[HISTORY: Adopted by the Town Board of the Town of Islip 7-6-82 as Local
Law No. 2, 1982. Amendments noted where applicable.]
This local law shall be known as the "Tree Law of the Town of Islip."
The purpose of this local law is to assist in enforcing, policing and
prosecuting wanton and indiscriminate theft, cutting and damage of trees from
private and public property in the Town of Islip, which deprives individuals
and others of their rightful property.
No person, firm, association, corporation or partnership shall cut,
damage, carve, dig or remove any tree, whether living or not living, standing
or downed on public or private property without the prior written consent
of the owner of said property. Any person acting to cut, damage, carve, dig
or remove a tree or trees shall display the written consent of the owner upon
demand to any person authorized to enforce the local laws of the Town of Islip.
Failure to display written consent of the owner to cut, damage, carve, dig
or remove any tree or trees upon request by enforcing authorities shall be
violation of this local law.
Any violation of this local law shall be punishable by a fine of not
less than fifty dollars ($50.) nor more than one thousand dollars ($1,000.)
per tree or imprisonment for not more than fifteen (15) days, or by both such
fine and imprisonment.
If any section, provision or part thereof in this local law shall be
adjudged invalid or unconstitutional by a court of competent jurisdiction,
then such adjudication shall not affect the validity of the local law as a
whole or any section, provision or part thereof not so adjudged invalid or
unconstitutional.
