It is hereby found that the destruction and damage of stone walls along
the entire length of Broadway, New York State Route 9, in the Village of Tarrytown
(the "stone walls"), would diminish the historic character of the Village,
reduce property values and adversely affect the health, safety and general
welfare of the inhabitants of the Village. These stone walls constitute a
scenic resource, and it is the purpose of this chapter to protect this resource.
The Building Inspector of the Village of Tarrytown shall enforce this
chapter, except where such enforcement is vested with the Department of Public
Works by the laws of the State of New York.
All stone walls on Village property are exempt from the provisions of
this law.
