The Village of Kirkland has now made the Village Code Book available to citizens online. Click the link to view codes, ordinances, etc.
Please remember when parking it is unlawful to block or obstruct the sidewalk with any part of your vehicle. This also applies to any vehicle that is parked in your driveway that might be blocking the sidewalk. Police will be strictly enforcing this ordinance during the summer months as this impedes the foot traffic throughout the village. Any questions or concerns, please contact the Kirkland Police department at 815-522-3315.
