Title of bill
An act to amend chapter 267 of the laws of 1988, amending the parks, recreation and historic preservation law relating to the lease of state property included in the Glimmerglass state park, in relation to extending the expiration and repeal of the provisions thereof
Purpose
To extend chapter 267 of the laws of 1988 for an additional thirty (30) years beyond its current expiration date of January 1, 2017
Summary of provisions
Section one outlines the purpose of amending, and does amend, section 2 of chapter 267 of the laws of 1988. Section two provides for a revised expiration date of January 1, 2047.
Section three provides the new effective date of the bill.

Justification
The state Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation (OPR) has enjoyed a beneficial relationship with the Friends of Hyde Hall, a nonprofit organization dedicated to the preservation and public enjoyment of Hyde Hall, a historic estate located on the grounds of the Glimmerglass State Park. Friends of Hyde Hall operates the historic site at Hyde Hall and has raised funds to restore the hall to its historic and original condition, making the site open to the public for cultural programs, visits, tours, and public events. Extension of the lease, so that the Friends of Hyde Hall can continue to operate and raise funds for this state historic treasure, is the perfect example of a state-private partnership and is in the interests of the state of New York, our history, and our heritage.
