A.
It is found and declared that § 3-300, Subdivision
2, of the Village Law provides a procedure whereby the office of Superintendent
of Public Works of the Village of Scotia may be filled and occupied
by a person other than a resident of the Village of Scotia if the
Village of Scotia passes a local law to that effect.
B.
It is further found and declared that the Village
of Scotia has had a difficult time finding qualified interested persons
within the boundaries of the Village of Scotia willing and able to
serve as Superintendent of Public Works due to the increasing demands
of time and the specific engineering and personnel expertise required
in this position.
The Village Board of Trustees of the Village
of Scotia hereby enacts a local law in accord with Village Law § 3-300,
Subdivision 2, specifically declaring that the position of Superintendent
of Public Works for the Village of Scotia may now be filled by a nonresident
of the Village of Scotia, specifically by a resident of the Town of
Glenville if said person is a resident of said town and not a resident
of the Village of Scotia.
