R 1236 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Amends a plan setting forth an itemized list of grantees for a certain appropriation for additional grants in aid certain educational and not-for-profit institutions

Senate Resolution 1236 amends a funding plan to add new recipients and adjust allocations for educational and arts grants. It directly affects school districts, public libraries, colleges, and nonprofit organizations by adding specific grantees like the Center for Educational Innovation ($80,000) and Fencing in the Park ($50,000) to the approved list. Key provisions require all funds to be allocated only after a senate-approved plan (listing grantees or allocation method) is included in a resolution passed by a majority vote. The resolution also allows reassigning funds between agencies like SUNY or the New York State Council on the Arts with senate and budget director approval. This updates the 2024-25 funding schedule without creating new policy.
