§  280.  Establishment  or extension of residential or residential and   recreational areas in the Lake George park. 1.  The  legislature  hereby   declares  that  the preservation, protection, development and proper use   of real property in the Lake George park is a matter of interest to  all   the  people of the state and that it is, accordingly, necessary to enact   this article as a means of providing for such preservation,  protection,   development and use.2.  For  the purposes described in subdivision one of this section and   for the further purposes of preserving and  developing  the  residential   and  recreational  facilities of the state for the benefit of the public   and promoting the health, safety,  morals  or  general  welfare  of  the   community,  the  village  board  of any village or the town board of any   town lying wholly or partly within the Lake George park, upon a petition   as hereinafter provided,  is  hereby  empowered  to  establish  in  such   village  or  town  by  ordinance  or  local  law,  a  residential  or  a   residential and recreational area consisting of any area of land therein   including at least forty acres and lying within the Lake George park, or   to extend such an area once established, which has not  been  previously   restricted  to residential or residential and recreational purposes by a   zoning ordinance or local law enacted pursuant to article seven  of  the   village  law  or article sixteen of the town law.  Such board is further   empowered to prohibit, restrict, regulate and control by such  ordinance   or  local  law, and such ordinances or local laws as thereafter amended,   the use of all buildings, structures and land within such  an  area  for   any  industrial  or commercial purpose and to limit by such ordinance or   local law, and such ordinance or local law as  thereafter  amended,  the   use of all buildings, structures and land within such an area to use for   one  or two family residential purposes, or to use for one or two family   residential and non-profit recreational purposes. Any such ordinance  or   local  law  shall  not apply to a non-conforming use in existence at the   time of the effective date of any such ordinance or local law. Any  such   ordinance  or  local  law  may  provide  that  a violation thereof is an   offense punishable by a fine  not  to  exceed  one  hundred  dollars  or   imprisonment  for  not  to  exceed  sixty  days,  or both, and that each   calendar  week's  continued  violation  shall  constitute   a   separate   additional  violation.  In the event that a provision of an ordinance or   local law adopted pursuant to this article conflicts with a provision of   a zoning ordinance or local law subsequently adopted pursuant to article   seven of the village law  or  article  sixteen  of  the  town  law,  the   provision  of  the zoning ordinance or local law so subsequently adopted   shall govern.
