AN  ACT  to  amend  the  education law, in relation to the projection of
  increases in school enrollment

  THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND  ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  Section 1. Subparagraph (v) of paragraph b of subdivision 4 of section
2023 of the education law, as separately amended by section 1 of part D2
of chapter 57 and chapter 422 of the laws of 2007, is amended to read as
follows:
  (v)  expenditures  in the contingency budget attributable to projected
increases in public school enrollment, which, for the  purpose  of  this
subdivision,  may  include  increases  attributable to the enrollment of
students attending a pre-kindergarten program established in  accordance
with  section  thirty-six  hundred two-e of this chapter, to be computed
based upon an increase in enrollment from the year  prior  to  the  base
year  for  which  the budget is being adopted to the base year for which
the budget is being adopted, provided that where the trustees  or  board
of education have documented evidence that a further increase in enroll-
ment  will occur during the school year for which the contingency budget
is prepared because of new construction, inception of a pre-kindergarten
program, growth or similar factors,  the  expenditures  attributable  to
such  additional enrollment may also be disregarded. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY
OTHER PROVISION OF THIS SUBDIVISION, IN DETERMINING PROJECTED  INCREASES
IN  PUBLIC  SCHOOL ENROLLMENT, A SCHOOL DISTRICT SHALL COMPUTE PROJECTED
ENROLLMENT FOR THE CURRENT SCHOOL YEAR IN THE SAME MANNER AS  SET  FORTH

 EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                      [ ] is old law to be omitted.
