RESOLUTION 25-80
RESOLUTION APPROVING THE STANDARD WORKDAY AND REPORTING FOR ELECTED AND APPOINTED OFFICIALS
The following Resolution was duly presented for consideration by the Town Board:
WHEREAS, the Town Board of the Town of Lansing needs to establish and report the standard work day for elected and appointed officials; and
WHEREAS, effective August 12, 2009, each elected or appointed official who is enrolled in the NYS Retirement System, must prepare a record of work-related activities for three consecutive months within 150 days of the start of a new term or appointment; and
WHEREAS, the log must contain a daily detail of hours worked and duties performed that are directly related to the elected or appointed position, including official duties performed outside normal business hours; and
WHEREAS, by certifying that a previously submitted three-month log is still representative of time worked, officials elected or appointed to new terms will not have to keep a new log for up to eight years. If an official who believes their initial three-month log is not representative of the average number of hours worked, he or she may submit a new record of activities for an alternative three-month period; and
WHEREAS, the Legislative Clerk must retain each record of activities for a period of at least thirty years and provide full and complete copies to the Office of the State Comptroller upon request; and
WHEREAS, the Resolution must be adopted at the first regular meeting held after the first 180 days of a new term, or whenever a new elected or appointed office is established; and
WHEREAS, upon due deliberation thereupon by the Town Board, the Town Board of Lansing has duly
RESOLVED, that the Town Board of the Town of Lansing hereby adopts the New York State Comptroller Form RS 2417-A as the Official Form Approving Standard Workday and Reporting Resolution for Elected and Appointed Officials:
