Bill > A01127

This bill amends the General Municipal Law to require county planning agencies or regional planning councils to notify military station commanders about proposed municipal planning or zoning actions that could potentially affect military installations located within 3,000 feet of the proposed action site. Specifically, when a city, town, or village in a county with a county planning agency (or within a regional planning council's jurisdiction) is considering certain types of planning or zoning actions, the planning agency must alert the commander of any nearby military station about the proposed action. This requirement aims to improve communication between local governments and military installations, allowing military leadership to be informed about potential development or changes that might impact their nearby facilities. The bill will go into effect 30 days after it becomes law, providing a standard implementation timeline for municipal governments to adjust their notification procedures.
