AN  ACT  in relation to legalizing, validating, ratifying and confirming
  actions of the Port Washington union free school district with respect
  to certain building aid contracts

  THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND  ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  Section  1.  Legislative intent. The legislature hereby finds that the
Port Washington union free  school  district  approved  several  capital
improvement  projects  which  were  designated  by  the  state education
department as project numbers 0001-006,  0002-001,  0003-004,  0005-008,
0006-004,  and  0007-005.  In  addition,  the projects were eligible for
certain state aid. The legislature further finds that due to ministerial
error, a required filing for eligibility for such aid was  not  made  by
the  district  in  a  timely  manner  making the district ineligible for
certain aid. The legislature further finds that without  such  aid,  the
capital  improvement  projects  will impose an additional, unanticipated
hardship on district taxpayers.
  S 2. All the acts done and proceedings heretofore  had  and  taken  or
caused  to  be  had  and  taken by the Port Washington union free school
district and by all its officers or agents relating to or in  connection
with  certain  final  cost  reports to be filed with the state education
department  for  projects  0001-006,   0002-001,   0003-004,   0005-008,
0006-004,  and  0007-005,  and  all  acts  incidental thereto are hereby
legalized, validated, ratified and confirmed, notwithstanding any  fail-
ure  to  comply with the approval and filing provisions of the education
law or any other law or any other statutory  authority,  rule  or  regu-
lation,  in  relation  to  any omissions, error, defect, irregularity or

 EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                      [ ] is old law to be omitted.
