A. Legislative intent. It is the purpose of this section
to protect the public interest, welfare, health and safety within
the Incorporated Village of Floral Park by prohibiting the consumption
of alcoholic beverages in public places within the Village. The Village
Board of Trustees finds that possession of an open container of an
alcoholic beverage in a public place within the Village, except under
controlled conditions, is detrimental to the health, safety and welfare
of the residents of the Village in that such possession has led to
the consumption of the alcoholic beverage, resulting in public intoxication,
disorderly conduct, disturbance of the public peace, littering of
the public places and destruction of property. The Village Board finds,
further, that preservation of the public health, safety and welfare
and the prevention of the conditions which lead to conduct disturbing
to the public peace, attributable to the consumption of alcoholic
beverages, can be accomplished by prohibiting the consumption of alcoholic
beverages in public places and by restricting the possession of an
open or unsealed container of an alcoholic beverage under circumstances
which indicate that the possessor of such open or unsealed container
in a public place intends to consume the same or intends to have it
consumed by another person.
