BILL NUMBER:S3351A REVISED 05/04/09
Title of bill
An act to amend the parks, recreation and historic preservation law, in relation to the membership of the Saratoga-Capital district regional park, recreation and historic preservation commission
Purpose of the bill
The purpose of this bill is to reduce the number of members comprising the Saratoga-Capital District Regional Park, Recreation and Historic Preservation Commission (Saratoga-Capital District Commission).
Summary of provisions
Section 1 of this bill amends Parks, Recreation and Historic Preserva- tion Law (PRHPL) § 7.05(2)(f) to reduce the number of members of the Saratoga Commission from fourteen to nine, and require six of such members to be residents of the eleventh park region.
Section 2 of this bill provides that the bill will take effect on the ninetieth day after it becomes a law.
Existing law
PRHPL § 7.05(2)(f) provides that the Saratoga-Capital District Commis- sion shall have fourteen members, seven of whom must be residents of the eleventh park region.
Prior legislative history
This is a new bill.
Statement in support
With the exception of the Saratoga-Capital District Region, each of the eleven state park regions has a commission made up of seven or nine members. The Saratoga-Capital District Commission has fourteen members, seven of whom are required to live within the eleventh park region. The large number of members has made it difficult to gather a quorum for meetings. This bill will allow the Saratoga-Capital District Commission to function more efficiently and effectively.
Budget implications
This bill may result in some modest fiscal savings to the State from reduced reimbursements for travel and other expenses incurred by members of the Saratoga-Capital District Commission.
Effective date
This bill would be effective on the ninetieth day after it becomes a law.
