BILL NUMBER: S4416

SPONSOR: KAPLAN
 
TITLE OF BILL:  An act to require the empire state development corpo-
ration to create a plan regarding multi-use trails

 
PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL:

AN ACT to require the empire state development corporation to create a
plan regarding multi-use trails

 
SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: Section 1:

(a) Defines a multi-use trail as "an off-street linear facility for
recreation and transportation, paved or unpaved, designated to serve
multiple types of users, including, but not limited to, bicyclists,
pedestrians, in-line skaters, joggers, cross-country skiers or equestri-
ans"

(b) Directs the Empire State Development Corporation (EDC) to create a
plan for a comprehensive statewide system of multi-use trails.

Describes drafting, review and agency input. Identifies specific parame-
ters of the plan.

(c) Describes the role of other agency stakeholders.

 
JUSTIFICATION:

Multi-use trails have been observed to have an important economic impact
on the communities around them, with the Erie Canalway Trail alone
having an estimated impact of $253 million in sales, 3,440 jobs, $78
million in labor income, and $28.5 million in tax revenue.  This effect
stands to be multiplied in New York State, with the impending
construction of the new Empire State Trail. Additionally, New York has
more than 1,000 miles of regional and local trails networks found all
across the state. While these trails enhance their communities, their
economic impact is stymied by a lack of long term planning.

In order to advance trail development to their full potential, and maxi-
mize the various benefits of trails, New York needs a coordinated strat-
egy for linking existing and potential individual trail corridors to
create a statewide, interconnected system. With thousands of miles of
scenic rivers and streams, lakeshores, canals, historic roadways, and
abandoned railroad corridors, plus hundreds of appealing cities, towns
and villages,òopportunities to create additional trails and connections
between existing trails abound in every region of the state.

A 10-year plan to build out the connectivity of regional trail networks
will enhance the economic impact of existing trails and the new Empire
State Trail and will create more opportunities for outdoor recreation,
tourism and health benefits in every corner of New York.

   (b) The empire state development corporation shall create a plan for a
 comprehensive  statewide  system  of  multi-use  trails  consisting of a
 network of primary corridors linked to  and  enhanced  by  regional  and
 local multi-use trails. The draft plan shall be completed one year after
 this  act  becomes a law. The empire state development corporation shall
 consult concurrently with representatives  from  the  office  of  parks,

 trail  uses  to  be addressed in the plan; goals for geographic distrib-
 ution; goals for universal accessibility;  and  general  goals  for  new
 trail acquisition and development.
   (ii)  A  Geographic  Information  System  (GIS)  inventory of existing
 multi-use trails across the state, as well as planned multi-use  trails,
 or  undeveloped  corridors  under  consideration  for  future  multi-use
 trails.
   (iii) Identification of new multi-use trail  opportunities  including,
 but  not  limited  to, transportation (rail, canal, trolley) corridors -
 existing, abandoned or under consideration to be  abandoned;  under-uti-
 lized  or  closed roads; utility corridors and natural corridors such as
 waterways and waterfronts.
   (iv) A comprehensive set of multi-use trail recommendations, including
 but not limited to acquisition and  development  priorities;  guidelines
 for  design  and  maintenance  of  different  "tier" (primary, regional,
 local) multi-use trails; guidelines for wayfinding, marketing and inter-
 pretive  signs  and  informational  resources,  such  as  statewide  and
 regional  maps  of existing multi-use trails, to promote the use of such
 trails and their coordination with other tourism  opportunities  in  New
 York state.
   (v) Recommendations for funding the acquisition, construction, mainte-
 nance, and promotion of multi-use trails as well as implementation.
   (c)  The  office  of  parks, recreation and historic preservation, the
 department of environmental conservation, the department of health,  the
 department  of transportation and any other state agencies, departments,
 public authorities or programs  with  relevant  expertise  or  resources
 shall provide the empire state development corporation with such facili-
 ties,  assistance,  and data as will enable the empire state development
 corporation to carry out its powers and duties. The empire state  devel-
 opment  corporation  will have primary responsibility for implementation
 of the plan created pursuant to the provisions of this act, provided the
 costs of implementation have been  appropriated  or  identified  by  the
 chairperson of the empire state development corporation.
   § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.

SPONSOR: KAPLAN
 
TITLE OF BILL:  An act to require the office of parks, recreation and
historic preservation to create a plan regarding non-motorized multi-use
trails

 
PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL:

This legislation would require OPRHP to create a plan regarding non-mo-
torized multi use trails.

 
SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS:

Section 1: The Office of Parks, Recreation, and Historic Preservation
shall create a plan for a comprehensive statewide system of non-motor-
ized multi-use trails within one year of the effective date.  Parks
shall consult with DEC, DOH and DOT to create such plan. These individ-
uals shall meet quarterly. This section requires a 60 day public comment
period and at a minimum one public hearing on the draft plan during that
time. The plan shall be updated at a minimum every five years.

Specifically the plan shall include a vision for a statewide network of
non-motorized primary corridors linked to and enhanced by regional and
local non-motorized trails with goals for geographic distribution, and
universal accessibility. Also requires a geographic information system
inventory of existing non-motorized multi-use trails, as well as planned
trails or undeveloped corridors under consideration. The plan shall
identify new non-motorized multi-use trail opportunities, as well as
recommend funding. Section 2 is the effective date.

 
JUSTIFICATION:

Non-Motorized multi-use trails have been observed to have an important
economic impact on the communities around them, with the Erie Canalway
Trail alone having an estimated impact of $253 million in sales, 3,440
jobs, $78 million in labor income, and $28.5 million in tax revenue.
This effect stands to be multiplied in New York State, with the impend-
ing construction of the new Empire State Trail.  Additionally, New York
has more than 1,000 miles of regional and local trails networks found
all across the state. While these trails enhance their communities,
their economic impact is stymied by a lack of long term planning.

In order to advance trail development to their full potential, and maxi-
mize the various benefits of trails, New York needs a coordinated strat-
egy for linking existing and potential individual trail corridors to
create a statewide, interconnected system. With thousands of miles of
scenic rivers and streams, lakeshores, canals, historic roadways, and
abandoned railroad corridors, plus hundreds of a appealing cities, towns
and villages, opportunities to create additional trails and connections
between existing trails abound in every region of the state.

A plan to build out the connectivity of regional trail networks will
enhance the economic impact of existing trails and the new Empire State
Trail and will create more opportunities for outdoor recreation, tourism
and health benefits in every corner of New York.

 BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
 
   Section  1.  (a) For the purposes of this act, the term "non-motorized
 multi-use trail" shall mean an off-street linear facility for recreation
 and transportation, paved or unpaved, designated to serve multiple types
 of non-motorized users,  including,  but  not  limited  to,  bicyclists,
 pedestrians, in-line skaters, joggers, cross-country skiers or equestri-
 ans.
   (b)  The office of parks, recreation and historic preservation, or for
 purposes of this act, the "office", shall create a plan for a comprehen-
 sive statewide system of non-motorized multi-use trails consisting of  a
 network  of  non-motorized  primary  corridors linked to and enhanced by
 regional and local non-motorized multi-use trails. The draft plan  shall
 be  completed  one  year  after this act becomes a law. The office shall
 consult concurrently with representatives from the department  of  envi-
 ronmental  conservation,  the department of health and the department of
 transportation to create such plan.  A  representative  of  each  agency
 shall  be  appointed by the commissioner of their respective agency. The
 office shall meet with the representatives of  such  agencies  at  least
 quarterly.    There  shall  be a sixty-day public comment period on such
 draft plan and there shall be at least one public hearing on  the  draft

 plan  during  such sixty-day public comment period. The final plan shall
 be completed and adopted one hundred eighty days after submission of the
 draft plan. The plan shall be updated no less  than  every  five  years.
 Such plan shall include five major components:
   (i)  A  vision for a statewide network of non-motorized primary corri-
 dors linked to and enhanced by regional and local  non-motorized  multi-
 use  trails,  which will include trail uses to be addressed in the plan;
 goals for geographic distribution; goals  for  universal  accessibility;
 and general goals for new trail acquisition and development.
   (ii)  A Geographic Information System (GIS) inventory of existing non-
 motorized multi-use trails across the state, as well as planned  non-mo-
 torized  multi-use  trails, or undeveloped corridors under consideration
 for future non-motorized multi-use trails.
   (iii) Identification of new  non-motorized  multi-use  trail  opportu-
 nities including, but not limited to, transportation (rail, canal, trol-
 ley)  corridors - existing, abandoned or under consideration to be aban-
 doned; under-utilized or closed roads;  utility  corridors  and  natural
 corridors such as waterways and waterfronts.
   (iv)  A comprehensive set of non-motorized multi-use trail recommenda-
 tions, including but not limited to acquisition and development  priori-
 ties;  guidelines for design and maintenance of different "tier" (prima-
 ry, regional, local)  non-motorized  multi-use  trails;  guidelines  for
 wayfinding,   marketing   and   interpretive   signs  and  informational
 resources, such as statewide and regional maps of existing non-motorized
 multi-use trails, to promote the use of such trails  and  their  coordi-
 nation with other tourism opportunities in New York state.
   (v) Recommendations for funding the acquisition, construction, mainte-
 nance, and promotion of non-motorized multi-use trails as well as imple-
 mentation.
   (c)  The  department  of environmental conservation, the department of
 health, the department of transportation and any other  state  agencies,
 departments,  public  authorities or programs with relevant expertise or
 resources shall provide the office with such facilities, assistance, and
 data as will enable the office to carry out its powers and  duties.  The
 office  will  have primary responsibility for implementation of the plan
 created pursuant to the provisions of this act, provided  the  costs  of
 implementation  have been appropriated or identified by the commissioner
 of the office.
   § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
