[Adopted 2-2-2012 by L.L. No. 2-2012]
For various reasons, including illnesses, vacations, and conflicts
of interest, it is sometimes not possible to obtain or maintain a
quorum of the Zoning Board of Appeals. Such failure to obtain or maintain
a quorum may delay or impede such Board in meeting its responsibilities.
The purpose of this article is to authorize the appointment and service
of an alternate member of the Zoning Board of Appeals when necessary
to achieve a quorum.
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 when required to obtain or maintain a
quorum.
The Zoning Board of Appeals of the Village of South Floral
Park.
A.
The alternate member of the Zoning Board of Appeals shall, subject
to the approval of the Board of Trustees, be appointed by the Mayor
for a period of three years. All provisions of state law relating
to Zoning Board of Appeals member eligibility, vacancy in office,
removal, compatibility of office and service on other boards, as well
as any provisions of a local law or ordinance relating to training,
continuing education, compensation and attendance, shall also apply
to the alternate member of the Zoning Board of Appeals.
B.
The Chairperson of the Zoning Board of Appeals may designate the
alternate member of the Zoning Board of Appeals to serve when necessary,
and only so long as necessary, to obtain or maintain a quorum of such
Board. Such designation and its expiration shall be entered into the
minutes of the Zoning Board of Appeals. When so designated, the alternate
member of the Zoning Board of Appeals shall possess all the powers
and responsibilities of a member of such Board.
