Summary
This bill modifies the New York City Health and Hospitals Corporation Act to change the approval process for transferring health facilities or other real property. Previously, the corporation needed consent from the city's board of estimate to sell, lease, or otherwise transfer property. Under this bill, the corporation instead must comply with the city's uniform land use review procedure as required by the New York City Charter. The corporation must still hold a public hearing after 20 days public notice before transferring property.
