Authorizes the trustees of the state university of New York to lease and contract to make available certain land on the SUNY Stony Brook campus
This bill authorizes SUNY trustees to lease approximately 11.5 acres of underutilized land at the Stony Brook campus to a nonprofit housing development corporation. The agreement would allow the construction and operation of multi-purpose facilities to address housing needs and community amenities for up to 99 years, with the land reverting to the university if the project stops or the lease ends. To ensure public accountability, the lease requires approval from state budget, legal, and accounting officials, and all construction work must follow state labor laws and prevailing wage requirements. Additionally, the legislation explicitly prohibits the university from contracting out any current public employee duties, such as instruction or administrative services, to the private lessee or its subsidiaries.
