S 3106 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Allows for the donation of personal property of the state to certain not-for-profit organizations

This bill allows New York state agencies to donate surplus personal property (like office equipment or furniture, excluding vehicles) to tax-exempt nonprofits that are current on their annual filings. It adds donation as a formal disposal option alongside sales or reuse, requiring agencies to maintain records for audits. The change directly affects state agencies managing surplus assets and qualifying 501(c)(3) nonprofits seeking donated materials. This policy simplifies how agencies can transfer unused property to community organizations without requiring sale or return to the state general fund.
