                                BILL NUMBER:S5913

TITLE OF BILL:  An act to amend chapter 387 of the laws of 2013
relating to including the trustees of the Freeholders and Commonalty
of the town of Southampton, trustees of the Freeholders and Commonalty
of the town of East Hampton and the trustees of Freeholders and
Commonalty of the town of Southold as municipal corporations for the
purposes of section 72-h of the general municipal law, in relation to
extending the expiration of such provisions

PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL: This bill would extend until July 31,
2017 the inclusion of the trustees of the Freeholders and Commonalty
of the Town of Southampton, the trustees of the Freeholders and
Commonalty of the Town of East Hampton and the trustees of the
Freeholders and Commonalty of the Town of Southold as municipal
corporations for the purposes of Section 72-h of the General Municipal
Law.

SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS: Section 1 of the bill would extend
until July 31, 2017 the inclusion of the trustees of the Freeholders
and Commonalty of the Town of Southampton, the trustees of the
Freeholders and Commonalty of the Town of East Hampton and the
trustees of the Freeholders and Commonalty of the Town of Southold as
municipal corporations for the purposes of Section 72-h of the General
Municipal Law.

Section 2 is the effective date.

JUSTIFICATION: Typically, the County of Suffolk transfers land
pursuant to Section 72-h of the General Municipal Law. This section
states that land transfers only occur to municipal corporations, which
through definition are limited to county, town and village government.
While not a taxing jurisdiction, the trustees of the Freeholders and
Commonalty of the Town of Southampton, the trustees of the Freeholders
and Commonalty of the Town of East Hampton and the trustees of the
Freeholders and Commonalty of the Town of Southold are clearly a form
of local elected government and would greatly benefit from the ability
to receive land at no cost from the County to be placed under their
stewardship. This legislation would provide that for the purposes of
Section 72-h of the General Municipal Law, the term "municipal
corporation" shall include the trustees of the Freeholders and
Commonalty of the Town of Southampton, the trustees of the Freeholders
and Commonalty of the Town of East Hampton and the trustees of the
Freeholders and Commonalty of the Town of Southold.

PRIOR LEGISLATIVE HISTORY: A.1221 (Thiele) - Chapter 387 of the Laws
of 2013

FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:

None to the State

EFFECTIVE DATE: This act shall take effect immediately; provided that
Section one of this act shall expire and be deemed repealed July 31,
2017
