BILL NUMBER:S6705 TITLE OF BILL: An act extending the time within which certain elected officers may file their oaths of office PURPOSE: This bill would allow for those duly elected officials in the Town of Smithtown in the most recent town-wide election (November 2013), who failed to timely file their oaths of office within the statutory deadline, to properly cure that ministerial defect and serve out their full four-year terms. SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: Section 1: The first section provides that for any duly elected official in a town-wide race in the Town of Smithtown who failed to timely take or file their respective oath of office, such officials will have an additional thirty day time frame from enactment of this legislation to take and file their respective oaths of office. If such elected officials take and file their respective oaths of office in the new thirty day timeframe, they will be deemed to have been in their elected office since the commencement of their term (January 1, 2014) and shall remain in their respective office until the conclusion of their term (December 31, 2017).
