No. 2007-10NEW YORK STATE REGISTERVOLUME XXX, ISSUE 24June 11, 2008OPINIONS OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL2007-10Public Officers Law §§ 3, 3(1), 3(4), 3(9); Session Laws 1962 Chapter 976 § 1, 1963 Chapter 375 § 1, 1965 Chapter 865 § 1Public Officers Law § 3(9) does not pertain to the paid members of the uniformed force of the paid fire department of the City of Syracuse. They are therefore governed by Public Officers Law § 3(4). Because the charter of the City of Syracuse requires that city employees live within the city, pursuant to Public Officers Law § 3(4), persons employed in the city's paid fire department must reside within Onondaga County.
