§ 28-50. Legislative intent.  


Latest version.
  • A. 
    The Town Board of the Town of North Hempstead has determined that proper handling and prompt removal of litter, garbage, debris, refuse, rubbish, dust, sand, mud and dirt from construction sites, buildings under construction and areas, sidewalks, streets and rights-of-way abutting or adjacent thereto are essential to the preservation of the public health, safety and general welfare.
    B. 
    The Town Board finds that the failure to properly handle and promptly remove said matter has severe adverse effects on the community by tending to create a nuisance; create hazardous conditions which may result in injury to person or property; attract vermin; cause annoyance to residents and other persons who work in or pass through the Town; and detract from the aesthetics of the neighborhoods involved.
    C. 
    This article is enacted to eliminate the aforementioned consequences.
