Enacts the "New York state healthy and green procurement act"

This bill establishes the "New York State Healthy and Green Procurement Act," which directs state agencies to prioritize purchasing products and services that minimize harm to public health and the environment. To support this goal, the legislation expands the definition of "costs" in state procurement to include life cycle expenses, such as maintenance, energy use, and disposal, alongside traditional factors like price. Additionally, it amends the composition of the State Procurement Council to include more members representing public health, environmental conservation, and local government interests. By integrating these considerations into the buying process, the act aims to reduce the use of toxic chemicals and promote sustainable options within state operations.
