2006 New York Code - Conveyance Of Property By The Village To The Authority; Acquisition Of Property By The Village Or By The Authority.

 
    §  1595-f.  Conveyance  of  property  by the village to the authority;
  acquisition of property by the village  or  by  the  authority.  1.  The
  village  may,  by  resolution  or  resolutions  of  the village board of
  trustees or by instruments authorized by such resolutions, convey,  with
  or  without  consideration,  to the authority real and personal property
  owned by the village for use by the authority as a project  or  projects
  or  a  part  thereof.  In  case  of real property so conveyed, the title
  thereto shall remain in the village but the authority shall have the use
  and occupancy thereof for so  long  as  its  corporate  existence  shall
  continue.  In the case of personal property so conveyed, the title shall
  pass to the authority.
    2. The village may acquire in the name of the village by  purchase  or
  condemnation real property in the village for any of the projects or for
  the  widening of existing roads, streets, avenues or highways or for new
  roads, streets, avenues or highways, within a radius of one mile to  any
  of the projects, or partly for such purpose and partly for other village
  purposes,  by purchase or condemnation in the manner provided by law for
  the acquisition of real property by the village.  For like purposes, the
  village may close such streets, roads, avenues, or highways  as  may  be
  necessary  or  convenient,  except  as  to  state  highways and arterial
  highways which may not be  closed  without  the  consent  of  the  state
  commissioner of transportation.
    3. Contracts may be entered into between the village and the authority
  providing  for  the  property  to  be  conveyed  by  the  village to the
  authority, the additional property to be acquired by the village and  so
  conveyed,  the streets, roads, avenues, and highways to be closed by the
  village and the amounts, terms and conditions of payment to be  made  by
  the  authority. Such contracts may also contain covenants by the village
  as to the road, street, avenue and highway improvements to  be  made  by
  the  village.  Any  such contracts between the village and the authority
  may be pledged by the authority to secure  its  bonds  and  may  not  be
  modified  thereafter  except as provided by the terms of the pledge. The
  village board of trustees  may  authorize  such  contracts  between  the
  village  and the authority and no other authorization on the part of the
  village for such contracts shall be necessary. Any such contracts may be
  so authorized and entered into by the village and in such manner as  the
  village board of trustees may determine, and the payments required to be
  made  by  the  village  may be made and financed notwithstanding that no
  provision therefor shall have first been made in the capital  budget  of
  the  village.  All  contractual  or  other  obligations  of  the village
  incurred in carrying out the provisions of this title shall be  included
  in  and  provided  for  by each capital budget of the village thereafter
  made, if and to the extent  that  they  may  appropriately  be  included
  therein.
    4. The authority may itself acquire real property for a project in the
  name of the village at the cost and expense of the authority by purchase
  or condemnation pursuant to the condemnation law or pursuant to the laws
  relating to the condemnation of land by the village. The authority shall
  have  the  use  and  occupancy  of  such  real  property  so long as its
  corporate existence shall continue.
    5. In case the authority shall have the use and occupancy of any  real
  property  which  it  shall determine is no longer required for a project
  then, if such real property was acquired at the cost and expense of  the
  village,  the  authority  shall  have  power  to  surrender  its use and
  occupancy thereof to the village, or, if such real property was acquired
  at the cost and expense of the authority, then the authority shall  have
  power  to  sell,  lease  or  otherwise  dispose of said real property at
  public sale, and shall retain and have the power to use the proceeds  of
  sale,  rentals, or other moneys derived from the disposition thereof for
  its purposes.
