Bill > S00302

This bill legalizes and validates certain transportation contracts for the Hicksville Union Free School District for the 2022-23 school year. Specifically, the bill retroactively confirms the actions taken by the school district related to four specific transportation contracts (numbered C577695, C577697, C577698, and C577700), despite potential technical non-compliance with standard contract advertisement provisions in education and municipal laws. The bill essentially provides legal cover for any procedural errors or omissions in the contract process, with the exception of specific filing provisions outlined in the education law. By passing this bill, the New York State Legislature is formally ratifying these transportation contracts and ensuring their legal validity, thereby preventing any potential challenges to the contracts based on technical procedural issues. The act would take effect immediately upon passage.
