Authorizes the City of White Plains to alienate certain property owned by the City of White Plains and operated as the former Galleria of White Plains public parking garage
This bill authorizes the City of White Plains to sell or lease its former Galleria public parking garage to a private developer. The legislation allows the city to dispose of approximately 3.71 acres of land without holding a public auction, provided the buyer agrees to create a mixed-use project that includes affordable housing, public spaces, and adequate parking. The sale is intended to facilitate a new transit-oriented residential and commercial development on the site. Once signed into law, the city council can negotiate the specific terms of the deal directly with a chosen buyer.
