January 5, 1994
PUBLIC SEARIIa3 - Residency Requirements - Public Officials
The Supervisor requested the Town Attorney to explain the proposed
local law.
Mr. Silverberg answered that the purpose of the proposed law was to
amend the State law which mandates that all public officials must
live in the municipality which employs them. He explained further
that this law will effect almost every one of the Department Heads
and their Deputies.
On motion of Councilwoman O'Flinn, seconded by Councilwoman O'Keeffe,
the Public Hearing was unanimously declared open at 8:42 pm.
The Supervisor asked which department heads are involved in the
change, to which the Attorney answered that he didn't know them all,
but he knew that it was the Building Inspector, Comptroller, Town
Administrator, Assessor and any of their deputies that didn't live in
the Town.
The Supervisor requested that a list be prepared of those department
heads that would be effected by this law. She asked if anyone wished
to speak in favor or against the proposed law. There being no
comment she asked if any of the Board members had any comments.
The Town Clerk asked the Attorney to explain why the law being passed
was not subject to mandatory referendum, because to her knowledge to
amend a state law, the mmmicipality would have to do it either by
mandatory referendum or at least by hams rule request.
The Attorney replied that he had contacted the State and had been
told that this law could be changed by local law, and because most
municipalities had amended the law over the years that it had lost
it's general applicability, it was their opinion that a local law was
all that was necessary.
The Clerk than said that she also knew that the State Comptroller's
office differed in their opinion on this and in their view a
mandatory referendum was necessary to amend this law.
The Attorney said that he was aware of the Comptroller's opinion, but
in his estimate they were incorrect, therefore he had prepared the
law and informed the Board on haw to proceed.
There being no further questions. On motion of Councilwoman O'Flinn,
seconded by Councilman Ryan, the Public Hearing was declared closed.
On motion of Councilman Ryan, seconded by' Councilwoman O'Flinn, it
was ln+ani1nI usly
RESOLVED, that the Town Board of the Town of
Mamaroneck does hereby approve Local Law No.
1-1994 which will amend the State law that
mandates residency requirements for Public
Officers of the Town.

January 5, 1994
LOCAL LAW NO. 1-1994
RESIDENCY REQUIREMENTS FOR APPOINTED TOWN OFFICERS
Section 1. Purpose:
The purpose of this local law is to establish residency requirements
for appointed town officers and to supersede the requirements of
Public Officers Law Section 3 and any similar residency requirements
contained in Town law to the extent that such requirements pertain to
residency of appointed town officers. Public Officers Law Section 3
provides that town officers shall reside within the Town. This law
has been substantially amended over the years to provide for
exceptions for various namicipalities and for all positions within
those municipalities, it therefore no longer has general
applicability. These amendments recognize that there is no longer
the need to have qualified candidates for appointment to town office
reside within the geographic confines of the town and that it is
prefereable to leave to the judgment of each municipal government
whether a particular candidate's residence will interfere with that
individuals ability to properly perform the functions of a particular
position.
Section 2. Residency:
All appointed officers of the town !oust reside within Westchester
County or a county which adjoins Westchester County.
Section 3. Severability:
Should any provision of this local law be declared invalid by a court
of competent jurisdiction, such declaration of invalidity shall not
effect any other section of this local law which may be otherwise
capable of enforcement.
Section 4. Effective Date:
This local law shall take effect immediately upon acknowledgement of
filing with the Secretary of State.

ORAL COMMUNICATIONS

Mike Salem, Richbell Road said that the streets and sidewalks on
Richbell were poorly shoveled, they were extremely icy and dangerous.
Mr. O'Gorman, Revere Road, said that there had been a question on
