Notice to be given to all Board members in time to study the <br />agenda's of a special meeting. 2. Notice of the meeting must be <br />given to the public and caused to be published in a newspaper of <br />general circulation. 3. Notice to the public must be accompanied by <br />posting in one or more designated public locations." <br /> <br />Tr. Napoleon stated that two of these criteria were not met. "The <br />opinion of the Law was given to me by the Legal Department of the New <br />York State Comptrollers Office. I was also informed by their legal <br />department that if the letter of the. Law is not followed by the <br />Village Board~ the burden of bringing action against the Mayor and <br />Board of Trustees rests solely with me." <br /> <br />Meeting of Feb. 13th~ 1991 - Page #1 <br /> <br /> <br />
