Illinois Code § 72

§ 72.

Payment in advance for land taken and credit. Whenever any warrant is issued by the clerk of the court in which the judgment of confirmation is rendered, for the collection of any special assessment specified in Section 71, that warrant shall not authorize the collection of any assessment levied against the district for and on account of public benefits, but the clerk shall likewise certify the assessment roll and judgment to the collector of the district upon being requested so to do by that officer. The several and respective installments of the amounts that may be assessed against the district for and on account of public benefits and confirmed by the court, shall be paid out by the district treasurer out of any money in his hands that may be used for that purpose whenever he is authorized and directed so to do by the board. Any such district may pay for any land to be taken or damaged in the making of any local improvement specified in Section 9-2-19 of the Illinois Municipal Code, as now or hereafter amended, before any such assessment or any installment thereof becomes due, and when the same becomes due, the amount so paid shall be credited upon the assessment against the district so paying in advance.
