Vending Machines

Title 11, Chapter 119 of the Village Code requires that all vending machines located in the village display a valid vending license. A vending machine is one that dispenses a variety of products in exchange for payment of some type. Vending machine products may include beverages, food, and any other type of personal property.

  • A separate license is required for each encased unit having one or more slots for payment, or multiple machines attached together and operated by a common slot for payment.
  • Separately encased units bundled together on a stand, support or rack shall have a separate license for each unit.
  • The license for vending machines is valid from January 1 through December 31. Licenses must be renewed annually.

Vending Machines Fees:

  • Gumball, Stickers and Trinket Coin-Operated Machines: $25
  • All Other Coin-Operated Machines (other than amusement devices): $50
  • Jukebox: $90
  • Fees for license purchased after December 31 are doubled.

Electric Vehicle Charging Stations

Any person or entity owning or operating an electric vehicle charging station within the Village must obtain a vending license pursuant to Section 119.30 et seq. of this Code. The vending license is required for all electric vehicle charging stations; not just those available for public use.
