 STATE OF NEW YORK
 ________________________________________________________________________

 2025-2026 Regular Sessions

 IN ASSEMBLY

 February 26, 2025
 ___________

 Introduced by M. of A. DURSO -- read once and referred to the Committee
 on Election Law

 AN ACT to amend the election law, in relation to establishing no school
 shall serve as a polling place

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

 1 Section 1. Subdivision 3 of section 4-104 of the election law, as
 2 amended by chapter 694 of the laws of 1989, is amended and a new subdi-
 3 vision 7-a is added to read as follows:
 4 3. A building exempt from taxation shall be used whenever possible as
 5 a polling place if it is situated in the same or a contiguous election
 6 district, and may contain as many distinctly separate polling places as
 7 public convenience may require. The expense, if any, incidental to its
 8 use, shall be paid like the expense of other places of registration and
 9 voting. [If a board or body empowered to designate polling places choos-
 10 es a public school building for such purpose, the board or agency which
 11 controls such building must make available a room or rooms in such
 12 building which are suitable for registration and voting and which are as
 13 close as possible to a convenient entrance to such building and must
 14 make available any such room or rooms which the board or body designat-
 15 ing such building determines are accessible to physically disabled
 16 voters as provided in subdivision one-a.] Notwithstanding the provisions
 17 of any general, special or local law, if a board or body empowered to
 18 designate polling places chooses a publicly owned or leased building[,
 19 other than a public school building,] for such purposes the board or
 20 body which controls such building must make available a room or rooms in
 21 such building which are suitable for registration and voting and which
 22 are as close as possible to a convenient entrance to such building, and
 23 must make available any such room or rooms which the board or body
 24 designating such building determines are accessible to physically disa-
 25 bled voters unless, not later than thirty days after notice of its

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

 A. 6153 2

 1 designation as a polling place, the board or body controlling such
 2 building, files a written request for a cancellation of such designation
 3 with the board or body empowered to designate polling places on such
 4 form as shall be provided by the board or body making such designation.
 5 The board or body empowered to so designate shall, within twenty days
 6 after such request is filed, determine whether the use of such building
 7 as a polling place would unreasonably interfere with the usual activ-
 8 ities conducted in such building and upon such determination, may cancel
 9 such designation.
 10 7-a. No polling place shall be located on the premises of any public
 11 or private elementary or secondary school or a school for preschool
 12 children, as that term is defined in paragraph i of subdivision one of
 13 section forty-four hundred ten of the education law.
 14 § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
