RESOLUTION
AUTHORIZING AND DIRECTING THAT PROPER STEPS BE TAKEN TO
ENJOIN THE APPLICATION OF THE 1935 PUBLIC UTILITY TAX ACT
TO REVENUE OF THIS MUNICIPALITY DERIVED FROM THE FURNISH-
ING OF WATER AND/OR ELECTRIC SERVICE.
Whereas, This municipality has been asked by the Illinois State Department of
Finance to pay the 37o Public Utility Tax on revenue derived from furnishing water and/
or electric service to our citizens, and
Whereas, This municipality is advised that many Illinois municipalities wish to test
out the validity of the provisions of this Act as they apply to municipalities, and
Whereas, This municipality has reason to believe that the 1935 Public Utility Tax Act
is invalid as applied to municipalities,
Now, Therefore, Be. It Resolved by the Mayor and Council of this municipality that
it join with other municipalities in taking the necessary legal action to enjoin and restrain
the attempted enforcement of said Public Utility Tax Act as to revenue derived from
furnishing water and/or electric service by this municipality, and
Be It Further Resolved that the Mayor (or Village President) is hereby authorized
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 munici-
pality 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 Capitol Avenue,
Springfield, Illinois, to cover our proportionate share of the expenses of such legal pro-
ceedings.
