BILL NUMBER:S6328

Title of bill

An act to legalize, validate, ratify and confirm certain transportation contracts of the Hamburg central school district

Purpose

Relates to the transportation contracts for Hamburg Central School District.

Summary of provisions

This bill rectifies submission errors made by Hamburg Central School district when filing transportation agreements from the 2005-06 school year.

Justification

The Hamburg Central School District made an error in submitting transportation contracts for the 2005-2006 school year, and as a result, the State Department of Education did not approve them. In order for Hamburg Central to receive the correct amount of state transportation aid these past contract numbers must now be validated through special legislation. Failure to receive reimbursement of the transportation contract costs would create undue fiscal hardship to the school district and its students.

Fiscal implications
