§  1330.  Formulation, filing and adoption of action plan; amendments.   The authority shall formulate an action plan for  transportation  within   the  district. In formulating such plan, the authority shall consult and   cooperate with the commissioner and the planning authorities in the area   of  its  operations,  and  shall  utilize  state,  local   or   regional   transportation  planning.  The  authority shall request and use existing   studies, plans, surveys, data and other materials completed by or  under   development  by  any  state  agency or municipality. The authority shall   file copies of such plan with the commissioner,  the  central  New  York   regional  planning and development board, the common council of the city   of Syracuse, the county legislature of the county of Onondaga, and  with   the  legislative body of any other county, within the district, affected   by such plan, as hereinafter stated. The plan shall contain  information   regarding  the  transportation  system  that  the  authority  intends to   provide  including  information  regarding  the   facilities   connected   therewith,  the  services  the  authority contemplates providing and the   estimated costs and the proposed method of financing. During sixty  days   after  the  filing of the action plan with the commissioner, the central   New  York  regional  planning  and  development  board  and   with   the   legislative  body  or  bodies as aforesaid, said plan shall be available   for public inspection at the office or offices of the authority  and  at   such  other  places  in  the areas affected, within the district, as the   authority may designate. Not earlier than thirty days after  the  filing   of said action plan with the commissioner, the central New York regional   planning  and  development  board and such legislative body or bodies, a   public hearing on said plan shall be held by the authority.   Notice  of   such  a hearing shall be given to the commissioner, the central New York   regional planning and development board  and  the  legislative  body  or   bodies  as  aforesaid and by publication once a week for two weeks prior   to the said hearing at the time and place  fixed  by  the  authority  in   newspapers  of  general  circulation  within  the  areas affected, to be   selected by the authority. The last publication date shall not  be  less   than  five  days  before said hearing. Within thirty days following said   public hearing, the authority shall provide a transcript of such hearing   to  the  commissioner,  the  central  New  York  regional  planning  and   development  board  and  the  legislative  body  or bodies as aforesaid,   together with any amendments the authority may  propose  to  the  action   plan. The authority shall request approval of the action plan, including   such  amendments as the authority may propose, from the commissioner and   the aforementioned legislative body or bodies. Any  part  of  said  plan   which  is  disapproved  by  a  political  subdivision  because it alters   existing  services  or  the  financing  thereof  within  said  political   subdivision shall not become operative.  The commissioner may disapprove   any  part  of  said plan if he finds that it conflicts with a state-wide   comprehensive  master  plan   for   transportation   or   the   Syracuse   metropolitan   transportation   study   and   the   Oswego-Fulton   area   transportation study or, in the absence of such  plans,  would  have  an   adverse   effect   upon  sound  transportation  development  policy  and   planning. Any part of such plan so disapproved by the commissioner shall   not become operative. Disapproval of part or parts of the plan shall not   make the entire plan inoperative. If the said legislative body or bodies   fail to act within sixty days or in the case of the commissioner  within   ninety  days  after  approval is requested, said failure shall be deemed   approval, and the authority may adopt the action plan by a majority vote   of its membership and may include changes, if any,  recommended  by  the   commissioner, said planning board or legislative body or bodies.The  action  plan  may be amended from time to time in the same manner   using the procedures outlined herein for the original  adoption,  except    that  a  proposed amendment which is recommended by the legislative body   or bodies affected thereby and  approval  by  the  commissioner  may  be   embodied  or  continued  by  a  majority  vote  of the authority without   additional  hearings  thereon as required for the amendments proposed to   be made.
