Dissolves the Bensenville Fire Protection District #1 on the effective date of the amendatory Act and transfers all powers, including taxing powers, duties, rights, responsibilities, and territory to the Bensenville Fire Protection District #2. Transfers books, records, papers, documents, property (real and personal), contracts, causes of action, and pending business to Bensenville Fire Protection District #2.
