ALBANY, N.Y. — Gov. David Paterson’s proposal to keep all New York’s 213 parks and historic sites funded and open starting Memorial Day weekend has hit resistance from lawmakers and environmentalists since it’s embedded in a broader measure to reduce dedicated environmental spending.

Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver Monday called it “inappropriate” for Paterson to put $6 million for parks in a bill that actually reallocates $110 million from the state’s Environmental Protection Fund. He says lawmakers instead may simply pass a mandate to open all parks, but Paterson could veto that as he seeks to cut spending in a fiscal crisis.

Administration officials listed 14 historic sites and 41 parks for closing, though eight have found local or private funding.
