Bill > A05226

This bill amends the New York State highway law to designate two specific streets in the city of Newburgh as state highways. These streets are Lake Street, which will run generally north-easterly from the northern line of the town of New Windsor through the city of Newburgh to state route 17K, and Broadway, which will run generally easterly from the eastern line of the town of Newburgh through the city of Newburgh to Colden Street. By adding these street segments to the existing list of state highways in Orange County, the bill effectively transfers responsibility for these road segments from local to state jurisdiction, which typically means the state will now be responsible for maintenance, repairs, and improvements. The bill would take effect immediately upon passage, allowing for prompt implementation of the highway designation changes.
