AN ACT to amend the education law and the general municipal law, in relation to certain lease terms for BOCES properties
AI Summary
This bill amends existing education and general municipal laws to increase the maximum lease term for properties used by Boards of Cooperative Educational Services (BOCES) from ten to twenty years, specifically for leases entered into with public entities. BOCES are organizations that provide shared educational programs and services to multiple school districts. The bill also clarifies that leases established under these new provisions do not require voter approval by referendum, unlike some other longer-term leases. The changes are intended to provide BOCES with more flexibility in securing facilities for their operations.
