§ 6-608 When village may relinquish care of bridges. Any village
which has the supervision, control, care and maintenance of any bridge
or bridges wholly within its boundaries, or which has entered into an
agreement with a town as provided in sections 6-604 and 6-606 of this
chapter, may with the consent of the town board of the town within which
any such bridge is situated, by resolution of the board of trustees
subject to a permissive referendum as defined in this chapter, terminate
the right of such village to supervise, control, care for and maintain
such bridge or bridges, or cancel any such agreements made by it with
such superintendants of highways, and thereafter every public bridge
within the boundaries of said village shall be under the supervision,
control, care of and maintenance of the superintendants of highways of
the town as provided in section 6-602 of this chapter. Such action,
however, shall in no way cancel or interfere with the validity of any
obligation or indebtedness of the village incurred during the period
that the village exercised the supervision, control, care and
maintenance of such bridge or bridges, or during the period that said
agreement was operative.
