        AN ACT to amend the general municipal law, in  relation  to  prohibiting
          industrial  development  agencies  from incentivizing movements within
          the state

          THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND  ASSEM-
        BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

     1    Section  1. Subdivision 1 of section 862 of the general municipal law,
     2  as amended by section 1 of part J of chapter 59 of the laws of 2013,  is
     3  amended to read as follows:
     4    (1)  No funds of the agency shall be used in respect of any project if
     5  the completion thereof would result in the removal of [an industrial  or
     6  manufacturing]  ANY plant, FACILITY OR PERSONNEL of the project occupant
     7  from one area of the state to another area of the  state  [or],  in  the
     8  abandonment  of one or more plants or facilities of the project occupant
     9  located within the state  OR  THE  UNEMPLOYMENT  OR  RELOCATION  OF  ANY
    10  PERSONNEL  WHO  ARE EMPLOYED BY THE PROJECT OCCUPANT, provided, however,
    11  that neither restriction shall apply if the agency  shall  determine  on
    12  the  basis  of  the application before it that the project is reasonably
    13  necessary to discourage the project occupant from  removing  such  other
    14  plant  or  facility  to  a  location  outside the state or is reasonably
    15  necessary to preserve the competitive position of the  project  occupant
    16  in  its  respective  industry  DUE  TO  PHYSICAL,  ZONING, OR LOGISTICAL
    17  CONSTRAINTS AT SUCH PROJECT OCCUPANT'S EXISTING SITE WITHIN THE STATE.
    18    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
