Adds Doodletown Brook to the definition of inland waterways eligible for the local waterfront revitalization program
This bill expands the list of waterways eligible for the state's local waterfront revitalization program by adding Doodletown Brook in Rockland County. The key provision amends an existing section of the executive law to include this specific brook alongside other major creeks and brooks currently listed. By including Doodletown Brook in the definition of inland waterways, the bill allows local communities near this waterway to access funding and resources for waterfront improvement projects. The change takes effect immediately upon passage.
