[HISTORY: Adopted by the Town Board of the Town of Cortlandt 7-19-1983
as L.L. No. 3-1983. Section 117-6 amended at time of adoption of Code; see
Ch. 1, General Provisions, Art. I. Other amendments noted where applicable.]
This chapter shall be known and may be cited as the "Town of Cortlandt
Alcoholic Beverage Control Law."
This chapter is intended to provide control of the consumption of alcoholic
beverages in public places because the Town of Cortlandt recognized that the
consumption of alcoholic beverages in public places has led, from time to
time, to nuisances, littering and other conduct detrimental to the health,
safety and welfare of the residents of the town.
As used herein, the following words shall have the meanings below set
forth:
Includes all such beverages as defined in § 3 of the Alcoholic
Beverage Control Law of the State of New York.
Any highway, street, sidewalk, park, playground, parking lot, shopping
center, mall or any other place to which the public or a substantial group
of persons has access, but excluding those public places wherein the use and
consumption of alcoholic beverages is authorized pursuant to a license or
permit issued under the Alcoholic Beverage Control Law of the State of New
York or under the provisions of this chapter.
No person shall consume or ingest any alcoholic beverage in any public
place within the Town of Cortlandt, nor shall any person cause, permit or
procure to be consumed alcoholic beverages as defined above in any public
place as defined above.
The foregoing prohibition against drinking alcoholic beverages in public
places shall not apply or be a violation of this chapter in the event of a
gathering which has been granted a special permit by a Supervisor of the Town
of Cortlandt or by the Superintendent of Parks, Recreation and Conservation
of the Town of Cortlandt.
[Amended 8-17-1993 by L.L.
No. 2-1993]
Any person, upon conviction for violation of this chapter, shall be
punishable by a fine not to exceed two hundred fifty dollars ($250.) or up
to fifteen (15) days in jail or by a civil penalty not exceeding one thousand
dollars ($1,000.).
