Latest version.
  • A.

    The provisions of this Code shall apply to the construction, addition, alteration, moving, repair and use of any building, structure, parcel of land or sign within the town, except work located primarily in a public way, public utility towers and poles and public utilities unless specifically mentioned in this Code.

    B.

    Where, in any case, different sections of this Code specify different requirement, the more restrictive shall govern. Where there is conflict between a general requirement and a specific requirement, the specific requirement shall be applicable.

    C.

    In fulfilling these purposes, this ordinance is intended to benefit the public as a whole and not any specific person or class of persons. Although, through the implementation, administration and enforcement of this Code, benefits and detriments will be enjoyed or suffered by specific individuals, such as merely a byproduct of the overall benefit to the whole community. Therefore, the Town of St. Francisville, its officers, agents and employees shall have qualified immunity against unintentional breaches of the obligation of administration and enforcement imposed on the jurisdiction hereby.

    D.

    If any portion of this Code is held invalid for any reason, the remaining herein shall not be affected.
