BILL NUMBER:A10110
Title of bill
An act to amend the executive law, in relation to the appointment of the members of the Adirondack park agency
Purpose
To allow greater input from local governments in the selection of full-time resident members to the Adirondack Park Agency.
Summary of provisions
Section 1 Amends section 803 of the executive law to state that full-time residents within the Adirondack park shall be selected from a list of not less than five such residents established and submitted by the legislative bodies of the counties within the park and the Adirondack Association of Towns and Villages. It also provides that the legislative bodies of the counties within the park and the Adirondack Association of Towns and Villages shall at all times maintain a list of not less than five full-time residents within the park who are eligible to be appointed to the agency.
Section 2 Effective date
Existing law
Currently there is no formal mechanism for selecting such members.
Justification
The Adirondack Park Agency has great regulatory authori- ty over the property owners, local governments and residents who live and work within the blue line. To insure the preservation of the natural resources of the park and the need for sustainable economies for the communities in the Park. The APA needs to partner with local governments to fully include the all perspectives of the Adirondack Park residents.
