BILL NUMBER:A6361C
Title of bill
An act to amend the public authorities law, in relation to the construction and financing of facilities by the dormitory authority for the Alliance of Long Island Agencies, Inc.
Purpose
To authorize the NYS Dormitory Authority to provide Financing for construction and reconstruction of educational, administrative, day program and residential facilities in the state by the Alliance for Long Island Agencies, Inc.
Summary of provisions
The bill amends section 1676 subdivision 2 paragraph (b) and section 1680 subdivision 1 of the public authority law to include the Alliance of Long Island Agencies, Inc. among those similarly situated groups who are eligible to receive Dormitory Authority funding.
It provides for an immediate effective date.
Existing law
Other similarly situated not-for-profit corporations are listed as designated agencies to receive Dormitory Authority funding.
Justification
The relatively small size of community agencies providing services to people with disabilities has limited the agencies' access to financing or, when financing has been available, has made it very expensive.
Allowing the Alliance of Long Island Agencies, Inc. not-for-profit corporations, to be included on the list of designated agencies to receive dormitory authority funding will enable such service providers to join together to achieve economies of scale and lower rates of financing.
By blending together agencies of diverse size and location who offer substantially similar services, the agencies will be able to acquire financing for much needed expansion, renovation and construction at more economical rates. Old debt incurred at high rates by the individual agencies can be consolidated and replaced by refinancing at much more favorable rates through Dormitory Authority support.
