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.
This resolution amends the plan for distributing additional state grants to school districts, public libraries, and non-profit organizations for the 2019-2020 fiscal year. It requires that any allocation of these funds must follow a plan approved by the Senate President and Director of Budget, which either lists each recipient and their grant amount or explains the allocation method. The approved plan must then be included in a Senate resolution requiring a majority vote of all elected senators for final approval. This process ensures transparency and legislative oversight in distributing these grants.
