        AN ACT to amend the general municipal law,  in  relation  to  preventing
          certain  elected  officials  from  being a member of an agency; and to
          repeal subdivision 4 of section 856 of such law relating thereto
 
          The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and  Assem-
        bly, do enact as follows:
 
     1    Section  1.  Subdivision 4 of section 856 of the general municipal law
     2  is REPEALED and a new subdivision 4 is added to read as follows:
     3    4. No member of an agency shall be an elected official of the  munici-
     4  pality  nor  shall any member of an agency be an elected official of any
     5  county, city, town, or village within the county in which the agency  is
     6  located.  Where  an  individual  who  currently serves as a member of an
     7  agency would be ineligible to serve until his or her term as a member of
     8  an agency has  expired,  the  governing  body  of  the  municipality  or
     9  appointing  authority  of  the  agency  shall appoint new members of the
    10  agency as provided in subdivision two of this section where an  individ-
    11  ual  was  no  longer able to serve in such a capacity.  This subdivision
    12  shall not apply to any elected officials required to serve on an  indus-
    13  trial  development agency under title two of this article. This subdivi-
    14  sion shall not apply to any industrial development  agency  that  has  a
    15  board  entirely composed of elected officials from the municipality that
    16  chartered such industrial development agency.
    17    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
