S7664 - Sponsor Memo

 BILL NUMBER:  S7664

 TITLE OF BILL :
An act in relation to deeming the objects or purposes for which
certain bonds were issued by the city of Buffalo to be for site
improvements adjacent to All High Stadium in said city and authorizing
the expenditure of the proceeds from such bonds for such objects or
purposes


 PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL :
The purpose of the bill is to deem the objects or purposes for which
certain bonds were issued by the city of Buffalo in the county of Erie
(the "city"), to be for site improvements adjacent to All High Stadium
and to authorize the City to expend a $598,000 portion of the proceeds
of certain bonds issued on April 26, 2006 for such purposes,

 SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS :
This bill would deem the objects or purposes for which certain bonds
were issued by the city on April 26, 2006 to be for site improvements
adjacent to All High Stadium in the City, to expand parking facilities
and create a buffer zone between the parking facilities and adjacent
residences, and to authorize the City to expend a $598,000 portion of
the proceeds from the issuance of such bonds for such objects or
purposes.

 JUSTIFICATION :
The Common Council of the City adopted on February 7, 2006 a bond
resolution authorizing the issuance of City bonds in the amount of
$1,000,000 to finance the cost of land acquisition to expand the
existing site for P.S.307, East High School at 820 Northhampton
Street, in the City, including parcels to such bond resolution,
together with site acquisition and infrastructure improvements. The
city subsequently issued on April 26, 2006 $995,196.16 aggregate
principal amount of bonds for such purposes. Expenditure of a portion
of the proceeds from such bonds was not needed to finance such cost of
land acquisition because the City acquired certain of such parcels
through in rem foreclosures and auctions and transferred jurisdiction
for school purposes to the Buffalo City School District. The City
desires to expend a $598,000 portion of the proceeds of such bond
proceeds for site improvements adjacent to All High Stadium in the
City to expand parking facilities and create a buffer zone between the
parking facilities and adjacent residences.

 PRIOR LEGISLATIVE HISTORY :
This is new legislation.

 FISCAL IMPLICATIONS :
None to the State. The portion of the bonds for this purpose, were
non-aidable and would continue to be non-aidable.

 EFFECTIVE DATE :
This act shall take effect immediately.
