Bill > S06685

This bill amends the New York City Health and Hospitals Corporation Act to require the corporation to follow the city's Uniform Land Use Review Procedure (ULURP) when disposing of land or buildings. Previously, the corporation was only required to hold a public hearing and obtain consent from the board of estimate before selling or transferring real property. The new legislation mandates that any sale, lease, or transfer of real property, including health facilities, must go through the ULURP, which is a standardized process in New York City for reviewing and approving land use actions. This change ensures greater transparency and public input in the corporation's real estate transactions, regardless of whether the property was originally acquired at the city's expense. The bill will take effect 180 days after becoming law, giving the corporation time to adjust to the new requirements and implement the necessary procedural changes.
