§ 264. Method of procedure.
  The Town Board shall provide for the manner in which such regulations and restrictions and the boundaries of such districts shall be determined, established and enforced, and from time to time amended, supplemented or changed. However, no such regulation, restriction or boundary shall become effective until after a public hearing in relation thereto, at which parties in interest and citizens shall have an opportunity to be heard. At least 10 days' notice of the time and place of such hearing shall be published in a paper of general circulation in such Town, and a written notice of any proposed change or amendment affecting property within the protectively zoned area of a housing project authorized under the Public Housing Law, as such area is shown on an approved zoning map filed with the Town officer charged with enforcement of zoning regulations, or property within 500 feet of the boundaries of any city, village, town, county, state park or parkways, shall be given, in the case of a housing project, to the housing authority erecting or owning the project and to the government providing financial aid or assistance thereto, and in the case of any state park or parkway, to the Regional State Park Commission having jurisdiction over such state park or parkway, and in the case of a city, village or town, to the Clerk of such city, village or town, and in the case of a county, to the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors or other person performing like duties, at least 10 days prior to the date of such public hearing. Such city, village, town or county shall have the right to appear and to be heard at such public hearing with respect to any such proposed change or amendment, but shall not have the right of review by a court as hereinafter provided.
  Every zoning ordinance and every amendment to a zoning ordinance (excluding any map incorporated therein) adopted pursuant to the provision of this chapter shall be entered in the minutes of the Town Board. A notice setting forth the title and a brief description of every such ordinance and every amendment of such ordinance (exclusive of any map incorporated therein) shall be published once in a newspaper published in the Town, if any, or in such newspaper published in the county in which such Town may be located having a circulation in such Town, as the Town Board may designate, and affidavits of the publication of the notice as hereinabove provided shall be filed with the Town Clerk. Such ordinance shall take effect 10 days after such publication, but such ordinance or amendment shall take effect from the date of its service as against a person served personally with a copy thereof, certified by the Town Clerk under the Corporate Seal of the Town and showing the date of its passage and entry in the minutes.
