* §  1599-c.  Schenectady parking authority. 1. A board to be known as   "Schenectady Parking Authority" is hereby created. Such board shall be a   body corporate and politic, constituting a public  benefit  corporation,   and  its existence shall commence upon the appointment of the members as   herein provided. It shall consist of a chairman and four other  members,   who  shall be appointed by the mayor, with the advice and consent of the   city council. Of the members first appointed, one shall be appointed for   a period of one year, one for a period of two years, one for a period of   three years, one for a period of four years, and one  for  a  period  of   five  years.  At  the  expiration  of such terms, the terms of office of   their successors shall be five years.  Each  member  shall  continue  to   serve until the appointment and qualification of his successor. A member   may  be  removed  at  will  by  the  mayor with the approval of the city   council, giving him a copy of the charges against him and an opportunity   of being heard in person, or by counsel, in his defense  upon  not  less   than  ten day's notice. Vacancies in such board occurring otherwise than   by the expiration of term shall be filled for the unexpired term by  the   mayor,  with  the advice and consent of the city council. The members of   the board shall choose from their number a vice-chairman and such  other   officers  deemed  desirable by the board. The members of the board shall   be entitled to no compensation for their services but shall be  entitled   to reimbursement for their actual and necessary expenses incurred in the   performance  of their official duties. The powers of the authority shall   be vested in and exercised by a majority of the  members  of  the  board   then in office. Such board may delegate to one or more of its members or   to  its  officers, agents and employees such powers and duties as it may   deem proper. Such board and its corporate existence shall continue  only   for  a period of fifteen years, and thereafter until all its liabilities   and duties have been met, and its bonds have been paid in full  or  such   liabilities and duties or bonds have otherwise been discharged. Upon its   ceasing to exist, all its rights and properties shall pass to the city.2.  No  public officer or employee shall be ineligible for appointment   as a member or officer of  the  authority  and  any  public  officer  or   employee  may  accept  such appointment and serve as a member or officer   without forfeiture of any other public  office  or  position  of  public   employment by reason thereof. Any one or more members or officers of the   authority  may  be an officer or employee of the city. In the event that   an officer or employee of the city shall be appointed  as  a  member  or   officer  of  the  authority, acceptance or retention of such appointment   shall not be deemed a forfeiture of his city office  or  employment,  or   incompatible therewith or affect his tenure or compensation in any way.3.  It  is  hereby  determined and declared that the authority and the   carrying out of its powers, purposes and duties are in all respects  for   the  benefit  of  the people of the city of Schenectady and the state of   New York, and that said  purposes  are  public  purposes  and  that  the   authority  is  and will be performing an essential governmental function   in the exercise of the powers conferred upon it by this title.* NB Authority ceased to exist 08/05/2002* NB There are 4 § 1599-c's
