Exempts the residency requirement for the comptroller and building inspector in the town of Chester, county of Orange
This bill changes the residency rules for two specific town officials in Chester, Orange County: the comptroller and the building inspector. Currently, these roles require the holder to live within the town, but this legislation allows them to reside anywhere in Orange County instead. The change applies only to Chester; officials in other towns must still live within their respective towns unless state law says otherwise. The law takes effect immediately upon passing.
