AN ACT making appropriations for the support of government
AID TO LOCALITIES BUDGET
THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. a) The several amounts specified in this chapter for aid to
localities, or so much thereof as shall be sufficient to accomplish the
purposes designated by the appropriations, are hereby appropriated and
authorized to be paid as hereinafter provided, to the respective public
officers and for the several purposes specified.
b) Where applicable, appropriations made by this chapter for expendi-
tures from federal grants for aid to localities may be allocated
for spending from federal grants for any grant period beginning, during,
or prior to, the state fiscal year beginning on April 1, 2019 except as
otherwise noted.
c) The several amounts named herein, or so much thereof as shall be
sufficient to accomplish the purpose designated, being the undisbursed
and/or unexpended balances of the prior year's appropriations, are here-
by reappropriated from the same funds and made available for the same
purposes as the prior year's appropriations, unless herein amended, for
the fiscal year beginning April 1, 2019. Certain reappropriations in
this chapter are shown using abbreviated text, with three leader dots
(an ellipsis) followed by three spaces (... ) used to indicate where
existing law that is being continued is not shown. However, unless a
EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
[ ] is old law to be omitted.
LBD12553-02-9
2 12553-02-9
change is clearly indicated by the use of brackets [ ] for deletions and
underscores for additions, the purposes, amounts, funding source and all
other aspects pertinent to each item of appropriation shall be as last
appropriated.
For the purpose of complying with the state finance law, the year,
chapter and section of the last act reappropriating a former original
appropriation or any part thereof is, unless otherwise indicated, chap-
ter 53, section 1, of the laws of 2018 and, for the education depart-
ment, chapter 54, section 2, of the laws of 2018.
d) No moneys appropriated by this chapter shall be available for
payment until a certificate of approval has been issued by the director
of the budget, who shall file such certificate with the department of
audit and control, the chairperson of the senate finance committee and
the chairperson of the assembly ways and means committee.
e) Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary, to
maintain a balanced budget in the event that the annual estimate for tax
receipts for fiscal year 2019-20 is reduced by $500,000,000 or more
compared to estimate in the fiscal year 2019-20 executive budget finan-
cial plan, the appropriations and related cash disbursements for all
general fund and state special revenue fund aid to localities appropri-
ations made by this chapter shall be uniformly reduced by the percentage
set forth in a written allocation plan prepared by the director of the
budget, provided, however, that the uniform percentage reduction shall
not exceed 3 percent. The following types of appropriations shall be
exempt from such uniform reduction: (a) public assistance payments for
families and individuals and payments for eligible aged, blind and disa-
bled persons related to supplemental social security; (b) any reductions
that would violate federal law; (c) payments of debt service and related
expenses for which the state is constitutionally obligated to pay debt
service or is contractually obligated to pay debt service, subject to an
appropriation, including where the state has a contingent contractual
obligation; (d) payments the state is obligated to make pursuant to
court orders or judgments; (e) payments for CUNY senior colleges; (f)
school aid, (g) medicaid and (h) payments from the community projects
fund. Such reductions to the general fund and special revenue fund
appropriations made by this chapter and related cash disbursements shall
commence within 10 days following the publication of a financial plan
required under sections 22 or 23 of the state finance law stating that
the annual estimate for tax receipts for fiscal year 2019-20 is reduced
by $500,000,000 or more compared to estimate in the fiscal year 2019-20
executive budget financial plan, and shall be uniformly reduced in
accordance with a written allocation plan prepared by the director of
the budget, which shall be filed with the state comptroller, the chair-
man of the senate finance committee and the chairman of the assembly
ways and means committee. Such written allocation plan shall include a
summary of the methodology for calculating the percentage reductions to
the payments from non-exempt appropriations and cash disbursements and
the reasons for any exemptions, and a detailed schedule of the
reductions and exemptions. The director of the budget shall prepare
appropriately reduced certificates, which shall be filed with the state
comptroller, the chair of the senate finance committee and the chair of
the assembly ways and means committee. On March 31, 2020, the director
of the budget shall calculate the difference, if any, between the annual
estimate in tax receipts contained in the fiscal year 2020 executive
budget financial plan and actual tax collections for fiscal year 2019-
20. If actual tax receipts for fiscal year 2019-20 were not less than
3 12553-02-9
$500,000,000 below the annual estimate in tax receipts contained in the
executive budget financial plan for fiscal year 2019-20, then the
amounts withheld pursuant to the written allocation plan prepared by the
director shall be payable as soon as practicable thereafter in the
fiscal year 2021-22. Notwithstanding any inconsistent provision of law,
rule or regulation, the effectiveness of the provisions of sections 2807
and 3614 of the public health law, section 18 of chapter 2 of the laws
of 1988, and subdivision (h) of section 505.14 of title 18 of the NYCRR,
as they relate to time frames for notice, approval or certification of
rates of payment, are hereby suspended and without force or effect for
purposes of implementing the written allocation plan prepared by the
director to reduce the general fund and special revenue fund appropri-
ations made by this chapter and related cash disbursements.
f) Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary, if at
any time during the 2019-20 state fiscal year the budget director deter-
mines that the general fund is reasonably calculated to end such state
fiscal year out of balance, the budget director is hereby authorized to
implement a plan to unilaterally reduce appropriation authority
contained herein and concomitant cash disbursements therefore in a
manner which the budget director determines would bring the general fund
into balance. Provided however, that such reductions shall not be made
to (a) appropriations or payments which the budget director determines
are public assistance payments for families and individuals, and
payments for eligible aged, blind and disabled persons related to
supplemental social security; (b) any reductions which the budget direc-
tor determines would violate federal law; (c) payments of debt service
and related expenses for which the budget director determines the state
is constitutionally obligated to pay debt service or is contractually
obligated to pay debt service, subject to an appropriation, including
where the state has a contingent contractual obligation; and (d)
payments which the budget director determines the state is obligated to
make pursuant to court orders or judgments. To the extent any individual
or entity is entitled to any cash disbursement authorized by any appro-
priation contained herein, such entitlement shall be reduced commensu-
rate with reductions made by the budget director in accordance with this
provision. Provided however, that this provision shall have no force and
effect in the event the (i) legislature enacts the chapter or chapters
of law identical to the legislation amending the state finance law and
referred to as the temporary offset of deficit drivers act as submitted
by the governor pursuant to article VII of the New York state constitu-
tion as legislative bill numbers S.1505 and A.2005, and (ii) the budget
director notifies the office of the state comptroller in writing that
the legislature enacted the legislation referenced in (i) on or before
April 1, 2019.
g) The appropriations contained in this chapter shall be available for
the fiscal year beginning on April 1, 2019 except as otherwise noted.

standing any other provision of law, any
claims for child care assistance made by a
social services district for expenditures
made during a particular federal fiscal
year, other than claims made under title
XX of the federal social security act and
under the food stamp employment and train-
ing program, shall be counted against the
social services district's block grant
allocation for that federal fiscal year.
A social services district shall expend its
allocation from the block grant in accord-
ance with the applicable provisions in
federal law and regulations relating to
the federal funds included in the state
block grant for child care and the regu-
lations of the office of children and

its maintenance of effort requirement in
each applicable federal fiscal year. Funds

critical nonpersonal services costs for
foster care programs as determined by the
office. Social services districts must
adjust the amount of payments made for
care provided by congregate care and
foster boarding home programs and to
foster parents to reflect the cost of
living adjustments in the manner specified
by the office. Each authorized agency
operating a congregate care or foster
boarding home program in New York state
for which the office sets a maximum state
aid rate pursuant to section 398-a of the

the time and in a manner to be determined
by the office, a written certification,
attesting that the funds received for the
continuation of the cost of living adjust-
ment to the maximum state aid rate that
became effective April 1, 2008 for that
program will be or were used solely in
accordance with the requirements of the
cost of living adjustment established by
the office.
Notwithstanding any inconsistent provision
of law, for the period commencing on April
1, 2019 and ending March 31, 2020 the
commissioner shall not apply any cost of
living adjustment for the purpose of
establishing rates of payments, contracts
or any other form of reimbursement.
Within the amounts appropriated herein,
state reimbursement to each social
services district for services identified
herein that are otherwise reimbursable by
the state from April 1, 2019 through March
31, 2020 shall be limited to a district
allocation, hereinafter referred to as the
district's block grant allocation.
Notwithstanding any other provision of
law, such block grant allocation shall be
based, in part, on each district's claims
for such costs, adjusted by the applicable
cost allocation methodology and net of any
retroactive payments for the 12 month
period ending June 30, 2018 that are
submitted on or before January 2, 2019

tor of the budget. Any portion of a social
services district's allocation from funds
appropriated herein not claimed by such
district during the state fiscal year may
be used by such district for expenditures
on preventive services provided pursuant
to section 409-a of the social services
law, independent living services and
aftercare services provided pursuant to
regulations of the department of family
assistance, claimed by such district
during the next state fiscal year up to
the amount remaining from the district's
foster care block grant allocation,
provided however, that any claims for such
services during the next state fiscal year
in excess of such amount shall be subject
to 62 percent state reimbursement exclu-
sive of any federal funds made available
for such purposes, in accordance with
directives of the department of family
assistance and subject to the approval of
the director of the budget. Any claims
submitted by a social services district
for reimbursement for a particular state
fiscal year for which the social services
district does not receive state or federal
reimbursement during that state fiscal
year may not be claimed against that
district's block grant apportionment for
the next state fiscal year.
The office of children and family services,
with the approval of the director of the
budget, may reduce a district's block
grant allocation by the state share
decrease related to federal retroactive
reimbursement for such foster care
services identified herein. The office,
with the approval of the director of the
budget, may reduce a district's block
grant allocation by the state share of
disallowances or sanctions taken against
the district pursuant to the social
services law or federal law.
Notwithstanding any other provision of law,
the state shall not be responsible for
reimbursing a social services district and
a district shall not seek state reimburse-
ment for any portion of any state disal-
lowance or sanction taken against the
social services district, or any federal
307 12553-02-9
DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE
OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES
AID TO LOCALITIES 2019-20
disallowance attributable to final federal
agency decisions or to settlement made, on
or after July 1, 1995, when such disallow-
ance or sanction results from the failure
of the social services district to comply
with federal or state requirements,
including, but not limited to, failure to
document eligibility for federal or state
funds in the case record; provided, howev-
er, if the office determines that any
federal disallowance for services provided
between January 1, 1999 and May 31, 1999
results solely from the late enactment of
the state legislation implementing the
federal adoption and safe families act,
the state shall be solely responsible for
the full amount of the disallowance or
sanction; provided, further, however, this
provision shall be deemed to apply both
prospectively and retroactively regardless
of whether such sanctions or disallowances
are for services provided or claims made
prior to or after April 1, 2019.
Notwithstanding any other provision of law,
any federal disallowance resulting from a
federal title IV-E eligibility review or
audit that uses extrapolated statistic
techniques shall be passed along by the
state to any and all social services
districts that the office of children and
family services has determined have not
complied with the title IV-E eligibility
requirements or have not taken the neces-
sary actions to ensure compliance with
such requirements including, but not
limited to, failing to: assess and fully
document all the criteria and have readily
available all the necessary documents to
establish and continue title IV-E eligi-
bility for all title IV-E eligible chil-
dren within the required time frames;
claim title IV-E funding only for cases
that meet all of the title IV-E eligibil-
ity criteria; and fully implement the
social services payment system on or
before April 1, 2005 for all direct and
voluntary agency foster care services.
Notwithstanding any law to the contrary, the
office of children and family services
shall impose on social services districts
any federal disallowance issued against
308 12553-02-9
DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE
OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES
AID TO LOCALITIES 2019-20
the state as a result of a federal title
IV-E secondary eligibility review regard-
less of the date the children may have
entered foster care, the date the eligi-
bility or payment errors occurred, or the
filing date of any federal claims for
reimbursement; provided, however, that the
state shall be responsible for the disal-
lowed costs and expenditures related to
the placement of children in a facility
operated by the office of children and
family services, which shall be determined
in the same manner as the disallowed costs
and expenditures for social services
districts other than the city of New York.
In order to reimburse the federal govern-
ment for the full amount of any disallow-
ance imposed on the state by the federal
administration for children and families
within the timeframes necessary to avoid
any potential interest payments on such
amount, the office of children and family
services is authorized to immediately
offset funds otherwise due to each
district for a pro rata share of the total
disallowed costs based on the percentage
of applicable federal title IV-E claims
made by that district for the relevant
time period as compared to the total
applicable statewide title IV-E claims.
The amount of the offset against each
district will be adjusted, if necessary,
upon completion of the disallowance allo-
cation process. The final allocation of
the amount of any federal disallowance
resulting from a title IV-E secondary
eligibility review shall be allocated
among the districts so that each district
shall be responsible for the amount
attributable to each of the district's
children or cases that are determined by
the federal review to be unallowable. Each
district shall also be responsible for a
portion of the federal extrapolated disal-
lowance amount based on the relative error
rate for the district. The city of New
York's error rate will be based on the
federal sample and federal statistics. For
all social services districts other than
the city of New York, the error rate will
be based on a review conducted by the
309 12553-02-9
DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE
OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES
AID TO LOCALITIES 2019-20
district of a sample of children and/or
cases determined by the office of children
and family services and a re-review of a
sub-sample by the office of those children
and/or cases determined by the office. The
office of children and family services
will determine what is reasonable in
establishing the size of the sample and
sub-sample for each district. The office
of children and family services shall
notify each social services district of
the sample of children and/or cases from
the federal audit period that the social
services district must review. Any child
or case from the social services district
that was included in the federal sample
will automatically be included in the
social services district's review sample
and the determination made at the federal
review regarding that child or case will
govern for the purposes of the social
services district's review. The social
services district must complete and submit
the results of its review to the office of
children and family services within 60
days of receipt of the sample. The error
rate for the district will be based on the
findings of the district's review and the
office of children and family services'
re-review. If a social services district
does not complete its review within 60
days of receiving the sample from the
office of children and family services,
the office of children and family services
shall assign an error rate to the social
services district based on the relative
percentage of the district's applicable
title IV-E claims for the relevant period
as compared to applicable statewide title
IV-E claims for that period and other
circumstances that the office of children
and family services may consider in order
to allocate 100 percent of the federal
disallowance. The office of children and
family services shall apply each social
services district's error rate to the
total amount of the district's applicable
title IV-E claims including associated
administrative expenses. The resulting
dollar amounts for all of the social
services districts will be summed to
310 12553-02-9
DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE
OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES
AID TO LOCALITIES 2019-20
derive the total amount of title IV-E
claims deemed to be in error statewide. To
establish a disallowance percentage for
each social services district, the amount
of the district's title IV-E claims deemed
to be in error will be divided by the
amount of statewide title IV-E claims
deemed to be in error. The resulting
disallowance percentage for each district
will be applied to the entire title IV-E
extrapolated disallowance calculated by
the federal review to determine the amount
of the extrapolated disallowance for which
the district is responsible. Each district
will be credited for the amount already
disallowed for any individual children or
cases found to be in error during the
federal review. The exclusive appeal
rights for the review of the amount of the
federal disallowance assigned to each
social services district shall be pursuant
to article 78 of the civil practice laws
and rules; provided, however, that in any
such action all of the social services
districts shall be joined as necessary
parties and the venue of any such action
shall be in Rensselaer county. Any social
services district that fails to complete
its sample review in the required time
frames shall have no right to appeal and
shall not be a necessary party to any
action brought by another social services
district.
The money hereby appropriated is to be
available for payment of state aid hereto-
