§ 201. Reorganization of departments. When authorized by local law,
and in accordance with its provisions, the county executive may
establish additional departments or change the functions of existing
departments under his jurisdiction, provide for their organization and
maintenance and assign to each the functions it shall perform, including
functions exercised at the time of such reorganization by any other
administrative departments, offices or agencies of the county not headed
by elective officers. Any such department, office or agency, when all of
its functions are so assigned, may be abolished by local law. County
functions not expressly assigned by this chapter shall be distributed
among departments as may be provided by local law.
