The Board of Ethics established hereunder shall render

of the Town Board, make recommendations to such Town Board as to any
amendments of this chapter. The opinions of the Board of Ethics shall
be advisory and confidential, and in no event shall the identity of
the town employee be disclosed except to authorized persons and agencies.
Such opinions shall be on the advice of counsel employed by the Board
of Ethics, or, if none, of the Town Attorney.

Any town employee who requests an opinion or is the
subject matter of an opinion before the Board of Ethics shall be granted
the right to be heard by said Board prior to the making of an opinion.
Such Board of Ethics, upon its formation, shall

and shall maintain appropriate records of its opinions and proceedings.
