Description
The appellant, Edward Kushmer, was found guilty by a jury in the circuit court of Macon County of violating section 24 of
chapter 47 of the Municipal Code of the City of Decatur, fined $200, and ordered to pay the costs of the proceeding. He has
appealed directly to this court claiming constitutional violations. The legislature has delegated to municipalities the power to "define, prevent and abate nuisances" (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1967,
ch. 24, par. 11-60-2) and to make regulations which may be "necessary or expedient" to promote health and suppress disease.
Ill. Rev. Stat. 1967, ch. 24, par. 11-20-5.
