The Town Attorney reported to the Board that he felt it
wise in view of the enactment of Chapters684 and 685 of the Laws
of 1939, to have this Board approve highway claims, other than for
payroll, from the date these laws became effective which was June 3rd,
1939.
An opinion was requested from the Department of Audit and.
Control, as to the effect of these statutes so far as they amended
Sections 284 and 285 of the highway Law, immediately after they be-
came law but no reply was received from the State Comptroller' s
Office in Albany until August 29th and under that date Mr. O' Brien,
the Director of Municipal Accounts, advised that in order to avoid
criticism, claims should be approved by the Town Board.
Iron motion made by Councilman Mandeville, and seconded by
Councilman Bates, it was
RESOLVED that the following claims filed
with
the
Comptroller, other than payroll, which are
chargeable
against the Highway Budget of
1939,
are
audited and payment thereof approved:
