(A) Except as may be provided otherwise by statute or ordinance, no person elected, appointed or employed by the village shall render himself or herself personally liable for any damage that may accrue to persons or property as a result of any act required or permitted in the discharge of his or her duties under the Development Code. Any suit brought against the persons as a result of the actions shall be defended by village staff until the final determination of the legal proceedings.
(B) (1) The village does not accept responsibility for the project design and/or construction of a development nor any other design consideration or standard utilized in the project. The developer and any design professionals are reminded that they are responsible for meeting or exceeding all pertinent federal, state or local codes or standards both on and off the site. The village's codes and regulations establish only a minimum. The developer should therefore rely upon the advice of a design professional as to whether a more stringent standard should be used for this project.
(2) Review of plans by the village does not constitute approval of method, approach or sufficiency of the design.
