Title/Name/Summary

 

An Ordinance Amending Title 5 (Building) Chapter 1 (Building Code) Section 5-1-4

 

History

 

As the governing document for the community, the Village Code is vital to a successfully managed municipality. Included in the Village Code are local laws that describe how the municipal government is structured, the duties and services the Village is responsible for, how public safety is provided in the community, the regulations that help ensure properties are used and maintained properly, and much more. As part of its continuing improvement efforts, the Village is undergoing a thorough review of the Village Code to update the existing code and ensure compliance with general law, remove obsolete and/or redundant provisions and supplement with best practices and necessary additions. While updates to various individual portions of the code are routine, this is the first time that the entire code will be subjected to a full review.
