Laws Drinking The legal drinking age in Illinois is 21. Drinking and Driving If your blood-alcohol level is greater than .08%, you are considered driving under the influence in Illinois. Illinois is an implied consent state, which means that when you drive on Illinois roads, you consent to a blood test or risk having your license suspended. First-time DUI offenders have their licenses suspended for a minimum of one year and can face fines up to $2,500 and a year in jail. Anyone under 21 who tests positive for alcohol will automatically have their driver’s license revoked for two years. Helmets Illinois has no statute requiring motorcycle or bicycle riders to wear helmets. Recreational vehicles Most communities do not allow recreational vehicles and boats to be parked on the street for lengthy periods of time. Some neighborhoods may have rules against parking RVs and boats in front of the home. It’s best to check your local community about the laws. Seat belts All occupants are required to be protected by a safety belt or safety restraint system regardless of age. Children under the age of 8 must be secured in an appropriate safety seat. Children weighing more than 40 pounds may ride in the back seat wearing only a lap belt, if the back seat is not equipped with a lap and shoulder belt. Passengers under age 16 must be protected by a safety belt or restraint system. Children with physical disabilities that prevent the use of standard safety seats are exempt. See Child Passenger Protection Act. If the driver is under the age of 18, the seat bet requirements extend to all passengers under the age of 19. For the first year of licensing, or until the driver is age 18, whichever occurs first, the number of passengers is limited to one person under age 20 (except immediate family which includes siblings or children of the driver). After this period the number of passengers is limited to one in the front seat and the number of safety belts in the back seat. Refer to the Graduated Driver Licensing System. Speed Limits Each community can set the speed limits within their boundaries. On state roads, the speed limit is 65 mph for divided highways, 55 mph for other roads outside of urban areas and 30 mph within urban areas. Watch for speed limit signs and make sure you know the speed limit in a particular area.

Pets / Pet Adoption Dogs and cats in the Decatur, Forsyth and Mount Zion area need to have a rabies vaccine yearly once they reach 4 months of age. These shots must be renewed yearly. Once the animal is vaccinated, the city will issue tags for a fee of $15 for a spayed or neutered animal younger than 1 year old and $50 for an unaltered animals older than 1 year old. This registration is valid
for one year. Tags can be obtained at the Civic Center for Decatur residents or local veterinarians and at the Mount Zion Police Department for Mount Zion residents. The animal must be registered within 30 days of the vaccination. A late fee of $150 will be applied to late vaccinations. Owners of animals picked up by Macon County Animal Control will be charged a $15 impoundment fee with an additional $7 boarding fee per day. A $20 fee will be
charged if a warden picks up the animal. The second offense is $35, the third is $50 and the fourth is $75. If the animal has not been vaccinated, a $35 charge will be charged and the owner must also prepay for the shot. Stray animals are kept for seven days before being offered for adoption. The animal will remain up for adoption as long as it remains healthy. Sick, injured or aggressive animals are euthanized. The Macon County
Animal Shelter accepts cash, checks and money orders. Any animal picked up in Mount Zion will be delivered to Macon County Animal Control. A $25 fee for this transportation will be charged in addition to all other applicable fees. Farm animals such as sheep, swine, goats and cattle are not allowed within the city limits of Decatur, Forsyth or Mount Zion. Some fowl are allowed, but check with

Snow Removal (city of Decatur procedures)
The Plan The city of Decatur is divided into 12 areas or routes to which a snowplow is assigned. Priority streets are determined in each area. Usually, these are the main arterial streets that carry the bulk of traffic. As long as the snow continues to fall, city trucks will work to keep these streets open. When the snow has diminished or quit, these streets are salted in their entirety, if needed. As soon as practical, trucks are then sent to plow secondary streets. These streets are streets with low volume traffic. It is the city’s intent to plow these streets curb-to-curb. Secondary streets are salted only when there are particular hazards, such as stop signs, hills and bridges. Because of the expense and the concern for the environment, salting is limited to areas with high traffic volume and dangerous areas.

The Codes The city’s established snow codes administer and control the emergency snow routes: Code 1: Snow Alert Code 2: Declaration of snow emergency Code 3: End of snow emergency When more than 2 inches of snow has fallen, a snow emergency is declared. That means no parking is allowed on the streets designated as snow routes. Vehicles parked on snow routes during a snow emergency will be ticketed and may be towed at the owner’s expense. Those streets are: — North and South Main streets from Washington to Johnson — North Water from Marietta to Garfield — East Wood from South Main to U.S. 36 — West Main from Oakland to North/South Main Local news media will announce snow alerts and/or emergencies. Be prepared to move your vehicle from the street once a snow alert/emergency has been declared.

Winter Parking Restrictions Winter no parking signs have been erected on certain narrow streets where it is very difficult to safely get the city’s large dump trucks with conventional snow plows and salt spreaders on these streets when vehicles are parked on them. Winter no-parking exists on the following streets: — Burtschi Court — Cantrell Court — East Court Manor — East Main Street (East to Illinois 36) — East Prairie Avenue (East to Illinois 36) — Home Avenue (North of Main Street) — Shady Crest — Webster Court — West Court Manor — West Prairie Avenue (Hayworth to west dead end) For the additional information please see Winter Parking Restrictions (Chapter 34, Section 11) of the municipal code.
The Rules City ordinance prohibits the placing of any snow on a public street from any private drive or parking lot. The best place to pile snow is “downstream” from your drive. That is, pile the snow on the opposite side of the drive from the direction traffic approaches it. Sometimes the snowplow has no recourse but to plow snow to the side of the road. This can result in snow being deposited in your drive. Please understand that we are trying to clear as much as possible as quickly as possible, and cannot pay special attention to each drive, although we would like to. Alleys are not plowed by city snowplows because they are generally too dangerous due to the fact that they are too narrow and have too many hidden items under the snow. Trailer parks are privately owned and are maintained by the owners, not the city. Often cul-de-sacs and dead end streets are the last ones to get attention. This is due in part that specialized equipment must be used, and these streets have very low traffic volume. Some streets, although they are within city limits, are not maintained by the city. The Illinois Department of Transportation and Macon County Highway Department are responsible for state and county highways respectively. Problems on these streets should be directed to them. Persons with a medical emergency, such as someone needing regular treatments on a dialysis machine, can be given priority. Simply obtain a letter from your doctor stating the nature of the medical emergency. Take the letter to the Municipal Services Center, 2600 N. Jasper St., and your name will be added to the list of medical emergencies. During snow alerts/emergencies, priority is given to medical emergencies, once the main arteries of the city have been cleared. Pregnancy and doctor or dental appointments are not considered medical emergencies. For more information about the city’s snow removal policies or for answers to snow-related questions, call 875-4820.

Cans must not weigh more than 35 pounds when full. Customers also can purchase a 90-gallon can from the hauler. This option includes once-a-week and year-round yard waste pickup. There is no limit on yard waste collection. Basic Residential Service: $18.25 per month. This includes twice a week “back door” service which allows up to three 32gallon cans per pickup. Cans must not weigh more than 35 pounds when full. This option includes once-a-week yearround yard waste pickup. There is no limit for yard waste collection. Minimum Removal Service: This option is for persons with little garbage accumulation. There is no monthly fee. The customer must purchase a minimum of ten bags for $23. When bag is full, it must be placed at the street or alley in an approved container when full. Bags must be purchased every 12 months to remain on this service. This option does not include yard waste pickup. Large Item Pickup: Once a week collection and Basic Residential Service options include free removal each year of one household appliance (such as a stove, refrigerator and dishwasher) and five other items that are too large to fit in a garbage container. Haulers must be notified in advance. Items must be placed at the curb.
It is against the law to share service with another household. It is considered theft of service and if caught, fines of up to $500 (plus court costs) could be imposed. Missed stops on your regularly scheduled day should be reported to your hauler immediately. This will allow ample time for the driver to return. Haulers can charge additional fees for extra bags or unusual items (due to recent rate increases at the landfills). Customers should call in advance to make arrangements. Haulers should handle garbage containers and lids with care. Cans should be thoroughly emptied and then returned to where they were placed for collection, with no spills. Once a year each residential customer can interrupt service for a minimum two month period. This must be arranged with your hauler to prevent billing problems. Garbage trucks should be covered to prevent garbage spills and/or leaks from refuse removal vehicles. Rental property is the responsibility of the property owner. Therefore, the hauler may request service to be in the property owner’s name. Property owners are responsible for contacting the hauler when their property becomes vacant to prevent billing errors.
City of Decatur Yard Waste Service Landscape waste is banned from Illinois landfills. In addition, landscape waste may not be burned anywhere within the corporate limits of the city of Decatur. The Decatur-Macon County Composting Facility, 3520 N. Bearsdale Road, is the only facility in Macon County that accepts yard waste and properly processes it. Hours of operation are 7 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday (call for Saturday hours). The facility accepts yard waste by the compost bag full, 32-gallon can full and varying truck load sizes. Dumping fee is based upon size of load. Call 424-1626 for fees and more information. The city of Decatur licenses haulers to collect and dispose of landscape waste from Decatur residents. For a flat monthly rate, residents receive unlimited weekly landscape waste collection. There is unlimited collection of residential landscape waste weekly, except between Jan. 1 and March 31, when weekly removal of landscape waste will only be provided upon customer request. Each request for weekly landscape waste removal must be made to the hauler a minimum of 24 hours in advance of a regularly scheduled pick up. For questions or more information about yard waste disposal, call your designated refuse hauler or contact the city of Decatur’s Environmental Standards Technician at 424-2784. Residents who have questions about alternative yard waste disposal and management strategies such as composting and/or mulching may call the Master Gardener Program at University of Illinois Extension at 877-6872.

landscape waste, (other than limbs and branches as cited above), must be placed in paper compost bags or approved containers. Approved containers must be no larger than 32-gallon cans, must have tight fitting lids and opposing handles and must be marked with a yellow “Yard Waste Only” sticker. Pick up free “Yard Waste Only” stickers at the Decatur Civic Center at the second floor Water Payment Window or the third floor Economic & Urban Development Department. Containers and/or bags are to be placed within three feet of the curb or alley line, whichever location is designated by hauler for pick up, no earlier than 24 hours before the established removal time. LIMBS AND BRANCHES: In the city of Decatur, limbs, branches and wood set out for removal must be tied securely in bundles not to exceed 48 inches in length. Bundles may not weight more than 35 pounds and should be placed within three feet of the curb or alley line (whichever location is established by hauler) no earlier than 24 hours before the established removal time.
Village of Forsyth Yard Waste Service LEAVES:
Leaves must be in place for collection by 8 a.m. of the collection day. Leaf piles are to be placed so that vacuum equipment can be used. Do not place leaves around mailboxes, signs, utility poles and in intersections. Landscape waste such as grass clippings and garden waste will not be collected. Mixed piles of leaves, tree limbs or other landscape waste will not be collected. The village staff has a right to refuse to remove any landscape waste deemed not in compliance with the village’s guidelines. It is not the village staff’s responsibility to assist village residents in removing landscape waste that does not qualify as leaves. Burning of leaves is permitted. However, the Village Burn Ordinance will apply. LIMBS AND BRANCHES:
Limbs must be in place for collection by 8 a.m. of the collection day. The collection period starts the first Monday in March and ends the Last Monday in November. A tree limb is defined as a limb removed from the trunk of a tree. Tree limbs must be no longer than 8 feet and no greater than 10 inches in diameter. Trunks and root balls may not be removed by the village. If the resident or business owner hires a commercial tree trimming company to cut down a tree, the commercial contractor is responsible for tree limb removal.
