Relates to preventing the use of funds, financial incentives, subsidies or tax exemptions for projects with non-public occupants
S 5171 requires that the occupant of any project receiving public funds, financial incentives, subsidies, or tax exemptions must be publicly disclosed before a required public hearing. This applies to projects funded by agencies or granted tax breaks, ensuring transparency about who will occupy the space. The bill amends two sections of New York's General Municipal Law to mandate this disclosure at the time of the public hearing process. It directly affects developers or entities seeking public financial support for projects where occupant identity was previously undisclosed.
