1 Section 1. Section 22-c of the state finance law is amended by adding

5 the legislature as part of the annual executive budget, five-year capi-
6 tal plans for the state university of New York state-operated campuses
7 and city university of New York senior colleges. Such plans shall
8 provide for the annual appropriation of capital funds to cover one
9 hundred percent of the annual critical maintenance needs identified by
10 each university system, and may include funds for new infrastructure or
11 other major capital initiatives, provided that such funding for new
12 infrastructure or other major capital initiatives shall not count

15 ical maintenance needs due to the limitation imposed by article five-B
16 of this chapter, the director of the budget shall develop five-year
17 capital plans whereby the implementation of each capital plan would
18 annually reduce the overall facility condition index (FCI) for each
19 university system. For the purposes of this subdivision, "facility
20 condition index" shall mean an industry benchmark that measures the
21 ratio of deferred maintenance dollars to replacement dollars for the
