You will now hear something never legally heard before in Park Ridge - swearing.
The Park Ridge City Council took a law off the books that made it illegal "to use profanity in any street, alley or public place of the City," according to the Chicago Sun-Times.
Police Chief Frank Kaminski told the paper the law wasn't enforced anyway and "presents a freedom of speech issue."
Another disorderly conduct rule outlawing the use of abusive or obscene language or gestures was also deleted.
