Chapter 9 - Peace and Order
(b) Subsection (a) shall not apply to (1) village-sponsored events or to any
events conducted pursuant to conditions set forth in a village-issued
picnic license, (2) Between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 11:00 p.m.
(c) Certain sounds are generated which due to the nature of generation, such
as random or unpredictable times of occurrence, are impractical for
police officers to assess. Where such sounds occur and cause a serious
disturbance to a neighborhood, an alternative method of processing
complains and relief shall apply. Upon written statement concerning
such sound, signed by two or more affected adult persons from separate
residences or occupancies, the Police Chief or his designee may
commence prosecution on information and belief.
(5) PENALTIES. Any person violating this section shall be subject to a forfeiture
of not less than $40.00 nor more than $80.00 for the first violation and not
less than $100 nor more than $200 for the second or subsequent violation within
a year, in addition to costs of impoundment and prosecution.
9.06 UNLAWFUL ASSEMBLIES AND THEIR SUPPRESSION.
(1) Policemen have a duty to suppress unlawful assemblies within their jurisdiction.
For that reason they may order all persons who are part of an assembly to
disperse. An “unlawful assembly” is an assembly which consists of three or
more persons and which causes such a disturbance of public order that it is
reasonable to believe that the assembly will cause injury to persons or damage to
property unless it is immediately dispersed.
(2) An “unlawful assembly” includes persons who assemble for the purpose of
blocking or obstructing the lawful use of any private or public thoroughfares,
property or of any positions of access or exit to or from any private or public
building, dwelling place or any portion thereof and which assembly does, in
fact, so block or obstruct the lawful use by any other person of any such private
and public thoroughfares, property or any position of access or exit to or from
any private or public building, dwelling place or any portion thereof.
(3) No person shall fail or refuse to withdraw from an unlawful assembly which
the person knows has been ordered to disperse.
