An act to authorize the town of Union Vale, county of Dutchess, to
alienate and discontinue the use of certain parklands

 
PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL:

To authorize the Town of Union Vale to alienate a parcel of parkland in
Tymor Park for the purpose of leasing the parkland for a cell phone
tower to improve service and connectivity for residents and emergency
response services.

 
SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS:

Section 1: Authorizes the Town of Union Vale to discontinue the use of
specific parklands and lease the property to Homeland Towers at fair
market value for an initial term of ten years, with an option to extend
up to six five-year renewals.

Section 2: Conditions the authorization on the town dedicating funds
equal to or greater than the fair market value of the parklands being
discontinued towards acquiring new parklands and/or capital improvements
to existing recreational facilities.

Section 3: Describes the land to be discontinued and leased, including
Lease Area A ( approximately 5,250 square feet, or 0.120 acres) and
associated easement areas for vehicular and pedestrian access.

Section 4: Specifies that if the land ceases to be used for the purpose
authorized in the bill, the lease shall terminate and the land shall
