This chapter shall be known and cited as the "Gates Property
Maintenance Law" and will be referred to herein as "this chapter."
The purpose of this chapter is to prevent the gradual encroachment
of blight, deterioration, unsightliness and property devaluation and
to assure that all premises within the Town of Gates are maintained
in a manner that, in the discretion of the Building Inspector, will
assure the safety, health and welfare of the general public.
