Abolishment of the coroner office in all New York counties except Lewis and Madison.

The bill proposes to amend the county law by abolishing the office of coroner in all counties of New York, except Lewis and Madison counties. The change will be enacted by local law, which must be passed at least 150 days before a general election and may be subject to a permissive referendum. The terms of existing coroners will end upon the appointment and qualification of a medical examiner. This act will take effect on the first of January following its enactment.
