Sec. 16-53. Removal prohibited; exception.
   It shall be unlawful for any individual to destroy, damage, deface or remove from its designated location any item of personal property belonging to the village, the item having been located at its designated site for purposes of convenience and safety of the residents and guests of the village. It shall not be unlawful to remove such item so long as the removal thereof is in accord with the usage of the item for emergency purposes if the item of personal property is an emergency flotation device and if the item shall in fact be used and returned immediately upon completion thereof to its designated location. Except as specified in this division, removal of such personal property shall constitute a violation of this division, regardless of the intent to permanently deprive the village of the possession thereof by the violator.
