LANARK CHAMBER OF COMMERCE: The Lanark City Council voted August 7th to pass an ordinance permitting the operation of certain “UTV’s” (Utility Task Vehicle, also known as a “side by side”) and Golf Carts on City streets, with some exceptions.

Lanark Chamber of Commerce issued the following announcement on Aug. 15.

The full text of the new ordinance is available HERE. Registration stickers have been ordered, and once all the required documentation has been created, non-highway vehicles will be ready to register. The process includes a brief inspection at the Police Department, and owners should ensure they have obtained insurance for the vehicle and possess an Illinois Insurance Identification Card that specifically states it is for the non-highway vehicle. Cards that only list automobiles will NOT be accepted.

Once the inspection is complete and all requirements are satisfied per the Code, a numbered registration sticker will be placed on the non-highway vehicle plus a sticker indicating the year it is valid for. With the end of 2018 approaching, the newly issued registrations will be good through 2019, with renewals due in 2020 before the vehicle is used in that year.

Please read and familiarize yourself with all of the requirements of the Code, paying close attention to where operation of the non-highway vehicles are and are not allowed. Violators of any portion of the Code are subject to be issued a citation, plus a fine, and in more serious cases, the non-highway vehicle will be impounded. Read the rules! If you have any questions, please contact Matt Magill at the Police Department; 815-493-6931.
