[HISTORY: Adopted by the Board of Trustees of the Incorporated Village of Bayville as indicated in article histories. Amendments noted where applicable.]
[Adopted 8-22-2022 by L.L. No. 3-2022]
In accordance with Subdivision 3 of § 20 of the Municipal Home Rule Law, the local laws, ordinances and certain resolutions of the Village of Bayville, as codified and consisting of Chapters 1 through 80 are hereby approved, adopted, and enacted as the Code of the Village of Bayville, hereinafter referred to as the "Code." The provisions of the Code, insofar as they are substantively the same as those of local laws, ordinances and resolutions in force immediately prior to the enactment of the Code by this local law, are intended as a continuation of such local laws, ordinances and resolutions and not as new enactments. This local law and the Code adopted hereby shall supersede and replace the 1981 Code of the Village of Bayville, as amended and supplemented.
A. 
A copy of the Code has been filed in the office of the Village Clerk and shall remain there for use and examination by the public until final action is taken on this local law. Following adoption of this local law such copy shall be certified to by the Clerk of the Village of Bayville by impressing thereon the Seal of the Village, as provided by law, and such certified copy shall remain on file in the office of the Village Clerk, to be made available to persons desiring to examine the same during all times while said Code is in effect.
B. 
Additions or amendments to the Code, when adopted in such form as to indicate the intent of the Board of Trustees to make them a part thereof, shall be deemed to be incorporated into such Code so that reference to the "Code of the Village of Bayville" shall be understood and intended to include such additions and amendments. Nothing contained in this local law shall affect the status of any local law, ordinance or resolution contained in the Code, and such local laws, ordinances or resolutions may be amended, deleted or changed from time to time as the Board of Trustees deems desirable.
In the event that notice of enactment of this local law is required due to amendments adopted by way of this local law to zoning or land use provisions, or is otherwise required by law, the Clerk of the Village of Bayville shall cause notice of the enactment of this local law to be given in the manner required by law. The notice of the enactment of this local law, coupled with the availability of a copy of the Code for inspection by the public, shall be deemed, held and considered to be due and legal publication of all provisions of the Code for all purposes.
Each section of this local law and of the Code and every part of each section is an independent section or part of a section, and the holding of any section or a part thereof to be unconstitutional, void or ineffective for any cause shall not be deemed to affect the validity or constitutionality of any other sections or parts thereof.
A. 
Repeal of inconsistent enactments. All local laws and ordinances of a general and permanent nature, or parts of such local laws or ordinances, inconsistent with the provisions contained in the Code adopted by this local law are hereby repealed; provided, however, that such repeal shall only be to the extent of such inconsistency, and any valid legislation of the Village of Bayville which is not in conflict with the provisions of the Code shall be deemed to remain in full force and effect.
