by the Village, and the Department of Public Works' yard and buildings
shall be opened from 7:00 a.m. local time to 10:00 p.m. local time
and shall be closed between the hours of 10:00 p.m. local time and
7:00 a.m. local time. Any particular property or a part thereof may
be declared closed to the public by a police officer of the Village
or the Village Manager at any time and for any interval of time either
temporarily or on regular or stated intervals. Only those persons
authorized by the Village shall occupy such places during hours when
