Gazebo built on a deck near a dock prior to my purchasing the property (2021). Town has now issued me a summons saying no permits were applied for prior to the Gazebo being built (around 2013).  I showed proof that the Gazebo was there before I bought my home, but they want me to prove it was built prior to their regulations (wouldn't they know when regulations went into effect?).  I have been through all town codes and can not find anything regarding this ordinance .  Any suggestions?  Thank you for your time
