For various reasons, including illnesses, vacations,
and conflicts of interest, it is sometimes not possible for every
member of the Zoning Board of Appeals, the Planning Board and the
Historic Preservation Review Board to act at every meeting. Such inability
to act at every meeting may delay or impede such Boards in meeting
their responsibilities. The purpose of this article is to authorize
the appointment and service of alternate members of the Zoning Board
of Appeals, the Planning Board, and the Historic Preservation Review
Board of the Village of Pittsford.
As used in this article, the following terms
shall have the meanings indicated:
An individual appointed, as provided herein, to serve on
the Zoning Board of Appeals, the Planning Board or the Historic Preservation
Review Board when required to replace any member of such Boards who
is unable to act at any meeting for any reason.

board. If the Village Board of Trustees designates multiple alternates
