 AN ACT to amend the town law and the public officers law, in relation to

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 1 Section 1. Section 23 of the town law is amended by adding a new
 2 subdivision 38 to read as follows:
 3 38. Notwithstanding the provisions of subdivision one of this section,
 4 in the town of Dix, in the county of Schuyler, the person performing the
 5 function of town justice, need not be an elector of such town.
 6 Provided, however, the person performing the function of town justice in
 7 any other town shall be an elector of such town, unless otherwise
 8 provided by an act of the state legislature.
 9 § 2. Section 3 of the public officers law is amended by adding a new
 10 subdivision 77 to read as follows:
 11 77. In the town of Dix, in the county of Schuyler, the provisions of
 12 this section requiring a person to be a resident of the political subdi-
 13 vision or municipal corporation of the state for which such person shall
 14 be chosen or within which such person's official functions are required
 15 to be exercised, shall not prevent a person from holding the office of
 16 town justice of the town of Dix; provided that such person resides in a
 17 town which is in the county of Schuyler. Provided, however, the person
 18 performing the function of town justice in any other town shall be a
 19 resident of such town, unless otherwise provided by law.
 20 § 3. This act shall take effect immediately.
