Bill > A06424

This bill amends the New York State Highway Law to increase the reimbursement rate for cities when the state constructs highways within their boundaries. Specifically, the legislation raises the per-square-yard reimbursement rate from 85 cents to $1.80 for pavement areas that are included in the state highway system. This change means that when the state builds or improves highways within a city's limits, the city will now receive a higher compensation rate for the pavement area used. The bill appears to be a straightforward update to existing law that will provide more financial support to cities for state highway construction projects. The amendment takes effect immediately upon enactment, which means cities can benefit from the increased reimbursement rate right away.
