[Added 4-18-2022 by L.L. No. 3-2022]
This article shall be entitled "A Local Law Changing the Residency
Requirement for the Office of Deputy Clerk II."
The intent of this article is to allow the Town Clerk or the
Town Board, as the case may be, to appoint a Deputy Town Clerk who
is not a resident of the Town of Pleasant Valley.
This article is enacted pursuant to § 10 of the Municipal
Home Rule Law.
The first Deputy Town Clerk of the Town of Pleasant Valley must
keep residency requirements, and any additional Deputy Town Clerks
appointed pursuant to § 30, Subdivision 10(a) and/or (b),
of the Town Law, at the time of his or her appointment and throughout
his or her term of office, need not be an elector of the Town of Pleasant
Valley, but must be a resident of Dutchess County.
This article is intended to supersede the residency requirements
contained in § 23, Subdivision 1, of the Town Law, § 3,
Subdivision 1, of the Public Officers Law, and any local law of the
Town of Pleasant Valley which requires the Deputy Town Clerk to be
an elector of the Town of Pleasant Valley.
