Authorizes the town attorney of the town of Islip to be a nonresident of such town
This bill allows the town attorney of Islip, New York, to live outside the town while still holding the position. It changes state laws that normally require local attorneys to be residents of the town where they work. The only requirement for the attorney is that they must live within Suffolk County, the county where Islip is located. This change applies only to Islip and does not affect the residency rules for attorneys in other towns.
