Legal Authority, Constraints, and Potential Options	2023	49	.pdf	application/pdf	22859	1154	55	If a local government passes a law that exceeds the scope of the legislative grant that the State has provided, the relevant law will be invalidated as ultra vires.79 A number of states have passed statutes that explicitly grant their local governments the authority to pass local impact fees. And while the court ultimately invalidated Yorktown’s particular fee program on procedural grounds,102 commentators generally read Kamhi as having endorsed the idea that local impact fees could, at least in theory, be grounded in Section 10 of the MHRL alone, without more specific enabling legislation.103 As a starting point, then, it seems reasonable to suspect that New York City’s home rule authority could provide a basis of authority for adopting some sort of fee.	cache/cjel-11733.pdf	txt/cjel-11733.txt
