The Board of Trustees has determined that the health, safety, welfare
and good order of the residents of the village and the general public require
the proper coordination of auxiliary police activities and functions within
the village with the Nassau County Police Department and appropriate civil
preparedness authorities to ensure optimum performance of their duties during
times of civil defense emergencies and authorized auxiliary police drill periods.
To properly effect such coordination, it is deemed appropriate to establish
the office of Auxiliary Police Coordinator for the village and to compensate
said Coordinator for his services.
Unless otherwise expressly provided, the following words, for the purpose
of this chapter, shall have the meanings hereinafter indicated:
AUXILIARY POLICE FORCES
The unit or other organization of auxiliary police established and
directed by the Nassau County Police Department pursuant to the New York State
Defense Emergency Act and serving only the territory encompassing the village.
The Board of Trustees hereby creates the office of Coordinator of Auxiliary
Police for the Village of Westbury.
The Coordinator shall submit to the Board annually, with his annual
report, a proposed budget for auxiliary police purposes, and all expenses
of his office shall be paid from funds appropriated therefor.
Nothing herein contained shall be construed to confer upon the Coordinator
any police function or authority to control or direct auxiliary police forces
in the performance of duties assigned to them by the Nassau County Police
Department.
