I have also included a letter written in response to an inquiry from the Town of Cortland back in 1979 regarding this exact issue. Both the letter and Opinion No. 86- 78 clearly state that a given municipality does not have to put out for competitive bid the sale of recyclable materials. See paragraph two on page 125 which says, "the courts have stated that municipal officials have a fiduciary duty to secure the best price obtainable in their judgment or the most beneficial terms in the public interest. " As you know there is precedence on Long Island for negotiating directly with vendors to buy recyclable materials, as both Islip and North Hempstead have used this practice. If I can be of any further assistance on this issue don't hesitate to call me. Please keep me posted as to how the Town Board receives this advice. Thanks again for the "grand tour" yesterday. I was pleasantly surprised to see how successful Southold has been to date. Keep up the good work! Finally, I look forward to working with Jim Bunchak in the area of identifying new market opportunities for the East End. I am confident that we can help improve the prices paid to the Town for certain materials. Sincerely, Edward C. Campbell Market Development Specialist encl. Recycled Paper ..1 8� OPIMONS OF THE STATE 'TROLLER 124 i t-ea government, shall not be applicable to the county, unless a contrary intent is expressly stated in this chapter." (Also, we County Law, §1001(31.) Thus, if a county has adopted a charter form; of govertunent, it may adopt local laws superseding the provisions of County Law unlests the provision of the County Law in te question expressly provides that it may not be superseded GLong Island Liquid a in Association, Inc, v Cass, 115 AD2d 710, 496 NYS2d 527 app dsmd 67 NLiq id 501 NYS2d 664). Although County Law, §201 states that it shall apply notwithstanding any other general or state statute to the contrary,it does not contain any such expres- cion of intent with regard to local laws adopted by a county having an alternative form of government (cf.. County Law, §376(21 which provides that the mandatory provisions of Article 7 of the County Law shall apply "Motwithstanding the provisions of this chapter or of any general, special or local law. . .' - accordingly, since County Law, §201 does not contain such an expression of intent, we conclude that a charter county is authorized to adopt a local law authorizing it to pay the attorney registra- tion fee in behalf of members of the law department as part of their total compenea_ tion. We note, however, if the county attorney and/or,hia deputies are appointed for fixed terms and the local law providing for the payment of the registration fee would have the effect of increasing their compensation during their term of office, the local law would be subject to permissive referendum (Municipal Home Rule Law, §24(2j), November 24, 1986 Edgar Plummer, County Comptroller Broome County Opn No. 86,78 PERSONAL PROPERTY—Disposition(procedure for sale of unneeded town high way equipment) CONMICTS OF INTEREST — Exceptions (contracts with not-for-profit corpora. tion) HIGHWAY LAN, § 142(5), TOWN LAW, §64(2-a):A town has the discretion to sell unneeded, worn out or obsolete highway equipment, machinery, tools and implement® by public auction, 'Competitive bidding or private negotia- tion,. The method chosen should be the one which will bring the beat price or the most beneficial terms, GENERAL MUNICIPAL LAW, 0 8020)(f), MM- Under an exception to con• flict of interest principles, a town board member who is an officer of an incorporated volunteer fare company does not have a prohibited interest in a contract between the town and the fire company to provide fire protee. tion for a fire protection d strict in the town, However, he would have to disclose the interest to the town board. You have inquired about the proper procedures for the sale of surplus town highway machinery and other surplus town property. You also ask whether a prohibited con- Met of interest arises when a town board member is an officer of the incorporated volunteer fire company that contracts to provide fire protection to the town fire protec- tion district. Pursuant to Town Law, §64(2-a), a town board is authorized to "take, purchase, lease, sell and dispose of personal property as the purposes of the town require." Highway Law, §142(5) specifically authorizers the town highway superintendent, with • its OPINIONSIOTHE STATE COh1PIROLLER $ town board approval, to sell unneeded, worn out or obsolete machinery, tools, imple- ments and equipment. Neither Town Law, §64(2-a), Highway Law, §142(5) nor z.ny other statute prescribes a procedure for the sale of unneeded town personal property. Thus, there is no statutory mandate that such property be sold only after public advertisement for Sealed bids (cf General Municipal Law, §103 requiring competitive bidding for town purchases and contracts for public work involving expenditures in excess of$5,000 and $7,000, respectively). 1n describing a municipality's responsibility when selling unneeded property in situ- ations when competitive bidding is not required by statute, the courts have stated that municipal officials have a fiduciary duty to secure the beat price obtainable in their judgment or the most beneficial terms in the public interest (Ross v Wilson, 308 NY 605; Orelli v Ambro, 41 NY2d 952, 394 NYS2d 636;New City v Flagg, 111 AD2d 814, 490 NYS2d 56, affd 66 NY2d 960, 499 NYS2d 395; Merritt v Gallagher, 96 AD2d 933, 466 NYS2d $81). The method chosen for the sale by a town is within the sound discretion of the town board or the highway superintendent, subject to board approval, as the case ;may be. However, in order to fulfill the fiduciary duty, the method of We adopted should be the one which it is thought will bring the best price or maximum financial benefits and may include sale by either auction, private negotiation or com- petitive bidding (Merritt, supra). With regard to the potential conflict of interest of the board member who is a fire company ofricer, we note intially that Article 18 of the General Municipal Law con- tains provisions relative to conflicts of interest of municipal officers and employees. Under Article 18, municipal officers or employees are deemed to have an interest it the.contracts of a corporation of which the municipal officer or employee is an officer (General Municipal Law, 1800(3], (c)). Therefore, a town board member, who is also an officer of an incorporated volunteer fire company, has a statutory interest in contract between the town and the fire company of which he is an officer. General Municipal Law, §801 sets forth certain powers and duties which, if pos sessed by a municipal officer or employee, makes an interest in a contract prohibited Generally, it town board member's interest in a contract with the municipality woulc be prohibited since a town board member has the power or duty to (1) negotiate prepare, authorize or approve the contract or authorize or approve payment thereun der, (2) audit bills or claims under the contract, or (3) appoint an officer or employee who has any such powers or duties (General Municipal Law, §801(1]). However, Gen eral Municipal Law, §802(1)(f) creates an exception to the conflict of interest prohibi tion for contracts between the municipality and a membership corporation or other voluntary non-profit corporation or association. By virtue of this exception, a tows board member would not have a prohibited interest in a contract between the tows and the volunteer fire company which provides fire protection to a fire protectioi district in the town, where he is an officer or member of the company (1979 Oprna S Comp No. 79-445, unreported; 33 Opns St Comp 1977, p 75; 1975 Opus St Comp Nc 75-381, unreported; see Not-For-Profit Corporation Law, �1402). Nevertheless, he ha a statutory interest which, pursuant to General Municipal Law, §803(1), must b dixclosed in writing to the town board and made a part of the official record of th board. We note that the town's code of ethics should be consulted to ascertain whether i contains any provisions which are more restrictive than Article 18 and which may b pertinent. Also, although the conflict of interest statutes do not require the boar member to abstain from voting on the contract, the town board member may wish t consider abstaining from voting on issues impacting on the fire protection contracr. Recent court cases have required municipal of iciala to disqualify themselves frac voting in certain situations which, while not technically constituting violations c Article 18, suggest self-interest, partiality or economic impropriety (e.g. Zagoreos Conblin, 107 AD2d 281, 491 NYS2d 358; Conrad v Hinman, 122 Misc 2d 531, 47 NYS2d 521). *9 OPINIONS O1: TM STATE 1@6MOL.LER 126 11$8 Finally, although not mentioned in your letter of inquiry, a further issue may exist concerning the compatibility of the positions of town board member and fire company officer. Pursuant to an informal agreement with the Deptatment of Law, this Office no longer renders opinions on matters which relate to the compatibility of public offices. Therefore, we suggest that your town attorney write directly to the Department of Law if you wish to &eek an opinion on this issue. November 25, 1986 Suzanne Yaple, Town Supervisor Town of Caroline Opn No. 86-79 TOWN CLERK—Deputy(manner of compensating) TOWN LAW, H 27(1), 30(10); MUNIMPA1L HOME RULE LAW, 3 10(1)(ii)(d)(3): A town may adopt a local law providing that Its deputy clerk will be paid on an hourly or per diem basis only in those instances where the deputy actually serves in the stead of the town clerk. You have inquired about the manner in which the town board may compensate the deputy town clerk for service performed during a three week period while the town clerk was on vacation. You have informed us that the deputy clerk does not work in the clerk's office during the year; that the three week period was the first time she has performed active service; and that the annual budget does not include an appropria- tion for the office of deputy town clerk. Section 30(10) of the Town Law, pertaining to the office of deputy town cleric, states that"[alny such deputy shall serve without compensation from the town,unless other- wise provided by the town board." The payment of compenuation to town off-iters and employees is governed by section 27(1) of the Town Law which provides, in part, as follows: "1. The town board shall ft, from time to time, the salaries of all officers and employees of said town, whether elected or appointed, and determine when the same shell be payable. " * +" Section 27 further requires that town officers and employees be compensated by an- nual salary except that laborers, clerical assieta.nta and stenographers may be compen- sated on an hourly or daily basis(subdivision [11)and police officers,special policemen and constables of a town without an establiahed police department may be paid by the week, day or hour (Subdivision 121). A town may, however, adopt a local law to super- sede Town Law, §27(1) and authorize the compensation of an appointive town officer in a manner other than by annual salary(1980 Opens St Comp No. 80-356, p 108; 1979 Opns St Comp No. 79.856, p 192). Thus, pursuant to "Town Law, i 27, a town board S°hich chooses to wmpensate its deputy town clerk must do so by the payment of an annual salary unless it has adopted a local law providing for a different manner of compensation (eg., weekly, daily or hourly). :'9e note that the fare that the deputy town' clerk for your tovm serves only in the absence of the town clerk would not preclude the town board from establishing an annual e-alary for the office of deputy clerk• (see 1951 Opns St Comp No. 81-371, p 408)• Of course, any nQlury f sed by the board for that office wou13 presumably reflect the nature and extent of the duties exported to be performed. -Uternatively, as noted above, if the town board wishes to pay the deputy clerk only in those instances where 10:01 NYS OSC ALBANY p r ` � Y•M- TOWN jAws §§64(6)0 221 f OMMAL MUNICIPAL LAW X103: A town maY contract for the male and delivery of recyclshe newspaper to a private rsoyaling firm.

There was a representative from Gershow present at the opening. At 11 :10 A.M. a lady representing P.K. Metals appeared, who said she had been lost within the Town Hall for the past 10 minutes, and she was very annoyed when she found the bid opening was over. She had a bid for each category. I refused to accept her bid for tin and aluminum cans. It would have been illegal to accept it after the opening was concluded. However, since we had not received bids for plastic, glass, and cardboard, I accepted those bids and opened them at that time. I just thought you should be made aware of all this should anyone have any questions. cc: J. Bunchuck P.S. Please advise what action you wish me to take with respect to resolutions to accept any of the bids. Thank you.
