A. 
The Board of Trustees of the Village of Hewlett Bay Park hereby finds and concludes that certain species of bamboo are invasive, and dangerous to the public health, safety and welfare of persons and property in the Village of Hewlett Bay Park, and that they constitute a public nuisance. Such invasive species have the potential to grow in a manner which extends off the property on which they are planted and on to adjacent properties, and to cause damage to such adjacent properties. This legislation is intended to provide a remedy to adjoining property owners where such invasive species are planted on other property and cross the property line between such properties.
B. 
In any case where it has come to the attention of the Village that such an invasive species has been planted on property in the Village, and has grown or extended onto adjoining property in the Village without the consent of the owner of such adjoining property, the Village Building Official is authorized to issue an order to the owner(s) and occupants of the property from which such growth originated to confine the plant to the property of such owner or occupant, to take any and all reasonable action necessary to prevent such plant from invading any other property in the Village, and to be responsible to pay the reasonable expenses incurred by the owner of any adjoining property in the Village invaded by such plantings for removal of such plantings and prevention of further invasion. Any person who violates or fails to comply with such an order shall be guilty of a violation of this section.
