A. 11246 10 1 Section 1. Legislative findings and intent. The transportation of 2 school children to and from school is an important component of the 3 state's obligation to ensure adequate support of a public school system 4 for the education of all children of the State. Safely transporting 5 students to and from school is necessary to afford all children of the 6 State an education. School bus cameras and speed cameras in school 7 zones contribute to students' safety and reduce unnecessary dangers 8 students face when travelling to school. Furthermore, high population 9 cities in New York have more students living in close proximity to the 10 students' schools, so the use of photo enforcement to deter motorists 11 from passing stopped school buses and speeding in school zones helps to 12 ensure that students are less at risk when walking or riding to and from 13 school. Therefore, the legislature finds and declares that it is a 14 substantial state concern, with an impact well beyond a single munici- 15 pality, to ensure safe access to schools through the use of photo 16 enforcement as provided in this act. 17 § 2. Section 1604 of the education law is amended by adding a new 18 subdivision 43 to read as follows: 19 43. To pass, in the discretion of the trustees, a resolution authoriz- 20 ing the use of school bus cameras pursuant to section eleven hundred 21 eighteen of the vehicle and traffic law, provided that the trustees may 22 also enter into contracts with a third party for the installation, 23 administration, operation, notice processing, and maintenance of such 24 cameras, and for the sharing of revenue derived from such cameras pursu- 25 ant to section eleven hundred eighteen of the vehicle and traffic law, 26 provided that the purchase, lease, installation, operation and mainte- 27 nance, or any other costs associated with such cameras shall not be 28 considered an aidable expense pursuant to section thirty-six hundred 29 twenty-three-a of this chapter. 30 § 3. Section 1709 of the education law is amended by adding a new 31 subdivision 43 to read as follows: 32 43. To pass a resolution, in the discretion of the board, authorizing 33 the use of school bus cameras pursuant to section eleven hundred eigh- 34 teen of the vehicle and traffic law, provided that the board may also 35 enter into contracts with a third party for the installation, adminis- 36 tration, operation, notice processing, and maintenance of such cameras, 37 and for the sharing of revenue derived from such cameras pursuant to 38 section eleven hundred eighteen of the vehicle and traffic law, provided 39 that the purchase, lease, installation, operation and maintenance, or 40 any other costs associated with such cameras shall not be considered an 41 aidable expense pursuant to section thirty-six hundred twenty-three-a of 42 this chapter. 43 § 4. The vehicle and traffic law is amended by adding a new section 44 1118 to read as follows: 45 § 1118. Owner liability for operator illegally overtaking or passing a 46 school bus. (a) 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, each 47 board of education or trustees of a school district is hereby authorized 48 and empowered to adopt and amend a resolution establishing a school bus 49 safety camera program imposing monetary liability on the owner of a 50 vehicle for failure of an operator thereof to comply with section eleven 51 hundred seventy-four of this title. Such program shall empower a board 52 of education or school district or school bus transportation contractor 53 that has contracted with such school district to install school bus 54 safety cameras upon school buses operated by or contracted with such 55 district.

A. 11246 11 1 2. Such program shall utilize necessary technologies to ensure, to the 2 extent practicable, that photographs produced by such school bus safety 3 cameras shall not include images that identify the driver, the passen- 4 gers, or the contents of the vehicle. Provided, however, that no notice 5 of liability issued pursuant to this section shall be dismissed solely 6 because a photograph or photographs allow for the identification of the 7 contents of a vehicle, provided that such school district has made a 8 reasonable effort to comply with the provisions of this paragraph. 9 (b) In any school district which has adopted a resolution pursuant to 10 subdivision (a) of this section, the owner of a vehicle shall be liable 11 for a penalty imposed pursuant to this section if such vehicle was used 12 or operated with the permission of the owner, express or implied, in 13 violation of subdivision (a) of section eleven hundred seventy-four of 14 this title, and such violation is evidenced by information obtained from 15 a school bus safety camera; provided however that no owner of a vehicle 16 shall be liable for a penalty imposed pursuant to this section where the 17 operator of such vehicle has been convicted of the underlying violation 18 of subdivision (a) of section eleven hundred seventy-four of this title. 19 (c) For purposes of this section, "owner" shall have the meaning 20 provided in article two-B of this chapter. For purposes of this section, 21 "school bus safety camera" shall mean an automated photo monitoring 22 device affixed to the outside of a school bus and designated to detect 23 and store one or more images of motor vehicles that overtake or pass 24 school buses in violation of subdivision (a) of section eleven hundred 25 seventy-four of this title. 26 (d) No school district or school bus transportation contractor that 27 has installed cameras pursuant to this section shall access the images 28 from such cameras but shall provide, pursuant to an agreement with the 29 appropriate law enforcement agency or agencies, for the proper handling 30 and custody of such images for the forwarding of such images from such 31 cameras to a law enforcement agency having jurisdiction in the area in 32 which the violation occurred for the purpose of imposing monetary 33 liability on the owner of a motor vehicle for illegally overtaking or 34 passing a school bus in violation of subdivision (a) of section eleven 35 hundred seventy-four of this title. After receipt of such images a 36 police officer shall inspect such images to determine whether a 37 violation of subdivision (a) of section eleven hundred seventy-four of 38 this title was committed. Upon such a finding a certificate, sworn to or 39 affirmed by an officer of such agency, or a facsimile thereof, based 40 upon inspection of photographs, microphotographs or other recorded 41 images produced by a school bus safety camera, shall be prima facie 42 evidence of the facts contained therein. Any photographs, microphoto- 43 graphs or other recorded images evidencing such a violation shall be 44 available for inspection in any proceeding to adjudicate the liability 45 for such violation. 46 (e) An owner found liable pursuant to this section for a violation of 47 subdivision (a) of section eleven hundred seventy-four of this title 48 shall be liable for a monetary penalty of two hundred fifty dollars. 49 (e-1) Payment of the monetary penalty imposed by subdivision (e) of 50 this section shall be payable to the municipality where the violation 51 occurred, provided however, the school district shall be entitled to a 52 portion of the monetary penalty that equals the cost to the school 53 district of purchasing and maintaining the cameras. Nothing herein shall 54 prevent the municipality from entering into a memorandum of understand- 55 ing with the school district to return an additional portion of such 56 penalty received to the school district.

A. 11246 12 1 (f) An imposition of liability under this section shall not be deemed 2 a conviction as an operator and shall not be made part of the operating 3 record of the person upon whom such liability is imposed nor shall it be 4 used for insurance purposes in the provision of motor vehicle insurance 5 coverage. 6 (g) 1. A notice of liability shall be sent by the respective law 7 enforcement agency by first class mail to each person alleged to be 8 liable as an owner for a violation of subdivision (a) of section eleven 9 hundred seventy-four of this title pursuant to this section. Personal 10 delivery on the owner shall not be required. A manual or automatic 11 record of mailing prepared in the ordinary course of business shall be 12 prima facie evidence of the facts contained therein. 13 2. A notice of liability shall contain the name and address of the 14 person alleged to be liable as an owner for a violation of subdivision 15 (a) of section eleven hundred seventy-four of this title pursuant to 16 this section, the registration number of the vehicle involved in such 17 violation, the location where such violation took place, the date and 18 time of such violation and the identification number of the camera which 19 recorded the violation or other document locator number. 20 3. The notice of liability shall contain information advising the 21 person charged of the manner and the time in which he may contest the 22 liability alleged in the notice. Such notice of liability shall also 23 contain a warning to advise the persons charged that failure to contest 24 in the manner and time provided shall be deemed an admission of liabil- 25 ity and that a default judgement may be entered thereon. 26 4. The notice of liability shall be prepared and mailed by the respec- 27 tive law enforcement agency having jurisdiction over the location where 28 the violation occurred. 29 (h) Adjudication of the liability imposed upon owners by this section 30 shall be by a traffic violations bureau established pursuant to section 31 three hundred seventy of the general municipal law or, if there be none, 32 by the court having jurisdiction over traffic infractions, except that 33 any city which has established or designated an administrative tribunal 34 to hear and determine owner liability established by this article for 35 failure to comply with traffic-control indications shall use such tribu- 36 nal to adjudicate the liability imposed by this section. 37 (i) If an owner receives a notice of liability pursuant to this 38 section for any time period during which the vehicle was reported to a 39 police department as having been stolen, it shall be a valid defense to 40 an allegation of liability for a violation of subdivision (a) of section 41 eleven hundred seventy-four of this title pursuant to this section that 42 the vehicle had been reported to the police as stolen prior to the time 43 the violation occurred and had not been recovered by such time. For 44 purposes of asserting the defense provided by this subdivision it shall 45 be sufficient that a certified copy of the police report on the stolen 46 vehicle be sent by first class mail to the traffic violations bureau, 47 court having jurisdiction or parking violations bureau. 48 (j) Where the adjudication of liability imposed upon owners pursuant 49 to this section is by an administrative tribunal, traffic violations 50 bureau, or a court having jurisdiction, an owner who is a lessor of a 51 vehicle to which a notice of liability was issued pursuant to subdivi- 52 sion (g) of this section shall not be liable for the violation of subdi- 53 vision (a) of section eleven hundred seventy-four of this title, 54 provided that he or she sends to the administrative tribunal, traffic 55 violations bureau, or court having jurisdiction a copy of the rental, 56 lease or other such contract document covering such vehicle on the date

A. 11246 13 1 of the violation, with the name and address of the lessee clearly legi- 2 ble, within thirty-seven days after receiving notice from the bureau or 3 court of the date and time of such violation, together with the other 4 information contained in the original notice of liability. Failure to 5 send such information within such thirty-seven day time period shall 6 render the owner liable for the penalty prescribed by this section. 7 Where the lessor complies with the provisions of this paragraph, the 8 lessee of such vehicle on the date of such violation shall be deemed to 9 be the owner of such vehicle for purposes of this section, shall be 10 subject to liability for the violation of subdivision (a) of section 11 eleven hundred seventy-four of this title pursuant to this section and 12 shall be sent a notice of liability pursuant to subdivision (g) of this 13 section. 14 (k) 1. If the owner liable for a violation of subdivision (a) of 15 section eleven hundred seventy-four of this title pursuant to this 16 section was not the operator of the vehicle at the time of the 17 violation, the owner may maintain an action for indemnification against 18 the operator. 19 2. Notwithstanding any other provision of this section, no owner of a 20 vehicle shall be subject to a monetary fine imposed pursuant to this 21 section if the operator of such vehicle was operating such vehicle with- 22 out the consent of the owner at the time such operator was found to have 23 been overtaking or passing a school bus. For purposes of this subdivi- 24 sion there shall be a presumption that the operator of such vehicle was 25 operating such vehicle with the consent of the owner at the time such 26 operator was found to have been overtaking or passing a school bus. 27 (l) Nothing in this section shall be construed to limit the liability 28 of an operator of a vehicle for any violation of subdivision (a) of 29 section eleven hundred seventy-four of this title. 30 (m) In any school district which adopts a school bus safety camera 31 program pursuant to subdivision (a) of this section, such school 32 district shall submit an annual report on the results of the use of its 33 school bus safety cameras to the governor, the temporary president of 34 the senate and the speaker of the assembly on or before June first, two 35 thousand nineteen and on the same date in each succeeding year in which 36 the demonstration program is operable. Such report shall include, but 37 not be limited to: 38 1. a description of the number of buses and routes where school bus 39 safety cameras were used; 40 2. the aggregate number of annual incidents of violations of subdivi- 41 sion (a) of section eleven hundred seventy-four of this title within the 42 districts; 43 3. the number of violations recorded by school bus safety cameras in 44 the aggregate and on a daily, weekly and monthly basis; 45 4. the total number of notices of liability issued for violations 46 recorded by such systems; 47 5. the number of fines and total amount of fines paid after first 48 notice of liability issued for violations recorded by such systems; 49 6. the number of violations adjudicated and results of such adjudi- 50 cations including breakdowns of dispositions made for violations 51 recorded by such systems; 52 7. the total amount of revenue realized by such school district from 53 such adjudications; 54 8. expenses incurred by such school district in connection with the 55 program; and 56 9. quality of the adjudication process and its results.

A. 11246 14 1 (n) It shall be a defense to any prosecution for a violation of subdi- 2 vision (a) of section eleven hundred seventy-four of this title that 3 such school bus safety cameras were malfunctioning at the time of the 4 alleged violation. 5 § 5.

In selecting a school speed zone 33 in which to install and operate a photo speed violation monitoring 34 system, the city of New York shall consider criteria including, but not 35 limited to, the speed data, crash history, and the roadway geometry 36 applicable to such school speed zone. Such city shall prioritize the 37 placement of photo speed violation monitoring systems in school speed 38 zones based upon speed data or the crash history of a school speed zone. 39 A photo speed violation monitoring system shall not be installed or 40 operated on a controlled-access highway exit ramp or within three 41 hundred feet along a highway that continues from the end of a cont- 42 rolled-access highway exit ramp. 43 § 6.

The city [~~may~~] shall install signs giving notice that a 51 photo speed violation monitoring system is in use to be mounted on 52 advance warning signs notifying approaching motor vehicle operators of 53 such upcoming school speed zone and/or on speed limit signs applicable 54 within such school speed zone, in conformance with standards established 55 in the MUTCD. Such advance warning signs shall also, to the extent 56 authorized by the MUTCD, contain the words "speed camera ahead" and be

(a) 1. Notwithstanding any other 7 provision of law, the city of Buffalo is hereby authorized to establish 8 a demonstration program imposing monetary liability on the owner of a 9 vehicle for failure of an operator thereof to comply with posted maximum 10 speed limits in a school speed zone within the city (i) when a school 11 speed limit is in effect as provided in paragraphs one and two of subdi- 12 vision (c) of section eleven hundred eighty of this article or (ii) when 13 other speed limits are in effect as provided in subdivision (b), (d), 14 (f) or (g) of section eleven hundred eighty of this article during the 15 following times: (A) on school days during school hours and one hour 16 before and one hour after the school day, and (B) a period during 17 student activities at the school and up to thirty minutes immediately 18 before and up to thirty minutes immediately after such student activ- 19 ities.

A. 11246 67 1 notes, or other obligations theretofore issued for such purposes. 2 Notwithstanding the foregoing limit on the amount of bonds that the 3 authority may issue to pay the financeable costs described in paragraph 4 (a) of subdivision twelve of section thirty-six hundred fifty-one of 5 this title, the authority shall have the power to issue up to an addi- 6 tional seven hundred ninety million dollars of bonds, excluding bonds, 7 notes, or other obligations issued to refund or otherwise repay bonds, 8 notes, or other obligations theretofore issued for such purpose, to pay 9 such costs if the county's indebtedness to be refunded, repaid or 10 restructured with the payment of such bonds was originally incurred by 11 the county to pay tax certiorari settlements or assignments of any kind 12 to which the county is a party. Provided further, the aggregate princi- 13 pal amounts of such bonds issued to pay the financeable costs described 14 in paragraph (c) of subdivision twelve of section thirty-six hundred 15 fifty-one of this title, which resulted from certiorari proceedings 16 commenced prior to June first, two thousand, shall not exceed four 17 hundred million dollars, excluding bonds, notes, or other obligations 18 issued to refund or otherwise repay bonds, notes, or other obligations 19 theretofore issued for such purposes. And, provided further, the aggre- 20 gate principal amounts of such bonds issued to pay the financeable coun- 21 ty costs described in paragraph (c) of subdivision twelve of section 22 thirty-six hundred fifty-one of this title, which resulted from certior- 23 ari proceedings commenced on or after June first, two thousand, shall 24 not exceed [~~four~~] eight hundred million dollars in the aggregate [~~for~~ 25 ~~the fiscal years two thousand through two thousand seven, however, of~~ 26 ~~said four hundred million dollars only fifteen million dollars may be~~ 27 ~~issued in the fiscal year two thousand six and ten million dollars may~~ 28 ~~be issued in the fiscal year two thousand seven~~], excluding bonds, 29 notes, or other obligations issued to refund or otherwise repay bonds, 30 notes, or other obligations theretofore issued for such purposes. Effec- 31 tive in the year two thousand six, upon request of the county, the 32 authority shall issue, in the amount requested, bonds to pay tax 33 certiorari settlements or judgments of any kind to which the county is a 34 party, not to exceed fifteen million dollars; and effective in the year 35 two thousand seven, upon request of the county, the authority shall 36 issue, in the amount requested, bonds to pay tax certiorari settlements 37 or judgments of any kind to which the county is a party, not to exceed 38 ten million dollars. Whenever this title establishes a limit on the 39 principal amount of bonds that the authority is authorized to issue, 40 there shall not be counted against such limit (i) amounts determined by 41 the authority as reasonable to be used to pay the cost of issuing such 42 bonds, (ii) the amount of bonds that would constitute interest under the 43 Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and (iii) amounts determined 44 by the authority as necessary to establish any reserves. 45 The authority shall have the power from time to time to refund any 46 bonds of the authority by the issuance of new bonds, whether the bonds 47 to be refunded have or have not matured, and may issue bonds partly to 48 refund bonds of the authority then outstanding and partly to pay the 49 financeable costs pursuant to section thirty-six hundred fifty-five of 50 this title.

The authority is authorized to issue its bonds for a period ending 4 not later than December thirty-first, two thousand [~~seven~~] twenty-one. 5 The authority may issue bonds to refund bonds previously issued without 6 regard to the limitation in the first sentence of this subdivision, but 7 in no event shall any bonds of the authority finally mature later than 8 January thirty-first, two thousand [~~thirty-six~~] forty-one. Notwith- 9 standing any other provision of law, no bond of the authority shall 10 mature more than thirty years from the date of its issue. 11 PART D 12 Section 1.

The 38 amounts from such levies shall be placed in a separate fund hereby 39 established as the disputed assessment fund which shall be maintained 40 and administered by the Nassau county treasurer; provided, however, that 41 nothing herein shall prevent the county from paying into the disputed 42 assessment fund monies from other funds or sources for the purposes 43 specified in this section. The monies collected in such fund shall be 44 used solely for the purposes specified in this section and shall not be 45 deemed county revenues. 46 e.

Severability. If any provision of this act or if any application 9 thereof to any person or circumstances is held invalid, the remainder of 10 this act and the application of the provision to other persons and 11 circumstances shall not be affected thereby. 12 § 4. This act shall take effect immediately. 13 § 2. Severability.

If any clause, sentence, paragraph, subdivi- 19 sion, section or part of this act shall be adjudged by any court of 20 competent jurisdiction to be invalid, such judgment shall not affect, 21 impair, or invalidate the remainder thereof, but shall be confined in 22 its operation to the clause, sentence, paragraph, subdivision, section 23 or part thereof directly involved in the controversy in which such judg- 24 ment shall have been rendered. It is hereby declared to be the intent of 25 the legislature that this act would have been enacted even if such 26 invalid provisions had not been included herein. 27 § 3.
