Establishes a plan setting forth an itemized list of grantees for a certain appropriation for the 2025-2026 state fiscal year for services and expenses of senate priorities for housing initiatives
Senate Resolution 1246 requires the Senate to approve a detailed spending plan before allocating $315,000 in state funds for housing initiatives during the 2025-2026 fiscal year. It mandates that the plan - approved by the Senate President and Budget Director - must list specific grantees and exact funding amounts, rather than using a general allocation method. The resolution directly affects 10 housing organizations, including Neighborhood Housing Services of Brooklyn and West Bronx Housing Center, which are each allocated specific sums (e.g., $100,000 for West Bronx Housing Center). This process ensures Senate oversight through a majority vote on a formal resolution before funds are disbursed.
