§ 6-628. Liability of village
in certain actions.

No civil action shall be brought or maintained
against the Village of Scotia for damages or injuries to person or
property sustained in consequence of any street, highway, bridge,
culvert, sidewalk or crosswalk being defective, out of repair, unsafe,
dangerous or obstructed or in consequence of the existence or accumulation
of snow or ice upon any street, highway, bridge, culvert, sidewalk
or crosswalk unless written notice of the existence of such condition,
relating to the particular place, had theretofore actually been given
to the Village Clerk-Treasurer of the Village of Scotia and there
had been a failure or neglect on the part of said village to cause
such condition to be corrected or such snow or ice to be removed or
the place otherwise made reasonably safe within a reasonable time
after the receipt of such notice.

Nothing herein contained, however, shall be
held to revive any claim or cause of action now barred by any existing
requirement or statute of limitations nor to waive any existing limitation
now applicable to any claim or cause of action against the Village
of Scotia.
