Illinois Statutes Chapter 70. Special Districts § 1005/12a. Dissolution of district upon action of county board

§ 12a. Any mosquito abatement district organized under the provisions of this Act which lies wholly within a county having fewer than 1,000,000 inhabitants which levies a tax for mosquito abatement pursuant to Section 25.05-4 of “An Act in relation to counties”, approved March 31, 1874, as heretofore or hereafter amended,  1 shall be dissolved and discontinued upon the action by such county board which levies such tax.

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.
