 (from Ch. 24, par. 9-2-72)Sec. 9-2-72.         If any special assessment or special tax before January 1,  1942 has been, or on or after January 1, 1942, is annulled by the corporate  authorities, or set aside by any court or declared invalid or void for any  reason whatsoever, a new assessment or tax may be made and returned and  like notice shall be given and proceedings had as required in this Division  2 in relation to the first.

2021 Illinois Compiled Statutes|Chapter 65 - MUNICIPALITIES|65 ILCS 5/ - Illinois Municipal Code.|Article 9 - Local Improvements

 (from Ch. 24, par. 9-2-73)Sec. 9-2-73.         No special assessment or special tax shall be held invalid  because levied for work already done, if it appears that the work was done  under a contract which has been duly let and entered into pursuant to an  ordinance providing that such an improvement should be constructed and paid  for by special assessment or special tax, and that the work was done under  the direction of the board of local improvements and has been accepted by  that board. It shall not be a valid objection to the confirmation of this  new assessment that the original ordinance has been declared invalid or  that the improvement as actually constructed does not conform to the  description thereof as set forth in the original special assessment  ordinance, if the improvement so constructed is accepted by the board of  local improvements. The provisions of this section shall apply whenever the  prior ordinance is held insufficient or otherwise defective, invalid, or  void, so that the collection of the special assessment or special tax  therein provided for becomes impossible. In every such case, when such an  improvement has been so constructed and accepted, and the proceedings for  the confirmation and collection of the special assessment or special tax  are thus rendered unavailing, the corporate authorities shall pass a new  ordinance for the making and collection of a new special assessment or  special tax, and this new ordinance need not be presented by the board of  local improvements.

2021 Illinois Compiled Statutes|Chapter 65 - MUNICIPALITIES|65 ILCS 5/ - Illinois Municipal Code.|Article 9 - Local Improvements

 (from Ch. 24, par. 9-2-74)Sec. 9-2-74.         At any time after the bids have been received pursuant to the  provisions of this Division 2, if it appears to the satisfaction of the  board of local improvements that the first assessment is insufficient to  pay the contract price or the bonds or vouchers issued or to be issued in  payment of the contract price, together with the amount required to pay the  accruing interest thereon, the board shall make and file an estimate of the  amount of the deficiency. Thereupon a second or supplemental assessment for  the estimated deficiency of the cost of the work and interest may be made  in the same manner as nearly as may be as in the first assessment, and so  on until sufficient money has been realized to pay for the improvement and  the interest. It shall be on objection to the supplemental assessment that  the prior assessment has been levied, adjudicated, and collected unless it  appears that in that prior cause upon proper issue made, it was specially  found in terms, that the property objected for would be benefited by the  improvement no more than the amount assessed against it in that prior  proceedings.If too large a sum is raised at any time, the excess shall be refunded  ratably to those against whom the assessment was made.But if the estimated deficiency exceeds 10% of the original estimate, no  contract shall be awarded until a public hearing has been held on the  supplemental proceeding in like manner as in the original proceedings. No  more than one supplemental assessment shall be levied to meet any  deficiency where the deficiency is caused by the original estimate made by  the engineer being insufficient.Where the improvement is to be constructed with the aid and assistance  of any federal agency or other governmental agency after judgment of  confirmation if there appears a deficiency in assessments levied in excess  of 10% of the original estimate the municipality shall not proceed with the  construction of the work until a new hearing has been held upon the levy of  a special assessment to make up that deficiency.However, the petitioner, in case it so elects, may dismiss the petition  and vacate the judgment of confirmation at any time after the judgment of  confirmation is rendered, and begin new proceedings for the same or a  different improvement as provided in Section 9-2-65.

 (from Ch. 24, par. 9-2-75)Sec. 9-2-75.         If from any cause any municipality fails to collect the whole  or any portion of any special assessment or special tax which may be  levied, which is not canceled or set aside by the order of any court, for  any public improvement authorized to be made and paid for by a special  assessment or a special tax, the corporate authorities, at any time within  5 years after the confirmation of the original assessment, may direct a new  assessment to be made upon the delinquent property for the amount of the  deficiency and interest thereon from the date of the original assessment,  which assessment shall be made, as nearly as may be, in the same manner as  is prescribed in this Division 2 for the first assessment. In all cases  where partial payments have been made on such former assessments, they  shall be credited or allowed on the new assessment to the property for  which they were made, so that the assessment shall be equal and impartial  in its results. If this new assessment proves insufficient, either in whole  or in part, the corporate authorities, at any time within the specified  period of 5 years, may order a third to be levied, and so on in the same  manner and for the same purpose. It shall constitute no legal objection to  any new assessment that the property may have changed hands, or been  encumbered subsequent to the date of the original assessment.

This certification  shall be filed by the officer receiving it in his office. With the  assessment roll and judgment the clerk of the designated court shall also  issue a warrant for the collection of the assessment. The court has the  power to recall such warrants as to all or any of the property affected at  any time before payment or sale, in case the proceedings are abandoned by  the petitioner or the judgment is vacated or modified in a material respect  as hereinbefore provided, but not otherwise. In case the assessment roll  has been abated and the judgment reduced in accordance with the provisions  of Section 9-2-114, the clerk of the designated court, within 30 days  thereafter, shall certify the order of reduction or the roll as so reduced  or re-cast, under the directions of the court, to the officer so authorized  to collect the special assessment, and shall issue a warrant for the  collection of the assessment as so reduced or re-cast.

Whenever any warrant is issued by the clerk of the court in  which the judgment of confirmation is rendered, for the collection of any  special assessment specified in Section 9-2-19, that warrant shall not  authorize the collection of any assessment levied against the municipality  for and on account of public benefits, but the clerk shall likewise certify  the assessment roll and judgment to the clerk or comptroller, if any, of  that municipality upon being requested so to do by that officer. The  several and respective installments of the amounts that may be assessed  against the municipality for and on account of public benefits and  confirmed by the court, shall be paid out by the municipal treasurer out of  any money arising from the collection of the direct annual tax provided for  in Section 9-2-38 and out of any other money in his hands that may be used  for that purpose whenever he is legally authorized so to do, by an  ordinance of that municipality. Any such municipality may pay for any land  to be taken or damaged in the making of any local improvement specified in  Section 9-2-19, before any such assessment or any installment thereof  becomes due, and when the same becomes due, the amount so paid shall be  credited upon the assessment against the municipality so paying in advance.
