    B. 
    Whenever any person or persons shall be in actual possession of or have charge, care or control of any property within the Village of Hewlett Harbor as executor, administrator, trustee, guardian, operator or agent, such person shall be deemed and taken to have the same responsibilities and obligations of the owner or owners of said property within the true intent and meaning of this chapter and shall be bound to comply with the provisions of this chapter to the same extent as the record owner, and notice to any such person or any order or decision of the Building Inspector shall be deemed and taken to be a good and sufficient notice, as if such person or persons were actually the record owner or owners of such property. In instances where an occupant is responsible or shares responsibility with the owner for the existence of one of more violations of this chapter, said occupant shall be deemed and taken to have the same responsibilities and obligations of an owner within the true intent and meaning of this chapter.
