Pursuant to § 274-a of the Town Law, the Planning Board
is hereby empowered to review and approve, approve with modifications
or disapprove site plans and offer establishment of special use permits
upon compliance with conditions specified in this chapter. Pursuant
to § 271 of the Town Law, the Planning Board of the Town
of Chili shall consist of seven members appointed by the Town Board
in such manner and for such terms as provided in the Town Law. For
the purpose of initiating a Planning Board under this chapter, the
normal continuance of the existing Planning Board is established.
The Planning Board shall have power to pursue all those duties established
for it by the Town Law and this chapter. It shall establish such rules
and regulations as are necessary for the transaction of its business.
B.
The Town Board of the Town of Chili may, in any year it deems necessary,
appoint temporary alternate members to the Planning Board to serve
as provided in this section. The number of temporary members so appointed
pursuant to this section in any year shall not exceed three. Such
temporary members shall be appointed for one-year terms of office.
The Chairperson of the Planning Board shall assign such temporary
members as necessary when absence of regular members of said Board
or the conflict of interest of regular members of said Board would
otherwise prevent seven members of said Board from considering any
pending matter but no more than two temporary members shall sit in
determination of any pending matter. Such temporary members shall
be designated on a rotating basis in the manner provided in the general
governing rules of the Planning Board such that each temporary member
shall be afforded an equal opportunity to serve. Once designated to
serve on a particular matter before the Board, the temporary member
shall have the same powers and duties as regular members of the Board
until the matter is concluded. Any determination of said Board consisting
of temporary members shall have the same weight and be entitled to
the same authority as the act or deed of the regular Planning Board
and all laws, statutes and regulations shall apply and be applied
with equal force and effect. Such temporary members appointed pursuant
to this section shall be paid for their respective services as fixed
by resolution of the Town Board.

Organization. The Zoning Board of Appeals, hereinbefore created pursuant
to § 267 of Town Law, shall be comprised of five members.
To the extent the Zoning Board of Appeals consists of more than five
members as of the date of adoption of this subsection, each member
shall continue to hold office until the expiration of his or her present
term. Zoning Board of Appeals members shall be appointed by the Town
Board for a term of five years, which shall also designate the Chairman
thereof, for such terms as provided by the Town Law and any amendments
thereto and shall have all the powers and perform all the duties prescribed
by statute and by this chapter. Each member of the Zoning Board of
Appeals shall continue to hold office until the expiration of his
or her present term, at which time the Town Board shall appoint a
successor so as to maintain the Zoning Board of Appeals at five members.
If a vacancy shall occur other than by expiration of a term, it shall
be filled by the Town Board by appointment for the unexpired term,
provided no successor shall be appointed, nor shall any appointments
otherwise be made, where such an appointment would cause the Zoning
Board of Appeals to be comprised of greater than five members. The
Town Board may appoint no more than one person to serve on both the
Planning Board and the Zoning Board of Appeals concurrently. Said
Board shall establish and from time to time amend or repeal rules
and regulations for the effectuation of its powers and duties.
