The town's long dormant Ethics Board is scheduled to meet tomorrow, Tuesday Oct 9th at 10AM at Town Hall. The Board majority appointed the mandated body back in January and never notified them of their appointments. Hence, no one signed the oath book in the required 30 day time required by law.
Even after a Counil member asked for an opinion on the Building department chief building houses in apparent violation of sections of the code, the town board stayed mum or dumb about the invalid appointments, nop ethics board was legally seated to render any advice.
It was not until August that the town reappointed the ethics board after being publicly embarrassed the month before.
The Ethics Board will also have a second complaint filed last Friday by Ron Sinico, a former Supervisor candidate. It is far more comprehensive than the request filed by Council member Mary Frances Sabo. It also includes questions about the ethics of the Town Supervisor as well as the Building Department chief.
The meeting and the Ethics Board itself are governed by the State's Open Meeting's Law. The public can attend.
