Article 50-7

Article 50-7. Designation by Chairperson.

The Chairperson of the Zoning Board of Appeals shall designate the alternate member to substitute for a member when such member does not participate for reasons set forth in Article 50-4 above. When so designated, the alternate member shall possess all of the powers and responsibilities of such member of the Board. Such designation shall be entered into the minutes of the initial Zoning Board of Appeals meeting at which the substitution is made. In the case of a substitution for a member when such member is unable to participate because of a conflict of interest on an application or matter before the Board, such designation shall carry forward until such matter is finally resolved for that matter. In all other cases, the designation shall take place during the meeting or meetings at which any member is absent.
