TITLE OF BILL:
An act
authorizing the transfer of certain state lands in the town of
Orangetown

PURPOSE:
To facilitate the acquisition of certain state lands located within
the town of Orangetown by the town for the purpose of ensuring that
such lands are developed in a manner consistent with the
comprehensive plan of the town.

SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS:
Section 1 grants the town of Orangetown a right of first negotiation
for all state lands located within the boundaries set forth in
section three of the act. The right will exist for until December 31,
2020. The commissioner of the office of general services is empowered
to negotiate and accept any offer as he or she deems proper. The
commissioner is further authorized to extend the period of
negotiation for an additional period.

Section 2 directs the commissioner of general services to provide the
town of Orange town with a written description of state land within
the bounds set forth in section three of the bill.

Section 3 establishes the boundaries of the area in the town of
Orangetown where state lands subject to the right of first
negotiation are located. The bounds capture the land associated with
the Rockland Psychiatric Center.

Section 4 reiterates the prohibition of certain land sales by the
state constitution.

Section 5 provides that this act shall not affect any person's
contract rights or right to sue.

Section 6 provides that land transactions authorized by this act are
subject to accurate surveys and any existing covenants, conditions,
restrictions, easements and rights-of-way.

Section 7 permits the town to waive any right conferred by this act.

JUSTIFICATION:
The Town of Orangetown has requested this legislation in order to
develop state lands at or near the Rockland psychiatric Center site.
This will benefit the community by helping to stimulate the local
economy by facilitating the development of high technology industries
and by developing low-density residential neighborhoods suitable for
the local senior citizen population.

New Bill.

FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:
Needs to be determined.
