Adds Doodletown Brook to the definition of inland waterways eligible for the local waterfront revitalization program
This bill adds Doodletown Brook in Rockland County to the list of inland waterways eligible for New York's local waterfront revitalization program. It amends existing law by including this specific brook in the official definition of qualifying waterways, alongside other named creeks and streams. The change directly affects communities in Rockland County that may now access program funding for waterfront projects along Doodletown Brook. No new funding or program requirements are created - this is solely a technical update to the eligibility list.
