The administrative and executive powers of the Village, including the power of appointment of officers and employees, except the Village Clerk, the Village Attorney and Treasurer and, in the County of Westchester, officers and members of the Police Department, where such a department has been established pursuant to law, are vested in an official to be known as the "Village Manager," who shall be appointed by the Board of Trustees and shall hold office during the pleasure of such Board.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of law, the Board of Trustees may also appoint the Village Manager to the office of Village Clerk, to serve in such office at the discretion of such Board. Superseding, to the extent necessary, the provisions of § 4-402 of the Village Law of the State of New York and § 5711-q of the Unconsolidated Laws of the State of New York, the administrative and executive powers of the Village shall include the power to supervise the Village Clerk, Village Treasurer and Chief of Police, each of whom shall report to the Village Manager, each of whom shall be subject to the direction and control of the Village Manager.

B. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board of Trustees of the Village of Mamaroneck may appoint a Village Manager for a term not exceeding four (4) years from the date of such appointment, provided that the person so appointed shall have served the Village of Mamaroneck prior to such appointment for twelve (12) or more months, in any period or periods, as Village Manager or discharged the duties of Village Manager during the absence or inability to serve of a regularly appointed Village Manager.
C. 
The Village of Mamaroneck acknowledges the requirement of state law that no person shall be eligible for appointment as Village Manager who is not a Village resident, and it further acknowledges the provision of state law which allows that the Board of Trustees of the Village of Mamaroneck may provide that its Village Manager may reside within the county in which the Village is situated. Accordingly, and in an effort to ensure that the most qualified person may be appointed as Village Manager, the Board of Trustees of the Village of Mamaroneck hereby provides that the Village Manager of the Village of Mamaroneck may reside anywhere within the County of Westchester.
