Calhoun v. Rockville Centre Housing Authority

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Dec 18, 1995
222 A.D.2d 583 (N.Y. App. Div. 1995)

Opinion

December 18, 1995

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Nassau County (Kohn, J.).


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed, with costs.

We agree with the Supreme Court that Election Law § 6-138 is inapplicable to the conduct of the election of a tenant representative to the respondent's governing board ( see, Election Law § 1-102). We note in this regard that the respondent properly exercised its statutory authority when it promulgated by-laws pertaining to the election at issue ( see, Public Housing Law § 30; see also, Matter of New York Post Corp. v Moses, 10 N.Y.2d 199, 205).

The petitioner's remaining contentions are without merit ( cf., Matter of Atkin v Onondaga County Bd. of Elections, 30 N.Y.2d 401; Moldonado v Rodriguez, 523 F. Supp. 177). Mangano, P.J., Bracken, Sullivan and Hart, JJ., concur.
