[HISTORY: Adopted by the Board of Trustees of the Village
of Huntington Bay 4-27-2015 by L.L. No. 1-2015. Amendments noted where applicable.]
The purpose of this chapter is to promote the public health,
safety and welfare of the Village of Huntington Bay, including the
protection and preservation of the property of the Village and its
inhabitants, by establishment of a procedure whereby the efficient
and prudent administration of the municipal affairs is promoted through
the establishment and fixing of annual compensation for elected officials
of the Village of Huntington Bay.
It is the finding of the Board of Trustees of the Village of
Huntington Bay that the executive, legislative, policy and fiduciary
responsibilities associated with the positions of Mayor and trustee
have increased significantly over the past several years as the operations
of the Village of Huntington Bay have become more complex. In order
to fulfill their duties, the Mayor and the members of the Board of
Trustees find that they each must now dedicate a greater amount of
time on a daily basis to a variety of matters that are necessary for
the Village to function properly and efficiently. Accordingly, the
Board of Trustees finds that it is in the best interests of the Village
and its residents that persons serving in the positions of mayor and
trustee shall be entitled to annual compensation in the amounts set
forth herein.
