No local law shall be adopted by the Board of Trustees of the Village
of LeRoy until a public hearing has been held thereon in its final form before
such Board of Trustees, not less than three nor more than 30 days after public
notice has been given of the time and place of the holding of such public
hearing. Such notice shall be given by the Village Clerk by causing the same
to be published once in the official newspaper of the village. Such notice
shall contain the title of the proposed local law and a brief explanatory
statement thereof.
The Village Clerk shall cause to be printed or otherwise reproduced
copies of such proposed local law and shall, not later than the day such notice
is published, post one such copy, together with the notice of hearing, in
a conspicuous place in his office and shall also make copies of such proposed
local law available at his office for inspection by and distribution to any
interested person during business hours.
The Village Clerk shall forthwith upon adoption of a local law by the
Board of Trustees post a copy thereof in a conspicuous place in his office
and shall, within 10 days after such adoption, cause the local law, or an
abstract thereof describing the same in general terms, to be published once
in the official newspaper of the village.
Proof of publication of the notice of public hearing required by §
20-1 hereof and proof the posting and publication required by §
20-3 hereof shall be filed in the office of the Village Clerk.
Each local law shall be identified by first the year of enactment and
then numbered consecutively, beginning with number one (No. 1), for each calendar
year. When a local law is finally adopted and certified copies thereof, as
required by § 27 of the Municipal Home Rule Law, are filed in the
offices of the Village Clerk, the State Comptroller and the Secretary of State,
the Village Clerk shall accordingly assign to such local law its appropriate
number.
