BILL NUMBER: A6968A
 
SPONSOR: Solages

 
TITLE OF BILL:  An act to amend the civil service law, the retirement
and social security law and the criminal procedure law, in relation to
transferring the regional state park police to the division of state
police; and to repeal certain provisions of the parks, recreation and
historic preservation law, relating thereto
 
 
PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL:
 
To merge the State Park Police with the State Police
 
 
SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS:
 
This legislation would amend existing legislation to repeal subdivision
4 of section 9.05 and section 13.17 of the Parks, Recreation and Histor-
ic Preservation Law relating to the Regional State Park Police to allow
this unit to merge with the Division of State Police.
 
The Superintendent of State Police shall be charged generally with the
duty and shall be the power to classify and reclassify all member posi-
tions in the Division of State Police subject to the approval of the
director of the budget.
 
 
JUSTIFICATION:
 
This bill would merge the State Park Police with the State Police which
will result in cost savings for the academy and training for both forc-
es. Additionally the merger will address the high rate of attrition
faced by the State Park Police while eliminating duplication of services
and equipment. It will also reduce overtime costs incurred by the State
Park Police as a stand-alone unit
