Bill > A00613

This bill appropriates $2 million from the state treasury's general fund to the New York State Department of Transportation specifically for capital improvements to the Kew Gardens, Lefferts Boulevard bridge. The funding is designated to support comprehensive structural repairs, with a particular focus on full remediation of the bridge's outside wall. The funds will be disbursed through a standard government process requiring certification and approval by the state comptroller in consultation with the transportation commissioner, and the appropriation is effective immediately upon passage. The bill ensures that the full $2 million may be used, but also allows for a lesser amount if the full sum is not required to complete the necessary bridge repairs.
