Article 2-B - State and Local Natural and Man-Made Disaster Preparedness
23-C - Consistency Among Local Disaster Preparedness Plans.

§ 23-c. Consistency among local disaster preparedness plans. 1. The
local disaster preparedness plans for each county, city, town, or
village shall be so developed that no part of the local disaster
preparedness plan of any county or any city, town, or village within
such county conflicts with any part of the local disaster preparedness
plan of any of the other said entities within such county or such county
itself. In the event of any such conflict, such conflict shall be
resolved by such county. The provisions of this subdivision shall not
apply to a city wholly containing more than one county or to any county
wholly contained within any such city.

2. In the event that any part of the local disaster preparedness plan
of any county or any city, town, or village within such county conflicts
with any part of the local disaster preparedness plan of any other
county or any city, town, or village within any such other county, such
conflict shall be resolved by the state emergency management office, as
defined in paragraph (e) of subdivision one of section twenty-nine-e of
this article. The provisions of this subdivision shall not apply to any
county wholly contained within a city wholly containing more than one
county. Any city wholly containing more than one county shall be subject
to the provisions of this subdivision as if it were a county.

3. Said state emergency management office is hereby authorized and
directed to promulgate any rules or regulations or take any other
measures necessary to effectuate the provisions of this section.
