BILL NUMBER:S7318

Title of bill

An act to amend the public authorities law, in relation to authorizing the New York state olympic regional development authority to operate and manage ski and recreational facilities on lands in the vicinity of the Belleayre Mountain ski center, in Ulster and Delaware counties

Purpose

The legislation, if enacted, would authorize the Olympic Regional Development Authority (ORDA) to operate and manage ski and recreational facilities located on properties in the vicinity of the Belleayre Mountain ski center.

Summary of provisions

Section 2614 of the Public Authorities Law is amended to allow for this contractual authority.

Existing law

No current legislative authority exists for this public-private partnership, however, it is important to note that in 2000, Chapter 192 was enacted to allow ORDA to operate such facilities on the lands of the Town of Johnsburgh.

Justification

Authorizing ORDA to operate and manage ski and recreational facilities located on properties in the vicinity of the Belleayre Mountain ski center will considerably enhance recreational opportunities for local residents and the general public, and at the same time will contribute to Belleayre Mountain ski center's effectiveness as an economic engine for the central Catskills region.
