This chapter shall be cited and may be referred
to hereinafter as the "Fire Prevention Chapter of the Town of Ramapo."
The intent of this chapter is to prescribe minimum
requirements necessary to establish a reasonable level of life safety
and property protection from the hazards created by fire and explosion.
This chapter is designed to supplement and expand upon the requirements
of the New York State Uniform Fire Prevention and Building Code. Should
there be a discrepancy between this chapter and the New York State
Uniform Code, the more restrictive provision shall apply.
[Amended 2-6-2012 by L.L.
No. 2-2012; 9-29-2016 by L.L. No. 3-2016]
The provisions of this chapter shall apply equally
to new and existing conditions within the unincorporated area of the
Town of Ramapo.
The Bureau of Fire Prevention shall function
as a Board of Appeals for all matters covered by this chapter. The
Bureau of Fire Prevention shall consist of the Building Inspector
of the Town who shall serve as Chief of the Bureau of Fire Prevention
and two members representing each Fire Department within the unincorporated
area of the Town.
