(65 ILCS 5/11-122-6) (from Ch. 24, par. 11-122-6)
Sec. 11-122-6. This Division 122 shall be in force in every city in which "An Act to authorize cities to acquire, construct, own, operate and lease street railways, to provide the means therefor, and to provide for the discontinuance of such operation and ownership," approved May 18, 1903, as amended, has been heretofore adopted and was in force immediately prior to January 1, 1942. This Division 122 shall not be in force in any other city until the question of its adoption in such other city has been submitted to the electors of the city and approved by a majority of those voting thereon.
If the city council in any city has heretofore incorporated or hereafter incorporates in any grant to a private company of the right to construct or operate street railways a provision reserving to the city the right to take over the street railways at or before the expiration of the grant, in case the city later adopted "An Act to authorize cities to acquire, construct, own, operate and lease street railways, to provide the means therefor, and to provide for the discontinuance of such operation and ownership," approved May 18, 1903, as amended, or adopts this Division 122, as the case may be, that provision shall be as valid and effective for all purposes, in case the city later adopts this Division 122 as provided in this section, as if the provision were made a part of a grant after the adoption of this Division 122 by the city.
