35 electors residing within the area may file with the |

|
The petition shall set forth (1) a definite description of |
the lands
intended to be embraced in the proposed village, (2) |
the number of

If the area contains fewer than 7,500 residents and lies |

miles of the boundary line of any existing |
municipality, the consent of the
existing municipality must be |

No area in a |
county with a population of 150,000 or more that is
|
incorporating under the provisions of this Section shall need |
to obtain the
consent of any existing municipality before the |

|
|
In addition, any contiguous territory in a county of |

300,000 and not more than 190,000
350,000 that

annexed by a municipality, the board of trustees |
may enter such agreements

If all of such |
territory is annexed by a municipality, the district shall
be |
abolished as provided in Section 11-151-4 of that Act and this |
Act then
becomes inapplicable to that territory. This Section |
does not apply to any
district whose territory is situated in 2 |
or more municipalities, except where one of the municipalities |

changes to Section 2-3-5 of the Illinois Municipal Code made by |
this amendatory Act of the 93rd General Assembly.

operates a public water supply and
furnishes water service.
