[HISTORY: Adopted by the City Council of
the City of Geneva 8-1-1979 by L.L. No. 1-1979. Amendments noted where
applicable.]
An appearance ticket is a written notice issued
and subscribed by a police officer or other public servant authorized
by state law or local law enacted pursuant to the provisions of the
Municipal Home Rule Law to issue the same, directing a designated
person to appear in a designated local criminal court at a designated
future time in connection with his alleged commission of a designated
offense. A notice conforming to such definition constitutes an appearance
ticket regardless of whether it is referred to in some other provision
of law as a summons or by any other name or title.
A public servant other than a police officer
may in such cases issue and serve upon a person an appearance ticket
when he has reasonable cause to believe that such person has committed
a misdemeanor, or has committed a petty offense in his presence.
[Amended 7-1-2015 by L.L.
No. 2-2015]
A police officer, peace officer, Zoning Coordinator,
and Code Enforcement Officer of the city are hereby authorized and
empowered to enforce the laws and ordinances of the City of Geneva
and are further authorized to issue an appearance ticket relating
to parking, licensing of occupations or businesses, fire prevention,
safety, health and sanitation, building, zoning, planning or any other
ordinance, rule, or regulation affecting the public health, safety,
and welfare.
