S5198-2011 Memo
BILL NUMBER:S5198 TITLE OF BILL: An act to repeal certain provisions of the public authorities law relating to certain authorities PURPOSE: This bill would repeal the statutory authorization for certain public authorities that have ceased operations, have dissolved by operation of law or were never established, and would vest their records, property, rights, titles and interest, and ail obligations and liabilities in the municipality in whose interest such authorities were created. SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS: This bill would repeal the statutory authorization for the following public authorities: The Long island Market Authority, the Alfred, Almond, Hornellsville Sewer Authority, the Amsterdam Parking Authority, the Monroe Regional Parking Authority, the Hudson Parking Authority, the Elmira Parking Authority, the Fulton Parking Authority, the Peekskill Parking Authority, the Port Jervis Parking Authority, the Utica Parking Authority, the Oswego Parking Authority, the City of New Rochelle Parking Authority, the City of Poughkeepsie Parking Authority, the Village of Spring Valley Parking Authority, the City of Long Beach Parking Authority, the City of North Tonawanda Parking Authority, the Johnson City Parking Authority, the Salamanca Hospital District Authority, the Salamanca Indian Lease Authority, the Long Island Job Development Authority, the Historic Rome Development Authority, the Multitown Solid Waste Management Authority, the Broome County Resource Recovery Agency, the County of Essex Solid Waste Management Authority, the Town of Brookhaven Resource Recovery Agency, the Greater Troy Area Solid Waste Management Authority, the City of Peekskill Civic Center Authority, the County of Chautauqua Sports, Recreation and Cultural Authority. JUSTIFICATION: This bill would repeal the statutory authorization for certain authorities which are either defunct or which were never ultimately established by local law. The authorities listed in this bill have been determined inactive by the New York State Authorities Budget Office, Department of Economic Development, Office of the Stale Comptroller, or Commission on Public Authority Reform, based on consultation with the affected local government. Although these authorities no longer function, their authorization continues in State Law. This bill would repeal these various sections of the Public Authorities Law to formally dissolve these authorities that are no longer actively engaged in the public purpose for which they were established. According to the Authorities Budget Office, none of these authorities has any outstanding debt or other obligations. This bill would thereby seek to advance the State's effort to maintain an accurate inventory of its active authorities and repeal the laws which would authorize those which are no longer in operation. In so updating state law, this bill would more accurately reflect in law that these authorities have, as a practical matter, ceased to exist. In eliminating defunct authorities, this bill would ensure that if a local government wishes once again to use an authority for urban renewal, industrial development, parking, or other similar purpose, it must obtain new legislation at the state level authorizing such use. This bill would thus promote the State's interest in curbing the proliferation of unnecessary authorities. FISCAL IMPLICATIONS: None Noted EFFECTIVE DATE: This bill would take effect 60 days after it becomes a law.
