    (65 ILCS 5/11-110-1)  (from Ch. 24, par. 11-110-1)
    Sec. 11-110-1. The corporate authorities of cities and
villages for drainage purposes may lay out, establish,
construct, and maintain drains, storm sewers, detention
basins, retention basins and other "green infrastructure"
facilities, such as green roofs, rain gardens, bioswales, tree
boxes, porous pavement, porous pipe systems, native plantings,
constructed wetlands, and cisterns, ditches, levees, dykes,
pumping works, and machinery, and may acquire the necessary
land and machinery therefor, and in this manner may provide for
draining or otherwise managing the runoff, such as by
infiltration, evapotranspiration, or collection, on any
portion of the land within their corporate limits, by special
assessment upon the property benefited thereby, or by general
taxation, or a combination both. No lot, block, tract, or
parcel of land, however, shall be assessed more than once in
any one year by a municipality for maintenance.
