New York policy

S10557: Relates to land owned by not-for-profit conservation organizations

NY Senate · Sponsor Rachel May

Jurisdiction
New York State
Applies to
New York State (proposed)
Effective
May 21, 2026

What it requires

Prohibits any lands owned by a not-for-profit conservation organization from being taken by adverse possession; creates a cause of action by which not-for-profit conservation organizations and public bodies may compel the removal of encroachments on open space lands, or lands subject to a conservation easement, and recover restoration costs, reasonable attorney's fees, and multiple damages as appropriate, thereby shifting the cost burden of enforcing encroachments to the responsible party and discouraging further harm to open space managed for the public's benefit.
