Legislation

* § 223-a. The board of supervisors of any county may appropriate such
sums as it may deem proper, not exceeding three thousand dollars in any
one year, to carry out the provisions of the forest practice act as
defined in section sixty-d of the conservation law, within such county.
The county treasurer shall pay the moneys so appropriated to the
chairman of the district forest practice board upon his order and upon
his giving a proper receipt therefore. The chairman of the district
forest practice board shall furnish the board of supervisors a detailed
statement of its work and transactions, financed in whole or in part
from such moneys, for the year ending November thirty and for any other
period which the board of supervisors may request and in such form as
said board may direct. Any county making such an appropriation shall be
reimbursed annually by the district forest practice board within six
months following the close of the fiscal year of the county by which
moneys were made available to the extent that such board has moneys made
available to it for such purpose by the state of New York or any of its
agencies or the United States of America or any of its agencies.

* NB This section is formerly subdivision 28-f of § 12 of the former
county law, added in chapter 204 of 1950 and inadvertenly missed being
recodified as a section of County law as other subdivisions of section
12 were in such year. It was saved by Sec. 1001 of present county law.
