So read the limitation applies only to a special law which is directly concerned with the property, affairs or government of a local government and unrelated to a matter of proper concern to State government.

It was, therefore, within the power of the Legislature under article IX (§ 3, par [a], cl [3]) to enact the Environmental Conservation Law section without the request or message of necessity referred to in section 2 (par [b], cl [2]) of that article. The judgment of Special Term, Suffolk County, [64 N.Y.2d 50 Page 53]
