Board approves ordinance to prohibit interference with first responders, sets 25-foot buffer
Summary
The board approved Bill No. 3081 to prohibit interference with first responders and city officials, including a 25-foot distance requirement for bystanders near responders during duties.
Police Chief Matt Coonce presented the first reading of Bill No. 3081, described as an ordinance addressing interference against first responders and city officials and specifying that individuals must remain within (or rather outside of) a 25-foot zone while responders perform duties. Village Clerk Melody Wymore performed the second reading.
Trustee David Jett moved to adopt the bill (entered as Ordinance No. 3080); Trustee Renee Hoppe Keelin seconded. The roll call as recorded showed Trustees Barrera, Jett, Benton and Keelin voting "Yea." The motion carried. The minutes record the ordinance as adopted; the record does not list a recorded vote for Chairman Bradich for this item.
