* § 1547. Tuckahoe parking authority. A board to be known as "Tuckahoe

parking authority" is hereby created. Such board shall be a body

corporate, constituting a public benefit corporation, and its existence

shall commence upon the appointment of the members as herein provided.

It shall consist of a chairman and four other members, who shall be

appointed by the mayor with the approval of the board of trustees of the

village. Of the members first appointed, one shall be appointed for a

period of one year, one for a period of two years, one for a period of

three years, one for a period of four years, and one for a period of

five years. At the expiration of such terms, the terms of office of

their successors shall be five years. Each member shall continue to

serve until the appointment and qualification of his successor.

Vacancies in such board occurring otherwise than by the expiration of

term shall be filled for the unexpired term. The members of the board

shall choose from their number a vice-chairman. The board of trustees

may remove any member of the board for inefficiency, neglect of duty or

misconduct in office, giving him a copy of the charges against him and

an opportunity of being heard in person, or by counsel, in his defense

upon not less than ten days' notice. The members of the board shall be

entitled to no compensation for their services but shall be entitled to

reimbursement for their actual and necessary expenses incurred in the

performance of their official duties. The powers of the authority shall

be vested in and exercised by a majority of the members of the board

then in office. Such board may delegate to one or more of its members or

to its officers, agents and employees such powers and duties as it may

deem proper. Such board and its corporate existence shall continue only

for a period of five years, and thereafter until all its liabilities

have been met and its bonds have been paid in full or such liabilities

or bonds have otherwise been discharged. Upon its ceasing to exist, all

its rights and properties shall pass to the village.
