Expands who may visit local correctional facilities to include county officials and New York City officials.

Specifically, it includes the chief executive officer of a county, members of a county legislative body, the mayor of the city of New York, the New York city public advocate, the New York city comptroller, and members of the New York city council. This change allows these officials and their staff to visit correctional facilities at their discretion.
