§  341. County or part-county health districts; local health districts   within; villages in two counties.  1. Local health districts within  the   area  of  any  county  or  part-county health district shall continue to   exist as subdivisions of such health district, and the local  boards  of   health  shall  continue  to  exist and to retain their powers and duties   subject to the rulings and regulations of the board  of  health  of  the   county or part-county health district, and may continue to appoint local   health officers for such local health districts as provided by law.2.  If  a  county  or  part-county  health  district  as heretofore or   hereafter established by a board  of  supervisors  shall  by  its  terms   contain  a  portion  of any village which lies partly within said county   and partly within some other county, said  village,  without  regard  to   population,  shall  continue its local district organization in the same   manner as before, in which case the health officer of the village acting   within the county or part-county health district shall be  a  deputy  of   the  county  health commissioner with reference to acts performed within   said county or part-county  health  district.  Provided,  however,  said   village  may, by resolution of the village board, limit the local health   district to that portion of the village lying in the county  outside  of   the   county   or  part-county  health  district,  in  which  event  the   compensation of the local health officer shall be based upon the  number   of inhabitants in the reduced village health district, and the residents   of  that  portion  of the village lying within the county or part-county   health district shall not be taxed by the village for the maintenance of   such reduced local health district.3. The governing authorities of any  city,  village  or  town  or  the   governing  authorities  of  the  cities,  villages  or  towns  within  a   consolidated health district may abolish such  city,  village,  town  or   consolidated  health  district as a local health district, whereupon all   the powers and duties of the local board of health of such local  health   district  shall  devolve  upon  the  board  of  health  of the county or   part-county health district and all the powers and duties of  the  local   health  officer  of  such  local  health district shall devolve upon the   county health commissioner.4. The governing authorities of a town or village, the local board  of   health  of  which  has been abolished pursuant to the provisions of this   section, when authorized by a proposition submitted and adopted  in  the   manner  provided  by  law,  may  employ  a public health nurse or public   health nurses, qualified as provided in the sanitary code, and make  the   necessary  appropriation  therefor. Such public health nurse, or nurses,   shall work under the direction of the county health commissioner.5. Where the local health district within the area of  any  county  or   part  county  health  district  is a town in which there are one or more   incorporated villages and the local board of health  is  a  town  board,   appropriations  made  by  the  town  board  for  the  purposes stated in   subdivisions one and four of this section shall be  a  charge  upon  the   taxable  property  of  that part of the town outside of any incorporated   village.If a proposition is submitted as provided in subdivision four of  this   section  for  the  employment of public health nurses in a town in which   there  are  incorporated  villages  which  constitute  a  local   health   district,  only  such  persons  who are electors and owners of record of   property in the town outside of incorporated villages shall be  entitled   to vote upon such a proposition.
