        AN ACT to amend the education law, in relation to establishing residency
          requirements for school district superintendents
 
          The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and  Assem-
        bly, do enact as follows:
 

     1    Section 1. The education law is amended by adding a new section 1526-a
     2  to read as follows:
     3    §  1526-a.  District  superintendent; residency. Every school district
     4  superintendent shall be a resident of the  state.    Provided,  however,
     5  that  the  residency  requirement of this section may be waived for good
     6  cause shown for a  period  of  one  year  following  a  superintendent's
     7  initial  employment  by  the  school district. Such waiver shall only be
     8  granted upon application to and upon the written consent of the  commis-
     9  sioner.   Provided, further, that every new and renewal contract for the
    10  employment of a school superintendent shall include  the  provisions  of
    11  this  section  and  a  provision  that  the  failure  to comply with the

    12  provisions of this section shall void such contract.
    13    § 2. This act shall take effect on the first of July  next  succeeding
    14  the  date  on which it shall have become a law and shall apply to school
    15  district superintendents commencing employment or renewing their employ-
    16  ment contracts on or after such date.
