This article is intended to modify the provisions of § 23 of the Town Law and § 3 of the Public Officers Law or any other provision of law requiring a person to be a resident of a political subdivision or municipal corporation of the state for which he or she shall be chosen or within which his or her official functions are required to be exercised so that the duly appointed Code Enforcement/Zoning Officer of the Town of Jerusalem may reside in any Town in Yates County or in any county adjacent to Yates County.
