Title

An Ordinance Amending Title 8, Chapter 6, Section 8-6-8-2 of the Orland Park Village Code in Regard to Public Camping

 

History

 

The United States Supreme Court recently affirmed that local municipalities can regulate camping and encampments within their borders on any public property. In furtherance of this, the attached ordinance extends the Village’s existing prohibition on campgrounds to affirm that camping is prohibited on any public property within the Village, including on any Village property. This will promote community safety and the health and welfare of residents of, and visitors to, the Village.

 

Recommended Action/Motion

 

I move to adopt an Ordinance entitled: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING TITLE 8, CHAPTER 6, SECTION 8-6-8-2 OF THE ORLAND PARK VILLAGE CODE IN REGARD TO PUBLIC CAMPING.
