Bill Summary
AN ACT to amend the highway law, in relation to the rate paid by the state to a city for maintenance and repair of highways
AI Summary
This bill amends the highway law to increase the rate the state pays to cities for the maintenance and repair of highways, specifically for state interstate highways and certain public streets. The core change is that the annual payment per square yard of pavement area, which was previously a fixed amount, will now be increased each year by the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) for the New York-Northern New Jersey-Long Island region over the preceding five years, as published by the U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics. This adjustment aims to account for inflation and ensure that the state's contribution keeps pace with the rising costs of highway maintenance and repair.
