SB 956 -- PUBLIC WATER SUPPLY DISTRICTS

Currently, a circuit court must follow certain public notice
requirements when holding a hearing regarding the detachment of
property that is part of a public water supply district.  This
bill increases the maximum number of days from five to seven
before the hearing date in which the last public hearing notice
must be published in the county newspaper.  If that territory is
detached and excluded from the district, the court must include
in its decree a description of the district after the detachment
and a certified copy of the court's order must be filed by the
circuit clerk in the office of the recorder of deeds, the county
clerk in each county in which the district is located, and the
Office of the Secretary of State.

The term of office for the initially appointed board members of
public water supply districts is changed to end in April instead
of June because of a change in the date of their subsequent
election.
