Constitution, and Subdivision 1(ii)e(3) of § 10 of the Municipal
Home Rule Law, Subdivision 3 of § 7-718 of the Village Law
is hereby amended and superseded in its application to the Village
of Williston Park.
The Board of Trustees of the Village shall have the full power
and authority of a village planning hoard, as provided for under the
Village Law of the State of New York, in the same manner and to the
same extent as if the Board of Trustees had duly authorized by local
law the creation of a planning board consisting of five members, and
the Trustees of the Village shall be deemed to serve as members of
the Planning Board of the Village, in the same manner and to the same
extent as if same were duly appointed by the Mayor and approved by
the Board of Trustees as Planning Board members, except to the extent
that § 7-718, Subdivision 3, of the Village Law is superseded
by the provisions of this article. All references to the "Planning
Board" contained in any ordinance, law or resolution heretofore adopted
by the Board of Trustees of the Village, or in any local law or resolution
hereafter adopted by the Board of Trustees of the Village, shall be
deemed to refer to the Board of Trustees of the Village as then constituted,
serving in such capacity pursuant to the provisions of this article.
