 AN ACT in relation to issuing the  village  of  Nelliston  incorporation
   documents
 
   THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
 BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

   Section 1.  Legislative findings. It is hereby  found  and  determined
 that  the village of Nelliston in the town of Palatine, Montgomery coun-
 ty, was incorporated in 1878 under the authority granted by chapter  291
 of the laws of 1870. It is further determined that the village of Nelli-
 ston  was  not required to submit incorporation documents to the depart-
 ment of state as there was no statutory requirement for certificates  of
 incorporation  to  be  filed  with  the  department  at that time. It is
 further determined that the  village  of  Nelliston  lost  its  original
 incorporation  documents in a fire in the late 1800s and no other incor-
 poration document exists.
   § 2. The village of Nelliston is  to  be  recognized  as  incorporated
 since  1878  under  the  authority granted by chapter 291 of the laws of
 1870. The secretary of state shall issue to the village of  Nelliston  a
 certificate  of  incorporation  verifying  the  status of the village of
 Nelliston as incorporated as a village since 1878. The reissued  certif-
 icate  of  incorporation  is  to  be filed and kept by the department of
 state, as required by section 2-234 of the village law.
   § 3. This act shall take effect immediately.
 
 
 
  EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                       [ ] is old law to be omitted.
