Board adopts mobile food vendor rules; staff to update fines appendix
Summary
On third reading the Village adopted a new ordinance regulating mobile food vendors (Ordinance No. 05272025) and instructed staff to update the code appendix to align fines and penalties with new section numbers.
The Village Board approved on third reading Ordinance No. 05272025, which amends sections 22-168 through 22-173 and creates section 174 of the Village Code to regulate mobile food vendors.
Why it matters: The ordinance establishes rules for mobile food vendors operating in village rights-of-way and public parks, and establishes revocation, suspension and penalty provisions tied into the code's fines and forfeitures appendix.
Discussion and follow-up: Trustees asked how enforcement would proceed if someone operated without permission; staff and trustees confirmed that penalties and enforcement language exist but that appendix section numbers must be adjusted to reflect the new code structure. A staff member said the chief recommended updating the fines-and-forfeitures appendix and that the clerk/staff will adjust section numbering in the appendix now that the ordinance is approved.
Outcome: Motion to adopt Ordinance No. 05272025 was moved and seconded, and the board carried the motion. Staff said they will update the appendix to reflect new section numbers and enforcement penalties.
Ending: The ordinance passed and staff will revise the fines appendix to align enforcement references with the new mobile-food vendor sections.
