When used in this local law:

MEAN LOW-WATER LINE
Definitions.
Includes one (1) or more individuals, partnerships, associations,
corporations, legal representatives and successors.
Includes a structure of any kind of material constructed along the
"water line" or in the water as a retaining wall between the water and the
uplands and includes all such structures and any parts thereof used to moor
boats or ships of any kind and which are commonly known as piers or docks.
Is that level represented by the uppermost part of the ground or
structure in the water, wholly saturated with water.
Is the average height of the water at all low tides at a given place
during the calendar year.
B.
Usage. The plural shall include the singular, and vice
versa, and the term "shall" is mandatory.
A.
All persons who own real property in the Town of Islip
who have on their property in the Town of Islip one (1) or more bulkheads
of any description or condition shall place and maintain on the water side
of each said bulkhead, at intervals of every one hundred (100) feet, a wooden
or metal ladder of substantial construction sufficient to support an adult
human being, with rungs not more than sixteen (16) inches apart extending
from two (2) feet below the mean low-water line at the bulkhead to the top
of said bulkhead.
B.
At least one (1) such ladder shall be placed and maintained
on every bulkhead, pier or dock existing or to be constructed on each separately
owned parcel of real property in the Town of Islip, notwithstanding the fact
the bulkhead may measure less than one hundred (100) feet from end to end.
This local law shall not apply to a bulkhead when the water line at
the bulkhead and at every point parallel to the bulkhead for a distance of
six (6) feet from the bulkhead measures two (2) feet or less at mean low water.
This local law shall take effect immediately and all affected parties
are given sixty (60) days to comply therewith.
Any person who shall violate any of the provisions of this local law
or fail to comply therewith or any of the requirements thereof shall be guilty
of an offense which shall be punishable by a fine not exceeding fifty dollars
($50.), and each week's continued violation shall constitute a separate
additional offense.
