Mark Bonilla of Bellmore, the former Town of Hempstead clerk, was sentenced to community service and a fine on Monday.
Bonilla was found guilty of one count of official misconduct stemming from sexual harassment allegations, which were investigated by town officials last year, on July 25. Justice Sharon Gianelli decided the case alone because Bonilla waived his right to a jury trial. He faced up to one year in jail prior to sentencing.
