On Tuesday, Governor Cuomo signed into law an amendment to the 2017 legislation enabling the New York State Thruway Authority (NYSTA) to sell the Boston Post Road property to RCDS. Sponsored by Assemblyman Steve Otis and Senator Shelley Mayer, the amendment supercedes the requirement in the 2017 legislation of a shared use agreement between the School and the City of Rye and establishes instead a requirement for the School to offer public user groups rental access to recreational facilities there for 29% of usable hours.
