[Adopted 5-17-2012 by L.L. No. 3-2012]
The provisions of §§ 20, 23, 34 and 124 of the
Town Law and § 3 of the Public Officers Law and any other
provisional law requiring a person to be a resident or elector of
a political subdivision or a 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 are waived to the extent that
such provisions shall not prevent a person from holding the office
of Comptroller, provided that such person is a resident of the County
of Dutchess or a resident of a county adjacent to the County of Dutchess
and so long as all other qualifications contained in §§ 20,
23, 34 and 124 of the Town Law and § 3 of the Public Officers
Law are satisfied by the appointee of such office. This local law
is enacted pursuant to the provisions of Municipal Home Rule Law § 10,
Subdivision 1, Paragraphs (ii)d(3), (ii)a(12) and (ii)a(14), and does
supersede any provisions of §§ 20, 23, 34 and 124 of
the Town Law and § 3 of the Public Officers Law and any
other law inconsistent with the provisions hereof.
The Comptroller shall be compensated by a fixed salary.
