ERS' OCCUPATION SALES TAX ACT TO REVENUE OF THIS MUNICI-
PALITY DERIVED FROM THE FURNISHING OF WATER AND/OR

Whereas, This municipality has been asked by the State Department of Finance
.to show cause why it should not pay the 2% Retailers' Occupation Sales Tax on
revenue derived from furnishing water and/or electric service to our citizens, and
Whereas, This municipality is advised and believes that this tax does not apply
to the furnishing by a municipality to its citizens of water and/or electric service,
Now, Therefore, Belt Resolved by the Mayor and Council of this municipality
that it join with other municipalities in bringing a legal proceeding in the Circuit
Court of Sangamon County, Illinois, to test, enjoin and restrain the attempted
enforcement of said Retailers' Occupation Sales Tax as to revenue derived from fur-
nishing water and/or electric service by this municipality, and
Be It Further Resolved that the Mayor (or Village President) is hereby author-
ized and directed to do all things proper and necessary to institute and prosecute such
legal proceedings, including any appeal therefrom, and
Be It Further Resolved that the Mayor (Village President) and Clerk of this
municipality is hereby authorized and directed to draw and send a check for $.....................
together with a copy of this resolution to the Illinois Municipal League, 500 East

expenses of such legal proceedings.
