Description

The focus of this appeal is the Town of Babylons legislative reaction to the burgeoning problem of illegal two-family houses. At issue is a judgment (106 Misc. 2d 129) which (1) annulled a determination of the towns Two-Family Review Board granting the intervenor a special permit to convert his one-family home into a two, and (2) struck down the local law which created and empowered the review board to legalize past two-family house conversions and to authorize them in the future. Prominent in our dispositive reasoning is an obscure amendment to the Municipal Home Rule Law which -- with a few specified exceptions -- permits towns to supersede or amend the Town Law when enacting local laws.
