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 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,

the State Comptroller and the Secretary of State, the Village Clerk
shall accordingly assign to such local law its appropriate number.
