Illinois Code § 4-26

§ 4-26.

Settlement of disputes. In the event of dispute or disagreement between the commissioners and any owner of land in the district with regard to the nature and extent of the drainage system or with regard to the duties and obligations of the commissioners to provide drainage to the lands in the district, to protect the lands from overflow or to keep the drainage system of the district in repair, the commissioners or such owner may petition the court to specify the nature and extent of the drainage system or to specify and define with particularity those duties and obligations with respect to such dispute or disagreement. Upon being filed with the clerk of the court, any such petition shall be presented to the court and by the court set for hearing upon such notice as the court may direct. On such hearing any interested party may offer evidence in support of or in opposition to the petition and the court shall make a binding declaration of the nature and extent of the drainage system or of duties and rights, which declaration shall have the force of a final judgment. The court shall thereafter have the power to enforce any such declaration by appropriate proceedings. (Source: P.A. 86-297.)
