Specialville sewer district ordinance and bonding plan
A 1926 Village of Specialville ordinance outlines drainage district boundaries in Cook County Lilinoia and authorizes sewers, ditches, and connection rights. It approves improvements by the Board of Local Improvements, sets total cost at $25,504.80 with 6 percent interest, and schedules ten installments funded by special assessments and bonds issued by the Village of Tessville. The filing petition seeks just compensation for property taken and to determine benefited properties, with ordinances repealed only if conflicting. The document is certified by Village Clerk Charles J. Thompson.
