Bill > S04475

This bill requires the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) to enhance the transparency of its capital project data by mandating additional information be published on its capital program dashboard. Specifically, the bill expands the required reporting to include: contract numbers and associated vendors, comprehensive funding sources (specifying whether funds come from New York State, federal government, New York City, or other sources), and coding that indicates whether projects relate to accessibility or resiliency. The bill provides detailed definitions for these terms, noting that accessibility refers to projects complying with the Americans with Disabilities Act, while resiliency is defined according to the MTA's twenty-year needs assessment. The bill also requires more granular budget information, including original and amended budgets, and a detailed project delivery schedule with start and completion dates. By mandating these disclosures, the bill aims to provide greater public insight into the MTA's capital projects, their funding, and their broader strategic objectives.
