HomeMy WebLinkAbout2005_10_19_Local_Law_No_17 Local Law 17 - 2005 This local law shall be known as the "First Amendment to the `Removal of Illegal Connections and the Elimination of Illegal Discharge of Liquids' Law." BE IT ENACTED by the Town Board of the Town of Mamaroneck as follows: Section 1 -Purpose. On May 4, 2005, the Town Board added §106-49 entitled "Requirement for a Discharge Compliance Certificate" to the Code of the Town of Mamaroneck. This law created a new certificate called a Discharge Compliance Certificate. A Discharge Compliance Certificate is a certification that all of the connections leading from a parcel of land comply with the laws regulating the discharge of liquids from such property. Under § 106-49, the occupancy of buildings on real property in the unincorporated area of the Town will be illegal when such property is sold unless a Discharge Compliance Certificate is issued for that property. Since this new requirement will have an impact upon the sale of real property in the unincorporated area of the Town, the Town Board has determined that there is a need to educate the public about this new certificate before § 106- 49 goes into effect. This law creates a time period for that educational process by not requiring Discharge Compliance Certificates for sales of real property until after January 1, 2006. Section 2 - Amendment to an Existing Section of the Code of the Town of Mamaroneck Section 106-49 A. of the Code of the Town of Mamaroneck hereby is amended by deleting the word and numbers "October 15, 2005" therefrom and substituting the word and numbers "January 1, 2006"in its place. Section 3 -Severability Should any court of competent jurisdiction declare any provision of this Local Law invalid or unconstitutional, such declaration of unconstitutionality or invalidity shall not affect any other provisions of this Local Law, which may be implemented without the invalid or unconstitutional provisions. Section 4-Effective Date This Local Law shall become effective on the date that it is filed in the office of the Secretary of State.
