The Town Board of the Town of Southampton recognizes that the Constitution of the State of New York and the Municipal Home Rule Law of the State of New York afford towns the ability to structure their local governments as needed to promote the efficiency of town operations. The Municipal Home Rule Law specifically authorizes a town to create or discontinue departments; to prescribe or modify the powers and duties of such departments; and to specify the powers, duties, qualifications, number and mode of selection of its officers and employees. The Town Board accordingly intends to exercise those powers to hereby constitute the Southampton Police Department as a Department of Town government.
