BILL NUMBER: S45 TITLE OF BILL : An act to amend the education law, in relation to the adoption of a school district budget upon the voters failing to approve a proposed school district budget PURPOSE : The purpose of this legislation is to amend the education law to require the adoption of a school district budget upon the voters failing to approve a proposed school district budget. SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS : Section one of the bill would amend subdivisions four and five of section 2022 of the Education Law to require that the sole trustee, trustees or board of education shall adopt a final budget also called a contingency (or austerity) budget if the voters fail to approve the proposed school district budget. Provisions allowing for the resubmission of the original or a revised budget to the voters would be removed from the law. This legislation would not change the manner in which a final budget is adopted when the proposed budget is not approved by the voters. Section two is an effective date section.
