Article I Rules of Construction; General Penalty
Article II Adoption of Code by Council
[Adopted 1-17-1972 as Ch. 1 of the 1972 Code of Ordinances]
§ 1-1 Catch lines. [1]
The catch lines of the several sections of this Code printed in boldface type are intended as mere catch words to indicate the contents of the section and shall not be deemed or taken to be titles of such sections nor as any part of the section, nor, unless expressly so provided, shall they be so deemed when any of such sections, including the catch lines, are amended or reenacted.
Editor's Note: Original § 1-1, How Code designated and cited, which immediately preceded this section, was deleted 3-16-1992 by L.L. No. 2-1992.
In the construction of this Code and of all ordinances, the following rules shall be observed, unless such construction would be inconsistent with the manifest intent of the City Council:
Generally. The provisions of this Code shall be liberally construed to effect the purposes expressed therein or implied from the expression thereof. In case of doubt or ambiguity in the meaning of such provisions the general shall yield to the particular. Reference for interpretation and construction shall tend to further the accomplishment of the elimination of the particular mischiefs for which the provisions were enacted. Words shall be construed in their common and usual significance unless the contrary is clearly indicated.
City; corporation. Whenever the words "the City," "this City," "the corporation" or "this corporation" are used, they shall be construed as if the words "of Beacon, New York," followed them.
Computation of time. Whenever a notice is required to be given or an act to be done, a certain length of time before any proceeding shall be had, the day on which such notice is given or such act is done shall be counted in computing the time, but the day on which such proceeding is to be had shall not be counted.
Delegation of authority. Whenever a provision appears requiring the head of a department of the City to do some act or make certain inspections, it is to be construed to authorize the head of the department to designate, delegate and authorize subordinates to perform the required act or make the required inspection unless the terms of the provision or section designates otherwise.
Interpretation. In the interpretation and application of any provision of this Code, it shall be held to be the minimum requirements adopted for the promotion of the public health, safety, comfort, convenience and general welfare. Where any provision of the Code imposes greater restrictions upon the subject matter than the general provision imposed by the Code, the provision imposing the greater restriction or regulation shall be deemed to be controlling.
Name of officer. Whenever the name of an officer is given, it shall be construed as though the words "of the City of Beacon" were added.
Or; and. "Or" may be read "and," and "and" may be read "or" if the sense requires it.
Tense. Words used in the past or present tense shall include the future as well as the past and present.
Definitions. As used in this Code, the following terms shall have the meanings indicated:
The Beacon City Charter, i.e., the act to incorporate the City of Beacon, being Local Law No. 9-1989, adopted 11-7-1989, as amended.
The Administrator as authorized and appointed pursuant to the provisions of the Charter.
A written assertion of liability on the part of the City arising out of any act or omission on the part of its officers, agents or employees in the performance of their duties in acting with its authority or in the course of their employment or arising out of any contract, express or implied, made with its authority and in its behalf.[1]

Extends and shall be applied to associations, clubs, societies, firms, partnerships and bodies, politic and corporate, as well as to individuals.

Editor's Note: Original §§ 1-4, Amendments or additions to Code; 1-5, Effect of repeal of ordinances; and 1-6, Altering Code, all of which immediately followed this section, were deleted 3-16-1992 by L.L. No. 2-1992.
Whenever, in this Code or in any ordinance or resolution of the City, any act is prohibited or is made or declared to be unlawful or an offense or whenever, in such Code, ordinance or resolution, the doing of any act is required or the failure to do any act is declared to be unlawful, where no specific penalty is provided therefor, the violation of any such provision of this Code or any ordinance or resolution shall constitute a violation and shall be punished by a fine not exceeding $1,000 or by imprisonment not exceeding 15 days, or both. Each day any violation of any provision of this Code or of any such ordinance or resolution shall continue shall constitute a separate offense.
[Amended 4-3-2006 by L.L. No. 5-2006]
Where a violation of Chapter 119, Fire Prevention and Building Code, Uniform, Chapter 223, Zoning, or Chapter 135, Housing Standards, is found by a court of competent jurisdiction, the court must impose a fine of not less than $25 per day from the compliance date set forth in the Building Department's order to remedy.
In the event that an individual, partnership or corporation does not pay a fine duly imposed by a court pursuant to § 1-3A of the Code or an administrative penalty as authorized by the City Charter or Code of the City of Beacon by December 31 of the year said fine or penalty was imposed, then this amount shall be a lien on any premises owned by said individual, partnership or corporation for the following year and may be assessed against the same on the City tax roll.
[Added 12-19-1994]
In all cases where the same offense may be made punishable or shall be created by different clauses or sections of the ordinances of the City, the prosecuting officer may elect under which to proceed; but not more than one recovery shall be had against the same person for the same offense.
All ordinances passed by the City Council shall be recorded by the City Clerk in a proper book or books, with indexes, and filed with the Secretary of State of the State of New York in accordance with state law. The originals shall be filed in the City Clerk's office, and due proof of the publication of all ordinances requiring publication, by the certificate of the publisher or printer, shall be procured by the Clerk and attached thereto or written and attested upon the face of the record of such ordinance.
[Adopted 3-16-1992 by L.L. No. 2-1992]

A copy of the Charter and Code, in loose-leaf form, has been filed in the office of the Administrator of the City of Beacon and shall remain there for use and examination by the public until final action is taken on this local law; and, if this local law shall be adopted, such copy shall be certified to by the Administrator of the City of Beacon by impressing thereon the Seal of the City of Beacon, and such certified copy shall remain on file in the office of said Administrator to be made available to persons desiring to examine the same during all times while the said Code is in effect. The enactment and publication of this local law, coupled with the availability of a copy of the Charter and Code for inspection by the public, shall be deemed, held and considered to be due and legal publication of all provisions of the Charter and Code for all purposes.
Any and all additions, deletions, amendments or supplements to any of the local laws, ordinances and resolutions known collectively as the "Charter or Code of the City of Beacon," or any new local laws or resolutions, when enacted or adopted in such form as to indicate the intention of the Council to be a part thereof, shall be deemed to be incorporated into such Charter or Code so that reference to the Charter or Code shall be understood and intended to include such additions, deletions, amendments or supplements. Whenever such additions, deletions, amendments or supplements to the Charter or Code shall be enacted or adopted, they shall thereafter be printed and, as provided hereunder, inserted in the loose-leaf book containing said Charter or Code, as amendments and supplements thereto.

Copies of the Charter and Code may be purchased from the Administrator of the City of Beacon upon the payment of a fee to be set by resolution of the Council, which Council may also arrange by resolution for procedures for the periodic supplementation thereof.
Any person who, without authorization from the Administrator, changes or amends, by additions or deletions, any part or portion of the Charter or Code of the City of Beacon, or who alters or tampers with such Charter or Code in any manner whatsoever which will cause the legislation of the City of Beacon to be misrepresented thereby, or who violates any other provision of this local law, shall be guilty of an offense and shall, upon conviction thereof, be subject to a fine of not more than $250 or imprisonment for a term of not more than 15 days, or both.
Except where specifically provided elsewhere, any person who shall commit an offense against any provision of the Charter or Code of the City of Beacon shall, upon conviction thereof, be guilty of a violation pursuant to the Penal Law of the State of New York, punishable by a fine not exceeding $250 or by imprisonment for not exceeding 15 days, or by both such fine and imprisonment.
In compiling and preparing the local laws, ordinances and resolutions for publication as the Charter or Code of the City of Beacon, as distributed and designated in the table in § 1-7 hereof, no changes in the meaning or intent of such local laws, ordinances and resolutions have been made, except as provided for in Subsection B hereof. In addition, certain grammatical changes and other minor nonsubstantive changes were made in one or more of said pieces of legislation. It is the intention of the Council that all such changes be adopted as part of the Charter or Code as if the local laws, ordinances and resolutions had been previously formally amended to read as such.
In addition, the following changes, amendments or revisions are made herewith, to become effective upon the effective date of this local law. (Chapter and section number references are to the local laws, ordinances and resolutions as they have been renumbered and appear in the Charter or Code.)[1]
