"With respect to governmental subdivisions, additional service is to be made only when the respondent is a former member of a body of such a subdivision. See CPLR 7802(b). The reason for notice to the governmental entity in such cases is that a former official may be less than zealous in defending the public interest. See Practice Commentaries on CPLR 7802, at C7802:2, supra. CPLR 7804(c) refers the reader to CPLR 311 for the method of service on the governmental subdivision."
