In compiling and preparing the local laws, ordinances and resolutions
of the Town for publication as the Code of the Town of Boston, as distributed
and designated in the table in § 1-2 hereof, no changes in the meaning
or intent of such local laws, ordinances and resolutions have been made.
A copy of the Code of the Town of Boston, in loose-leaf form, has been
filed in the office of the Town Clerk of the Town of Boston and shall remain
there for use and examination by the public until final action is taken on
this local law; and if this local law shall be adopted, such copy shall be
certified by the Town Clerk by impressing thereon the Seal of the Town of
Boston, and such certified copy shall remain on file in the office of said
Town Clerk to be made available to persons desiring to examine the same during
all times while said Code is in effect.
A.
In compiling and preparing the local laws, ordinances
and resolutions for adoption and revision as part of the Code pursuant to
the Municipal Home Rule Law § 20, Subdivision 3, certain grammatical
changes and other minor changes were made in one or more of the local laws,
ordinances or resolutions. It is the intention of the Town Board that all
such changes be adopted as part of the Code as if the provisions so changed
had been previously formally amended to read as such.
B.
In addition, certain changes, amendments and additions
are enacted herewith, to become effective upon the effective date of this
local law (chapter and section number references are to these materials as
they are numbered and appear in the Code).[1]
[1]
Editor's Note: In accordance with the provisions of § 1-7B,
the following sections have been added or amended: §§ 44-4,
53-10, 60-10, 60-12A(4), 63-8, 67-6C, 73-4C, 76-5, 81-8, 84-15, 87-7, 92-38,
95-5A(3), 95-18, 101-10A, 104-3B, 104-18, 118-4 and A128-2. A complete description
of these changes is included in L.L. No. 3-1988, on file in the office of
the Town Clerk.
Any and all additions, deletions, amendments or supplements to any of
the local laws, ordinances and resolutions known collectively as the "Code
of the Town of Boston," or any new local laws, ordinances or resolutions,
when enacted or adopted in such form as to indicate the intention of the Town
Board to be a part thereof, shall be deemed to be incorporated into such Code
so that reference to the Code of the Town of Boston shall be understood and
intended to include such additions, deletions, amendments or supplements.
Whenever such additions, deletions, amendments or supplements to the Code
of the Town of Boston shall be enacted or adopted, they shall thereafter be
printed and, as provided hereunder, inserted in the loose-leaf book containing
said Code, as amendments and supplements thereto.
It shall be the duty of the Town Clerk to keep up-to-date the certified
copy of the book containing the Code of the Town of Boston required to be
filed in the office of the Town Clerk for use by the public. All changes in
said Code and all local laws, ordinances and resolutions adopted by the Town
Board subsequent to the enactment of this local law in such form as to indicate
the intention of said Board to be a part of said Code shall, when finally
enacted or adopted, be included therein by temporary attachment of copies
of such changes or local laws, ordinances or resolutions until such changes
or local laws, ordinances or resolutions are printed as supplements to said
Code book, at which time such supplements shall be inserted therein.
Copies of the Code book containing the Code of the Town of Boston may
be purchased from the Town Clerk upon the payment of a fee to be set by resolution
of the Town Board, which may also arrange by resolution for procedures for
the periodic supplementation thereof.
Any person who, without authorization from the Town Clerk, changes or
amends, by additions or deletions, any part or portion of the Code of the
Town of Boston, or who alters or tampers with such Code in any manner whatsoever
which will cause the legislation of the Town of Boston to be misrepresented
thereby, or who violates any other provision of this local law, shall be guilty
of an offense and shall, upon conviction thereof, be subject to a fine of
not more than $250 or imprisonment for a term of not more than 15 days, or
both.
Any person committing an offense against any chapter or Article of this
Code for which a different penalty is not specifically provided shall be guilty
of a violation under the Penal Law and, upon conviction thereof, shall be
punishable for each offense by a fine of not more than $250 or by imprisonment
for not more than 15 days, or by both such fine and imprisonment. Each day
that an offense continues shall constitute a separate violation.
If any clause, sentence, paragraph, section, Article or part of this
local law or of any local law or ordinance cited in the table in § 1-2
hereof shall be adjudged by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid,
such judgment shall not affect, impair or invalidate the remainder thereof
but shall be confined in its operation to the clause, sentence, paragraph,
section, Article or part thereof directly involved in the controversy in which
such judgment shall have been rendered.
This local law and the Code of the Town of Boston adopted hereby shall
take effect immediately upon the filing with the Secretary of State of the
State of New York of a copy of this local law.
