A 7336 New York Assembly · 2023 Regular Session

Relates to police staffing at certain parks

This bill requires the state parks commissioner to maintain a minimum of 385 full-time regional state park police officers across parks, beaches, campgrounds, historic sites, and concert venues. The number of officers assigned to each area must match the region's average attendance over the past five years. Additionally, the bill mandates that any new park or venue must submit a staffing plan proving there are enough officers before it opens, while also allowing police to be moved between regions during emergencies like natural disasters. These rules will not take effect until one year after the bill becomes law.
