§ 190-10.1 Conflicts.
In interpreting and applying the provisions of this chapter, they shall be held to be minimum requirements for the promotion of the public safety, health, convenience, comfort, prosperity, or general welfare. It is not intended by this chapter to interfere with or abrogate or annul any easements, covenants, or other agreement between parties; provided, however, that where this chapter imposes a greater restriction or higher standard upon the use of a building or premises or upon heights of buildings, or requires larger streets or open spaces than are imposed or required by other ordinances, regulations or statutes, or by easements, covenants, or agreements, the provisions of this chapter shall govern.
§ 190-10.2 Severability.
[Amended 3-8-2022 by Art. 3; 3-14-2023 by Art. 3 (Am 10)]
Should any part of this chapter be held to be invalid or unconstitutional by any court or authority of competent jurisdiction, such holding shall not affect, impair or invalidate any other section or provision of this chapter, and to such end all sections and provisions of this chapter are declared to be severable.
§ 190-10.3 When effective.
This chapter shall take effect upon its passage and shall thereupon supersede all prior zoning ordinances of the Town of Rye.
