 (from Ch. 34, par. 6-18001)Sec. 6-18001.     Bonds for medical services and law enforcement.     For the purpose of improving hospital, medical, and health services and  for improving law enforcement, any county with a population of 1,000,000 or  more inhabitants may, prior to December 1, 1970, by resolution of its  County Board, incur an indebtedness and issue bonds therefor in amounts not  exceeding in the aggregate of $12,000,000. Such bonds shall bear interest  at a rate of not more than the maximum rate authorized by the Bond  Authorization Act, as amended at the time of the making of the contract,  and shall mature within 20 years from the date thereof. The resolution  authorizing this issuance of bonds may be made effective without the  submission thereof to the voters of the county for approval.The resolution authorizing such bonds shall provide for the levy of a  direct annual tax upon all the taxable property in the county sufficient to  pay and discharge the principal of such bonds at maturity and to pay the  interest thereon as it falls due. This tax shall be levied with the general  taxes of the county and shall be in addition to the maximum of all other  taxes and tax rates which the county is or may be authorized to levy.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 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 Act or "An Act to  revise the law in relation to counties", approved March 31, 1874, 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 Act or "An Act to revise the law in  relation to counties", approved March 31, 1874, that may appear to be or to  have been more restrictive than those Acts.
