While only a few simple laws were necessary at the time of the establishment of the Town,subsequent growth of the community,together with the complexity of modern life, has created the need for new and more detailed legislation for the proper function and government of the Town. The recording of local law is an aspect of municipal history,and as the community develops and changes, review and revision of old laws and consideration of new Iaws, in the light of current trends, must keep pace. The orderly collection of these records is an important step in this ever-continuing process. Legislation must be more than mere chronological enactments reposing in the pages of old records. It must be available and IogicaIly arranged for convenient use and must be kept up-to-date. It was with thoughts such as these in mind that the Town Board ordered the following codification of the Town's legislation. Contents of Code The various chapters of the Code contain all currently effective legislation of a general and per- manent nature enacted by the Town Board of the Town of Ithaca, including revisions or amend- ments to existing legislation deemed necessary by the Town Board in the course of the codifica- tion. Division of Code The Code is divided into parts.Part I,Administrative Legislation, contains all Town legislation of an administrative nature, namely, that dealing with the administration of government, that estab- lishing or regulating municipal departments and that affecting officers and employees of the mu- nicipal government and its departments. Part Il, General Legislation,contains all other Town leg- islation of a regulatory nature. Items of legislation in this part generally impose penalties for'vio- lation of their provisions,whereas those in Part I do not. Table of Contents and Grouping of Legislation The Table of Contents details the arrangement of material alphabetically by chapter as a means of identifying specific areas of legislation. Wherever two or more items of legislation have been combined by the editor into a single chapter, the use of article designations has preserved the identity of the individual enactments, and the titles of the articles are listed beneath the chapter title in order to facilitate location of the individual enactments. Reserved Chapters Unassigned chapter numbers do not appear in the Table of Contents but are available for assign- ment to new enactments.In this manner,new subject matter can be included alphabetically. 1 03-01-20I3 ITHACA CODE r i Pagination A unique page-numbering system has been used in which each chapter forms an autonomous unit. The first page of each chapter is the number of that chapter followed by a colon and the nu- meral "1." Thus,Chapter 6 would begin on page 6:1.By use of this system, it is possible to add or to change pages in any chapter, or add new chapters, without affecting the sequence of subse- quent pages. Numbering of Sections A chapter-related section-numbering system is employed in which the section number indicates the number of the chapter and the Iocation of the section within that chapter. Thus, the first sec- tion of Chapter 30 would be § 30-1,while the sixth section of Chapter 57 would be § 57-6. Scheme The scheme is the list of section titles that precedes the text of each chapter. These titles are care- fully written so that, taken together, they may be considered as a summary of the content of the chapter. Taken separately, each describes the content of a particular section. For ease and preci- sion of reference,the scheme titles are repeated as section headings in the text. Histories O ` At the end of the Scheme(list of section titles) in each chapter is located the legislative history for that chapter. This History indicates the specific legislative source from which the chapter was derived, including the enactment number(e.g., ordinance number, local law number, bylaw num- ber, resolution number, etc.), if pertinent, and the date of adoption. In the case of chapters con- taining parts or articles derived from more than one item of legislation,the source of each part or article is indicated in the text, under its title. Amendments to individual sections or subsections are indicated by histories where appropriate in the text. General References; Editor's Notes In each chapter containing material related to other chapters in the Code, a table of General Ref- erences is included to direct the reader's attention to such related chapters. Editor's Notes are used in the text to provide supplementary information and cross-references to related provisions in other chapters. Appendix Certain forms of local legislation are not of a nature suitable for inclusion in the main body of the Code but are of such significance that their application is community-wide or their provisions are germane to the conduct of municipal government. The Appendix of this publication is reserved for such legislation and for any other material that the community may wish to include. lI 03-01-2013 . PREFACE Disposition List The Disposition List is a chronological listing of legislation, indicating its inclusion in the publi- cation or the reason for its exclusion. The Disposition List will be updated with each supplement to the Code to include the legislation reviewed with said supplement. Index The Index is a guide to information. Since it is likely that this publication will be used by persons without formal legal training, the Index has been formulated to enable such persons to locate a particular section quickly. Each section of each chapter has been indexed. The Index will be sup- plemented and revised from time to time as new legislation is added. Instructions for Amending the Code All changes to the Code, whether they are amendments, deletions or additions, should be adopted as amendments to the Code. In doing so, existing material that is not being substantively altered should not be renumbered. Adding new sections. Where new sections are to be added to a chapter, they can be added at the end of the existing material (continuing the numbering sequence) or inserted between existing sections as decimal numbers (e.g., a new section between §§ 65-5 and 65-6 should be designated § 65-5.1). Adding new chapters.New chapters should be added in the proper alphabetical sequence in the appropriate division or part (e.g., Part I, Administrative Legislation, or Part II, General Legisla- tion), utilizing the reserved chapter numbers. New chapter titles should begin with the key word for the alphabetical listing(e.g.,new legislation on abandoned vehicles should be titled "Vehicles, Abandoned" under "V" in the Table of Contents, and a new enactment on coin-operated amuse- ment devices should be "Amusement Devices" or "Amusement Devices, Coin-Operated" under "A" in the Table of Contents). Where a reserved number is not available, an "A" chapter should be used (e.g., a new chapter to be included between Chapters 166 and 167 should be designated Chapter I66A). Adding new articles. New articles may be inserted between existing articles in a chapter (e.g., adding a new district to the Zoning Regulations) by the use of"A" articles (e.g., a new article to be included between Articles XVI and XVII should be designated Article XVIA). The section numbers would be as indicated above (e.g., if the new Article XVIA contains six sections and existing Article XVI ends with § 166-30 and Article XVII begins with § 166-31, Article XVIA should contain §§ 166-30.1 through 166-30.6). Supplementation Supplementation of the Code will follow the adoption of new legislation. New legislation or amendments to existing legislation will be included and repeals will be indicated as soon as pos- 111 03-01-2013 ITHACA CODE r sible after passage. Supplemental pages should be inserted as soon as they are received and old pages removed, in accordance with the Instruction Page which accompanies each supplement. Acknowledgment The assistance of the Town officials, particularly Town CIerk Tee-Ann Hunter, is gratefully acknowledged by the editor. The codification of the legislation of the Town of Ithaca reflects an appreciation of the needs of a progressive and expanding community. As in many other munici- palities, officials are faced with fundamental changes involving nearly every facet of community life.Problems increase in number and complexity and range in importance from everyday details to crucial areas of civic planning. It is the profound conviction of General Code that this publica- tion will contribute significantly to the efficient administration of local government. As Samuel Johnson observed, "The law is the last result of human wisdom acting upon human experience for the benefit of the public."

[HISTORY: Adopted by the Town Board of the Town of Ithaca 3-11-2013 by L.L. No. 3-2013. Amendments noted where applicable.] § 57-1. Authority and purpose. New York General Municipal Law § 103(1) allows the Town to authorize, by local Jaw, the award of certain purchase contracts (including contracts for services) subject to competitive bidding under General Municipal Law § 103 on the basis of"best value" as defined in § 163 of the New York State Finance Law. The "best value" option may be used, for example, if it is more cost efficient over time to award the good or service to other than the lowest responsible bidder or offerer if factors such as lower cost of maintenance, durability, higher quality and Ionger product life can be documented. ' § 57-2. Award based on best value. The Town Board may award purchase contracts, including contracts for services, on the basis of "best value," as that term is defined in New York State Finance Law § 163. All awards based on best value shall require Town Board approval. §57-3. Applicability. The provisions of this chapter apply to Town purchase contracts, including contracts for services, involving an expenditure of more than $20,000, but excluding purchase contracts necessary for the completion of a public works contract pursuant to Article 8 of the New York Labor Law and any other contract that may in the future be excluded under state law from the best value option. If the dollar thresholds of New York General Municipal Law § 103 are increased or decreased in the future by the State Legislature, the dollar thresholds set forth herein shall be deemed simultaneously amended to match the new General Municipal Law thresholds. § 57-4. Standards for best value. Goods and services procured and awarded on the basis of best value are those that the Town Board determines optimize quality, cost and efficiency, among responsive and responsible bidder or offerers. Where possible, the determination shall be based on an objective and quantifiable analysis of clearly described and documented criteria as they apply to the rating 57:1 03-01-2013 § 57-4 ITHACA CODE § 57-6 of bids or offers. The criteria may include, but shall not be limited to, any or aII of the r� following: cost of maintenance; proximity to the end user if distance or response time is a ? significant term; durability; availability of replacement parts or maintenance contractors; longer product Iife; product performance criteria; and quality of craftsmanship. § 57-5. Documentation. Whenever any contract is awarded on the basis of best value instead of lowest responsible bidder, the basis for determining best value shall be thoroughly and accurately documented. § 57-6. Procurement policy superseded where inconsistent. Any inconsistent provision of the Town's procurement policy, as adopted prior to the effective date of this chapter by resolution of the Town Board, or as amended thereafter, shall be deemed superseded by the provisions of this chapter. 57:2 03-01-2013 § 221-5 SIGNS § 221-6 (d) Neighborhood identification signs, not to exceed six square feet in size.

The permittee shall be responsible for assuring that the high-frequency, high-impact truck traffic does not prevent any impacted Town road from remaining in a safe and usable condition for all legal uses of the road throughout the duration of the project. If the permittee fails to meet this obligation, the Town may utilize bond funds to assure impacted Town roads remain in a safe and usable condition for all legal uses of the road throughout the duration of the project. K. Upon completion of the high-frequency, high-impact truck traffic project, the permittec will apply to the Highway Superintendent for a bond release. Upon inspection of the traveled roads, as necessary, the Highway Superintendent may approve the release of the bond. If the release is not approved, the Highway Superintendent will specifically document the tasks that must be accomplished in order for the bond to be released, which may include, but not be limited to, the payment of money for the repair to damaged roads based upon then-current roadway construction costs. The permittee must remedy all of the specified problems before the bond may be released. If the permittee fails to remedy all of the specified problems, the Town may utilize the bond funds to do so. The Highway Superintendent shall use the latest design standards of the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials to determine what repairs need to be completed on the traveled roads to remediate any road deterioration attributable to the permittee's high-frequency, high-impact truck traffic. L. If the permittee does not comply with this article and all the terms and conditions of the permit and does not operate within the parameters specified on the permit, the permit may be revoked at the discretion of the Highway Superintendent. In the event that high-frequency, high-impact truck traffic uses any Town roads without the required valid permit, the Highway Superintendent, or any Iaw enforcement officer or Code Enforcement Officer, has the authority to deny access to the roads and, in cases where a Town permit was required, to shut down the project. This relief is in addition to any and all damages and penalties. M. The permittee will be responsible for the repair of any damages that occur to any Town road when a project proceeds with or without a proper permit, as well as for all fines and penalties specified in this article. i 230:20 06-01-2013 § 230-14 STREETS AND SIDEWALKS § 230-15 r ` N. In lieu of obtaining a permit, any person who may be responsible to obtain a permit may enter into a road use agreement with the Town, although the Town has no obligation to enter into such an agreement. In such case, the requirements shall be governed by the agreement, rather than by permit conditions. The terms of the road use agreement shall be negotiated between the permittee and the Highway Superintendent, shall address issues relating to insurance, bonds, routes, schedules, inspections, road surveys, indemnification and road repairs, as well as such other issues as the Highway Superintendent may identify, and must be approved by the Town Board before it becomes effective. § 230-15. Penalties for offenses. A. Any person who violates this article shall be guilty of a violation and subject to a fine of not more than $500 and/or imprisonment for not more than 15 days. Each and every act committed that is prohibited by this article shall constitute a separate violation. Each time a vehicle travels on a Town road without a permit as required by this article shall constitute a separate violation. Any police officer, peace officer, Town Code Enforcement Officer, the Highway Superintendent, or any other person who may be lawfully designated by the Town Board shall have the authority to issue appearance tickets in connection with such violations. Violations may be prosecuted by the Attorney for the Town or any other person with authority to prosecute violations within the Town. B. In addition, any person who violates this article shall be liable for a civil penalty of$500 for a first violation and $1,000 for a second or subsequent violation which was committed within a period of five years from the commission of the prior violation. The Attorney for the Town or his or her designee may commence an action or special proceeding against the violator in a court of competent jurisdiction to collect these penalties, together with costs, disbursements and recoverable attorneys' fees, and/or to compel compliance with this chapter or restrain by injunction any such violation. C. Upon failure of any permittee to comply with the requirements of this article, the permit shall be subject to suspension, revocation or to the imposition of additional conditions. 230:21 015-01-2013 Chapter 234 SUBDIVISION OF LAND ARTICLE I ARTICLE IV Introduction and Administration Reservation Requirements and Subdivision Design Standards § 234-1.
