Town of Cherry Valley

Here's the latest about a moratorium designed to thwart a wind turbine project. In something of a suprise move the Town Board rejected the moratorium. What stuck out to me is that the Town Board in Cherry Valley has only three members. Most towns have five, of course. Section 160-a of the Town Law permits a town board to adopt a local law subject to permissive referendum reducing the number of boardmembers, but in no case can it be fewer than a supervisor and two councilmen, as in Cherry Valley. They must have adopted such a law. I hope.
