It shall be unlawful for any person to discharge or throw by
any means any dangerous missile, object, arrow, stone or other missile
within the Village of Tigerton; provided, however, upon written application
to the Chief of Police, a person may be granted permission by the
Chief of Police to construct and maintain supervised archery ranges
if in the opinion of the Chief of Police the construction or maintenance
of such ranges will not endanger the public health and safety.
No person shall sell, expose or offer for sale, use, keep, discharge or explode any fireworks except toy pistol paper caps, sparklers and toy snakes within the limits of the Village unless he shall be authorized by a fireworks permit as provided in Chapter
292, Fireworks, of the Code of the Village of Tigerton. The term "fireworks" as used in this section shall be defined as provided in § 167.10(1), Wis. Stats., and shall be deemed to include all rockets or similar missiles containing explosive fuel.
No person shall loiter or prowl in a place, at a time or in
a manner not usual for law-abiding individuals under circumstances
that warrant alarm for the safety of persons or property in the vicinity.
Among the circumstances which may be considered in determining whether
such alarm is warranted is the fact that the person takes flight upon
appearance of a police or peace officer, refuses to identify himself
or manifestly endeavors to conceal himself or any object. Unless flight
by the person or other circumstances makes it impracticable, a police
or peace officer shall, prior to any arrest for an offense under this
section, afford the person an opportunity to dispel any alarm which
would otherwise be warranted by requesting him to identify himself
and explain his presence and conduct. No person shall be convicted
of an offense under this section if the police or peace officer did
not comply with the preceding sentence, or if it appears at trial
that the explanation given by the person was true and, if believed
by the police or peace officer at the time, would have dispelled the
alarm.
It shall be unlawful for any person to possess a controlled
substance contrary to the Uniformed Controlled Substances Act, Chapter
961 of the Wisconsin Statutes.
It shall be unlawful for any person to fail to obey the direction
or order of a police officer while such police officer is acting in
an official capacity in carrying out his or her duties.

A. Purpose. The Village Board has determined that bullying and harassment
are disruptive to fostering a safe environment in the Village; interfere
with the ability to succeed or excel in a safe environment; and interfere
with the ability to participate or benefit from programs, activities,
work sites and opportunities offered. Accordingly, the Village Board
finds that it is in the public interest to assure that every person
is valued and respected regardless of perceived differences and is
free from bullying, harassment and intimidation.
B. Definitions. As used in this section, the terms herein shall have
the following meanings unless the context clearly indicates a different
meaning:
BULLYING
A form of harassment defined as an intentional course of
conduct which is reasonably likely to intimidate, emotionally abuse,
slander, threaten or intimidate another person and which serves no
legitimate purpose.
COURSE OF CONDUCT
A pattern of conduct composed of a series of acts over a
period of time, however short, evidencing a continuity of purpose.
HARASSMENT
Any conduct, whether verbal, physical, written, or by means
of any mode of communication, which:
(1)
Is prohibited by §§ 947.01, 947.012, 947.0125
or 947.013, Wis. Stats.; or
(2)
Is any intentional course of conduct which is likely to create
an intimidating, hostile or offensive environment, and which serves
no legitimate purpose.
C. Bullying and harassment prohibited. It shall be unlawful for any
person to engage in any bullying or harassment of a person or induce
another person to engage in such bullying or harassment.
D. Retaliation prohibited. No person shall retaliate against any person
who reports any conduct which is prohibited by this section.

to apply to any constitutionally protected activity or speech.
F. Parental responsibility. It shall be unlawful for any custodial parent or guardian of any unemancipated person under 18 years of age to allow or permit such person to violate the provisions of Subsection
C or
D above. The fact that prior to the present offense a parent, guardian or custodian was informed in writing by a law enforcement officer of a separate violation of Subsection
C or
D above by the same minor occurring within 90 days prior to the present offense shall constitute a rebuttable presumption that such parent, guardian or custodian allowed or permitted the present violation.
G. Penalties.
(1) Any person who shall violate any provision of this section shall be subject to a penalty as provided in §§
410-25 and
1-4 of this Code.
(2) In addition, any person who shall cause physical damage or destroy
any public property shall be liable for the costs of replacing or
repairing such damaged or destroyed property pursuant to § 943.01,
Wis. Stats. The parent of an unemancipated minor who violates § 943.01(1),
Wis. Stats., also may be liable for the costs of repairing such damaged
or destroyed property in accordance with § 895.035, Wis.
