§ 85-340. Nonconforming hospital; amortization.

A. 

Anything to the contrary in this chapter notwithstanding, any nonconforming hospital, except not-for-profit, philanthropic or eleemosynary hospitals, wherever located, shall become an illegal hospital three years after the effective date of this article.

B. 

Any owner of any such nonconforming hospital who alleges that the period herein provided for amortization of such hospital is unreasonable may apply to the Town Board for an extension of time for amortization of such hospital, provided that such application is made within one year of the adoption of this article. If the Town Board finds that the construction and equipment cost of a particular hospital would not be reasonably amortized by the aforesaid date, then the Town Board may extend the amortization period to a date which it finds would provide a reasonable amortization period.
