Illinois Statutes Chapter 70. Special Districts § 1005/11. Dissolution of district

§ 11. Any mosquito abatement district organized under the provisions of this Act may be dissolved and discontinued upon like petition, hearing and election as is provided in this Act for the organization of such district. If a majority of the votes cast on the question at such election are in favor of such dissolution, the court shall enter an order of record in the court dissolving such district. The trustees of such mosquito abatement district shall immediately proceed to wind up the affairs of such district and shall have the same powers as before dissolution to levy taxes for the purpose of paying the debts, obligations and liabilities of such mosquito abatement district outstanding on the date of such dissolution and the necessary expenses of closing up the affairs of such district. All property of such district shall be sold and in case any excess remains after all liabilities of such district are paid such excess shall be paid to the various common school districts located in such mosquito abatement district ratably in the proportion that the taxable value of all the property in each of the school districts bears to the taxable value of all the property in the mosquito abatement district.
