N.Y. Alternative County Government Law § 57: Terms of elective county officials not to be abridged

§ 57. Terms of elective county officials not to be abridged. The term

of office of an elective county official shall not be abridged by reason

of the approval of any question providing for the adoption in the first

instance of an alternative form of county government or modification,

change or abandonment, of any such form previously adopted. If an

elective official of the county is continued in office after his office

is abolished, he shall perform such related duties for the remainder of

his term, unless a vacancy otherwise occurs, as may be assigned to him:

(1) in case of the modification or change of an existing form of county

government, by the county executive; or (2) in case of the abandonment

of an existing form, by the board of supervisors of the county. He shall

be paid a compensation to be fixed by the board of supervisors and paid

by the county.
