S410-2013 Memo
BILL NUMBER:S410 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the general municipal law, in relation to taking of billboards PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL: This bill would simplify current law regarding the removal of billboards in areas other than industrial or manufacturing zones. SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS: The first section amends the general municipal law to extend the eminent domain law to the removal of billboards in areas other than industrial and manufacturing zones. Furthermore, provisions relating to amortization schedules for the removal of billboards in areas other than industrial and manufacturing zones are removed. Section two sets the effective date. JUSTIFICATION: The current scheme is far too complex to work effectively. Furthermore, this simplified scheme would achieve results similar to existing law and reduce costs to both the billboard industry and municipalities. PRIOR LEGISLATIVE HISTORY: 2011/12: S.1361/A.729 - Passed Senate 2009/10: S.4624/A.2385 - Died in Committee FISCAL IMPLICATIONS: None. EFFECTIVE DATE: This act shall take effect immediately.
