Department of Commerce
and Economic Opportunity Community Affairs fixes as
reasonable, and (3) to comply with such other conditions as are
necessary to carry out the purposes of this Act. Any such
property may be sold pursuant to this section for any legal
consideration in an amount to be approved by the Department of
Commerce and Economic Opportunity Community Affairs. Subject
to the approval of the Department of Commerce and Economic
Opportunity Community Affairs, a housing authority may pay to
any non-profit corporation of the character described in this
section from grants made available from state funds, such sum
of money which, when added to the value of the land so sold or
leased to such non-profit corporation and the value of other
assets of such non-profit corporation available for use in the
project, will enable such non-profit corporation to obtain
Federal Housing Administration insured construction mortgages.
Any such authority may also sell, transfer, convey or assign to
any such non-profit corporation any personal property,
including building materials and supplies, as it deems
necessary to facilitate the completion of the development or
redevelopment by such non-profit corporation.
    If the area of operation of a housing authority includes a
city, village or incorporated town having a population in
excess of 500,000, as determined by the last preceding Federal
Census, no real property or interest in real property shall be
acquired in such municipality by the housing authority until
such time as the housing authority has advised the governing
body of such municipality of the description of the real
property, or interest therein, proposed to be acquired, and the
governing body of the municipality has approved the acquisition
thereof by the housing authority.

improved or unimproved real property the acquisition of which
is necessary or appropriate for the implementation of a
conservation plan for a conservation area as defined herein; to
remove or demolish substandard or other buildings and
structures from the property so acquired; to hold, improve,
mortgage and manage such properties; and to sell, lease, or
exchange such properties, provided that contracts for repair,

free and competitive bidding to the lowest responsible bidder
upon such bond and subject to such regulations as may be set by

sale or lease of any real property acquired under the
provisions of this Act such buyer or lessee must as a condition
of sale or lease, agree to improve and use such property
according to the conservation plan, and such agreement may be
made a covenant running with the land and on order of the

transfer real property and prior to the delivery of any
instrument of conveyance with respect thereto, invite
proposals from and make available all pertinent information to
redevelopers or any person interested in undertaking to
redevelop or rehabilitate a conservation area, or any part
thereof, provided that, in municipalities in which no newspaper

contain a description of the conservation area, the details of
the conservation plan relating to the property which the
purchaser shall undertake in writing to carry out and such
undertakings as the Department may deem necessary to obligate

rehabilitation, or construction of the improvements within the
periods of time which the Department fixes as reasonable and
(3) to comply with such other conditions as are necessary to
carry out the purposes of the Act. The Department may negotiate
with any persons for proposals for the purchase, lease or other
transfer of any real property acquired pursuant to this Act and
shall consider all redevelopment and rehabilitation proposals
submitted to it and the financial and legal ability of the
persons making such proposals to carry them out. The
Department, as agent for the municipality, at a public meeting,
notice of which shall have been published in a newspaper of
general circulation within the municipality at least 15 but not
more than 30 days prior to such meeting, may accept such
proposals as it deems to be in the public interest and in
furtherance of the purposes of this Act; provided that, all
sales or leases of real property shall be made at not less than
fair use value.

acquire by private purchase, acceptance, or by condemnation in
the manner provided for the exercise of the power of eminent
domain under the Eminent Domain Act Article VII of the Code of
Civil Procedure, any and all lands, buildings and grounds where
radioactive by-products and wastes produced by industrial,
medical, agricultural, scientific or other organizations can
be concentrated, stored or otherwise disposed in a manner
consistent with the public health and safety. Whenever, in the
judgment of the Director of Nuclear Safety, it is necessary to
relocate existing facilities for the construction, operation,
closure or long-term care of a facility for the safe and secure
disposal of low-level radioactive waste, the cost of relocating
such existing facilities may be deemed a part of the disposal
facility land acquisition and the Department of Nuclear Safety
may, on behalf of the State, pay such costs. Existing
facilities include public utilities, commercial or industrial
facilities, residential buildings, and such other public or
privately owned buildings as the Director of Nuclear Safety
deems necessary for relocation. The Department of Nuclear
Safety is authorized to operate a relocation program, and to
pay such costs of relocation as are provided in the federal
"Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition
Policies Act", Public Law 91-646. The Director of Nuclear
Safety is authorized to exceed the maximum payments provided
pursuant to the federal "Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real
Property Acquisition Policies Act" if necessary to assure the
provision of decent, safe, and sanitary housing, or to secure a
suitable alternate location. Payments issued under this
Section shall be made from the Low-level Radioactive Waste
Facility Development and Operation Fund established by the

the owners of such lands, if competent to contract, and the
highway commissioner or county superintendent, as the case may
be. Such damages may also be released by such owners, and in
such case the agreement or release shall be in writing, the
same shall be filed and recorded with the copy of the order
laying out, widening, altering or vacating such road in the
office of the district clerk, and shall be a perpetual bar
against such owners, their grantees and assigns for all further
claims for such damages.
    In case the highway commissioner or the county
superintendent, as the case may be, acting for the road
district, is unable to agree with the owner or owners of the
land necessary for the laying out, widening or alteration of
such road on the compensation to be paid, the highway
commissioner, or the county superintendent of highways, as the
case may be, may in the name of the road district, enter

        (a) When a deposit in any bank or trust company

    to them when the account is opened or thereafter, the

    the time the account is opened or thereafter the receipt or
    acquittance of the person so paid shall be valid and
    sufficient discharge from all parties to the bank for any
    payments so made.
        (b) When shares of stock, bonds or other evidences of
    indebtedness or of interest are or have been issued or
    registered by any corporation, association or other entity
    in the names of 2 or more persons as joint tenants with the

    inquiry into the existence, validity or effect of any will
    or other instrument in writing or the right of the survivor
    or survivors to receive the property, and without liability
    to any other person who might claim an interest in or a
    right to receive all or a portion of the property so
    transferred.

    indebtedness or of interest are or have been issued in the
    joint names of 2 or more persons or their survivors by
    corporations, including state chartered savings and loan
    associations, federal savings and loan associations, and
    state and federal credit unions, authorized to do business
    in this State, all payments on account thereof made then or
    thereafter, redemption, repurchase or withdrawal value or
    price, accumulations thereon, credits to, profits,
    dividends, or other rights thereon or accruing thereto may
    be paid or delivered in whole or in part to any of those
    persons whether the other person or persons be living or
    not, and when an agreement permitting such payment or

    the shares of stock, bonds or evidences of indebtedness or
    of interest were issued or thereafter, the payment or
    delivery to any such person, or a receipt or acquittance
    signed by any such person, to whom any such payment or any
    such delivery of rights is made, shall be a valid and
    sufficient release and discharge of any such corporation
    for the payment or delivery so made.

    manner provided for the exercise of the right of eminent
    domain under the Eminent Domain Act Article VII of the Code
    of Civil Procedure, or pursuant to any Act of the General
    Assembly now or hereafter enacted for the exercise of the
    sovereign power of eminent domain, the right of
    survivorship to the title in and to that real property
    shall be transferred to the money so paid to and in the
    hands of the county treasurer. However, upon application to
    the county treasurer holding the money by any joint tenant
    for his proportionate share thereof, or by any tenant by
    the entirety for a one-half share thereof, he shall receive
    the same from the county treasurer without the consent or
    approval of any other joint tenant, and the person making
    the application shall have no survivorship rights in the
    balance remaining in the hands of the county treasurer
    after deducting therefrom his proportionate share.
        (e) When the property owned in joint tenancy is a motor
    vehicle which is the subject of a title issued by the
    Secretary of State, the owners shown on the certificate of
    title shall enjoy the benefits of right of survivorship
    unless they elect otherwise. A certificate of title which
    shows more than one name as owner shall give rise to a
    presumption of ownership in joint tenancy with right of
    survivorship.
    Furthermore, any non-transferable United States Savings
Bond, debenture, note or other obligation of the United States
of America therein named shall, upon the death of the
designated person, if the bond or other obligation is now or
hereafter issued made payable to a designated person and upon
his death to another person then outstanding, become the
property of and be payable to the other person therein named.
If any such non-transferable bond, debenture, note or other
obligation of the United States of America be made payable to 2
persons, in the alternative, the bond or other obligation
shall, upon the death of either person, if the bond or other
obligation is then outstanding, become the property of and be
payable to the survivor of them.
