What A 9074 does, verified June 9, 2026
The bill aims to exempt the St. Lawrence County Public Health Director and Community Services Director from the residency requirement. Currently, these individuals must be residents of the county or municipal corporation they serve. However, this bill allows them to hold the office if they reside in a county adjacent to St. Lawrence County within New York State. Additionally, the bill clarifies that individuals performing these functions in other counties must be residents of those counties, unless otherwise specified by law.
