Purpose: To provide for fair and efficient enforcement of village ordinances, as may be allowed by law and directed by ordinance, through an administrative adjudication of violations of village ordinances thereby expediting the prosecution and correction of code violations. To that end, there is hereby adopted division 2.1 of article 1 of the Illinois municipal code 1 .
B. Creation: There is hereby established a department of the municipal government to be known as the village of West Dundee ordinance enforcement department to have the power to enforce compliance with all municipal ordinances as from time to time are authorized by the village board, except for any offense under the Illinois vehicle code (adopted by the village under title 7 of this code) that is a traffic regulation governing the movement of vehicles other than a notice of violation pursuant to an automated traffic law enforcement system which shall be enforced pursuant to this chapter and except for any reportable offense under section 6-204 of the Illinois vehicle code. The establishment of the West Dundee ordinance enforcement department does not preclude the village board from using any legal system or other method to enforce ordinances of the village. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, any references throughout this chapter to "village code", "this code", "code", or "ordinance" shall be a reference to the West Dundee Municipal Code, as amended, or to any municipal ordinance as from time to time authorized by the village board.
