AI Summary

This bill establishes the New York State Volunteer Fire Protection Emergency Reimbursement Account, which will be used to reimburse volunteer fire companies, departments, districts, and non-profit emergency medical services for expenses incurred related to procuring personal protective equipment (PPE) as well as for lost revenues due to municipal budget cuts or restrictions on public revenue-raising events during the COVID-19 state of emergency declared by the Governor. The bill amends the state tax law to direct a portion of the revenues collected under Section 186-f into this new account, and provides details on the eligibility and process for these reimbursements. The provisions of the bill are set to expire one year after the expiration of the Governor's declared emergency.
