(65 ILCS 5/11-102-3) (from Ch. 24, par. 11-102-3)
Sec. 11-102-3.
Every specified municipality may use, occupy, and reclaim
submerged land under the public waters of the state within the limits or
jurisdiction of or bordering upon the municipality as may be necessary or
appropriate in the exercise of the powers under Sections 11-102-1 and
11-102-2. The power granted by this section is superior to and takes
precedence over any power to reclaim such land heretofore granted to any
person which has not been exercised at the time when the municipality, by
ordinance as to such land therein particularly described, determines to
exercise the power granted by this section.
