[Adopted 12-1-1977 by L.L. No. 17-1977]
The Town Board of the Town of Woodbury finds that the transporting of
alcoholic beverages in open containers on any public highway, in public parking
lots or land owned by the Town of Woodbury, except under certain conditions
hereinafter set forth, is detrimental to the health, safety and welfare of
the citizens of the Town of Woodbury, causes unsightly and unsanitary conditions
and creates a nuisance.
The presence of an open container containing an alcoholic beverage within
a motor vehicle shall be presumptive evidence that said container is in the
possession of all persons occupying said vehicle.
[Amended 5-1-1980 by L.L. No. 6-1980]

punishable as follows: not more than $50 for a first violation; not more than
