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.
