AI Summary
This bill amends existing law regarding garbage districts in the towns of Brookhaven and Islip, Suffolk County, to increase the number of commissioners for the Seaview/Ocean Bay Park garbage district from five to seven, effective July 1, 2026. Previously, all five commissioners were elected from the entire district. Under the new provisions, five commissioners will still be elected, but with specific residency requirements: two must be residents of the Seaview community, two must be residents of the Ocean Bay Park community, and one will be elected from the entire Seaview/Ocean Bay Park garbage district. The remaining two commissioners will be the elected presidents of the Seaview and Ocean Bay Park communities, who will hold the same powers as the elected commissioners.
