AI Summary

This bill provides an exemption from requirements for the alienation (or sale/disposal) of parkland for renewable energy generating projects with a generating capacity not exceeding two megawatts (MW), as long as the project is located above real property currently used for vehicle parking. The exemption applies to parkland that is not located within the Adirondack or Catskill parks. The bill is intended to facilitate the development of small-scale renewable energy projects on existing parking infrastructure, without the typical restrictions on alienating parkland.
