BILL NUMBER: S8928

SPONSOR: SERINO
 
TITLE OF BILL:  An act to amend the town law and the public officers
law, in relation to the residency requirements for the persons perform-
ing the functions of building inspector/code enforcement officer and
assistant/deputy building inspector/code enforcement officer for Putnam
Valley, Putnam County

 
PURPOSE:

This bill would exempt the residency requirement for building
inspector/code enforcement officer or assistant/deputy building inspec-
tor code enforcement officer in the town of Putnam Valley.

 
SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS:

Section 1 explains that the town of Putnam Valley has employed individ-
uals who reside outside of the town for positions that require town
residency. It validates, legalizes, ratifies, and confirms their employ-
ment of these individuals, notwithstanding the absence of prior legisla-

tive approval.

Section 2 amends Section 23 of the town law by adding a new subdivision
32 to state that the positions of building inspector/code enforcement
officer and assistant/deputy building inspector code enforcement officer
do not need to be an elector of such town.

Section 3 amends Section 3 of the public officers law by adding a new
subdivision 67 to state that the positions of building inspector/code
enforcement officer and assistant/deputy building inspector code
enforcement officer must be filled by a person who lives in Putnam Coun-
ty or any adjoining county.

 
JUSTIFICATION:

Under current law, the positions of building inspector/code enforcement
officer and assistant/deputy building inspector code enforcement officer
in the Town of Putnam Valley must be filled by a resident of the Town of
Putnam Valley. This bill will allow those positions to be filled by a
resident of Putnam County or an adjourning county to Putnam County.

 
LEGISLATIVE HISTORY:

New Bill.

 
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:

None to the state.

 
EFFECTIVE DATE:
This act shall take effect immediately.
