[Adopted 8-6-2012 by L.L.
No. 2-2012]
Authorization for this article is granted under New York State
General Municipal Law Article 5-G and Village Law, Article 7, § 7-741,
Subdivision 4(a).
There is little argument that sharing services on a voluntary
basis often makes good sense and efforts to expand the number and
variety of cooperative services should be encouraged. Over the years,
it has become increasingly difficult to obtain sufficient numbers
of individuals willing to accept appointments to the respective Planning
Boards of the Village and Town of Warsaw. The economy and efficiency
of a Joint Planning Board is advantageous to both the Town and Village.
The Town and the Village find that it would be in the best interests
of the residents of both municipalities for a Joint Planning Board
to be created pursuant to the authority cited above.
A.
The
Village of Warsaw is authorized to create, in accordance with an intermunicipal
agreement with the Town of Warsaw, a Joint Planning Board consisting
of seven members:
D.
The
initial appointment of the jointly appointed representative will be
for:
(1)
A term of five years.
E.
At
the expiration of each term thereafter, successors to these positions
shall be appointed for terms of five years.
F.
At
the expiration of each original appointment to the Joint Planning
Board, vacant Town positions will be filled through appointment by
the Town, vacant Village positions will be filled through appointment
by the Village, and the vacant joint position will be appointed jointly
by the Village and the Town. However, in the event either municipality
is unable to fill appointments from their respective subdivision,
both parties hereto agree to honor appointments from the Town or Village
in an effort to maintain a viable Joint Planning Board.
G.
If
a vacancy shall occur in an unexpired term, appointment will be made
by the respective municipality from which that member was appointed
to fill the vacancy for the remainder of the unexpired term. However,
if either municipality is unable to fill a vacancy from their respective
political subdivision, both parties hereto agree to honor appointments
from the Town or Village in an effort to maintain a viable Planning
Board.
H.
The
Mayor of the Village of Warsaw shall have the power to remove members
appointed by the Village of Warsaw, subject to the provisions of § 7-718
of the Village Law of the State of New York.
Immediately following the enactment of this article, the Village
of Warsaw shall enter into an intermunicipal agreement with the Town
of Warsaw. All matters currently pending before the Planning Board
of the Village of Warsaw shall be transferred to the Joint Planning
Board.
If any part of this article is for any reason held to be unconstitutional
or invalid, such decision shall not affect the remainder of this article.
The Village hereby declares that it would have passed this article
and each section and subsection thereof irrespective of the fact that
any one or more of these sections, subsections, sentences, clauses
or phrases may be declared unconstitutional or invalid.
This article and its provisions are in addition to all other
applicable laws, rules and regulations.
This article shall be filed with the New York Secretary of State
and shall be effective October 1, 2012.

Authorization for this article is granted under New York State
General Municipal Law Article 5-G and Village Law, Article 7 § 7-741,
Subdivision 4(b).
There is little argument that sharing services on a voluntary
basis often makes good sense and efforts to expand the number and
variety of cooperative services should be encouraged. Over the years,
it has become increasingly difficult to obtain sufficient numbers
of individuals willing to accept appointments to the respective Zoning
Boards of Appeals of the Village and Town of Warsaw. The economy and
efficiency of a Joint Zoning Board of Appeals is advantageous to both
the Town and Village. The Town and the Village find that it would
be in the best interests of the residents of both municipalities for
a Joint Zoning Board of Appeals to be created pursuant to the authority
cited above.
A.
The Village of Warsaw is authorized to create, in accordance with
an intermunicipal agreement with the Town of Warsaw, a Joint Zoning
Board of Appeals consisting of seven members:
D.
The initial appointment of the jointly appointed representative will
be for:
(1)
A term of five years.
E.
At the expiration of each term thereafter, successors to these positions
shall be appointed for terms of five years.
F.
At the expiration of each original appointment to the Joint Zoning
Board of Appeals, vacant Town positions will be filled through appointment
by the Town, vacant Village positions will be filled through appointment
by the Village, and the vacant joint position will be appointed jointly
by the Village and the Town. However, in the event either municipality
is unable to fill appointments from their respective subdivision,
both parties hereto agree to honor appointments from the Town or Village
in an effort to maintain a viable Joint Zoning Board of Appeals.
G.
If a vacancy shall occur in an unexpired term, appointment will be
made by the respective municipality from which that member was appointed
to fill the vacancy for the remainder of the unexpired term. However,
if either municipality is unable to fill a vacancy from their respective
political subdivision, both parties hereto agree to honor appointments
from the Town or Village in an effort to maintain a viable Joint Zoning
Board of Appeals.
H.
The Mayor of the Village of Warsaw shall have the power to remove
members appointed by the Village of Warsaw, subject to the provisions
of § 7-712 of the Village Law of the State of New York.
Immediately following the enactment of this article, the Village
of Warsaw shall enter into an intermunicipal agreement with the Town
of Warsaw. All matters currently pending before the Zoning Board of
Appeals of the Village of Warsaw shall be transferred to the Joint
Zoning Board of Appeals.
All ordinances, local laws and parts thereof inconsistent with
this article are hereby repealed, including, but not limited to, Local
Law No. 1 of 1988.
If any part of this article is for any reason held to be unconstitutional
or invalid, such decision shall not affect the remainder of this article.
The Village hereby declares that it would have passed this article
and each section and subsection thereof irrespective of the fact that
any one or more of these sections, subsections, sentences, clauses
or phrases may be declared unconstitutional or invalid.
This article and its provisions are in addition to all other
applicable laws, rules and regulations.
This article shall be filed with the New York Secretary of State
and shall be effective October 1, 2012.
