N.Y. Public Housing Law § 31: Scope of authority's jurisdiction

§ 31. Scope of authority's jurisdiction. The territorial jurisdiction

of an authority established for a city or village shall be coterminous

with the territorial limits of such city or village, and the territorial

jurisdiction of an authority established for a town shall include all

such town, except that such territorial jurisdiction shall not include

any territory that lies within the boundaries of any village, whether

such village has or has not established an authority. The members of

such town authority shall if they consent and when authorized by

resolutions of the town board and the village board, act as the

authority in and for said village, the same as if it had been created

especially for said village.
