Lynbrook's Recreation Commission has heretofore been established
by the Village Board of Trustees by resolution pursuant to General
Municipal Law Article 15, § 243, with a statutory membership
of seven members. This chapter is intended to provide for alternate
members to the Commission and to provide for the authority of the
Village Board to delegate such responsibilities, by resolution, as
it deems appropriate from time to time, to the Recreation Commission.
The Mayor may appoint a first alternate member and a second
alternate member and a third alternate member who shall be called
to serve on the Recreation Commission as a temporary replacement for
any Commission member who may be unavailable to serve in such situations
as recusal, sickness, vacation, business engagements, or the like.
The Chairman shall initially call the first alternate to serve and,
upon the unavailability of the first alternate to serve, shall call
upon the second alternate to serve; should the second alternate be
unavailable to serve, shall call upon the third alternate to serve.
The alternate members shall serve for a one-year term.
The Mayor, with the advice and consent of the Village Board
of Trustees, shall fill any vacancy in the Committee membership by
appointment. Such appointed member shall fill the term of the office
of the vacated member.
The Village Board, by resolution, may delegate responsibilities,
from time to time, pursuant to General Municipal Law § 243(1)
as it deems appropriate to the Recreation Commission.
