  201.  Reorganization  of departments. When authorized by local law,
  and  in  accordance  with  its  provisions,  the  county  executive  may
  establish  additional  departments  or  change the functions of existing
  departments under his jurisdiction, provide for their  organization  and
  maintenance and assign to each the functions it shall perform, including
  functions  exercised  at  the  time  of such reorganization by any other
  administrative departments, offices or agencies of the county not headed
  by elective officers. Any such department, office or agency, when all of
  its functions are so assigned, may be abolished  by  local  law.  County
  functions  not  expressly  assigned by this chapter shall be distributed
  among departments as may be provided by local law.
