House Bill 1570 amends various sections of Chapter 158 of the Private Acts of 2002, specifically updating the roles and responsibilities of the mayor and the potential appointment of a Town administrator in the Town of Greenbrier. The bill replaces the existing language in SECTION 11 regarding the mayor's duties, clarifying that the mayor will serve as the chief executive officer, preside over board meetings, and have the authority to make temporary appointments for absent officers. Additionally, the bill modifies the mayor's salary from $400 to $1,000 per month, reflecting an increase in compensation.
Furthermore, the bill revises SECTION 28, which outlines the potential appointment of a Town administrator, detailing the administrator's responsibilities, including administering municipal business, advising the board on public service improvements, and reporting on municipal property conditions. The act stipulates that it will not affect the salary of any current officeholder until the end of their elected term and requires a two-thirds vote from the legislative body of the Town of Greenbrier for it to take effect.
