§ 255-5 — Transfer from road and bridge fund

Whenever the road and bridge fund of any township in a county with a population of 50,000 or more contains a balance no longer needed for road and bridge purposes, occasioned by the fact that the township no longer has any roads or bridges under its jurisdiction, the voters of the township at an annual township meeting or at a special township meeting called for the purpose may, by resolution by a majority vote of the voters present and voting on the resolution, transfer the balance to the general township fund or to any other township fund or funds. For a period of one year after the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 92nd General Assembly, the voters of a township at an annual township meeting or at a special township meeting called for the purpose may, by resolution by a majority vote of the voters present and voting on the resolution, distribute funds from the road and bridge fund to any township fund used for construction or maintenance of sewage or water treatment facilities.
