✦ Plain-Language Summary

This bill would establish a dedicated New York State Park Police department to patrol and protect state parks across New York. Currently, park security may be handled by various agencies, but this would create a specialized police force focused specifically on keeping park visitors and facilities safe. New Yorkers who visit state parks could benefit from more consistent and specialized law enforcement presence in those spaces.
