Animal Control All dogs are required to be licensed and identified. Procedures for licensing dogs are available from the Town in which you reside and not the Village. A county police officer, village code official or township animal control officer may issue a citation for any matter where a dog is being a nuisance or is unrestrained. However only an animal control officer from the respective township may impound and shelter a dog. A dog that barks or howls continuously outdoors for more than 15 minutes may constitute a violation of the Noise Code. Plastic bags with dog waste should not be tossed into storm water catch basins. Please dispose of all bagged waste in your own garbage receptacle. Storm Water Discharge The village has initiated a comprehensive storm water management plan in accordance with New York State guidelines. Although full implementation may take many years, current policies are summarized as follows: Storm water from roofs and impervious surfaces from new construction and additions on your property must be discharged on the same site into an underground system. The most common method used is a dry well. Village owned enclosed storm sewers and catch basins will be cleaned on a scheduled basis. Nassau County maintains their basins and sumps. Those areas served by open ditches and private roads are not maintained by the Village. Sediment run off from private property onto public streets or into public storm drains is prohibited. This type of run off can contribute to pollution of Hempstead Harbor and is a violation of Village, County and State laws. Roads There are, for maintenance purposes, different classes of roads as follows: Village Roads (maintained by the Village) Beech Street Church Street Club Court Dogwood Avenue Eden Way Engineers Road Fairway Court Fairway Road Harbor Court East Harbor Court West Harbor Lane Lorraine Court Mary Lane Montrose Drive Motts Cove Road North Motts Cove Road South Post Drive Shaun Ridge Spruce Street Summit Avenue Union Street (an unimproved way) Vine Street (from Walnut to Scudders) Private Roads (maintained by private property owners) Egil Court Montrose Court Murel Court Sierks Lane County Roads (maintained by Nassau County) Back Road Bryant Avenue Cody Avenue Glen Cove Avenue Glenwood Road Grove Street Scudders Lane State Road (maintained by New York State) Glen Cove Road The Town maintains the roads for Osborne Lane, Willow Place, Lloyd Street, West Street and Roosevelt Avenue.

It is the responsibility of the abutting property owner to maintain that area free of all litter and attractive nuisances and to keep the area unobstructed. Snow Removal and De-icing The Village stores its own de-icing material in bulk at a County Public Works Yard. A private contractor is selected, by bid, for plowing and spreading de-icing material on Village Roads only. The County, State and Township maintain their own roads. Private roads are maintained by the property owners. If you believe your property was damaged as a result of the plowing on a Village road, it should be reported immediately to Village Hall. The Village will examine the circumstances and convey the information directly to the contractor for a resolution. Swimming Pools A swimming pool is any structure containing an artificial body of water for swimming or recreational bathing, having a depth of two feet or more at any point. This includes above ground and in-ground pools, hot tubs and spas. The New York State Code covers the basic life safety regulations and inspections that are performed by the Village. The most common life safety issues that arise are the following: The perimeter of a pool must be screened with fencing a minimum of four feet in height. All fencing must be sufficiently smooth faced on the outside to avoid a toehold. Spacing at the bottom cannot exceed 2 inches. Spacing between vertical members cannot exceed 4 inches in width. The maximum mesh size for a chain link fence is 1.25 inches. Property line fences and walls, including the walls of a residence, are allowed under certain circumstances provided they meet code. An area containing a pool that is large enough to be used for other activities e.g. Children’s recreation area does require an interior separation as a safety barrier. All gates and doors that can lead to access of a pool must have self closing and self latching child proof devices. The Building Inspector may, under limited circumstances, allow for alternate devices that comply with the Code when implementing the above requirements are not possible.
