SECTION 1. Purpose.
Article I of Chapter 16 of the Code of the Town of Queensbury, "Volunteer Fire Fighter
Awards," provides a plan for the administration of a Volunteer Fire Fighter Service Award
Program. However, it has been determined that Article I of Chapter 16 is not necessary for the
administration and implementation of the Award Program and that repeal of Article I of Chapter 16
will make it easier and less cumbersome to adopt and implement amendments to the Award
Program. Therefore, the purpose of this Local Law is to repeal Article I of Chapter 16.
SECTION 2. Statutory Authority.
This Local Law is authorized by §10 of the New York Municipal Home Rule Law and
Article 11-A of the General Municipal Law and is subject to a mandatory referendum pursuant to
Article 11-A of the General Municipal Law.
