Title of bill

An act to authorize the commissioner of transportation to alienate and convey certain land to the Community Ambulance Company, Inc.

Purpose

Authorizes the Commissioner of Transportation to alienate and convey certain land to the Community Ambulance Company, Inc.

Summary of provisions

Section 1 of the bill authorizes the Commissioner of Transportation to alienate and convey property on Sunrise Highway in the Hamlet of Sayville, Long Island, to the Community Ambulance Company, Inc. for the purposes of expanding their operation of a not-for-profit ambulance company.

§ 2 stipulates that the authorization contained in section 1 of the bill shall take effect only upon the condition that Community Ambulance Company, Inc. pays the fair market value of the property being alienated by this act.

§ 3 specifies the boundaries of the parcel of land authorized to be alienated and conveyed to Community Ambulance Company, Inc. pursuant to this act.

§ 4 subjects such conveyance of land to a right of first refusal in favor of the State should Community Ambulance Company, Inc. attempt to sell such property or ceases to use such property for the purposes described in section 1 of this act.

§ 5 provides the effective date.

Justification

The New York State Department of Transportation owns this parcel of land and is willing to declare it as surplus. Under current law, when there is excess state property that is no longer needed the state must sell it at public auction. This legislation is necessary to convey this parcel of land to the Community Ambulance Company in order that they may move to a larger headquarters.
