Latest version.
  • 1.  Following  the hearings held
      pursuant to section seventeen hundred  thirty-one  of  this  title,  but
      prior  to  initiating  construction  of  new educational facilities, the
      authority shall submit the site plan of such projects to the  mayor  and
      the  council  for  review,  provided, however, that such review shall be
      limited to the site selected for the project.
        2. The site plan shall be deemed to be approved  by  the  city  unless
      within twenty days of such submission by the authority it is disapproved
      by the mayor or by the council, acting by a two-thirds vote. The council
      may,  by a two-thirds vote, override any disapproval of the mayor within
      twenty days following receipt of notice of  such  disapproval  from  the
      mayor.  The notice provision contained herein shall be deemed sufficient
      for action by the mayor and the council notwithstanding any provision of
      law, local or general, or charter to the contrary.
        3. The city may not require  the  authority  to  conduct  any  further
      hearings or seek any further approvals as a condition for receiving city
      approval.
        4.  If  the  council  or  mayor  disapproves  the  site  plan, (a) the
      authority may, after consultation with the city board, revise such  site
      plan  for  resubmission pursuant to section seventeen hundred thirty-one
      of this title and this section  or  (b)  the  authority  may,  with  the
      agreement  of  the  city  board and chancellor, eliminate such site plan
      from the five-year educational facilities capital plan.
