Village sets fees, fines for tobacco sales By Gail Peckler-Dziki CORRESPONDENT
The Antioch Village Board has approved an ordinance establishing fees for selling tobacco products and fines for violating the rules. Village Trustee Scott Pierce said at the board’s Dec. 21 meeting that he was pleased with the ordinance. “This is long overdue and I’m glad to see that the fees are low and the fines are high,” he said. Licensing and background check fees are set at $100 to the village. Fingerprints are done by a variety of vendors who have varying fees and the police department has a list of those vendors. If an applicant fails the background check, the fee paid to the village, minus a $50 processing charge, will be refunded. Fines for the first violation of the ordinance are between $200 and $750. The amended ordinance also states that no tobacco products can be sold within 100 feet of any school, childcare facility or other building used for educational or recreational purposes for those
younger than 18 years old. The village clerk had previously issued licenses at no charge. Complete details of the new ordinance are on the village website under the briefing room link.
Committee revamped The Antioch Village Board voted unanimously to modify the membership of the Environmental Committee at its Dec. 21 meeting. The commission now requires five members instead of nine, in an attempt to ensure the commission can maintain a quorum to allow a meeting. Another issue was that the record showing commission members’ terms expire was lost, so the board approved the following members and terms. Melonnie Hartl, president will serve until April 30, 2020; members Mike Babicz and Scott Frillman will serve until April 30, 2020 and members Peter Grant and Amanda LeBrun will serve until April 30, 2018.
