Bill > S01383

This bill requires that any lease, license, or management agreement for New York state parks and historic sites lasting more than one year must align with the specific management or master plan for that particular park or site. If a state park or historic site does not have an existing management or master plan, any related lease, license, or management agreement cannot extend beyond one year. The purpose of this legislation is to ensure that long-term agreements for state parks and historic sites adhere to pre-established guidelines for their use and management. The bill would amend the parks, recreation, and historic preservation law by adding a new section (§ 3.10) that mandates compliance with existing planning documents. The legislation will take effect immediately and apply to new or renewed agreements on or after its effective date, providing a clear framework for how state parks and historic sites can be leased, licensed, or managed in a manner consistent with their intended purpose and preservation goals.
