Section 2753. Monroe county airport authority

1. There is hereby created
  the Monroe county airport authority.  The  authority  shall  be  a  body
  corporate  and  politic  constituting  a public benefit corporation. The
  authority shall  consist  of  seven  members  appointed  by  the  county
  executive, provided that two of such members shall be appointed upon the
  written  recommendation  of  the president of the county legislature and
  one of such members shall be appointed upon the  written  recommendation
  of  the  minority  leader  of  the county legislature. No more than five
  members may be registered members  of  the  same  political  party.  All
  appointments  by  the  county executive shall be confirmed by a majority
  vote of the county legislature. The county executive shall designate the
  chairperson of the authority who shall serve  at  the  pleasure  of  the
  county  executive.  The  member  initially  appointed  upon  the written
  recommendation of the minority leader of the  county  legislature  shall
  serve   for  a  term  ending  December  thirty-first,  nineteen  hundred
  ninety-one.  Of  the  members  initially  appointed  upon  the   written
  recommendation  of  the  president  of the county legislature, one shall
  serve  for  a  term  ending  December  thirty-first,  nineteen   hundred
  ninety-two; and one shall serve for a term ending December thirty-first,
  nineteen  hundred  ninety-three.  Of  the  remaining  members  initially
  appointed by the county executive other than the chairperson, one  shall
  serve   for  a  term  ending  December  thirty-first,  nineteen  hundred
  ninety-one; one shall serve for a  term  ending  December  thirty-first,
  nineteen  hundred  ninety-two;  and  one  shall  serve for a term ending
  December thirty-first, nineteen hundred  ninety-three.  Thereafter  each
  member, other than the chairperson, shall serve a term of four years.
    2.  All  members  shall continue to hold office until their successors
  are appointed and qualify. Vacancies  shall  be  filled  in  the  manner
  provided  for  original appointment. Vacancies, occurring otherwise than
  by expiration of term of office,  shall  be  filled  for  the  unexpired
  terms.    Members may be removed from office for the same reasons and in
  the same manner as may be provided by law for the removal of officers of
  the county. The members of the authority shall receive  no  compensation
  for  their  services  but  shall  be reimbursed for all their actual and
  necessary expenses incurred in connection with the carrying out  of  the
  purposes  of  this title. The powers of the authority shall be vested in
  and be exercised by the members of  the  authority  at  a  meeting  duly
  called  and  held and a majority of directors shall constitute a quorum.
  No action shall be taken except pursuant to the  favorable  vote  of  at
  least a majority of directors. The members of the authority may delegate
  to one or more of its members, officers, agents or employees such powers
  and duties as it may deem proper.
    3.  Notwithstanding any inconsistent provision of any general, special
  or local law, ordinance, resolution or charter, no  officer,  member  or
  employee  of the state or of any public corporation shall forfeit his or
  her office  or  employment  by  reason  of  his  or  her  acceptance  of
  appointment as a member, officer or employee of the authority, nor shall
  service as such member, officer or employee be deemed incompatible or in
  conflict with such office, membership or employment.
    4.  The  authority shall continue for a term of one year after all its
  bonds have been fully paid  and  discharged.  Upon  termination  of  the
  existence of the authority, all of its rights and property shall pass to
  and be vested in the county.
