    Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
represented in the General Assembly:
 
    Section 5. The Mosquito Abatement District Act is amended
by adding Section 11.5 as follows:
 
    (70 ILCS 1005/11.5 new)
    Sec. 11.5. Cessation of district organization.
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, if a majority vote
of the board of trustees of a mosquito abatement district is in
favor of a proposition to annex the district to another
mosquito abatement district whose boundaries are contiguous,
consolidate the district into a municipality whose boundaries
are coterminous or substantially coterminous with the
district, consolidate the district into the township in which
the district sits, or consolidate the district into the county
in which the district sits, and if the governing authorities of
the governmental unit assuming the functions of the former
district agree by resolution to accept the functions (and
jurisdiction over the territory, if applicable) of the
consolidated or annexed district, then the district shall
cease. On the effective date of the annexation or
consolidation, all the rights, powers, duties, assets,
property, liabilities, indebtedness, obligations, bonding
authority, taxing authority, and responsibilities of the
district shall vest in and be assumed by the governmental unit
assuming the functions of the former district.
    The employees of the former district shall be transferred
to the governmental unit assuming the functions of the former
district. The governmental unit assuming the functions of the
former district shall exercise the rights and responsibilities
of the former district with respect to those employees. The
status and rights of the employees of the former district under
any applicable contracts or collective bargaining agreements,
historical representation rights under the Illinois Public
Labor Relations Act, or under any pension, retirement, or
annuity plan shall not be affected by this amendatory Act of
the 100th General Assembly.
