No. 921-B\n\nBy Council Members Williams, Friedlander, Ward and Wooten; also Council Members Clark, Dryfoos, Foster, Harrison, Leffler, Lisa, O'Donovan, Spigner, Alter, DiBrienza, Gerges and Horwitz\n\nA Local Law to amend the charter of the city of New York, in relation to the creation of a department of Youth Services\n\nBe it enacted by the Council as follows:\n\nSection one. Declaration of legislative intent and findings. The Council finds that the city of New York expends millions of dollars annually on programs for youth. Funds earmarked for youth programs are currently distributed among numerous and diverse agencies and organizations in both the public and private sectors, and consequently there is a need for improved, centralized coordination of youth programming in order to avoid duplication of services and allow effective monitoring of both the apportionment of funds and program operations.\n\nThe Council finds it appropriate to create a department of youth services to coordinate the large number of youth programs provided by both the city of New York and the private sector. It is the intent of the Council that after the new department is created, youth coordinators will continue to work with youth services planning committees, community boards and the new department with regard to the planning and provision of neighborhood youth services.\n\n* * *\n\n[Consolidated provisions are not included in this Appendix A]\n\n* * *\n\n§ 3. Wherever by any provision of this local law there are functions, powers or duties assigned to the department of youth services or any of its officers or employees which have been heretofore exercised by any other agency, officer or employee, all officers and employees in the classified municipal civil service who at the time when such provision shall take effect are engaged in the performance of such functions, powers or duties, shall be transferred to the department of youth services to which such functions, powers or duties are assigned by this chapter, without examination and without affecting existing collective bargaining agreements, existing compensation or pension or retirement rights, privileges or obligations of such officers and employees.\n\n§ 4. This local law shall take effect one hundred and twenty days after its enactment into law.","path":["New York City Administrative Code","1989"],"source_url":"https://files.amlegal.com/pdffiles/NewYorkCity/Admin/XML.zip","current_through":"Local Law 2026/135 (enacted August 31, 2026)","vintage":"","retrieved_at":"2026-09-06T02:48:57Z","sha256":"5a7a94add9be751604bc8d5c4a93cfdea34d096da80fd8b36ea807f24766d871","source_id":"us-nyc","stale":false,"prev":"us-nyc/n.y.c.-admin.-code-l.l.-1989-017","next":"us-nyc/n.y.c.-admin.-code-l.l.-1989-019"},"notice":"GroundRules: Original legal text.
