[Adopted 4-16-1984 by L.L. No. 2-1984]
The Board of Trustees hereby finds and declares
that smoke detectors, when properly installed and maintained, save
lives and reduce property loss in case of fire in buildings used for
residential purposes.
Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms
used in this article will have the same meaning ascribed to them in
the New York State Uniform Fire Prevention and Building Code and Article
18 of the Executive Law of the State of New York.
As of the 15th day of August 1984, the standards
and requirements of the Code with respect to the location, manner
of installation, quality, performance and maintenance of single station
smoke-detecting alarm devices in dwelling units shall, pursuant to
§ 379 of the Executive Law, apply to any dwelling unit within
the Village of Akron, regardless of when such unit was constructed.
