A permit shall be valid, unless suspended or revoked, for a period of one (1) year. The annual cost of the permit shall be twenty dollars ($20.00). If a person has a valid permit for the non-highway vehicle from the Dixon Park District for OHV use on the Stengel Trail, there shall be no cost.

3. The serial number, make, and model and description of the non- highway vehicle;
4. A certification from the applicant that the non-highway vehicle satisfies the requirements of this chapter and the Illinois Vehicle Code; and
