 Introduced by M. of A. SIMON, SEAWRIGHT, SHIMSKY, MAGNARELLI, ALVAREZ,

 AN ACT to direct the office of general services to conduct a feasibility
 study on installing solar panels on all public buildings under the

 repeal of such provisions upon expiration thereof

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-

 2 department of environmental conservation, shall study the cost and
 3 viability of installing solar panels on all public buildings under the
 4 jurisdiction of the office of general services. Such study shall also
 5 identify buildings that have a historic design that the office deter-
 6 mines shall be unduly burdened by solar panels; and buildings that the
 7 office determines do not receive adequate sunlight to justify the cost
 8 of installation of solar panels.
 9 § 2. No later than one year after the effective date of this act, the
 10 office of general services shall report its findings of such study to
 11 the governor and the legislature, as described under section one of this
 12 act.
 13 § 3. This act shall take effect immediately, and shall expire and be
 14 deemed repealed one year after such effective date.
