[Amended 3-4-1985 by L.L. No. 1-1985]
By the adoption of this article, the Town Board
of the Town of Kent discloses its intent to regulate the operation
within the Town of the refuse disposal area to be determined by the
Board and to prohibit the disposing of refuse in the Town at any other
site, unless otherwise directed by the Board. The disposing of refuse,
garbage and rubbish in an open area constitutes a menace to the public
health, safety and welfare and can have an adverse effect upon the
growth and development of the Town. Therefore, pursuant to the authority
contained in the Town Law § 130, Subdivision 6, and pursuant
to the police power contained in the Town Law, the Town Board of the
Town of Kent does hereby ordain the following.
[Amended 4-2-1973 by L.L. No. 4-1973; 9-10-1984 by L.L. No. 2-1984]
Any person who consents to or permits any act
or acts in violation of any of the provisions of this article shall
be deemed to have committed an offense against such article and shall
be punishable by a fine not exceeding $500 or by imprisonment for
not exceeding 30 days, or both, for each violation, in addition to
revocation of the permit to use said refuse disposal area. Each day
such violation shall continue or be permitted to exist shall constitute
a separate offense.
