        AN  ACT authorizing the North Shore central school district to establish
          a power plant tax assessment reserve fund
 
          The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and  Assem-
        bly, do enact as follows:
 
     1    Section 1. Legislative findings. The legislature hereby finds that the
     2  tax  certiorari  settlement  between  Nassau  County and the Long Island
     3  Power Authority regarding the Glenwood Landing Power Plant may result in
     4  instability in the real property tax base and the budget  of  the  North
     5  Shore  central  school  district  due  to a decrease in revenue or taxes
     6  and/or significant shift in tax liability to the taxpayers.
     7    § 2. Definitions. As used in this act:
     8    (a) "Board of education" or "board" shall mean the board of  education
     9  of the North Shore central school district.
    10    (b) "Power plant tax assessment reserve fund" or "fund" shall mean the
    11  power  plant  tax  assessment  reserve fund established pursuant to this
    12  act.
    13    (c) "School district" or "district" shall mean the North Shore central
    14  school district.
    15    § 3. Power plant tax assessment reserve fund. The board  of  education
    16  is  hereby  authorized to establish a power plant tax assessment reserve
    17  fund to lessen or prevent increases in the school district's real  prop-
    18  erty  tax  levy  and/or  tax rate resulting from decreases in revenue or
    19  taxes or a significant shift in tax liability due to  a  tax  certiorari
    20  settlement  or  judgment  provided,  however, that no such fund shall be
    21  established unless approved by a majority vote of the voters present and
 
         EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                              [ ] is old law to be omitted.
                                                                   LBD08722-09-2
        A. 6210--B                          2
 
     1  voting on a separate ballot proposition therefor  at  either  a  special
     2  district  meeting which the board of education may call for such purpose
     3  or at the annual district  meeting  and  election,  to  be  noticed  and
     4  conducted  in either case in accordance with article 41 of the education
     5  law. Such separate proposition shall set  forth  the  maximum  allowable
     6  balance  to  be  deposited  and  held  in the power plant tax assessment
     7  reserve fund. Moneys shall be paid into and withdrawn from the fund  and
     8  the fund shall be administered as follows:
     9    (a) For any school district fiscal year commencing after the effective
    10  date  of  this  act  and  after the establishment of the power plant tax
    11  assessment reserve fund, the board of  education  may  receive  payments
    12  into  its  power  plant  tax assessment reserve fund from any sources of
    13  revenue resulting from a settlement with the Long Island Power  Authori-
    14  ty;  provided  that  no payment into the fund shall cause the balance of
    15  the fund to exceed the amount approved in the ballot proposition  pursu-
    16  ant to this subdivision.
    17    (b)  Moneys  may  be  withdrawn  from  the  power plant tax assessment
    18  reserve fund by resolution of the board  for  any  fiscal  year,  to  be
    19  expended  for  any lawful purpose, to lessen or prevent increases in the
    20  district's tax levy and/or tax rate. Withdrawals from the fund shall  be
    21  disclosed  in a manner consistent with the required disclosures of simi-
    22  lar reserve funds held by the district, including  disclosures  required
    23  by the property tax report card prepared by the district pursuant to the
    24  provisions  of  subdivision  7 of section 1716 of the education law; and
    25  deposits and withdrawals made in each fiscal year shall  be  subject  to
    26  the district's annual budget approval process.
    27    (c) The moneys in the power plant tax assessment reserve fund shall be
    28  deposited,  invested  and  accounted  for  in the manner provided for in
    29  subdivisions 2 and 6 of section 3651 and section 3652 of  the  education
    30  law.
    31    § 4. This act shall take effect immediately.
