BILL NUMBER:A10272B
Title of bill
An act to amend chapter 118 of the laws of 1969, relating to a separate union free school district in the town of Greenburgh in the county of Westchester, in relation to clarifying the authority of the Greenburgh North Castle Union Free School District to lease certain properties located outside of its boundaries and to establish that the Greenburgh North Castle Union free school district number twelve and St. Christopher's Inc. are "private not-for-profit schools"
Purpose or general idea of the bill
This legislation will authorize the Greenburgh North Castle Union Free School District to continue leasing property outside of district bounda- ries for the purpose of providing instruction to students.
Section 1: Authorizes the District, upon State Education Department approval to lease property located at 623 Blooming Grove Turnpike in the town of New Windsor, county of Orange for the purpose of providing instruction to students enrolled in the school district.
Section 2: Ratifies previous Board action regarding lease arrangements at these sites.
Section 3: Establishes the effective date.
Justification
The Greenburgh North Castle Union Free School District is a special act district that currently operates programs to serve special needs students. In 2005, the district opened the Greenburgh Academy in Yonkers which now serves over 170 students. Since the present location is outside of the Districts physical boundaries, this legislation allows the school district authorization to lease space outside its boundaries
