This chapter shall be known and may be cited as "Local Law No. 4 of the Year 1977, Changing the Terms of Office of the Members of the Town of Greece Planning Board."
The Town Board of the Town of Greece, through the power granted to it under the appropriate provisions of the Town Law, has created a Planning Board and has appointed members to said Board. The Planning Board will consist of seven members. The Planning Board has been given certain powers such as site plan review, adding or changing the Official Map of the Town, approval of plats, granting of special permits in specific instances and changes in the zoning conditions as part of plat approval. In order to provide the people of the Town of Greece a more frequent opportunity to serve on such an important Board in the Town of Greece, which Board affects the lives and property of many residents, the Town Board has determined to exercise the authority given to it under the Laws of the State of New York to amend the Town Law to reduce the duration of the terms during which a Planning Board member holds office.
A person appointed to the Planning Board of the Town of Greece by the Town Board of the Town of Greece, pursuant to the authority granted the Town Board under § 271 of the Town Law.
The period of time a member of the Planning Board, appointed by the Town Board, shall hold office.
Any person appointed as a member of the Planning Board by the Town Board of the Town of Greece after the effective date of this chapter shall serve for a term of three years from the date of appointment. If a vacancy shall occur other than by expiration of term, it shall be filled by the Town Board by appointment for the unexpired term.
This chapter shall amend § 271 of the Town Law as it applies to the Town of Greece, pursuant to the authority granted the Town Board of the Town of Greece by the laws of the State of New York, including § 10 of the Municipal Home Rule Law.
