Bill > A08866

This bill amends the New York Public Authorities Law to authorize the Dormitory Authority of the State of New York (DASNY) to provide construction and development services specifically for Erie County. The bill empowers DASNY to assist Erie County with a wide range of infrastructure projects, including constructing, reconstructing, developing, improving, equipping, and expanding public areas, facilities, and related ancillary projects. By adding language to two sections of the public authorities law (sections 1676 and 1680), the bill creates a legal framework that enables DASNY to support Erie County's infrastructure development efforts. The bill would take effect immediately upon passage, giving the Dormitory Authority the ability to collaborate with Erie County on various public infrastructure and facility improvement initiatives. This type of legislative amendment is typically used to provide specific governmental entities with expanded capabilities to support local infrastructure and development needs.
