 pality, at which a price for admission or attendance is charged or is to
 be  charged,  shall  pay  the  costs  incurred by such municipality as a
 result of providing additional police  personnel,  if  any,  beyond  the
 normal  number  of  officers  who would have otherwise been on duty. The
 local law shall identify the type or types of  special  events,  exhibi-
 tions,  or  contests for which an activity's operator, conductor, promo-
 ter, or sponsor may be charged for additional police personnel  that  is
 either  requested  by  the  operator, conductor, promoter, or sponsor or
 determined to be necessary by the municipality. The local law  may  also
 provide  that:  (a) the operator, conductor, promoter, or sponsor of the
 activity shall complete such forms or applications providing the  infor-
 mation  deemed  necessary  by  the municipality to determine whether any
 additional police personnel should be scheduled for the event;  (b)  the
 local  law  shall not apply to any corporation formed under the not-for-
 profit corporation law; and (c) the operator,  conductor,  promoter,  or
 sponsor of the activity shall pay all or a portion of the estimated cost
 of additional police protection prior to the commencement of the event.
   ยง 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
