 4 Medina, in the county of Orleans, the provisions of this section requir-
 5 ing a person to be a resident of the political subdivision or municipal
 6 corporation of the state for which such person shall be chosen or within

 8 shall not prevent a person from holding the position of police officer
 9 for the village of Medina, provided that such person resides in the
 10 county of Orleans, any contiguous county, or the county of Wayne.
 11 Provided, however, the person performing the functions of police officer
 12 in any other village shall be a resident of such village unless other-
 13 wise provided by an act of the state legislature.
 14 § 2. Section 3 of the public officers law is amended by adding a new
 15 subdivision 77 to read as follows:
 16 77. In the village of Medina, in the county of Orleans, the provisions

 22 provided that such person resides in the county of Orleans, an adjoining
 23 county within the state of New York, or the county of Wayne. Provided,
 24 however, the persons performing the functions of police officer in any
 25 other village shall be a resident of such village, unless otherwise
