AN ACT to authorize the conveyance of title of certain parklands in the
village of Penn Yan
THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
1 Section 1. Legislative findings. The legislature hereby finds and
2 determines that the village of Penn Yan, in the county of Yates, alien-
3 ated and conveyed municipal parklands on September 25, 1972 to the
4 company known as Penn Yan Boats, Inc., as authorized by chapter 353 of
5 the laws of 1972 in exchange for five additional substitute parcels of
6 land. Furthermore:
7 (a) On February 26, 2014 the village of Penn Yan, county of Yates, and
8 Keuka Outlet Development LLC entered into a development agreement to
9 redevelop and rehabilitate the former Penn Yan Marine site originally
10 conveyed to Penn Yan Boats, Inc. pursuant to chapter 353 of the laws of
11 1972, with the county and Keuka entering into a Brownfield Clean-Up
12 Agreement with the New York State Department of Environmental Conserva-
13 tion.
14 (b) Subsequent to the parties entering into the development agreement
15 it was discovered that the legal description used in chapter 353 of the
16 laws of 1972 and property deed used to convey the land to Penn Yan
17 Boats, Inc., both failed to properly define the metes and bounds of the
18 lands to be conveyed and which were thereafter used and occupied by Penn
19 Yan Boats, Inc.
20 (c) Prior to the discovery of the erroneous property description, the
21 village of Penn Yan was unaware that there remained an appearance it
22 retained title or interest in the small parcel of property not properly
23 included in the legal description of the land from chapter 353 of the
24 laws of 1972.
EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
[ ] is old law to be omitted.

8 legislative approval.

10 through its village board, is authorized to discontinue and alienate as
