§  1475-c. Syracuse parking authority. 1. A board to be known as "city   of Syracuse parking authority" is hereby created. Such board shall be  a   body  corporate,  constituting  a  public  benefit  corporation, and its   existence shall commence upon the appointment of the members as provided   in this section. It shall consist of a chair and four other members, who   shall be appointed by the mayor  of  the  city.  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 or her successor. Vacancies in such board occurring   otherwise  than  by  the  expiration  of  term  shall  be filled for the   unexpired term. The members of the board shall choose from their  number   a  vice  chair  and may choose a secretary and treasurer who need not be   members. The mayor may remove any member of the  board  for  neglect  of   duty  or  misconduct in office, giving such member a copy of the charges   against him or her and an opportunity of being heard in  person,  or  by   counsel,  in his or her defense upon not less than ten days' notice. 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. 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 have been met and its bonds have been paid in full   or such liabilities or bonds have otherwise been  discharged.  Upon  its   ceasing to exist, all its rights and properties shall pass to the city.2.  Notwithstanding any inconsistent provision of any general, special   or local law, ordinance, resolution or charter, no  officer,  member  or   employee  of  the  state or of any public authority shall forfeit his or   her office  or  employment  by  reason  of  his  or  her  acceptance  of   appointment as a member, officer or employee of the authority, nor shall   service as such member, officer or employee be deemed incompatible or in   conflict with such office, membership or employment.3. The mayor shall file on or before December thirty-first of the year   in  which  this  title  shall  have  become  a law, in the office of the   secretary of state, a certificate signed by the mayor setting forth: (a)   a name of the authority; (b) the names of the members appointed  by  the   mayor  and  their  terms  of  office; and (c) the effective date of this   title. If such certificate is not filed with the secretary of  state  on   or before such date, then the corporate existence of the authority shall   thereupon  terminate and it shall thereupon be deemed to be and shall be   dissolved.
