Re: Witham v. Town Board
George C. Crannell, Town Clerk, has delivered to me a copy
of the p etition.of Clifford Wit order t4 show cause which
were served yesterday and whtch. is returnable at Special Term on
October 21.
Since I am town attorney ex officio by the terms of my
appointment as County Attorney, I believe there should be a
resolution authorizing me to defend this proceeding on behalf of
the Town Board.
This proceeding is what is commonly known as an Article 7$
proceeding which may be brought against any public officer of body
to test the validity of any act or to compel the performance of some
act by the public officer or body. ,
Much has been said on the local radio station about the
"show cause order" which is only a procedure for bringing the matter
before the court and does not in itaelf �have any effect on the issues
to be decided by the court. This proceeding could have been brought
on by a notice of presentation which must be served at least -twenty
days :prior to the date the matter is to be heard by the court. Since
October 21 is the last Special Term the -present term and there 1
are not twenty days remaining, Mr. Hail brought the proceeding on by J
a show catrder which, again, decides nothing,.
I shall prepare an answer on behalf of the Town Board. If
the Court decides on reading the petition and answer that there are
issues of fact which require a trial, a date will be set for the
taking of proof. On the other hand, if the Court decide$ thereare
no issues of fact requiring a trial, the proceeding will be decided
on the issues of law. ,
When Mr. Laakso was appointed as a member of the Town Planning
Board,. the Town Board had no knowledge that he is not a..citizen.
He appeared..to have excellent qualifications on the basis of education
and experience, he is a, resident and substantial real progerty owner
in Queensbury and -since he indicated his willingness to serve on the
Planning Board, there was no reason for the Town Board to suspect he
might not- be a citizen Qr to inquire into his citizenship:. Of Bourse,
Mr. Laakso knew he is not a citizen but he had no knowledge that
citizenship was required of a member of a planning board.
Mr. Witham's almost daily pronouncements on the air appear to
f have been .intended to give the impression to the public that the
Town Board in appointing Mr. Laakso to the Planning Board committed
an almost criminal act. I am-glad he has finally come through with
his threatened action so this matter may be cleared up for all time.
Mr. Hall is of the opinion that the appointment of Mr. Laakiso
invalidates all of the proceedings of the Planning Board.. 1-am of
the opinion that the fact that Mr. Laakso was disqualified will have
no effect on any acts or proceedings of the Planning Board. The
Court will soon decide which of us is correct.
