S T A T E O F N E W Y O R K ________________________________________________________________________ 2707 2011-2012 Regular Sessions I N S E N A T E January 28, 2011 ___________ Introduced by Sens. SALAND, FLANAGAN, HANNON, LITTLE, MARTINS -- read twice and ordered printed, and when printed to be committed to the Committee on Finance AN ACT to amend the general municipal law and the education law, in relation to requiring the state to fund certain programs mandated for municipal corporations and school districts; and to amend the educa- tion law, in relation to the effect of mandates on school districts THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM- BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. Legislative intent. State mandated programs, unlike local service decisions, place local taxpayers and local officials in the position of paying for services that they do not control. Increasingly, however, the state has set local priorities and forced municipal taxing decisions by mandating services, programs, and standards. As a result, many local governments and school districts are today in an acutely difficult fiscal situation. Thus, in order to prevent irresponsible state actions which prevent localities from making their own decisions, and which force unwanted local property tax increases, it is necessary to ensure that state mandates will not be forced on localities and school districts unless they are adequately funded. S 2. The general municipal law is amended by adding a new section 25 to read as follows: S 25. FUNDING OF MANDATES. 1. DEFINITIONS. AS USED IN THIS SECTION, THE FOLLOWING TERMS SHALL HAVE THE FOLLOWING MEANINGS UNLESS THE CONTEXT SHALL OTHERWISE REQUIRE: (A) "MANDATE" MEANS: (I) ANY STATE LAW, RULE, OR REGULATION WHICH CREATES A NEW PROGRAM OR REQUIRES A HIGHER LEVEL OF SERVICE FOR AN EXISTING PROGRAM WHICH A MUNICIPAL CORPORATION IS REQUIRED TO PROVIDE; OR EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [ ] is old law to be omitted.
