A. 
The Enforcement Officer shall review the application for a motorcade, parade or public assembly permit. In the event the Enforcement Officer determines that the application for a motorcade, parade or public assembly permit satisfies the conditions set forth in this chapter and any special conditions imposed or applicable, the Enforcement Officer shall issue a motorcade, parade or public assembly permit. In the event the Enforcement Officer determines that the application for a motorcade, parade or public assembly permit satisfies most of the conditions set forth in this chapter, the Enforcement Officer may, but is not required to, issue a motorcade, parade or public assembly permit based upon the remaining conditions being met prior to the occurrence of the motorcade, parade or public assembly.
B. 
The Enforcement Officer may make inspections of each motorcade, parade or public assembly to ensure that the requirements of this chapter and/or any permit are met. The Enforcement Officer shall report any observed violations to the Town Board.
C. 
The Enforcement Officer shall issue a noncompliance notice for any conditions that are observed to be in violation of this chapter, or in violation of any conditions stated upon any motorcade, parade or public assembly permit. Any person who receives a noncompliance notice shall be in violation of this chapter and shall endeavor to bring the motorcade, parade or public assembly into compliance as soon as possible.
D. 
In the event of a disaster, calamity, riot or other public emergency, any of the Enforcement Officer, the Town Constable, the Tompkins County Sheriff's Department, the New York State Police, or any person designated by the Town in the event the Town declares any state of emergency, may immediately revoke a motorcade, parade or public assembly permit by delivering a written revocation to the permittee. Such revocation may take effect immediately upon delivery.
After issuance of any noncompliance notice, the Enforcement Officer may revoke or restrict any motorcade, parade or public assembly permit. If any court proceedings are brought concerning such alleged violations, and the permittee is found not guilty, or there is another adjudication in favor of the permittee pertaining to the alleged violation of this chapter or any motorcade, parade or public assembly permit issued hereunder, then the motorcade, parade or public assembly permit shall be reinstated by the Enforcement Officer with the same effect as if no noncompliance notice had ever been issued and no revocation had occurred. If no such court proceeding is brought, then within 10 days of such revocation, any aggrieved permittee may request a hearing before the Town Board. If a hearing is so requested, the Town Board shall hold such hearing within 20 days. Such hearing may be a public hearing at the sole discretion of the Town Board. Notice of any public hearing shall be made in the official newspaper at least five days prior to the date thereof. Each permittee shall be notified of the hearing by certified mail at least five days prior to the hearing. At the hearing, the Town Board shall hear all persons wishing to be heard concerning the revocation of the motorcade, parade or public assembly permit. The Town Board shall issue its decision within 10 days of any hearing and may confirm the revocation of the motorcade, parade or public assembly permit, reinstate such motorcade, parade or public assembly permit, or reinstate (and/or amend or re-issue) such motorcade, parade or public assembly permit upon any one or more conditions.
The Enforcement Officer may order any permittee, applicant or unpermitted sponsor to clean up, remediate, and restore any property upon which a permitted or unpermitted motorcade, parade or public assembly (including those for which a permit was revoked) occurs. The subject property shall be restored to its condition prior to use as a motorcade, parade or public assembly site, or to its natural condition. The permittee, applicant or unpermitted sponsor shall have no more than one day in which to clean up, remediate, and restore the subject property. Upon notification given by the Enforcement Officer to the Town Supervisor that the permittee, applicant or unpermitted sponsor of a motorcade, parade or public assembly has failed or refuses to clean up, remediate, and/or restore the subject premises within that one-day period, the Town Supervisor may, but is not required to, cause the Town to commence or contract out the clean up, remediation, and restoration of the subject property. After such work has been completed, the Enforcement Officer shall file in the office of the Town Clerk a verified statement of all the direct costs of the cleanup, remediation, and/or restoration of the subject premises, together with a 50% surcharge as compensation to the Town for administering, supervising, and handling said work in accord with the provisions of this chapter. Such verified statement shall be served by personal service or by certified mail upon the permittee, applicant or unpermitted sponsor at the time of filing.
The Town may enter a civil judgment against any permittee, applicant or unpermitted sponsor in the amount of any verified statement. Such civil action may be commenced in the Town Court, or any other court of competent jurisdiction, and enforced in accord with law.
[Amended at time of adoption of Code (see Ch. 1, General Provisions, Art. I)]
A. 
The Town may enter a civil judgment against any permittee, applicant or unpermitted sponsor in the amount of any verified statement. Such civil action may be commenced in the Town's justice court, or any other court of competent jurisdiction, and enforced in accord with law.
B. 
All provisions of New York State law generally applicable to misdemeanors shall apply to any criminal proceeding brought under this chapter, and any misdemeanor shall be deemed an unclassified misdemeanor. For purposes of this chapter the Town's justice court is hereby vested and imbued with jurisdiction to issue administrative and other warrants in compliance with the New York Criminal Procedure Law and administrative codes of the State of New York, as well as to hear and adjudicate allegations relating to the criminal or civil violation of this chapter and thereafter, if appropriate, impose any fine, penalty, or sanction.
C. 
Any person or entity that violates any of the provisions of this chapter shall be guilty of a criminal violation and subject to a fine of not more than $1,000, or subject to a civil penalty of not more than $2,500 to be recovered by the Town in a civil action. Each week that any noncompliance or violation continues is and may be charged as a separate violation.
D. 
In addition to any other remedy, a violation of, or noncompliance with, this chapter may result in the termination, modification, or revocation of any permits or approvals as issued.
E. 
The application or pursuit of any civil or criminal fine, sanction, or penalty shall not preclude the pursuit of any other lawful remedy by the Town, including, but not limited to, the right to seek equitable relief.
(1) 
Whenever the Town shall believe from evidence satisfactory to it that there is a violation of this chapter, the Town may bring an action to enjoin and restrain the continuation of such violation and in any such action:
(a) 
Preliminary relief may be granted under Article 63 of the Civil Practice Law and Rules; and
(b) 
The Town shall not be required to post any bond or undertaking; and
(c) 
The Town need not prove that:
[1] 
There is or will likely be irreparable harm; or
[2] 
That the Town has no adequate remedy at law.
(2) 
In such action, the court may also award any damages or other relief requested, including declaring the rights and interests of any parties and imposing any civil penalties. The remedies provided by this chapter shall not be in lieu of, and shall be in addition to, any other right or remedy available to the Town, whether sounding in enforcement or otherwise.
A transfer of title (or any interests therein) in any premises by any owner shall be no defense to any proceeding under this chapter. No assignment of any obligations imposed by this chapter shall be a defense to any proceeding under this chapter.
Each person working upon any cleanup, remediation, or restoration work following a motorcade, parade or public assembly, including all persons acting in furtherance of the performance of any work pursuant to or under any noncompliance notice, shall indemnify, keep and save harmless the Town from and against any and all losses, costs, damages, expenses, judgments, claims, or liabilities of any kind whatsoever which may accrue against or be charged to or recovered from the Town from or by reason of or on account of accidents, injuries, damages, and/or losses to persons or property during any cleanup, remediation, or restoration work. This indemnity provision shall be construed and applied to the maximum extent permitted by law.
In the cleanup, remediation, or restoration of the premises of any motorcade, parade or public assembly, or any part thereof, any and all cleanup, remediation, or restoration work shall be undertaken with a diligent regard to, and a diligent application of, all applicable safety standards, rules, laws and regulations, in accord with the safest practice and customs in the applicable cleanup industry.
The Town shall not be liable or responsible for any injury to persons or damage to property due to the Town's actions or failures to act under or pursuant to this chapter, unless it is proven to a reasonable degree of certainty that such injury or damage was solely caused by a willful or intentional act of the Town. Such limitation includes, but is not limited to, any and all claims that injury, damage, loss or liability was caused or contributed to in whole or in part by the issuance or non-issuance of any permit, or the alleged or actual failure to impose or not impose any certain conditions, or the alleged or actual failure to verify or monitor compliance or noncompliance with this chapter or any permit issued hereunder.
