An Ordinance Amending Title 9(Traffic) Chapter 7 (Stopping, Standing, and Parking Regulations) Section 9-7-1 through 9-7-12


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.

Title 9, Chapter 7 Stopping, Standing, and Parking Regulations 9-7-1 through 9-7-12
Section 9-7-8 is being changed from Residents Parking Only to Old Orland Parking Only. This clarifies specifically where these restrictions are enforced. Language is being added to clarify that stopping, standing, or parking on any roadway does not apply to motor vehicles experiencing sudden mechanical failures or breakdowns out of control of the driver.

Section 9-7-11-11 Parking Across Parking Stall Markings is being added. This allows a citation to be written when a vehicle is not parked entirely within the designated parking space or stall. Language is also being added to the Violation section to add reference to the Fine Schedule.

This matter was reviewed and recommended at the March 16, 2026 Committee of the Whole meeting and is now is now before the Village Board for consideration.
