The dock areas at the Village Park, on the south side of the
Erie Canal west of Union Street and east of Union Street in front
of, and running east and west, of the Spencerport Depot & Canal
Museum, are reserved for transient boat usage not to exceed 48 hours.
No boat may tie up to the docks for any time exceeding 48 consecutive
hours in any seven-day period and any time exceeding two periods of
48 consecutive hours during any thirty-day period. For the purposes
of this chapter, if a boat is away from a dock for three or fewer
hours and then returns, the computation of the consecutive period
will not be considered to be broken. For the purpose of this chapter,
both of the docks shall be considered as one when computing the times.
Any person violating any of the provisions of this chapter shall
be liable and forfeit and pay a penalty of not exceeding $250 or be
imprisoned for a period of time not exceeding 15 days, or both.

B.
If a person charged with the violation admits to the violation as
charged in the appearance ticket, such person may complete the answer
form hereby authorized by this section and forward such form and appearance
ticket to the office specified on such appearance ticket.
C.
If the person charged with the violation denies part or all of the
violation as charged in the appearance ticket, such person may complete
the form likewise prescribed for that purpose and forward such form
and appearance ticket to the office specified on such appearance ticket.
Upon receipt, such answer shall be entered and a new return date established
by said office. Such person shall be notified by return mail of the
date and place of such return date. If a person shall fail to appear
at a return date when such is provided for pursuant to this section,
a summons or a warrant of arrest may be issued pursuant to the Criminal
Procedure Law.
