[Adopted 8-14-2007 by L.L. No. 1-2007]
This article shall be know as "A Local Law Establishing Training
Requirements for Town of Clinton Planning Board and Zoning Board of
Appeals Members."
New York State Town Law §§ 267 and 271, as amended
by Chapter 662 of the Laws of 2006, effective January 1, 2007, requires
all Planning Board and Zoning Board of Appeals (ZBA) members in New
York State, as well as alternate members, if they exist, of those
boards, to complete a minimum of four hours of training each year.
The stated statute of state law provides that Planning Board or ZBA
members shall not be eligible for reappointment to such boards if
they have not completed the training required by law.
The Town Clerk shall create and maintain a system of tracking
the training individual members complete annually; and such information
shall be presented to the Town Board prior to considering a member
for reappointment.
