N.Y. Village Law § 6-604: Care of bridges

§ 6-604 Care of bridges. If the board of trustees of a village has the

supervision and control of a bridge therein, it shall continue to

exercise such control under this chapter. In any other case, every

public bridge within a village shall be under the control of the

superintendants of highways of the town in which the bridge is wholly or

partly situated, or such other officer as may be designated by special

law, and the expense of constructing and repairing such bridge and the

approaches thereto is a town charge, unless the village assumes the

whole or part of such expense.
