Perth adopts ordinance expanding municipal 'vehicle' definition to include trailers
Summary
The Village of Perth voted to amend its municipal code to define 'vehicle' to explicitly include trailers and similar conveyances, renumber code sections and repeal conflicting provisions; the three readings were waived and the ordinance was adopted.
The Village of Perth Board of Trustees adopted an ordinance updating municipal parking regulations to explicitly include trailers in the codedefinition of "vehicle." The trustees waived the three-reading requirement and approved the ordinance on roll call.
Why it matters: The change clarifies what types of conveyances are regulated by the villageparking and trailer restrictions, and resolves duplicated language and section-numbering issues in the municipal code. A trustee said the amendment is largely technical and aligns the code with current practice.
What the board did: The ordinance as read in the meeting amends section 3-201 (definitions), repeals duplicated or conflicting text in the parking chapter, and renumbers subsequent sections. Trustees moved to waive the three readings and then moved to adopt the ordinance; both motions passed on roll call.
Transcript notes and numbering: The ordinance was referenced in the transcript as both "2026-1" and later as "03-206-1." The transcript contains those two references; the board record should be consulted for the final ordinance number and the official published text.
Next steps: The ordinance becomes effective after the required publication and post-adoption procedures. The board did not discuss substantive new parking prohibitions at the meeting; the action focused on clarifying definitions and organizing the chapter.
