Introduced by M. of A. STIRPE -- read once and referred to the Committee
on Education
AN ACT to validate certain acts of the North Syracuse central school
district with regard to certain capital improvement projects
The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-bly, do enact as follows:
1 Section 1. Legislative intent. The legislature hereby finds that the
2 North Syracuse central school district approved capital improvement
3 projects which were designated by the state education department as
4 project numbers 5037-010, 0003-007, 0011-012, 7999-001, 0016-019 and
5 0009-014. In addition, the projects were eligible for certain state aid.
6 The legislature further finds that due to ministerial error, a required
7 filing for eligibility for such aid was not made by the district in a
8 timely manner making the district ineligible for certain aid. The legis-
9 lature further finds that without such aid, the capital improvement
10 projects will impose an additional, unanticipated hardship on district
11 taxpayers.
12 § 2. All the acts done and proceedings heretofore had and taken or
13 caused to be had and taken by the North Syracuse central school district
14 and by all its officers or agents relating to or in connection with
15 certain final cost reports to be filed with the state education depart-
16 ment for projects 5037-010, 0003-007, 0011-012, 7999-001, 0016-019 and
17 0009-014, and all acts incidental thereto are hereby legalized, vali-
18 dated, ratified and confirmed, notwithstanding any failure to comply
19 with the approval and filing provisions of the education law or any
20 other law or any other statutory authority, rule or regulation, in
21 relation to any omission, error, defect, irregularity or illegality in
22 such proceedings had and taken.
23 § 3. The education department is hereby directed to consider the
24 approved costs of the aforementioned projects as valid and proper obli-
25 gations of the North Syracuse central school district.
26 § 4. This act shall take effect immediately.
