§  2-218  Registration list of voters. 1. Preparation. It shall be the
  duty of the clerk of each town in which a portion of such  territory  is
  located  to  make  and file in their office, at least twenty days before
  such election an accurate list of voters, alphabetically  arranged,  who
  are  qualified  to vote at such election. Such list shall be copied from
  the registration poll records for the last preceding  general  election,
  and  shall  be modified in accordance with whatever information the town
  clerk may have or receive from the board of elections.
2. Inspection of and additions to registration list.  At  least  three
  days  prior  to  such election and not on a Sunday the registration list
  for such election shall be open for inspection  by  the  public  in  the
  office  of  the  town  clerk  preparing same between the hours of twelve
  o'clock noon and nine o'clock in the evening where and when  any  person
  claiming  to  be  qualified  to  vote at such election whose name is not
  included in the registration list of voters therefor may apply  to  such
  clerk for a revision of such list to include his or her name. The clerk,
  upon  presentation  of proper proofs showing that such person is or will
  at the time of such election be qualified to vote for town  officers  of
  such  town  as  a  resident of such territory, shall revise such list to
  include the name of such person.
3. Notice of availability of list for inspection and additions. Within
  ten days after the right to an election is complete the  town  clerk  of
  each  town in which any portion of such territory is located shall cause
  to be posted in six public places in that part of such territory located
  in such town and also to be published at least twice in the newspaper or
  newspapers  designated  pursuant  to  subdivision  eleven   of   section
  sixty-four of the town law, a notice: that a registration list of voters
  qualified  to  vote at such election will be available for inspection in
  their office between the hours of twelve o'clock noon and  nine  o'clock
  in  the  evening  on a day specified therein which day shall not be on a
  Sunday and shall be at least three days prior to such election; that  at
  said  time  and  place said list will be available for inspection by the
  public; and also that at said time and  place  persons  claiming  to  be
  qualified to vote at such election whose names are not on such list may,
  upon  presentation  of  proper  proofs,  have their names added thereto.
  Prior to posting,  the  town  clerk  or  clerks  shall  provide  to  the
  commission  a  list  of  the  six locations where such notices are to be
  posted. Should the commission object to any such locations submitted  by
  the town clerk or clerks, the commission shall, no later than seven days
  after receipt of such list of locations, direct the town clerk or clerks
  to  post  such  notices  in  alternative  locations  designated  by  the
  commission. The postings of such notices shall be made by the town clerk
  or clerks no later than twenty days after the right to  an  election  is
  complete.  For  the purposes of this section, in the event that the town
  maintains a website, one of the posting requirements  required  by  this
  subdivision  may  be fulfilled by posting such information on the town's
  website.
4. No person shall be entitled to vote at  such  election  whose  name
  does not appear on the registration list of voters.
