BILL NUMBER:S5753B
Title of bill
An act to authorize the Mattituck park district, in the town of Southold, county of Suffolk, to discontinue use of certain lands as parklands and sell such lands, and to use proceeds for capital improvements to existing park facilities in the Mattituck park district
Purpose
To allow the Mattituck Park District to convey a 6533 acre parcel of land in the Town of Southold and direct that the proceeds be used for capital improvements to existing park facilities.
Summary of provisions
The bill provides the authority for the Mattituck Park District, Town of Southampton, County of Suffolk, to convey property for fair market value with the funds obtained from the sale to be used for capital improvements for the existing park facilities. The bill provides a metes and bounds description of the property to be sold.
Justification
The Mattituck Park District was created by special act (Chapter 61 of the Laws of 1924) and continued by Chapter 924 of the Laws of 1941. Among the holdings of the District is a parcel less than an acre in size (.6533 acre) on Pike Street in Mattituck acquired in 1948. The property is in the business district and is not contiguous to any other park properties. The property has always been used as a parking lot in the community and the District has maintained and borne the costs of upkeep. The park commissioners have determined that the best solution to the situation would be to convey the property to the Town of Southold for market value using the proceeds for capital improvements to enhance other park district properties. The conveyance would be subject to mandatory referendum.
