Purpose
To alienate and convey certain parcels of land in the town of Cortlandville.
Summary of provisions
Section 1 gives home rule authorization to the town of Cortlandville, county of Cortland, to discontinue, alienate and convey certain parcels of park land.

Section 3 identifies the parcels of land to be alienated and conveyed. Section 4 identifies the lands to be acquired for park purposes. Section 5 specifies that the lands to be alienated shall be in continuous use until the lands to be acquired have been developed and are open to the public. Section 6 requires the satisfaction of applicable federal requirements pertaining to the conversion of park lands before conveying such lands. Section 7 provides the effective date.
