  2. Article 7. Permissive Referendum

§ 90. Acts or resolutions of the town board that are subject to a

referendum on petition. Whenever this chapter shall expressly provide

that an act or resolution of the town board is subject to a permissive

referendum, such act or resolution shall be subject to a referendum on

petition as set forth in the next section, unless a proposition therefor

shall have been adopted at a town election. Within ten days after the

adoption by the town board of any resolution which is subject to a

permissive referendum as above defined, the town clerk, in the same

manner as provided for notice of a special election, shall post and

publish a notice which shall set forth the date of the adoption of the

resolution and contain an abstract of such act or resolution concisely

stating the purpose and effect thereof. The notice shall specify that

such resolution was adopted subject to a permissive referendum.
