Pursuant to § 66.0113 of Wisconsin Statutes, the Village
Board hereby elects to use the citation method of enforcement of Village
ordinances described herein or in a separate ordinance, including
those for which a statutory counterpart exists.
The citation shall contain the following:
A. The name and address of the alleged violator;
B. The factual allegations describing the alleged violation;
C. The time and place of the offense;
D. The section of the ordinance violated;
E. A designation of the offense in such manner as can readily be understood
by a person making a reasonable effort to do so;
F. The time at which the alleged violator may appear in court;
G. A statement which in essence informs the alleged violator:
(1) That a cash deposit based on the schedule established by this or
other Village ordinance may be made which shall be delivered or mailed
to the Clerk of the Municipal Court prior to the time of the scheduled
court appearance.
(2) That if a deposit is made, no appearance in court is necessary unless
the defendant is subsequently summoned.
(3) If the alleged violator makes a cash deposit and does not appear
in court, he or she either will be deemed to have tendered a plea
of no contest and submitted to a forfeiture, plus costs, fees, and
surcharges imposed under Ch. 814, Wis. Stats., not to exceed the amount
of the deposit or will be summoned into court to answer the complaint
if the court does not accept the plea of no contest.
(4) If the alleged violator does not make a cash deposit and does not
appear in court at the time specified, the court may issue a summons
or a warrant for the defendant's arrest or consider the nonappearance
to be a plea of no contest and enter judgment under § 66.0113(3)(d),
Wis. Stats., or the municipality may commence an action against the
alleged violator to collect the forfeiture, plus costs, fees, and
surcharges imposed under Ch. 814, Wis. Stats.
H. A direction that if the alleged violator elects to make a cash deposit, the statement which accompanies the citation shall be signed to indicate that the statement required under Subsection
G above has been read. Such statement shall be sent or brought with the cash deposit;
I. A statement that if the court finds that the violation involves an
offense that prohibits conduct prohibited by state statute punishable
by fine or imprisonment, or both, and that the violation resulted
in property damage or physical injury to a person other than the alleged
violator, the court may summon the defendant into court to determine
if restitution shall be ordered under § 800.093, Wis. Stats.
(municipal court);
J. Such other information as the Village deems necessary.
The cash deposits for the various ordinances for which a citation
may be issued are as established on the deposit schedule adopted by
the Village Board, a copy of which is on file with the Village Clerk-Treasurer.
