BILL NUMBER: S6925

SPONSOR: MAY
 
TITLE OF BILL:

An act to repeal section 5 of chapter 254 of the laws of 2013 relating
to authorizing the New York state thruway authority to convey certain
land located in the village of Canastota, county of Madison relating to
the use and development of such land; and to release a reverter and
easement relating to such land

 
PURPOSE:

way authority to the International Boxing Hall of Fame; repealer.

 
SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS:

Section 1: Provides that Section 5 of Chapter 254 of the laws of 2013 is
repealed.

Section 2: Provides that the New York State Thruway Authority must make
a permanent transfer over the lands described to the International
Boxing Hall of Fame.

Section 3: The New York State Thruway Authority is directed to release,
extinguish and relinquish all rights and powers over the lands described
to the International Boxing Hall of Fame.

Prior legislation (S3859-A/A7072-A) that was signed and Chaptered in
2013 provided that lands conveyed to the International Boxing Hall of

museum, and also required that development of this project had to be
completed by 2018, which was later extended to 2023 by legislation that

was met, the land would revert back to the people of the state of New
York under the jurisdiction of the New York State Thruway Authority.
