S 1119 New York Senate · 2023 Regular Session

Authorizes the town justice of the town of Rushford, county of Allegany, to be a nonresident of such town

This bill allows the town justice of Rushford, a town in Allegany County, to live outside of the town while holding office. Normally, local officials must be residents of the area they serve, but this law makes an exception for this specific position. The change requires that the town justice still lives within Allegany County, while residents of other towns must continue to live in their own towns unless state law says otherwise. This adjustment is intended to help the town of Rushford find a qualified person for the role without forcing them to relocate.
