Each owner of property in the Village of Hewlett Neck
shall maintain and care for or replace any shrubs or plantings in the area
of a public right-of-way adjoining such property and located between such
owner's property and the paved area of any public street or road in such
adjoining right-of-way.

Without prior permission of the Village of Hewlett Neck,
no person shall erect or place any fixtures, structures or materials in the
area of a public right-of-way located between the area of any public street
or road and the boundary of any adjoining property.
C.
Where the Board of Trustees has reason to believe that
any person has violated any provision of this section, the Board of Trustees
may give written notice to such person, in such manner as may be determined
by the Board of Trustees, to appear before the Board of Trustees to be heard
in connection with such matter and with respect to any remedies which the
Board of Trustees may elect pursuant to this section. After such appearance,
the Board of Trustees may determine that such person is in violation of a
provision of this section and may require such person to take such action
as may be determined by the Board of Trustees to be appropriate to remedy
said violation. If such person fails to complete such action within the time
specified therefor by the Board of Trustees, the Board of Trustees may direct
that the Village perform such action and that the cost of such performance
shall be reimbursed to the Village by each such person, together with the
costs incurred by the Village, including legal expenses, for collection of
such reimbursement. If any such person is an owner of real property in the
Village, the amount of such reimbursement shall be assessed against such real
property and collected in the same manner as provided for assessment and collection
of taxes on real property. The remedies provided in this subsection shall
be in addition to any other penalties which may be applicable by law for any
violation of this section.
