BILL NUMBER:S6405A
Title of bill
An act to repeal title 12 of article 15-B of the general municipal law relating to the Tarrytown urban renewal agency
Purpose or general idea of bill
To eliminate the now defunct Tarrytown Urban Renewal Agency from statute.
Summary of specific provisions
Section One of the bill repeals Title 12 of article 15-B of the General Municipal law, as added by Chapter 266 of the laws of 1964.
Section Two prescribes that any existing records, property, rights, and interests of the agency shall vet in and be possessed by the village of Tarrytown.
Section Three is the effective date.
Justification
This bill would advance the State's effort to maintain an accurate inventory of authorities. It would update state law to reflect the fact that certain authorities have, as a practical matter, ceased to exist. By eliminating defunct authorities, this bill would ensure that if a local government wishes once again to use an authority for urban renewal, industrial development, parking, or other similar purpose, it must obtain new legislation at the state level authorizing such use. This bill would thus promote the State's interest in curbing the proliferation of unnecessary authorities.
Fiscal implications
None.
