[Adopted 5-26-1984 by L.L. No. 6-1984]
This article shall be called the "Notice of
Sidewalk Defects Law."
No civil action shall be brought or maintained
against the Village of Rye Brook for damages or injuries to person
or property sustained in consequence of any street, highway, bridge,
culvert, sewer, sidewalk or crosswalk or streets or appurtenances
being defective, out of repair, unsafe, dangerous or obstructed or
in consequence of the existence or accumulation of snow or ice thereon
unless written notice of the existence of such condition, relating
to the particular place, had theretofore actually been given to the
Village Clerk of the Village of Rye Brook and there had been a failure
or neglect on the part of said Village to cause such condition to
be corrected or such snow or ice to be removed or the place otherwise
made reasonably safe within a reasonable time after the receipt of
such notice.
Nothing herein contained, however, shall be
held to revive any claim or cause of action now barred by any existing
requirement or statute or limitation nor to waive any existing limitation
now applicable to any claim or cause of action against the Village
of Rye Brook.
