It shall be unlawful for any person to provide carts for patrons'
use on store or business premises unless the cart has permanently
affixed to it a sign, metallic tag or other means for clearly identifying
the owner of the cart and the specific store location at which said
cart is used and the owner notifies the public of the procedure to
be utilized for authorized removal of the cart from the premises;
notifies the public that the unauthorized removal of the cart from
the premises or parking area of the retail establishment, or the unauthorized
possession of the cart, is a violation of law; and lists a valid telephone
number or address for returning the cart removed from the premises
or parking area to the owner or retailer.
At its discretion and in addition to any other penalty authorized
pursuant to this Code, the Village is hereby authorized to seize and
remove or cause to be removed any abandoned shopping cart from any
public place, without notice, and shall take or cause the same to
be taken to a facility for redemption or disposition as hereinafter
provided.
