AN  ACT  to amend the public authorities law, in relation to authorizing
  and establishing  compensation  for  members  of  the  Genesee  Valley
  Regional Market Authority

  THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  Section 1. Subdivision 4 of section 878 of the public authorities law,
as amended by chapter 55 of the laws of 1992,  is  amended  to  read  as
follows:
  4.  A member of the board shall continue in office during the pleasure
of the body appointing him or her.   Any  vacancy  which  may  occur  by
reason  of  the  death,  disqualification,  resignation  or removal of a
member shall be filled by the body which appointed such  member.    Each
member  of  the  board shall, before entering upon the duties of office,
take the constitutional oath of office and file the same in  the  office
of  the  secretary of state.   Any member may be removed by the governor
for inefficiency, neglect of duty or misconduct in office, after a hear-
ing upon charges and an opportunity to be heard in person or by  counsel
upon  not  less  than  ten  days' notice. The members of the board shall
[not] receive [a salary or other compensation, but]  ONE  HUNDRED  FIFTY
DOLLARS  FOR  EACH  BOARD  MEETING  ATTENDED,  AND  shall be paid actual
expenses incurred in attending  meetings  of  the  board  and  executive
committee  and  in  performing  committee  work  assigned to them by the
board, and shall be reimbursed for travel expenses at the per mile  rate
allowed  state employees for use of personal vehicles. The powers of the
authority shall be  vested  in  and  exercised  by  the  board  and  the
provisions  of  section  forty-one of the general construction law shall
apply; provided that the 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.
  S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
