        Introduced by M. of A. JOYNER -- read once and referred to the Committee
          on Local Governments
 
        AN ACT to amend the general municipal law, in relation to urban develop-
          ment action areas
 
          The  People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
        bly, do enact as follows:
 
     1    Section 1. Section 693 of the general municipal  law,  as  amended  by
     2  chapter 36 of the laws of 2015, is amended to read as follows:
     3    §  693.  Area  designation.  An urban development action area shall by
     4  resolution be designated by the governing body,  or  by  the  commission
     5  where  so authorized to act by the governing body, on its own initiative
     6  or upon recommendation of the agency, provided at least sixty percent of
     7  such area is an eligible area. Any such designation shall be in conform-
     8  ance with the standards and procedures required for all land use  deter-
     9  minations  pursuant  to  general,  special  or  local  law  or  charter.
    10  Provided, however, that if a  proposed  urban  development  action  area
    11  project  is  to  be developed on an eligible area and consists solely of
    12  the rehabilitation or  conservation  of  existing  private  or  multiple
    13  dwellings  or  the  construction of one to four unit dwellings or, until
    14  June thirtieth, two thousand [eighteen] twenty-one, for up to six  urban

    16  of up to ninety dwelling units financed by the  federal  government  and
    17  restricted  to  occupancy by the elderly or by persons with disabilities
    18  without any change in land use permitted by local zoning, the  governing
    19  body,  or  the  commission  where  so authorized to act by the governing
    20  body, may waive the area designation requirement.
    21    § 2. Subdivision 5 of section 694 of the  general  municipal  law,  as
    22  amended  by  chapter  36  of  the  laws  of  2015, is amended to read as
    23  follows:
    24    5. Any approval of an urban development action area project  shall  be
    25  in  conformance  with the standards and procedures required for all land
    26  use determinations pursuant to general, special or local law or charter.

     7  Provided, however, that if the proposed urban  development  action  area
     8  project  consists solely of the rehabilitation or conservation of exist-
     9  ing private or multiple dwellings or the construction  of  one  to  four
    10  unit  dwellings  or, until June thirtieth, two thousand [eighteen] twen-
    11  ty-one, for up to six urban development  action  area  projects  in  any
    12  calendar  year, the construction of up to ninety dwelling units financed
    13  by the federal government and restricted to occupancy by the elderly  or

    42  take effect immediately and shall be retroactive to and deemed  to  have
    43  been in full force and effect on and after June 30, 2018.
