                            STATE OF ILLINOIS
                         OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR
                           SPRINGFIELD, 62706
      GEORGE H. RYAN
      GOVERNOR
                              July 25, 2002
      To The Honorable Members of the
          Illinois House of Representatives
          92nd General Assembly
          Pursuant to Article IV,  Section  9(b)  of  the  Illinois
      Constitution  of  1970,  I  hereby veto and return House Bill
      4397 entitled "AN ACT concerning municipalities."
          House Bill 4397 amends the  Illinois  Municipal  Code  to
      provide  that  certain municipalities may adopt, by ordinance
      or resolution, at least 180 days prior to the first municipal
      election following the  municipality's  receipt  of  the  new
      federal decennial census results, certain numbers of aldermen
      depending on population.
          I  fully  support  the  provisions  in  House  Bill 4397;
      however, I have already signed into law Senate Bill 1635 that
      contains identical provisions.
          For this reason, I hereby  veto  and  return  House  Bill
      4397.
                                             Sincerely,
                                             s/GEORGE H. RYAN
                                             Governor
