Non-Highway Vehicles Ordinance
 
The McHenry City Council passed an ordinance that will soon allow the operation of non-highway vehicles on City streets.  Vehicles will need to be registered prior to their operation.   The application for such registration is not yet available, but will be prior to the non-highway vehicle season, which begins May 1st. Not all streets will be open to non-highway vehicles.
