[Adopted 4-16-2013 by L.L. No. 2-2013]
An article to establish the residency requirements for the appointed
office of Deputy Highway Superintendent.
This article is adopted pursuant to Municipal Home Rule Law
§ 10, Subdivision 1(ii)a(1), that grants to local governments
the authority to enact local laws regarding the qualifications of
local officers. This article recognizes that the State Legislature
previously amended § 3 of the Public Officers Law, expanding
the residency requirements for any appointed public office, thereby
rendering Public Officers Law a special law with respect to any appointed
town officer [see cf N.Y. Op. Atty. Gen. (Inf.) No. 2000 -5]
This article shall supersede Town Law § 23, Subdivision
(1), in its application to the office of Deputy Highway Superintendent
for the Town of Parma.
The person holding the office of Deputy Highway Superintendent
in the Town of Parma need not be a resident nor an elector of the
Town of Parma; provided, however, that such person shall reside in
Monroe County.
