BILL NUMBER:S5754B
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 in the County of Suffolk to discontinue as parkland the use of a parcel located on Love Lane in Mattituck and authorize the sale of such property.
Summary of provisions
The bill provides the authority for the Mattituck Park District, Town of Southold, County of Suffolk, to convey property for fair market value and 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. In 1968, the District acquired a 1.1 acre of land, the major portion of which has been used as access to a boat ramp. A 33 foot by 115 foot strip of land (.087 acre) which came with the parcel is not being used or needed for the boat launch and is presently being used for parking by an adjacent neighbor. The District has determined that it would be in the District's best interest to sell the strip of property to an adjoining land owner for fair market value and use the proceeds for capital improvements for existing park properties. The sale of the property is subject to mandatory referendum pursuant to the powers set forth in the enabling statue.
