 AN ACT to authorize municipalities located in the county of Orange and
 the county of Rockland to charge for the cost of providing additional
 police protection to paid-admission events

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

 1 Section 1. Any municipality located in the county of Orange or the
 2 county of Rockland is hereby authorized to adopt a local law to provide
 3 that the person or persons responsible for either operating, conducting,
 4 promoting, or sponsoring any special event, exhibition, or contest to be
 5 held in such municipality, at which a price for admission or attendance
 6 is charged or is to be charged, shall pay the costs incurred by such
 7 municipality as a result of providing additional police personnel, if
 8 any, beyond the normal number of officers who would have otherwise been
 9 on duty. The local law shall identify the type or types of special
 10 events, exhibitions, or contests for which an activity's operator,
 11 conductor, promoter, or sponsor may be charged for additional police
 12 personnel that is either requested by the operator, conductor, promoter,
 13 or sponsor or determined to be necessary by the municipality. The local
 14 law may also provide that: (a) the operator, conductor, promoter, or
 15 sponsor of the activity shall complete such forms or applications
 16 providing the information deemed necessary by the municipality to deter-
 17 mine whether any additional police personnel should be scheduled for the
 18 event; (b) the local law shall not apply to any corporation formed under
 19 the not-for-profit corporation law; and (c) the operator, conductor,
 20 promoter, or sponsor of the activity shall pay all or a portion of the
 21 estimated cost of additional police protection prior to the commencement
 22 of the event.
 23 § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.

 EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
 [ ] is old law to be omitted.
