Bill Summary

AN ACT to amend the parks, recreation and historic preservation law, in relation to requiring all leases, licenses and management agreements relating to state parks and historic sites to comply with the park's or historic site's master plan

AI Summary

This bill requires the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation to ensure that any lease, license, or management agreement for a state park or historic site that lasts more than one year must align with the existing management or master plan for that specific park or site. If a park or historic site does not have a current management or master plan in place, any lease, license, or management agreement for that location can only be for a maximum of one year. This legislation aims to ensure that long-term agreements for state parks and historic sites are consistent with the strategic goals and preservation guidelines outlined in their respective management plans. The bill will take effect immediately and apply to any leases, licenses, or management agreements entered into or renewed on or after its effective date, providing a framework for more strategic and cohesive management of New York's state parks and historic sites.
