(B) (1) When a handicapped parking citation is issued for a handicapped parking infraction, the person issuing the handicapped parking citation shall enter thereon all required information, including the name and address of the cited person or, if not known, the license number and description of the offending motor vehicle, the offense charged and the time and place the person cited is to appear in court.
(2) Unless the person cited requests an earlier date, the time of appearance shall be at least three days after the issuance of the handicapped parking citation.
(3) One copy of the handicapped parking citation shall be delivered to the person cited or attached to the offending motor vehicle.
(C) At least 24 hours before the time set for the appearance of the cited person, either the Village Attorney, or other person authorized by law to issue a complaint for the particular offense, shall issue and file a complaint charging such person with a handicapped parking infraction, or such person shall be released from the obligation to appear as specified.
