Illinois Statutes Chapter 55. Counties § 5/5-25022. Form of proposition

§ 5-25022. Form of proposition. The proposition pursuant to Section 5-25021 shall be in substantially the following form:

In case a majority of the votes cast upon the propositions shall be in favor of the issuance of such bonds, the county board shall issue the bonds not exceeding the amount authorized at the referendum. Such bonds shall become due not more than 20 years after their date, shall be in denominations of $100 or any multiple thereof, and shall bear interest, evidenced by coupons, at a rate not exceeding the maximum rate authorized by the Bond Authorization Act, as amended  1 at the time of the making of the contract, payable semi-annually, as shall be determined by the county board.

With respect to instruments for the payment of money issued under this Section or its predecessor either before, on, or after the effective date of Public Act 86-4, it is and always has been the intention of the General Assembly (i) that the Omnibus Bond Acts  2 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 Division or “An Act in relation to the establishment and maintenance of county and multiple-county public health departments”, approved July 9, 1943,  3 that may appear to be or to have been more restrictive than those Acts, (ii) that the provisions of this Section or its predecessor are not a limitation on the supplementary authority granted by the Omnibus Bond Acts, and (iii) that instruments issued under this Section or its predecessor within the supplementary authority granted by the Omnibus Bond Acts are not invalid because of any provision of this Division or “An Act in relation to the establishment and maintenance of county and multiple-county public health departments”, approved July 9, 1943, that may appear to be or to have been more restrictive than those Acts.
