        Introduced  by  M. of A. MURRAY, BLANKENBUSH, RAIA, PALMESANO, McKEVITT,

          McDONOUGH,  GOODELL,  LOPEZ  -- Multi-Sponsored by -- M. of A. OAKS --
          read once and referred to the Committee on Governmental Operations
 
        AN ACT to amend the legislative law, in relation to  requiring  detailed
          fiscal impact notes on certain legislation
 
          The  People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
        bly, do enact as follows:
 
     1    Section 1.  Section 51 of the legislative law, as added by chapter 985
     2  of the laws of 1983, is amended to read as follows:
     3    § 51. Fiscal impact notes on bills affecting  political  subdivisions.
     4  1.  For  the  purpose  of this section, the term "political subdivision"
     5  means any county,  city,  town,  village,  special  district  or  school
     6  district.
     7    2.  [The  legislature shall by concurrent resolution of the senate and
     8  assembly prescribe rules requiring fiscal notes to accompany, on a sepa-
     9  rate form, bills and amendments to bills, except as otherwise prescribed
    10  by such rules, which] A  bill  that  would  [substantially]  affect  the
    11  revenues  or  expenses,  or  both,  of  any  political subdivision shall
    12  contain a detailed fiscal impact note stating the estimated annual  cost
    13  to  the  political subdivision affected and the source of such estimate.
    14  The fiscal impact note must clearly identify the funding source of  such
    15  annual  cost  to  the political subdivision. An omission of such funding
    16  source in the fiscal impact note, shall invalidate such bill.
    17    3. Fiscal notes shall not, however, be required for bills: (a) subject
    18  to the provisions of section fifty of this chapter, or  (b)  accompanied
    19  by  special  home  rule requests submitted by political subdivisions, or
    20  (c) which provide discretionary authority to political subdivisions,  or
    21  (d) submitted pursuant to section twenty-four of the state finance law.
    22    4.  If the estimate or estimates contained in a fiscal impact note are
    23  inaccurate and result in an annual net additional cost to any  political
 
         EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                              [ ] is old law to be omitted.
                                                                   LBD00836-01-7
        A. 3888                             2
 
     1  subdivision in excess of ten thousand dollars or an aggregate annual net
     2  additional cost to all political subdivisions within the state in excess
     3  of  one million dollars, such inaccuracies shall [not affect, impair or]
     4  invalidate such bill.
     5    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
