To the extent that any provisions of this chapter are inconsistent
with the Town Law of the State of New York, Chapter 62 of the Consolidated
Laws, Article 16, the Town Board of the Town of Busti hereby declares
its intent to supersede those sections of the Town Law, pursuant to
its home rule powers under Municipal Home Rule Law, Article 2, § 10
et seq., of the Consolidated Laws of the State of New York. The courts
are directed to take notice of this legislative intent and apply it
in the event the Town has failed to specify any provision of law that
may require supersession. The Town hereby declares that it would have
enacted this chapter and superseded such inconsistent provision had
it been apparent.
It is not intended by this chapter to interfere with or abrogate
or annul any easement, covenant, or other agreement between parties;
provided, however, that when this chapter imposes a greater restriction
on the use of structures or land or on the heights of structures,
or requires larger open spaces, or imposes any higher standards than
are imposed or required by any easement, covenant, or agreement, the
provisions of this chapter shall control. Where the requirements of
this chapter differ from the requirements of another statute, law,
ordinance, rule, or regulation, the more restrictive standard shall
govern, unless this chapter specifically states otherwise.
By this chapter, the Town Board of the Town of Busti hereby
repeals the Town's prior Zoning Law and replaces it with this
chapter. This shall take place at the moment this chapter becomes
effective.
