2017-S6590 (ACTIVE) - Sponsor Memo

                                 BILL NUMBER:  S6590

 TITLE OF BILL :  An act authorizing the New York state thruway
authority to convey real property to Rye Country Day School

 PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL :

To transfer certain land owned by the New York State Thruway Authority
to the not-for-profit Rye Country Day School to be used for recreation
and educational purposes as part of a public/not- for-profit
partnership between the City of Rye and the school.

 SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS :

Section 1. Sets forth the intent and purpose of the act to transfer
this surplus property to the School for the property to be used on a
shared basis by school and the city of Rye as specified in a
management and use agreement by the two entities. Section 1 notes the
long history of the City and the School in seeking recreational use of
the property since the 1980's.

Section 2. Authorizes the Thruway Authority to transfer the property,
deemed surplus by the authority, to the School for fair market value.

Section 3. The lands to be conveyed pursuant to this act are described
in this section.

Section 4. The City of Rye and Rye Country Day School shall enter into
an agreement stipulating the future use of the facilities, which shall
be executed prior to the conveyance of land authorized pursuant to
this act.

Section 5. In the event that the land described in section three of
this act shall cease to be developed as described in section one of
this act, such lands and any improvements thereon shall revert to the
Thruway Authority and the conveyance of a sum equal to the fair market
value as determined pursuant to section two of this act shall be
returned to the Rye Country Day School.

Section 6. Effective date

 JUSTIFICATION :

The City of Rye and Rye Country Day School, a not-for-profit entity
under the laws of New York State, have sought to promote uses on the
parcel consistent with community needs since the late 1980's, and have
pursued shared partnership use of the property for recreational
purposes in various forms since the 1990's including discussions with
the Thruway Authority by both entities. Such uses were included in the
2000 City of Rye Recreation Master Plan. The City and the Thruway
Authority agreed on a lease arrangement for recreation purposes in
2009 and the Thruway Authority has since determined that the property
is surplus and intends to sell the parcel.

In the fall of 2016, the City of Rye requested that the Thruway
Authority sell the parcel to the school as the best way to accomplish
the goals of the public/not-for-profit recreation partnership for the
community. Rye Country Day School has committed to build a
recreational playing field, track and field house to be used by the
not-for-profit and the public through the City of Rye on a shared
basis as specified in a management and use agreement by the city and
the school.

 PRIOR LEGISLATIVE HISTORY :

New bill.
 FISCAL IMPLICATIONS :

The Thruway Authority will receive full value for the parcel. An
independent appraisal has also been conducted.

 EFFECTIVE DATE :
This act shall take effect immediately.
