§ 279-a. Acquisition of real property for future districts in Suffolk county. 1. In the county of Suffolk, upon the adoption of a resolution, the county legislature may acquire, in the name of the county, any real property or rights therein for use by a future district or districts, or extensions thereof in such county.
2. Any such acquisition of real property or rights therein as herein authorized shall be for the purposes of one or more future districts or extensions thereof which may be established and after the establishment thereof, such real property shall be utilized for such purposes. In the event, however, such district, districts or extensions are not created or the property becomes unsuitable or undesirable for such district purposes, the property may be used for other county purposes, if practicable to do so, but if not, the property may be sold and disposed of in the same manner as other county property no longer needed for county purposes.
3. The initial expense, if any, of any acquisition authorized pursuant to this section shall be a general county charge and shall be assessed, levied and collected in the same manaer and at the same time as other county charges, provided, however, nothing herein contained shall be construed to prevent financing acquisition, in whole or in part, pursuant to the local finance law.
4. When the county authorizes the use of any property or rights therein acquired pursuant to this section and conveys the same to any district, districts or extensions thereof thereafter established, the expense, if any, of such acquisition or a proportionate share of such expense and the cost of maintenance, if any, shall be allocated to the district or extension thereof by the county legislature upon the establishment of such district or extension. Such allocated amount, together with the expense, if any, of the construction of the original improvement for such district or extension, shall be included as a part of the original improvement and maximum amount authorized for and to be spent by such district or extension. Upon conveyance to the district, the district shall repay to the county the aforesaid allocated amount.
