§ 6-628 Liability of village in certain actions. No civil action shall
be maintained against the village for damages or injuries to person or
property sustained in consequence of any street, highway, bridge,
culvert, sidewalk or crosswalk being defective, out of repair, unsafe,
dangerous or obstructed or for damages or injuries to person or property
sustained solely in consequence of the existence of snow or ice upon any
sidewalk, crosswalk, street, highway, bridge or culvert unless written
notice of the defective, unsafe, dangerous or obstructed condition or of
the existence of the snow or ice, relating to the particular place, was
actually given to the village clerk and there was a failure or neglect
within a reasonable time after the receipt of such notice to repair or
remove the defect, danger or obstruction complained of, or to cause the
snow or ice to be removed, or the place otherwise made reasonably safe.
