The sponsor's argument

Why Jack M. Martins says this is needed

The Great Neck Park District administers and maintains the parkland on behalf of the Village of Kings Point Such park district has requested that the Village of Kings Point consent to a land swap. This will enable the Village to afford the public with superior park facilities that are being lost by the alienation.

This is the sponsor's own case for the bill, quoted from their memorandum. It is not Agora's description of what the bill does.
