A. Legislative findings and purpose.

(1) The Village Board finds that significant numbers of vehicle owners fail to respond to parking summonses issued for violations of parking orders, rules, regulations, and local laws; that a significant number of such owners are persistent violators; and that, by reason of out-of-state registration of vehicles, transfer of ownership, reregistration of vehicles, and other circumstances, violators frequently are able to evade existing enforcement measures.

(2) By reason of the foregoing, the Village Board finds that the health, welfare, and safety of the Village will be served by adoption of a Village local law providing additional means of enforcing parking orders, rules, regulations, and local laws in the case of vehicle owners who fail to timely respond to summonses issued for Village parking violations.
