Title

Adding any negligent, intentional, or malicious acts to the Disruption of Utility Service - Recommended Amended Ordinance

History

The Police Department is seeking to amend Title 6, Chapter 7, Section 6-7-2, of the Orland Park Village Code with regard to amending the disruption of utility service to includeor any other negligent, intentional or malicious acts.” Currently, by ordinance, a violation of the disruption of utility service only occurs when utilities are interrupted during excavation.

The Orland Park Police Department has crucial public safety (i.e. radio communication system) equipment installed on Village of Orland Park Property that is above ground and essential to police operations. Private sector companies often place equipment on the same village owned locations as the Police Department. This enacted ordinance will assist in ensuring that public safety equipment continues to operate without interference or obstruction. 

Recommended Action/Motion

I move to recommend to the Village Board to approve an ordinance entitled: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING TITLE 6, CHAPTER 7 SECTION 6-7-2 OF THE ORLAND PARK VILLAGE CODE IN REGARD TO DISRUPTION OF UTILITY SERVICE
