AN ACT in relation to legalizing, validating, ratifying  and  confirming
  actions  of  the  Mattituck-Cutchogue  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
Mattituck-Cutchogue union free school district approved several  capital
improvement  projects  which  were  designated  by  the  state education
department as project numbers 04-0884, 04-0885 and 05-0486.    In  addi-
tion, 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 Mattituck-Cutchogue 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 04-0884, 04-0885 and 05-0486, and all acts inci-
dental thereto are hereby legalized, validated, ratified and  confirmed,
notwithstanding  any  failure  to  comply  with  the approval and filing
provisions of the education law or any other law or any other  statutory
authority,  rule  or  regulation,  in  relation to any omissions, error,
defect, irregularity or illegality in such proceedings  had  and  taken,
and  provided  further that any amount due and payable to the Mattituck-
Cutchogue union free school district  for  school  years  prior  to  the
2016--2017 school year as a result of this act shall be paid pursuant to

 EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
