Folkers v. Butzer

This was a suit by appellees, as taxpayers, to enjoin the payment of certain anticipation tax warrants.

Pursuant to U 117, ch. 121, Cahill’s Ill. St. 1933, a special tax was voted by Waldo township for a period of five years from 1930 to 1934, both inclusive, for the purpose of constructing and maintaining gravel roads in said township. It appears that following the election the highway commissioner filed with the town clerk and the county clerk a certificate of levy in the sum of 30 cents on each $100 assessed valuation of the taxable property in said town for the above years.

Nothing was done…
