Bill Summary
AN ACT to amend the general municipal law, in relation to permitting the village of Croton-on-Hudson, Westchester county, to lease certain sports field fences for advertisements
AI Summary
This bill allows the village of Croton-on-Hudson in Westchester County to lease the fences of specific sports fields (Dobbs Park, Duck Pond Park, Firefighters Memorial Field, and David J. Manes Memorial Field) to a not-for-profit organization for advertising purposes. The leases can be made annually at a nominal (very low) rent, with the specific requirement that all revenues generated from these advertising leases must be used exclusively for the maintenance and care of these same four sports fields. By creating this provision, the bill provides a innovative way for the village to generate funds for park and field upkeep through advertising, despite any existing local laws that might previously have prohibited such arrangements. The bill would take effect immediately upon passage, giving the village immediate authority to implement these advertising lease agreements.
