BILL NUMBER:S941A
Title of bill
An act in relation to legalizing, validating, ratifying and confirming actions of the Oyster Bay - East Norwich central school district with respect to certain building aid contracts
Purpose
This legislation would remedy a ministerial filing error on the part of the Oyster Bay-East Norwich central school district in relation to their eligibility for state aid.
Summary of provisions
Section 1 provides for the legislative intent on the legislation.
Section 2 legalizes, validates, ratifies and confirms the Oyster Bay-East Norwich central school district compliance with the requirements set forth so that they shall receive the appropriate state aid previously allotted to them for certain building projects.
Section 4 provides that this act shall take effect immediately.
Justification
The Oyster Bay-East Norwich central school district approved several capital improvement projects through the State Education Department which were deemed eligible for state aid.
Due to ministerial error, however, the proper filing for such aid was never accomplished, and thus, the District became ineligible for such aid. This legislation seeks to rectify that situation.
