 STATE OF NEW YORK
 ________________________________________________________________________

 5119

 2025-2026 Regular Sessions

 IN SENATE

 February 19, 2025
 ___________

 Introduced by Sens. GIANARIS, JACKSON, RAMOS -- read twice and ordered
 printed, and when printed to be committed to the Committee on Corpo-
 rations, Authorities and Commissions

 AN ACT to amend the public authorities law, in relation to exempting the
 metropolitan transportation authority from the requirement for public
 authorities to reimburse the state for services provided to such
 authorities

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

 1 Section 1. Subdivision 1 of section 2975 of the public authorities
 2 law, as added by chapter 62 of the laws of 1989, is amended to read as
 3 follows:
 4 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary, every
 5 public authority and every public benefit corporation created by or
 6 pursuant to [New York] state law at least three of whose members are
 7 appointed by the governor, whether such authority or corporation is
 8 otherwise governed by this chapter (such entities, as so constituted, to
 9 be hereafter in this title referred to as "public benefit corpo-
 10 rations"), shall reimburse to [New York] the state an allocable share of
 11 state governmental costs attributable to the provision of services to
 12 public benefit corporations, as determined [herein] in this title.
 13 Provided, however, that the provisions of this section and, for the
 14 purposes of this section, the term "public benefit corporation" shall
 15 not include the metropolitan transportation authority, as established in
 16 title eleven of article five of this chapter. The payment of such costs
 17 by public benefit corporations is a valid and proper purpose for which
 18 available authority funds may be applied.
 19 § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.

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