Authorizes the county of Suffolk to alienate certain lands used as parklands and to dedicate certain other lands as parklands
Suffolk County would be authorized to sell a specific parkland parcel (about 0.23 acres) in Smithtown to Russel and Deana Galindo for residential development. In exchange, the county must dedicate a different parcel (about 0.24 acres) as new parkland, ensuring the replacement land's fair market value matches the sold property. If the replacement land is less valuable, the county must acquire additional parkland or fund improvements to offset the difference. This bill directly affects Suffolk County's land management and the Galindos' residential plans.
