[Adopted 2-17-1923]
Every owner, lessee, tenant, occupant or other
person having charge of any building or lot of ground in the Town
abutting upon any street, avenue or public place where the sidewalk
is paved or in the fire limits shall, within four hours, and elsewhere
within 10 hours, after the snow ceases to fall, remove the snow and
ice from such sidewalk, the time between 7:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. not
being included in the above period of four hours and 10 hours respectively;
provided, however, that such removal shall in all such cases be made
before the removal of snow and ice from the roadway by the Superintendent
of Highways or subject to the regulations of said Superintendent for
the removal of snow and ice. When any ice forms upon any sidewalk,
it shall be the duty of such persons to place thereon sufficient sifted
ashes or sand to prevent persons from slipping until such ice shall
be wholly removed. Any owner, lessee, tenant, occupant or other person
who has charge of any ground abutting upon the paved sidewalks of
any street, avenue or public place for a linear distance of 500 feet
or more shall be considered to have complied with this article if
such person shall have begun to remove the snow and ice from the sidewalk
and gutter before the expiration of said four hours and 10 hours respectively
and shall continue such removal and shall complete it within a reasonable
time.
A.
Whenever any owner, lessee, tenant, occupant or other
person having charge of any building or lot of ground abutting upon
any street or public place where the sidewalk is paved shall fail
to comply with the provisions of this article on the side of the street
on which such building or lot abuts, the Superintendent of Highways
may cause such snow and ice to be removed, meeting the expense thereof
from any suitable fund, and thereafter the expense of such removal
as to each particular lot of ground shall be ascertained and certified
by said Superintendent of the Town Board.
B.
The Town Board is hereby directed and authorized to
sue for and recover in the name of the Town of Harrison the amount
of this expense, together with a penalty of not more than $15 and
not less than $5 for each offense, and when so recovered, the amount
shall be turned over to the Supervisor to be deposited to the credit
of the general fund of the Town of Harrison.
[Amended 2-19-1986 by L.L. No. 2-1986]
Any person violating any of the provisions of
this article shall, upon conviction, be punishable by a fine not to
exceed $250 or by imprisonment for a term not to exceed 15 days, or
both.
