[HISTORY: Adopted by the Town Board of the Town of Glenville 12-18-2013 by L.L. No.
9-2013.[1] Amendments noted where applicable.]

Editor's Note: This local law was originally adopted
as Chapter 6 but was renumbered to maintain the alphabetical organization
of the Code.
The elective office of Town of Glenville Supervisor shall be
considered a full-time position.
The salary of the elected, full-time Supervisor for calendar
year 2014 shall be fixed in the amount of $83,000 and thereafter shall
be established by the Town Board in the annual budget process.
The administration of municipal government in New York State
has become increasingly more complex due to changes in law, rules
and regulations at the federal and state levels. In recognition of
these factors, the Town has experimented with a full-time Administrator
and a full-time Director of Operations, each of whom were delegated
administrative duties of the part-time Supervisor and acted on his
behalf, at his direction. It is the sense of the Town Board that a
full-time, elected Supervisor would be more directly responsive to
the people and the Town Board. In addition, the Town of Glenville
has seen a period of strong growth and development, making the full-time
leadership of the Supervisor more imperative. It is further the sense
of the Town Board that savings in salaries and benefits would result
from this more efficient form of government.
This chapter is adopted pursuant to the authority granted by
the Municipal Home Rule Law and shall supersede any provision of Town
law which is inconsistent herewith.
Pursuant to § 27, Subdivision 1, and § 24,
Subdivision 2, of the Municipal Home Rule Law, this chapter shall
be subject to a permissive referendum; such referendum shall be held
at a special election no sooner than 60 days after submission of a
valid petition to the Town Clerk and the determination of validity
by the Town Clerk if a valid petition is filed with the Town Clerk
within 45 days after adoption of this chapter by the Town Board.[1]

Editor's Note: No valid petition requesting such referendum
was filed as of 2-3-2014.
