It shall be unlawful for any person to operate, within the limits
of the Village of Lake Placid, any electrical apparatus, device, machine,
or equipment which needlessly and unnecessarily causes interference
with radio reception when such interference can be reasonably prevented
by means of repairs, adjustments, the installation of corrective appliances,
or other practicable alterations.
The administration and enforcement of this article shall be
entrusted to a radio or electric inspector or other municipal official
whose duty it shall be to investigate complaints of radio interference,
to locate the sources of such interference, to advise and make recommendations
as to its elimination, and who is hereby authorized to issue orders
for such repairs, adjustments, or alterations, to be complied within
a reasonable length of time, as shall be practicable and reasonably
necessary to prevent the continuance of such interference.
The radio inspector shall, upon presentation of his badge or
other evidence of his authority, have the right of access to any premises
at any reasonable hour for the purpose of inspecting the installation
and operation of any device or equipment coming within the provisions
of this article, and it shall be unlawful for any person to interfere
with such inspector or to hinder him in the discharge of his duties.
Any person violating the provisions of this article, or who
shall fail to comply with the orders of the radio inspector within
the time specified therein, shall upon conviction be punished by fine
of not less than $5, nor more than $10. Each day which such violation
or failure to comply continues shall constitute a separate offense.
