Requires the state commissioner of parks, recreation and historic preservation to create a process to approve or deny any new large urban telecommunication infrastructure that is proposed to be located within two hundred feet of any site listed on the State Register or the National Register or eligible to be listed on the National Register.
Impact
The bill will have a notable impact on the regulation of telecommunication structures, as it establishes a framework that prioritizes the protection of historic sites in urban settings. By requiring approval processes for installations near these locations, the legislation could potentially limit the placement of new telecommunications infrastructure. This may encourage telecommunication companies to consider alternative locations or designs that are less intrusive to the historic environment.
Summary
S07417 aims to amend the parks, recreation, and historic preservation law in New York by directing the state commissioner to develop a process for the approval or denial of new large urban telecommunication infrastructure, particularly those that exceed eight feet in height and are proposed within 200 feet of sites listed on the state or national registers of historic places. This initiative is intended to ensure that any new telecommunication installations in urban areas are sensitive to the historical significance of nearby locations, helping to preserve the cultural heritage of the state.
Contention
Discussion surrounding S07417 may hinge on the balance between technological advancement and the preservation of historical sites. Proponents of the bill might argue that it is crucial for maintaining the integrity and aesthetic value of heritage sites against the backdrop of urban modernization. However, opponents may contend that imposing such restrictions could hinder technological progress and growth within urban areas, making it difficult for cities to enhance their telecommunication capabilities. This tension between preservation and progress is likely to be a focal point in debates as the bill moves through the legislative process.
