New York arts council keeps full powers

The New York State Council on the Arts keeps its full legal powers while a seat is vacant. During a vacancy, it is not considered out of compliance with the rule requiring members from all 10 regions. Vacancies must be filled within a reasonable time. Appointments must move the council toward representing all 10 regions, as far as practical, using Empire State Development Corporation boundaries. These rules take effect on the same date and in the same manner as the related 2024 regional-representation amendment.
