[HISTORY: Adopted by the Town Board of the
Town of Harrison 8-7-2008 by L.L. No. 6-2008. Amendments noted where
applicable.]
The purpose of this chapter is to authorize
the Town Board of the Town of Harrison, the Village Board of the Village
of Harrison, the Board of Police Commissioners of Harrison and the
Board of Fire Commissioners of Harrison to appoint a hearing officer
to conduct hearings in disciplinary proceedings and to establish the
rules of procedure to be followed in such proceedings.
A.
In the event that disciplinary charges are presented
to the Town Board of the Town of Harrison, the Village Board of the
Village of Harrison, the Board of Police Commissioners of Harrison,
or the Board of Fire Commissioners of Harrison against any police
officer, firefighter or any other municipal employee, the aforementioned
Boards may adopt a resolution appointing a hearing officer to conduct
the hearing on such charges.
B.
The hearing officer designated by the Boards shall
be an attorney duly licensed to practice law in the State of New York
at the time of the appointment.
If a hearing officer is so appointed by any
Board, they shall keep or cause to be kept a record of such hearing.
After the conclusion of the hearing, the hearing officer shall make
specific findings of fact which they shall then transmit to the Board,
together with their conclusions regarding each of the Charges and
Specifications, their recommendations for a penalty and the record
of the hearing. The Board shall then review the record, factual findings,
conclusions and recommendations of the hearing officer and render
a final determination in writing.
The procedure to be followed in any disciplinary
proceeding whether it is heard by the Board or a hearing officer,
shall be the procedure as set forth in the New York State Administrative
Procedure Act, as it may be amended from time to time, for adjudicatory
proceedings, except to the extent that said procedure conflicts with
this chapter, or any other state or local law more specifically directed
at such disciplinary proceedings. The Town Board of the Town of Harrison
reserves the right to hereinafter adopt Rules of Procedure for Administrative
Hearings.
