No civil action shall be maintained against the Village of North Syracuse
for damages or injuries to persons or property sustained in consequence
of any defective, unsafe, dangerous or obstructed condition or for damages
or injuries to persons or property solely in consequence of the existence
of ice or snow on any real property or personal property located thereon,
when such real or personal property is owned or leased by the Village of North
Syracuse, unless written notice of the defective, unsafe, dangerous or obstructed
condition or of the existence of the snow or ice, which written notice relates
to a particular place or thing, was actually given to the Village Clerk and
there was a failure or neglect within a reasonable time after receipt of such
notice to repair or remove the defect, danger or obstruction complained of
or to cause the snow or ice to be removed or the place or thing to be otherwise
made reasonably safe.
It is the Village's intent that this chapter shall be in addition to
and not in lieu of the provisions of Village Law § 6-628 and Civil
Practice Law and Rules § 9804 and shall supersede those statutes
or any other statute of the Village or state only to the extent that this
chapter is consistent therewith.
