Adopted
Local Laws |
| |
Local Laws are rules and
regulations passed by the Rockland County Legislature and signed by the
County Executive (or, should the Executive veto the law, overridden by a
2/3 vote of the full Legislature). Local Laws regulate matters that your
County government has the authority by its charter to handle and the
Legislature has determined to be important enough to have a law,
providing that the federal or state governments have not pre-empted the
subject matter by their laws. Generally, these laws relate to the health
and safety of our County’s residents, but can also include
governmental salaries, County taxes, governmental regulations,
establishing commissions, regulating contractors, land preservation, and
other functions that the County Charter empowers the County government
to handle.
Please note that Local Laws do not go into effect immediately. Rather,
each law may have its own "effective date" stated in it. This
effective date usually appears at the end of the Local Law. Local Laws
cannot go into effect until they are filed with the New York State
Secretary of State. Therefore, even though a local law is passed, it may
still not be in effect until some time later.
