[HISTORY: Adopted by the Board of Trustees of the Village
of West Hampton Dunes 5-17-2013 by L.L. No. 4-2013. Amendments noted where
applicable.]
The purpose and intent of this chapter is to establish an Erosion
Control and Shoreline Stabilization Improvement and Assessment District
in the Village of West Hampton Dunes. The district shall include all
nonresidential properties in the Village of West Hampton Dunes and
all residential properties that are being used for a nonresidential
purpose and is intended to provide a means by which the Village of
West Hampton Dunes can set a Village assessment on the properties
that are included in the district to provide for improvements which
benefit the properties that are located in the district for public
expenditures for improvements that directly benefit the properties
that are located in the district.
The Board of Trustees of the Village of West Hampton Dunes after
a review of available information and due deliberation hereby finds
as follows:
A.
The properties that are located in the district of the Village of
West Hampton Dunes require improvements and expenditures for erosion
control and shoreline stabilization.
B.
The Village of West Hampton Dunes recognizes that the public services
are necessary and must be provided for properties that are located
in the erosion control and shoreline stabilization district, and that
those public services require significant expenditures that are of
a different nature and a significantly higher cost than the services
and improvements that are required for the other properties in the
Village.
C.
That it is proper and lawful for the Village of West Hampton Dunes
to render a separate assessment to the properties located inside of
the erosion control and shoreline stabilization district because those
properties are directly benefitted by the expenditures that are made
to the properties in that district.
There shall be created in the Village of West Hampton Dunes
an Erosion Control and Shoreline Stabilization Assessment and Improvement
District. The district shall include the following properties in the
Village of West Hampton Dunes:
