 IN ASSEMBLY

 January 5, 2026
 ___________

 Introduced by M. of A. STIRPE -- read once and referred to the Committee
 on Governmental Operations

 AN ACT to amend the economic development law, in relation to technical
 assistance provided to municipalities related to college and universi-
 ty closures; and to repeal section 153 of the executive law, in
 relation thereto

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 1 Section 1. Section 153 of the executive law, as added by a chapter of
 2 the laws of 2025 amending the executive law relating to providing tech-
 3 nical assistance to any municipality that has had a college or universi-
 4 ty close within such municipality, as proposed in legislative bills
 5 numbers S. 1525 and A. 2007, is REPEALED.
 6 § 2. The economic development law is amended by adding a new section
 7 12 to read as follows:
 8 § 12. Technical assistance to municipalities related to college and
 9 university closures. The department shall provide to any municipality,
 10 upon request, technical assistance in the event of a college or univer-
 11 sity closing in such municipality, on topics including but not limited
 12 to:
 13 1. workforce transition and development;
 14 2. attracting new employers and economic opportunities;
 15 3. developing plans for the land and buildings formerly occupied by
 16 such college or university; and
 17 4. recommendations and planning assistance for dealing with creditors
 18 and other entities having a financial interest in such college or
 19 university's assets located in such municipality, provided, however,
 20 that the state shall not become a party to any legal proceedings pursu-
 21 ant to this section.
 22 § 3. This act shall take effect on the same date and in the same
 23 manner as a chapter of the laws of 2025 amending the executive law
 24 relating to providing technical assistance to any municipality that has
 25 had a college or university close within such municipality, as proposed
 26 in legislative bills numbers S. 1525 and A. 2007, takes effect.
