Section 264. Adoption of zoning regulations

1. Method of procedure. The
  town board shall provide for  the  manner  in  which  such  regulations,
  restrictions   and  the  boundaries  of  such  districts  including  any
  amendments  thereto  shall  be  determined,  established  and  enforced.
  However,  no  such  regulations, restrictions or boundaries shall become
  effective until after a public hearing in relation thereto, at which the
  public shall have an opportunity to be heard. At least ten days'  notice
  of  the  time and place of such hearing shall be published in a paper of
  general circulation in such town.
    Every zoning ordinance and  every  amendment  to  a  zoning  ordinance
  (excluding  any  map  incorporated  therein)  adopted  pursuant  to  the
  provisions of this chapter shall be entered in the minutes of  the  town
  board;  such  minutes  shall  describe  and  refer to any map adopted in
  connection with such zoning ordinance or amendment and a  copy,  summary
  or abstract thereof (exclusive of any map incorporated therein) shall be
  published  once in a newspaper published in the town, if any, or in such
  newspaper published in the county in which  such  town  may  be  located
  having  a circulation in such town, as the town board may designate, and
  affidavits of the publication thereof  shall  be  filed  with  the  town
  clerk. Such ordinance shall take effect ten days after such publication,
  but  such  ordinance or amendment shall take effect from the date of its
  service as against a person  served  personally  with  a  copy  thereof,
  certified  by  the  town clerk under the corporate seal of the town; and
  showing the date of its passage and entry in the minutes.    Every  town
  clerk  shall  maintain  a  separate  file or filing cabinet for each and
  every map adopted in connection with a zoning ordinance or amendment and
  shall file therein every such map hereafter adopted; said file or filing
  cabinet to be available at any time during regular  business  hours  for
  public inspection.
    2.  Service  of written notice. At least ten days prior to the date of
  the  public  hearing,  written  notice  of  any  proposed   regulations,
  restrictions  or  boundaries of such districts, including any amendments
  thereto, affecting property within five hundred feet  of  the  following
  shall  be  served  personally or by mail by the town upon each person or
  persons listed below:

  project authorized under the public  housing  law;  upon  the  executive
  director  of  such  housing authority and the chief executive officer of

  codes, rules and regulations and any other general laws relating to land
  use and any amendments thereto.
