2011-S3488 (ACTIVE) - Summary

Authorizes town of Webster, Monroe County, to discontinue the use of certain lands as parklands.

2011-S3488 (ACTIVE) - Sponsor Memo

                                BILL NUMBER:S3488

TITLE OF BILL:
An act
to authorize the town of Webster, in the county of Monroe, to
discontinue the
use of certain lands as parklands

PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL:
This bill would authorize the town of
Webster to discontinue certain land as parklands; to sell and convey
the land for commercial purposes; and in exchange for the conveyance,
dedicate other land within the town - donated to the town and being
of an equal or greater fair market value than the land conveyed - as
additional parkland.

SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS:
Section 1 authorizes the town of
Webster to discontinue as parklands and alienate, sell and convey the
lands described in section three of this act for the purpose of
enabling an adjacent shopping plaza to expand and construct
additional parking and, in exchange for the conveyance, dedicate as
parklands the lands described in section four of this act.

Section 2 sets forth the condition that the lands described in section
four of this act must be of equal or greater fair market value than

the lands being alienated, and that the lands described in section
four must be donated to the town of Webster and must be dedicated as
additional parklands.

Section 3 defines the land to be alienated, sold and conveyed, as set
forth in section one of this act.

Section 4 defines the land to be donated to and dedicated by the town
of Webster as parkland.

Section 5 states that in the event that the replacement parklands to
be dedicated by the town of Webster are not of equal or greater fair
market value and usefulness as parklands than the parklands to be
discontinued, the town of Webster shall dedicate the difference of
fair market value and/or usefulness of the lands to be alienated and
the lands to be dedicated for the acquisition of additional parklands
and/or capital improvements to existing park and recreational
facilities.

Section 6 states that the discontinuance and conveyance of parklands
authorized by the provisions of this act shall not occur until the
town of Webster has complied with any federal requirements pertaining
to the alienation or conversion of parklands, including satisfying
the secretary of the interior that the alienation or conversion
complies with all conditions which the secretary of the interior

deems necessary to assure the substitution of other lands shall be
equivalent in fair market value and recreational usefulness to the
lands being alienated or converted.

Section 7 sets the effective date.

JUSTIFICATION:
This legislation is the result of a home rule request
by the town of Webster, which would like to exchange 1.325 acres of
isolated parkland adjacent to a shopping plaza to gain 2.65 acres of
land adjacent to existing parkland, allowing it to expand a more
usable park.

The 1.325 acres of Webster Park Land was given to the town years ago
by the state as surplus land after the Route 104 project was
complete, and is adjacent to an existing shopping plaza. At the
current time, the town has an easement on private property behind the
plaza, which is used as an entrance to the town hall. The plaza owner
has requested that the easement be rescinded so that he can enlarge
the plaza with more tenants - which will require more parking spaces
thus resulting in more economic development for the town - and that
he be allowed to purchase the 1.325 acres for the required parking
spaces.

In return for the 1.325 acres of park land, the plaza owner will build
the town a new access road for the town hall, and will purchase 2.65
acres of land next to an existing town park, which will enhance the
park surrounding the town's new baseball stadium and will provide
more usable park space for use by town residents.

The town views this as a means to enhance its tax base, create more
employment opportunities and expand its usable park space.

PRIOR LEGISLATIVE HISTORY:
S.8108 of 2009/2010

FISCAL IMPLICATIONS FOR STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS:
No fiscal impact
to the state. As part of the exchange, the town of Webster will
receive land of an equal or greater value than that which they are
selling, and as a result, will benefit economically from the exchange.

EFFECTIVE DATE:
This act shall take effect immediately.
