      facilities before any such liabilities and bonds have been  so  paid  or
      discharged,  the  title to all of the real and personal property thereof

      payment to the authority in full  of  the  difference  between  the  net
      proceeds  of  sale  and  the amount required to be paid by such board of
      higher education to  permit  the  abandonment  or  withdrawal  shall  be
      conditions  to the closing of any sale pursuant to this subparagraph. In
      the event of a sale pursuant to this subparagraph, the  authority  shall
      be  relieved  of  any obligation to transfer the dormitory and attendant
      facility or portion thereof being sold to the  city  of  New  York,  the
      state  of  New  York or the board of higher education in the city of New
      York pursuant to clause (b) of subparagraph two of this  paragraph.  Any
      and  all  rights of the city of New York, the state of New York and such
      board of higher  education  in  and  to  such  dormitory  and  attendant
      facility  or  portion  thereof shall be deemed to be fully satisfied and
      extinguished by a sale pursuant to this subparagraph. At the request  of
      the  authority,  the  city  of  New York, the state of New York and such
      board of higher education shall join in the deed or execute a  quitclaim
      or  other  legal instrument of conveyance of their respective interests,
      if any, therein.
        (4) Notwithstanding any other provision  of  law,  the  authority,  if
      requested  by  the  city  university  construction fund and the board of
      higher education in the city of New York, may lease all or any  part  of
      any  dormitory  and attendant facility provided by the authority for the
      city university pursuant to paragraph f of this subdivision to  a  third
      party  upon  such  terms  and  conditions  as  the  authority,  the city
      university construction fund and the board of higher  education  in  the
      city  of  New York shall deem appropriate and as are consistent with the
      provisions of the applicable agreement entered  into  by  the  authority
      with  the  city  university  construction  fund  and the board of higher
      education in the city of New York and the applicable resolution  of  the
      authority.  Provided,  however,  that  the  foregoing provisions of this
      subparagraph only to the extent that they otherwise  require  a  request
      for  and  approval by the city university construction fund or the board
      of higher education in the city of New York shall not apply to any lease
      of the parcels which constitute one hundred twenty-three and one hundred
      twenty-seven West one hundred eighty-third street in  the  city  of  New
      York   being  in  section  eleven,  block  three  thousand  two  hundred
      twenty-five, lot forty-eight in Bronx county  (also  known  as  Sedgwick
    
      dormitory  and  North hall). Any rentals or other moneys received by the
      authority pursuant to such lease shall be applied by  the  authority  in
      accordance  with  the  terms of the applicable agreement and resolution.
      Any  leasing of such dormitory and attendant facility or portion thereof
      by the authority pursuant to the terms of this subparagraph shall not be
      deemed to constitute  a  breach  by  the  authority  of  the  terms  and
      conditions  of,  or a default by the authority under any agreement which
      the  authority  may  have  entered  into  with   the   city   university
      construction  fund  and the board of higher education in the city of New
      York, or any resolution of the authority, applicable  to  the  dormitory
      and attendant facility or portion thereof being leased.
        e.  Any lease of a dormitory and attendant facility authorized by this
      subdivision shall be a general obligation of the lessee and may  contain
      certain  provisions,  which  shall  be  a  part of the contract with the
      holders of the bonds of the authority issued for such dormitory, as to
        (1) pledging all or any part  of  the  moneys,  earnings,  income  and
      revenues  derived by the lessee from such dormitory or any part or parts
      thereof, or other personal property of the lessee,  to  secure  payments
      required under the terms of such lease;
        (2)  the  rates,  rentals,  fees  and  other  charges  to be fixed and
      collected by the lessee, the amounts to be raised in each year  thereby,
      and  the  use  and  disposition  of  such  moneys,  earnings, income and
      revenues;
        (3) the setting aside of reserves and the creation  of  special  funds
      and the regulation and disposition thereof;
        (4)  the  procedure,  if  any, by which the terms of such lease may be
      amended, the amount of bonds the holders of which must consent  thereto,
      and the manner in which such consent may be given;
        (5)  vesting  in  a  trustee  or  trustees  such specified properties,
      rights, powers and duties as shall be deemed necessary or desirable  for
      the  security  of  the  holders of the bonds of the authority issued for
      such dormitory;
        (6) the obligations of the lessee with  respect  to  the  replacement,
      reconstruction,  maintenance,  operation,  repairs and insurance of such
      dormitory;
        (7) defining the acts or omissions to act  which  shall  constitute  a
      default  in  the obligations and duties of the lessee, and providing for
      the rights and remedies of the authority and of its bondholders  in  the
      event of such default;
        (8)  any  other  matters, of like or different character, which may be
      deemed necessary or desirable for the  security  or  protection  of  the
      authority or the holders of its bonds.
        f. (1) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, general or special,
      the  dormitory  authority is hereby authorized and empowered to acquire,
      design, construct, reconstruct, rehabilitate, and improve  or  otherwise
      provide  and  furnish and equip dormitories and attendant facilities for
      the use of the city university, in accordance  with  the  terms  of  any
      lease,  sublease,  or  other  agreement  entered  into by the authority,
      pursuant to article one hundred twenty-five-B of the education law, with
      the city university construction fund, or with such fund and  the  board
      of higher education in the city of New York. The dormitory authority may
      issue  its bonds to finance the cost of senior college facilities either
      together with or separate from bonds  issued  to  finance  the  cost  of
      community  college  facilities,  and  may issue its bonds to finance the
      local sponsor's portion of the  cost  of  community  college  facilities
      either  together  with  or separate from its bonds issued to finance the
      state's portion of the cost of such community college facilities.
    
        Notwithstanding any other provision of law, general  or  special,  the
      dormitory  authority may acquire, design, construct or otherwise provide
      and furnish and equip dormitories and attendant facilities for  the  use
      of  Hunter College, which may include therein a police and fire station,
      upon  a site set forth in and in accordance with the terms of any lease,
      sublease or other agreement entered into by the  authority  pursuant  to
      article  one  hundred  twenty-five-B  of the education law with the city
      university construction fund, the city of New  York  and  the  board  of
      higher  education  in such city. The police and fire station portions of
      such facility shall be deemed capital projects of the city of  New  York
      within  the  meaning  of  chapter nine of the New York city charter. Any
      conveyance of real property or rights and interests therein by the  city
      to  the  dormitory  authority  with  respect  to such facility shall not
      include title to that portion of the real property to be occupied by the
      police and fire station portions  thereof  but  shall  include  the  air
      rights  over  such  police  and  fire  stations  and  subsurface  rights
      thereunder.
        (2) The  provisions  of  this  subdivision  shall  apply  to  projects
      undertaken  by  the  dormitory  authority  pursuant  to  this  paragraph
      provided, however, that  wherever  any  provision  of  this  subdivision
      authorizes  or requires action on the part of an educational institution
      such provision, so far as it applies  to  any  such  project,  shall  be
      deemed   to  refer  to  action  on  the  part  of  the  city  university
      construction fund or the board of higher education of the  city  of  New
      York, as the case may be.
        h. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, general or special, the
      dormitory  authority  is  hereby  authorized  and  empowered  to acquire
      dormitories,  including  existing  dormitories,  from  any   educational
      institution  for  such  consideration  and  upon  such  terms  as may be
      approved by the authority.
        i. Notwithstanding any other provision of law the dormitory  authority
      is hereby authorized and empowered to enter into any agreement, lease or
      sublease   with   any   not-for-profit   corporation  or  any  political
      subdivision of the state of New York or the state of New York to allow a
      dormitory to be used and occupied by persons sixty-five years of age  or
      older.
        j.  Subject to the provisions of chapter fifty-nine of the laws of two
      thousand, the maximum amount of bonds and notes to be issued after March
      thirty-first, two thousand two  for  a  housing  unit  for  the  use  of
      students  at  a  state-operated  institution  or  statutory  or contract
      college under the jurisdiction of the state university of New York shall
      be one billion two hundred thirty million dollars. Such amount shall  be
      exclusive  of  bonds and notes issued to fund any reserve fund or funds,
      costs of issuance,  and  to  refund  any  outstanding  bonds  and  notes
      relating  to  a  housing  unit  under  the  jurisdiction  of  the  state
      university of New York.
        3. a. The authority also  shall  have  power  to  make  loans  to  any
      educational    institution    for    the    acquisition,   construction,
      reconstruction, rehabilitation and improvement, or otherwise  providing,
      furnishing  and  equipping  of dormitories and attendant facilities, for
      the purpose of financing or refinancing the  cost  thereof  or  for  the
      purpose  of  acquiring  any  federally guaranteed security in accordance
      with subdivision sixteen of section  sixteen  hundred  seventy-eight  of
      this  chapter.  Each  such  loan  shall  be  premised upon an agreement,
      agreements, or  supplements  thereto,  between  the  authority  and  the
      institution,  which  agreement,  agreements, or supplements thereto, may
      make provisions as to payment, security, maturity, redemption, interest,
      payment of any expenses of the authority and other appropriate matters.
    
        b. The authority shall likewise  have  power  to  make  loans  to  any
      educational  institution to refund existing bonds, mortgages or advances
      given or made by such institution for the construction of dormitories to
      the extent that this will enable such educational institution  to  offer
      greater  security  for loans for new dormitory construction or to effect
      savings in interest cost or more favorable amortization terms.
        c. For the purpose of obtaining loans under subdivision three of  this
      section   every   educational  institution  shall,  notwithstanding  the
      provisions of any other law, have power to mortgage and  pledge  any  of
      its real or personal property, to pledge any of its income from whatever
      source,  and  to purchase and pledge a federally guaranteed security for
      the repayment of the principal of and interest on any loan made to it by
      the authority or to pay the interest on  and  principal  and  redemption
      premium,  if  any,  of  any note, bond or other evidence of indebtedness
      evidencing the  debt  created  by  any  such  loan;  provided  that  the
      foregoing  shall  not be construed to authorize actions in conflict with
      specific legislation, trusts, endowment, or other agreements relating to
      specific properties or funds.
        d. Moneys of the authority received from any  educational  institution
      in  payment of any sum due to the authority pursuant to the terms of any
      loan or  other  agreement  or  any  bond,  note  or  other  evidence  of
      indebtedness,  shall  be  deposited  in  an account in which only moneys
      received from educational institutions under this subdivision  shall  be
      deposited  and  shall be kept separate and apart from and not commingled
      with any other moneys of the authority. Moneys deposited in such account
      shall be paid out on checks signed by the chairman of the  authority  or
      by such other person or persons as the authority may authorize.
        4.  Whenever  the  dormitory  authority  under subdivision two of this
      section undertakes  to  construct,  acquire  or  otherwise  provide  and
      operate  and  manage a dormitory and attendant facilities, the dormitory
      authority shall be responsible for the direct operation and  maintenance
      costs  of  such dormitory but each educational institution in connection
      with which such a dormitory is provided and operated and  managed  shall
      be  responsible  at its own expense for the over-all supervision of each
      dormitory, for the overhead and  general  administrative  costs  of  the
      educational institution which are incurred because of such dormitory and
      for  the  integration of each dormitory operation into the institution's
      educational program so that in so far as practicable the declaration  of
      policy  as outlined in section one of chapter eight hundred fifty of the
      laws  of  nineteen  hundred  fifty-five  and  a  declaration  of  policy
      contained  in  section  one  of  an  act  of the legislature of nineteen
      hundred fifty-nine amending this  subdivision  may  be  fully  achieved.
      Whenever  the  dormitory authority under subdivision two of this section
      undertakes to construct, acquire or otherwise provide  a  dormitory  and
      attendant   facilities   and   to  lease  the  same  to  an  educational
      institution, the lessee shall be responsible for  the  direct  operation
      and  maintenance  costs  of  such  dormitory  and  in  addition shall be
      responsible for the over-all supervision  of  each  dormitory,  for  the
      overhead  and  general  administrative  costs  of  the  lessee which are
      incurred because of such dormitory  and  for  the  integration  of  each
      dormitory  operation into the lessee's educational program so that in so
      far as practicable the declaration of policy as outlined in section  one
      of  chapter  eight  hundred  fifty  of  the  laws  of  nineteen  hundred
      fifty-five and a declaration of policy contained in section  one  of  an
      act  of  the  legislature  of  nineteen hundred fifty-nine amending this
      subdivision may be fully  achieved.  Whenever  the  dormitory  authority
      under subdivision three of this section makes loans for the construction
      of  a  dormitory, the educational institution at which such dormitory is
    
      located shall be responsible for the direct  operation  and  maintenance
      costs  of  such  dormitory  and in addition shall be responsible for the
      over-all supervision of each dormitory, for  the  overhead  and  general
      administrative  costs  of the educational institution which are incurred
      because of such dormitory and for  the  integration  of  each  dormitory
      operation  into  the institution's educational program so that in so far
      as practicable the declaration of policy as outlined in section  one  of
      chapter  eight  hundred fifty of the laws of nineteen hundred fifty-five
      and a declaration of policy contained in section one of an  act  of  the
      legislature of nineteen hundred fifty-nine amending this subdivision may
      be fully achieved.
        5.  All  the  provisions  of this title four not inconsistent with the
      provisions of this section sixteen hundred eighty, shall  be  applicable
      with  respect  to  any bonds of the authority issued to obtain funds for
      any purpose authorized under this section sixteen  hundred  eighty,  and
      with respect to the powers of the authority hereunder.
        6.  To  obtain  funds  for  construction,  acquisition or provision of
      dormitories and loans under this section, the authority shall have power
      from time to time to issue negotiable bonds or notes.
        7. Any pledge of or  other  security  interest  in  moneys,  earnings,
      income,  revenues,  accounts,  contract  rights,  general intangibles or
      other personal property made or created by the authority shall be valid,
      binding and perfected from the time when such pledge or  other  security
      interest  attaches,  without  any physical delivery of the collateral or
      further act. The lien of any such  pledge  or  other  security  interest
      shall  be  valid,  binding  and  perfected as against all parties having
      claims of any kind in tort, contract or otherwise against the  authority
      irrespective  of  whether  or  not  such parties have notice thereof. No
      instrument by which such a pledge or other security interest is  created
      nor  any financing statement need be recorded or filed. This subdivision
      shall apply notwithstanding the provisions  of  the  uniform  commercial
      code.
        8.  For  all purposes of this section sixteen hundred eighty, the term
      "dormitory" shall  include  and  mean  a  housing  unit,  including  all
      necessary  and  usual  attendant  and  related facilities and equipment,
      provided for the  use  of  married  students,  faculty,  staff  and  the
      families thereof.
        9.  (a)  Notwithstanding  any  other provision of law to the contrary,
      each local sponsor shall have power to convey or cause to be conveyed to
      the authority real property or  rights  in  real  property  required  in
      connection  with  the  providing  and  financing  of  a  facility by the
      authority for a locally sponsored community college for which such local
      sponsor is the sponsor or one of the sponsors and who also  enters  into
      agreements and leases with the dormitory authority pursuant to paragraph
      e  of  subdivision  two  of this section. The authority to make any such
      conveyance shall not be subject to a mandatory or permissive referendum.
        (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of any general,  special  or  local
      law,  charter  or  ordinance  to  the  contrary, on request of the local
      sponsor of a locally sponsored community college in the city of New York
      and with the approval of the city board of estimate,  the  city  of  New
      York  may  sell,  convey, lease, exchange or otherwise make available to
      the dormitory authority, for a nominal consideration,  any  interest  in
      real  property  of the city designated by such local sponsor as suitable
      for a  facility.  Such  sale,  conveyance,  lease,  exchange,  or  other
      disposition may be made at a nominal cost and without the requirement of
      public auction or sealed bids, or restriction as to the term of any such
      lease  or  arrangement,  and  the provisions of subdivision b of section
      three hundred eighty-four of the New York city charter shall  not  apply
    
      in  such  cases. Conveyances made pursuant to this section shall include
      but shall not  be  limited  to  real  property  on  which  are  situated
      facilities  of,  or  are  under the jurisdiction of, or assigned to, the
      board of education of the city school district of the city of New York.
        (c)  Notwithstanding  the  provisions of any general, special or local
      law, charter or ordinance to the contrary, the city board of estimate on
      behalf of the city of  New  York  may  grant  revocable  or  irrevocable
      consents  or  rights  of any kind or nature whatsoever, providing for or
      involving or relating to the occupation or use of any of the streets  of
      the  city,  whether  on,  under  or  over  the  surface  thereof, to the
      dormitory authority, on such terms and conditions and for such period of
      time or duration as may be determined by the board of estimate to be  in
      the public interest.
        (d)  The  following  provisions  shall be applicable to agreements and
      leases entered into  between  the  authority  and  a  local  sponsor  in
      relation  to  the providing and financing by the authority of facilities
      for locally sponsored community colleges, and to agreements  and  leases
      entered  into between the authority and the city university construction
      fund in relation to the providing and  financing  by  the  authority  of
      facilities for city university community colleges.
        (1)  In  addition  to the provisions authorized by subdivision four of
      section sixteen hundred eighty-two of this title four, any resolution or
      resolutions authorizing any bonds for the purpose of financing the  cost
      of  providing  facilities  for  locally  sponsored  or  city  university
      community colleges may contain provisions which may be  a  part  of  the
      contract  with  the holders of such bonds providing for the creation and
      establishment and maintenance of reserve  funds  and  payments  to  such
      reserve funds as hereinafter in this paragraph set forth.
        (2)  The  authority may create and establish one or more reserve funds
      to be known as debt service reserve funds and may pay into such  reserve
      funds  (i)  any  moneys appropriated and made available by the state for
      the purposes of such funds, (ii) any proceeds of the sale of  bonds  and
      notes  to  the  extent  provided  in  the  resolution  of  the authority
      authorizing the issuance thereof, and (iii) any other moneys  which  may
      be  made  available to the authority for the purposes of such funds from
      any other source or sources. The moneys held in or credited to any  debt
      service  reserve  fund  established  under  this  paragraph,  except  as
      hereinafter provided, shall be  used  solely  for  the  payment  of  the
      principal of bonds of the authority secured by such reserve fund, as the
      same mature, the purchase of such bonds of the authority, the payment of
      interest on such bonds of the authority or the payment of any redemption
      premium  required  to  be  paid  when  such  bonds are redeemed prior to
      maturity; provided, however, that moneys in any such fund shall  not  be
      withdrawn  therefrom  at  any  time  in  such amount as would reduce the
      amount of such fund to less than the maximum  amount  of  principal  and
      interest  maturing  and  becoming due in any succeeding calendar year on
      the bonds of the authority then outstanding and secured by such  reserve
      fund,  except  for  the  purpose of paying principal and interest on the
      bonds of the  authority  secured  by  such  reserve  fund  maturing  and
      becoming  due and for the payment of which other moneys of the authority
      are not available. Any income or interest earned by,  or  increment  to,
      any  such debt service reserve fund due to the investment thereof may be
      transferred to any other fund or account of the authority to the  extent
      it  does  not  reduce the amount of such debt service reserve fund below
      the maximum amount of principal and interest maturing and  becoming  due
      in  any  succeeding  calendar  year  on  all bonds of the authority then
      outstanding and secured by such reserve fund.
    
        (3) The authority shall not issue bonds at any  time  if  the  maximum
      amount  of  principal  and  interest  maturing  and  becoming  due  in a
      succeeding calendar year on the bonds outstanding and then to be  issued
      and  secured  by  a  debt service reserve fund will exceed the amount of
      such  reserve  fund at the time of issuance, unless the authority at the
      time of issuance of such bonds, shall deposit in such reserve fund  from
      the proceeds of the bonds so to be issued, or otherwise, an amount which
      together  with  the  amount  then in such reserve fund, will be not less
      than the maximum amount of principal and interest maturing and  becoming
      due  in  any succeeding calendar year on the bonds then to be issued and
      on all other bonds of the authority then outstanding and secured by such
      reserve fund.
        (4) To ensure the continued operation and solvency  of  the  authority
      for  the  carrying  out  of  the  public  purposes relating to providing
      facilities for locally sponsored or city university  community  colleges
      provision  is  made  in the foregoing provisions of this paragraph d for
      the accumulation in each debt service reserve fund of an amount equal to
      the maximum amount of principal and interest maturing and  becoming  due
      in  any  succeeding  calendar  year  on  all bonds of the authority then
      outstanding and secured by such reserve fund. In order further to ensure
      the maintenance of such debt  service  reserve  funds,  there  shall  be
      annually  apportioned and paid to the authority for deposit in each debt
      service reserve fund such sum, if any, as  shall  be  certified  by  the
      chairman  of  the  authority  to  the governor and state director of the
      budget as necessary to restore such reserve fund to an amount  equal  to
      the  maximum  amount of principal and interest maturing and becoming due
      in any succeeding calendar year on  the  bonds  of  the  authority  then
      outstanding  and  secured  by  such  reserve  fund.  The chairman of the
      authority shall annually, on or before December first, make and  deliver
      to the governor and state director of the budget his certificate stating
      the sum, if any, required to restore each such debt service reserve fund
      to the amount aforesaid, and the sum or sums so certified, if any, shall
      be  apportioned  and paid to the authority during the then current state
      fiscal year. The principal amount of bonds secured  by  a  debt  service
      reserve fund or funds to which state funds are apportionable pursuant to

      authority  to  enable  the  authority  to  pay the principal of any such
      indebtedness contracted by it to finance  the  cost  of  such  works  or
      facility  shall commence within two years after any such indebtedness or
      portion thereof shall have been contracted and no  such  annual  payment
      shall  be  more  than  fifty  per centum in excess of the smallest prior
      annual payment for such purpose.
        (3) The local sponsor shall pledge its full faith and credit  for  the
      payment  of  such  annual payments described in subparagraph two of this
      paragraph and also for the payments required to be made to the authority
      to enable it to pay the interest on such indebtedness.

      subparagraph b of subdivision three of paragraph a of section 135.00  of
      the local finance law.
        (5)  The  annual  payments  by  a  local  sponsor  in relation to such

      state constitution.
        (6) The lease, sublease or other agreement shall not be  renegotiated,
      or  amended,  in  such  manner  as  to constitute a refunding within the
      meaning of section two of article eight of the state constitution.
    
        (7) The lease, sublease or other agreement shall not be applicable  to
      any  facility constructed or reconstructed to effectuate the purposes of

      notwithstanding the provision of any general or special law,  or  county
      or city charter which (i) requires that any project must be constructed,
      operated  and maintained by the local sponsor, (ii) limits the period of
      time for which a local sponsor may contract,  (iii)  requires  that  the
      cost  shall be paid for by taxes levied for the fiscal year in which the

      the extent moneys are available and that no liability shall be  incurred
      by  the state beyond the moneys available for the purpose, and that such
      obligation is subject to annual appropriation by the legislature;

      bonds or notes, including bonds issued to fund any required debt service
      reserve requirement for bonds, of the dormitory authority issued to fund
      such  projects  having  a cost not in excess of sixteen million dollars;

      apply to powers in connection with the provision of dormitories for  New
      Hope Community, Inc., by the dormitory authority pursuant to this title.
        Except  to the extent otherwise prohibited by law, New Hope Community,
      Inc., shall have full power and authority to assign and  pledge  to  the
      dormitory  authority  any  and  all  public  funds  to be apportioned or
      otherwise made payable by the federal government,  any  agency  thereof,
      the  state  of  New York, a political subdivision, as defined in section
      one hundred of  the  general  municipal  law,  or  any  social  services
      district  in  the  state of New York in an amount sufficient to make all
      payments required to be made by any such organization  pursuant  to  any
      lease,   sublease   or   other   agreement  entered  into  between  such
      organization and the dormitory authority.
        All state and local officers are hereby authorized and required to pay
      all such funds so assigned and pledged to the  dormitory  authority  or,
      upon  the  direction  of  the dormitory authority, to any trustee of any
      dormitory authority bond or note issued pursuant to a certificate  filed
      with any such state or local officer by the dormitory authority pursuant
      to the provisions of this subdivision.
        * NB There are 4 sub 19's
        * 19. (a) The dormitory authority is empowered and authorized to enter
      into  a  lease,  sublease  or  other agreement with the state university
      construction fund  pursuant  to  which  one  or  more  state  university
      educational  facilities  are  to  be  designed,  acquired,  constructed,
      reconstructed, rehabilitated, improved or otherwise provided,  or  state
      university  educational  facilities  are  to  be  furnished or equipped,
      provided that such lease, sublease, or other agreement has been approved
      by the state university of New York, which shall  be  a  party  thereto.
    
      Such  lease,  sublease or other agreement may provide for the payment of
      annual rentals and other payments by the state  university  construction
      fund to the authority and contain such other terms and conditions as may
      be  agreed  upon  by the parties thereto, including, but not limited to,
      provisions relating to  the  maintenance  and  operation  of  the  state
      university  educational  facilities, the establishment of reserve funds,
      indemnities and the disposition of a facility or  the  interest  of  the
      authority therein prior to or upon the termination or expiration of such
      lease,  sublease  or  other  agreement.  Such  lease,  sublease or other
      agreement shall be subject to  the  approval  of  the  director  of  the
      budget.
        (b)  Notwithstanding  the  provisions  of  the public lands law or any
      other law to the contrary, the state of New York, the  state  university
      of New York and the state university construction fund may sell, convey,
      lease,  exchange  or  otherwise  make  available  to  the authority, for
      nominal consideration, the title to or an interest in real property  for
      the purpose of providing state university educational facilities and may
      enter  into any lease, sublease or other agreement with the authority in
      connection with state university educational facilities  without  public
      auction or bidding or restriction as to the term of such lease, sublease
      or other agreement.
        (c) Subject to the provisions of chapter fifty-nine of the laws of two
      thousand,  the  dormitory  authority shall not issue any bonds for state
      university educational facilities purposes if the  principal  amount  of
      bonds to be issued when added to the aggregate principal amount of bonds
      issued  by  the  dormitory  authority  on and after July first, nineteen
      hundred eighty-eight for state university  educational  facilities  will
      exceed  ten billion eighty-nine million dollars; provided, however, that
      bonds issued or to be issued shall be excluded from such limitation  if:
      (1)  such bonds are issued to refund state university construction bonds
      and state university construction notes previously issued by the housing
      finance agency; or (2) such bonds are issued  to  refund  bonds  of  the
      authority  or  other obligations issued for state university educational
      facilities purposes and the present value of the aggregate debt  service
      on  the  refunding  bonds  does  not  exceed  the  present  value of the
      aggregate debt service on the bonds refunded thereby; provided,  further
      that  upon certification by the director of the budget that the issuance
      of refunding bonds or other  obligations  issued  between  April  first,
      nineteen  hundred  ninety-two  and  March thirty-first, nineteen hundred
      ninety-three will generate long term economic benefits to the state,  as
      assessed  on a present value basis, such issuance will be deemed to have
      met  the  present  value  test  noted  above.  For  purposes   of   this
      subdivision,  the  present  value  of  the aggregate debt service of the
      refunding bonds and the aggregate debt service of  the  bonds  refunded,
      shall be calculated by utilizing the true interest cost of the refunding
      bonds,  which  shall be that rate arrived at by doubling the semi-annual
      interest rate (compounded semi-annually) necessary to discount the  debt
      service  payments  on the refunding bonds from the payment dates thereof
      to the date of issue of the refunding bonds to the purchase price of the
      refunding  bonds,  including  interest  accrued  thereon  prior  to  the
      issuance thereof. The maturity of such bonds, other than bonds issued to
      refund outstanding bonds, shall not exceed the weighted average economic
      life,  as  certified  by  the state university construction fund, of the
      facilities in connection with which the bonds are  issued,  and  in  any
      case not later than the earlier of thirty years or the expiration of the
      term  of  any  lease,  sublease  or  other  agreement  relating thereto;
      provided that no note, including renewals thereof,  shall  mature  later
      than five years after the date of issuance of such note. The legislature
    
      reserves  the  right to amend or repeal such limit, and the state of New
      York, the dormitory authority, the state university of New York, and the
      state university construction fund are prohibited  from  covenanting  or
      making any other agreements with or for the benefit of bondholders which
      might in any way affect such right.
        (d)  (1)  (i) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the bonds of
      the  authority  issued  for  state  university  educational   facilities
      purposes  shall  be sold to the bidder offering the lowest true interest
      cost, taking into consideration any premium or discount, not  less  than
      four  nor  more  than  fifteen days, Sundays excepted, after a notice of
      such sale has been published at least once in  a  newspaper  of  general
      circulation  in  the area served by the authority, which shall state the
      terms of the sale. The terms of the sale may not change unless notice of
      such change is published in such newspaper at least one day prior to the
      date of  the  sale  as  set  forth  in  the  original  notice  of  sale.
      Advertisements  shall  contain  a  provision  to  the  effect  that  the
      authority, in its discretion,  may  reject  any  or  all  bids  made  in
      pursuance  of  such  advertisements, and in the event of such rejection,
      the authority is authorized to negotiate a private  or  public  sale  or
      readvertise  for  bids  in  the  form and manner above described as many
      times as, in its judgment, may be necessary  to  effect  a  satisfactory
      sale.
        (ii)   Notwithstanding   the   provisions   of   clause  (i)  of  this
      subparagraph, whenever in the judgment of the authority the interest  of
      the  authority  will be served thereby, the members of the authority, on
      the written recommendation of the executive director, may authorize  the
      sale of such bonds at private or public sale on a negotiated basis or on
      either  a  competitive  or  negotiated  basis.  The  authority shall set
      guidelines governing the terms and conditions of  any  such  private  or
      public sales.
        (2)  The  private  or public bond sale guidelines set by the authority
      shall include, but not be limited  to,  a  requirement  that  where  the
      interests  of  the  state  will be served by a private or public sale of
      bonds, the authority shall select underwriters  for  private  or  public
      bond  sales  conducted  pursuant  to  a  request  for  proposal  process
      undertaken in accordance with  the  authority's  procurement  guidelines
      adopted  pursuant  to  section twenty-eight hundred seventy-nine of this
      chapter from qualified underwriters taking  into  account,  among  other
      things,  qualifications  of underwriters as to experience, their ability
      to structure and sell authority bond issues, anticipated  costs  to  the
      authority,  the prior experience of the authority with the firm, and, if
      any, the capitalization of such firms.
        (3) The authority shall have the power from time to time to amend such
      private or public bond sale guidelines in accordance with the provisions
      of this section.
        (4) No such private or public bond sale on a negotiated basis shall be
      conducted by the authority without prior approval of the comptroller.
        (5) The authority shall annually  prepare  and  approve  a  bond  sale
      report which shall include the private or public bond sale guidelines as
      specified  in  subparagraph  two  of  this paragraph, amendments to such
      guidelines since the  last  private  or  public  bond  sale  report,  an
      explanation  of the bond sale guidelines and amendments, and the results
      of any sale of bonds conducted during the fiscal year.  Such  bond  sale
      report  may  be  a part of any other annual report that the authority is
      required to make.
        (6) (i) The authority shall annually submit its bond  sale  report  to
      the  comptroller  and copies thereof to the senate finance committee and
      the assembly ways and means committee.
    
        (ii) The authority shall make available to the public  copies  of  its
      bond sale report upon reasonable request therefor.
        (7)  Nothing  contained  in  this  paragraph shall be deemed to alter,
      affect the validity of, modify the terms of or impair  any  contract  or
      agreement  made  or  entered into in violation of, or without compliance
      with, the provisions of this section.
        (e) The state shall, in addition to any other moneys appropriated  and
      made  available  for  the  support  of the state university of New York,
      annually appropriate and pay to the state university  construction  fund
      an  amount  equal  to  the  aggregate  of  all  annual rentals and other
      payments due to  the  dormitory  authority  from  the  state  university
      construction fund on account of state university educational facilities,
      which rentals and other payments are payable by the fund pursuant to any
      lease,  sublease  or  other agreement entered into between the dormitory
      authority and the state university construction fund on  or  after  July
      first,  nineteen  hundred  eighty-eight,  for  the year commencing April
      first immediately succeeding the filing of the  report  required  to  be
      submitted   by  the  state  university  construction  fund  pursuant  to
      subdivision two of section three hundred  eighty-two  of  the  education
      law. Such amount shall be paid to the state university construction fund
      as follows:
        (1)  on or before the fifteenth day of September of the fiscal year of
      the state, the amount required  to  be  paid  by  the  state  university
      construction  fund on account of state university educational facilities
      under any such lease, sublease or other agreement on or before the tenth
      day of October of such state fiscal year;
        (2) no later than three business days prior to the tenth day of  April
      of  the  fiscal year of the state, the amount required to be paid by the
      state university  construction  fund  on  account  of  state  university
      educational facilities under any such lease, sublease or other agreement
      on or before the tenth day of April of such state fiscal year; and
        (3)  on  such day or days as shall be prescribed under any such lease,
      sublease, or other agreement, the amount required  to  be  paid  by  the
      state  university  construction  fund for the purpose of making payments
      under any interest rate exchange  or  similar  agreements  entered  into
      pursuant to article five-D of the state finance law for state university
      educational facilities.
        Notwithstanding  any  other  provision  of  law, the state comptroller
      shall annually encumber that portion  of  the  amount  appropriated  for
      payment  to  the  state university construction fund equal to the amount
      required to be paid pursuant to subparagraphs  two  and  three  of  this
      paragraph   in   the  fiscal  year  following  the  year  in  which  the
      appropriation is made pursuant to any lease, sublease or other agreement
      between the fund, the authority and the state  university  of  New  York
      with  respect  to  authority  bonds issued or interest rate exchange and
      similar  agreements  entered  into  for  state  university   educational
      facilities, before the end of the fiscal year in which the appropriation
      is  made. The amount so encumbered shall be payable to the fund pursuant
      to subparagraphs  two  and  three  of  this  paragraph,  in  the  manner
      prescribed by law.
        In  the  event of the failure of the state to pay the state university
      construction fund when due pursuant to this subdivision all or  part  of
      such  amounts,  the  state  university construction fund shall forthwith
      make and deliver to the state  comptroller  a  certificate  stating  the
      amount  of  the  payment  required  to  have been made by the state, the
      amount paid by the state and the amount remaining unpaid by  the  state.
      The  state  comptroller,  after giving written notice to the director of
      the budget, shall pay to the  state  university  construction  fund  the
    
      amount  set  forth in such certificate as remaining unpaid, which amount
      shall be paid from any moneys  appropriated  by  the  state  for  or  on
      account  of  the operating costs of the state university of New York and
      not  yet  paid.  The amount required to be paid by the state comptroller
      pursuant to this subdivision shall  be  paid  to  the  state  university
      construction   fund   as  soon  as  practicable  after  receipt  of  the
      certificate of the state university construction fund and notice to  the
      director  of  the  budget is given, whether or not the moneys from which
      such payment is to be made  are  then  due  and  payable  to  the  state
      university.
        (f) The amount of state appropriations payable to the state university
      of New York from which the state comptroller has made a payment pursuant
      to  this subdivision shall be reduced by the amount so paid to the state
      university construction fund, notwithstanding  the  amount  appropriated
      and  apportioned  by  the state to the state university of New York, and
      the state shall not be obligated to make and the state university of New
      York shall not be entitled to receive any  additional  apportionment  or
      payment of state moneys.
        (g)  The  amount  of  money  required  to  be  paid  pursuant  to this
      subdivision shall be determined from the report required to be submitted
      by the state university construction fund pursuant to subdivision two of
      section three hundred eighty-two of the education law. Nothing contained
      in this subdivision shall be construed to create an obligation upon  the
      state  to appropriate moneys for or on account of the operating costs of
      state university educational facilities,  to  preclude  the  state  from
      reducing  the amount of moneys appropriated or level of support provided
      for the operating costs of the state university of  New  York  from  the
      amount  appropriated  or  level  of  support provided in any prior state
      fiscal year, or to preclude the state from  altering  or  modifying  the
      manner  in  which  it  provides  for  the  operating  costs of the state
      university of New York.

        d. Title or other real  property  rights  to  the  capital  facilities
      financed  pursuant  to  this  section  shall  remain  with the dormitory
      authority until the dormitory authority certifies to the commissioner of
      education with respect to educational facilities and the comptroller the
      receipt by it of the amount necessary to pay the total aggregate  amount
      of  annual  rentals  to  the dormitory authority. At such time, title or
      other real property rights thereto shall be transferred by the dormitory
      authority to such private not-for-profit school for use for  educational
      purposes.  In  order  to avail itself of the provisions of this section,
      each such private not-for-profit school must also agree to  continue  to
      operate  a  program  for  the education of children pursuant to contract
      with public school districts or  social  services  districts,  and  such
      lease,  sublease  or  other agreement with the dormitory authority shall
      provide that, if  the  private  not-for-profit  school  shall  cease  to
    
      operate such a program at any time during the term of the agreement, the
      state  will  have  the  option to take such title or other real property
      rights of the dormitory authority  in  land,  buildings,  equipment  and
      other  properties  which  the private not-for-profit school uses for its
      program upon, subject to appropriations, payment by  the  state  to  the
      dormitory  authority  of  the amount required to pay the total aggregate
      amount of annual rentals to the dormitory authority.
        e. On or  before  November  fifteenth  of  each  year,  the  dormitory
      authority  shall submit, and thereafter may resubmit, to the director of
      the budget, the state comptroller, the chairman of  the  senate  finance
      committee  and  the  chairman of the assembly ways and means committee a
      report setting  forth  the  amounts,  if  any,  of  all  annual  rentals
      estimated  to  become  due  in  the  succeeding state fiscal year to the
      dormitory authority from the private not-for-profit school  pursuant  to
      any   leases,  subleases  or  other  agreements  between  the  dormitory
      authority and such private not-for-profit school to provide  educational
      facilities for such private not-for-profit school. The state comptroller
      shall  pay  over  to  the dormitory authority pursuant to appropriations
      therefor solely from moneys  available  in  the  private  not-for-profit
      school capital facilities financing reserve fund the amount set forth in
      such report at the times and in the amounts set forth in the certificate
      filed with the comptroller by the dormitory authority pursuant to clause
      (iv) of subparagraph two of paragraph f of this subdivision.
        f.  Method  of  payment; reserve fund. (1) Each private not-for-profit
      school which elects to avail itself of the provisions  of  this  section
      shall   have   established   with   the   state  comptroller  a  private
      not-for-profit school capital facilities financing reserve account which
      shall be used to pay to  the  dormitory  authority  the  annual  rentals
      payable  to  the  dormitory  authority by private not-for-profit schools
      which have entered into leases, subleases or other agreements  with  the
      dormitory  authority  to  provide educational facilities pursuant to the
      provisions of this section. The dormitory authority  shall  identify  to
      the  state comptroller and to the commissioner of education with respect
      to educational facilities, the private not-for-profit schools with which
      it has leases, subleases or other agreements pursuant  to  this  section
      and  shall  annually certify the amount of annual rentals required to be
      paid pursuant to such leases, subleases or other agreements.
        (2) (i) There is hereby  established  in  the  custody  of  the  state
      comptroller  a  special  fund  to be known as the private not-for-profit
      school capital facilities financing  reserve  fund.  Within  such  fund,
      there   is  hereby  established  a  special  account  for  each  private
      not-for-profit school which enters  into  a  lease,  sublease  or  other
      agreement with the dormitory authority pursuant to this section.
        (ii)  Notwithstanding the provisions of any other law, such fund shall
      consist of part of the tuition payments from public school districts and
      social  services  districts  as  determined  by  the   commissioner   of
      education. The comptroller shall maintain sufficient amounts in the fund
      in  order  to  pay  when  due  the  annual  rentals due to the dormitory
      authority from each such private not-for-profit school pursuant  to  any
      lease,  sublease  or  other  agreement  entered  into  pursuant  to  the
      provisions of this section. The dormitory authority shall certify to the
      state comptroller the dates  and  amount  of  such  annual  payments  as
      scheduled in its leases, subleases or other agreements with such private
      not-for-profit  schools.  The  commissioner of education with respect to
      educational facilities shall certify the amount of payments due the fund
      from public school districts and social services districts, respectively
      and such public school districts and  social  services  districts  shall
      make  such  payments to the fund at such times as shall be prescribed by
    
      the commissioner with respect to educational facilities, subject to  the
      approval  of the director of the budget, and after consultation with the
      dormitory authority.
        (iii)  Revenues  in  any special account in the private not-for-profit
      school capital facilities financing reserve fund may be commingled  with
      any  other monies in such fund. All deposits of such revenues with banks
      and trust companies shall be secured by obligations of the United States
      or of the  state  of  New  York  or  its  political  subdivisions.  Such
      obligations  shall  have  a market value at least equal at all times to,
      but not less than, one hundred  five  percent  of  the  amount  of  such
      deposits.  All banks and trust companies are authorized to give security
      for such deposits. Any such revenues in such fund may, in the discretion
      of the comptroller, be invested in obligations of the United  States  or
      the  state  or  obligations  the  principal of and interest on which are
      guaranteed by the United States or by the  state.  Any  interest  earned
      shall be credited to such fund.
        (iv)  Upon receipt by the comptroller of a certificate or certificates
      from the dormitory authority that it requires a payment or payments from
      the appropriate special account established for a private not-for-profit
      school in order for such private not-for-profit school  to  comply  with
      any lease, sublease or other agreement pursuant to this section, each of
      which  certificates  shall  specify the required payment or payments and
      the date when the payment or payments is required, the comptroller shall
      pay from such special account on or before the specified date or  within
      thirty days after receipt of such certificate or certificates, whichever
      is  later,  to the paying agent designated by the dormitory authority in
      any such certificate, the amount or amounts so certified.
        (v) All payments of  money  from  the  private  not-for-profit  school
      capital facilities financing reserve fund shall be made on the audit and
      warrant of the state comptroller.
        g.  Notwithstanding the provisions of any contract pursuant to article
      eighty-one or eighty-nine of the education law between a social services
      district or a  public  school  district  and  a  private  not-for-profit
      school.  If  the  private  not-for-profit  school  enters  into a lease,
      sublease or other agreement with the  dormitory  authority  pursuant  to
      this  section,  payments  due  from the public school district or social
      services district shall be made in accordance  with  the  provisions  of
      this chapter.
        h.  All  state and local officials are authorized and required to take
      whatever actions are necessary to  carry  out  the  provisions  of  this
      section  and the provisions of any leases, subleases or other agreements
      entered into pursuant to this section,  including  making  the  required
      payments to the dormitory authority.
        i.  Notwithstanding  any  other  provision of law to the contrary, the
      dormitory authority may execute leases, subleases, or  other  agreements
      with  private not-for-profit schools authorized pursuant to this section
      and chapter six hundred ninety-eight of the  laws  of  nineteen  hundred
      ninety-one  for  financing  of the design, construction, rehabilitation,
      improvement,  renovation,  acquisition  or  provision,   furnishing   or
      equipping  of capital facilities; provided, however, that during the two
      year period commencing July first,  nineteen  hundred  ninety-five,  the
      amount  of  bonds inclusive of principal, interest and issuance costs to
      be issued for each individual lease, sublease, or other agreement  shall
      not  exceed  fifteen million dollars annually; and provided further that
      the total amount of such  bonds  for  all  such  leases,  subleases,  or
      agreements  with  private  not-for-profit  schools  during  such  period
      exclusive of bonds for projects already  approved  by  the  division  of
    
      budget  as  of  such  date  shall not exceed one hundred fifteen million
      dollars.
        On  or  before  September  first  of  each  year,  the commissioner of
      education shall submit to the chairs of  the  assembly  ways  and  means
      committee,  the senate finance committee and the director of the budget,
      a capital plan for those projects expected  to  be  bonded  for  private
      not-for-profit schools pursuant to this section, within such one hundred
      fifteen million dollar allowance. After application of the principles of
      the  capital assets preservation program pursuant to education law, such
      plan shall accord priority to health and safety considerations and shall
      specify the name, location, estimated total cost of the project  at  the
      time  the  project  is  to  be  bid,  the  anticipated  bid date and the
      anticipated completion date and may contain any further  recommendations
      the commissioner may deem appropriate.

      improved or otherwise provided, and  furnished  and  equipped,  provided
      that  such  lease,  sublease or other agreement has been approved by the

      such  pledge  and assignment of revenues to the authority may be further
      pledged and assigned to the holders  of  obligations  of  the  dormitory
      authority  issued  to  finance  the  acquisition,  design, construction,
      reconstruction,   rehabilitation,   improvement   or   other   provision

      extent  not  so  pledged and assigned, revenues of such medical clinical
      practice management plan shall be available for any lawful  purposes  of
      the  state university of New York health sciences center at Stony Brook.

      therefor  by the legislature, in order to assist the dormitory authority
      in providing for the financing of the payment of the remaining principal
      balance of the amount to be amortized as defined in section sixteen-a of

      first, nineteen hundred ninety-six to the date of such  payment  of  the
      remaining  principal balance, into the pension accumulation fund and the
      New York state public  employees  group  life  insurance  plan,  and  in
      consideration  of the undertaking thereof and the benefits to be derived
      therefrom by the people of the state, the  director  of  the  budget  is
      authorized  to  enter into an agreement which shall not exceed ten years
      in duration with  the  dormitory  authority,  upon  such  terms  as  the
      director of the budget and the dormitory authority agree;
        b.  Any  agreement  entered  into  pursuant  to  paragraph  a  of this
      subdivision or any payments  made  or  to  be  made  thereunder  may  be
      assigned  and  pledged  by  the  dormitory authority as security for its
      bonds and notes;
        c. Any such  agreement  shall  provide  that  the  obligation  of  the
      director  of  the  budget  or of the state to fund or to pay the amounts
      therein provided for shall not constitute a debt of the state within the
      meaning of any constitutional or statutory provisions in the  event  the
      dormitory authority assigns or pledges the payments received pursuant to
      such  agreement  as  security for its bonds or notes and shall be deemed
      executory only to the extent moneys are available and that no  liability
      shall  be  incurred  by  the  state beyond the moneys available for that
      purpose, and that such obligation is subject to annual appropriations by
      the legislature;
        d. Any agreement entered  into  pursuant  to  this  subdivision  shall
      provide  for  state  commitments  to  provide  annually to the dormitory
      authority a sum or sums, upon such terms  and  conditions  as  shall  be
      deemed  appropriate  by  the  director  of  the budget, to fund the debt
      service requirements of any bonds or notes of  the  dormitory  authority
      issued pursuant to this subdivision; and
        e.  The  dormitory  authority  shall  not  issue its bonds or notes to
      finance the amounts as described in paragraph a of this  subdivision  in
      an  aggregate  principal  amount greater than seven hundred eighty-seven
      million dollars; provided, however, that in addition to such bonds,  the
      authority may issue an aggregate principal amount of bonds sufficient to
      fund  any  reserve funds established in connection therewith, to provide
      capitalized interest on the bonds or notes and pay the costs incurred by
      the authority in connection with the issuance and servicing  of  any  of
      such bonds.
        35.  (a)  The dormitory authority is empowered and authorized to enter
      into a lease, sublease, lease purchase,  or  other  agreement  with  the
      office  of  general  services  of the state of New York on behalf of the
      department of audit and control of the state of  New  York  pursuant  to
      which  one or more facilities are to be designed, acquired, constructed,
      reconstructed, rehabilitated, improved or  otherwise  provided  for  the
      department  of  audit and control of the state of New York, the New York
      state and local employees' retirement system and the New York state  and
      local  police  and  fire  retirement  system  and pursuant to which such
      facilities are to be furnished or equipped provided, however,  that  any
      contract  or  lease  for  construction, reconstruction or rehabilitation
      authorized by this subdivision shall be governed by article eight of the
      labor law. Such lease, sublease, lease purchase, or other agreement  may
      provide  for  the  payment  of  annual rentals and other payments by the
      department of audit and  control  of  the  state  of  New  York  to  the
    
      dormitory  authority from appropriations as provided in paragraph (c) of

      agreement  shall  be  subject  to  the  approval  of the director of the
      budget.
        (b) Any such lease,  sublease,  lease  purchase,  or  other  agreement
      entered   into  pursuant  to  this  subdivision  may  provide  that  the
      provisions thereof shall remain in full force and effect until the issue
      of the bonds of the dormitory authority to which  it  relates,  together
      with  interest  thereon, interest on any unpaid installments of interest
      and the fees and expenses of the dormitory authority, are fully met  and
      discharged, and any payments to be made by the state, the New York state
      and  local employees' retirement system and the New York state and local
      police and fire retirement system pursuant to any lease, sublease, lease
      purchase, or other agreement authorized pursuant  to  paragraph  (f)  of
      this  subdivision  may  be  pledged by the dormitory authority to secure
      such bonds.
        (c) Any agreement entered into pursuant to  this  subdivision  by  and
      between  the  dormitory  authority and the office of general services on
      behalf of the department of audit and control shall  provide  for  state
      commitments  to  provide annually to the department of audit and control
      an amount equal to the aggregate amount of all annual rentals due to the
      dormitory authority from the department of audit and control on  account
      of such facilities for the department of audit and control, the New York
      state  and local employees' retirement system and the New York state and
      local police and fire retirement system  pursuant  to  any  such  lease,
      sublease,  lease purchase, or other agreement. Any such lease, sublease,
      lease purchase  or  other  agreement  shall  further  provide  that  the
      obligation  of  the  state  to  appropriate amounts to the department of
      audit and control to pay annual rentals due to the  dormitory  authority
      from  the  department  of audit and control on account of facilities for
      the department of audit and  control,  the  New  York  state  and  local
      employees' retirement system and the New York state and local police and
      fire  retirement  system  pursuant  to  any  such lease, sublease, lease
      purchase or other agreement shall not constitute a  debt  of  the  state
      within the meaning of any constitutional and/or statutory provisions and
      shall   be  deemed  executory  only  to  the  extent  state  moneys  are
      appropriated and that no liability shall be incurred by the state beyond
      the moneys appropriated for that purpose and  that  such  obligation  is
      subject to annual appropriations by the legislature.
        (d)  On  or  before  November  fifteenth  of  each year, the dormitory
      authority shall submit and thereafter may resubmit to  the  commissioner
      of  general  services,  the director of the budget, the comptroller, the
      chairperson of the senate finance committee and the chairperson  of  the
      assembly  ways  and means committee, a report setting forth the amounts,
      if any, of all annual rentals and other payments estimated to be due  in
      the  succeeding  state  fiscal  year to the dormitory authority from the
      department of audit and control pursuant to any lease,  sublease,  lease
      purchase,  or  other  agreement  between the dormitory authority and the
      office of general services on behalf of  the  department  of  audit  and
      control   entered   into  on  or  after  July  first,  nineteen  hundred
    
      ninety-seven to provide facilities  for  the  department  of  audit  and
      control,  the  New York state and local employees' retirement system and
      the New York state and local police and fire retirement system.
        (e)  Notwithstanding  any provision of law to the contrary, any lease,
      sublease, lease purchase or other agreement, including any contract  for
      construction, reconstruction, rehabilitation or improvement entered into
      pursuant  to  this subdivision shall not be subject to public auction or
      bidding or any restriction as to the term of such lease, sublease, lease
      purchase or other agreement; provided however, that, with respect to any
      lease, sublease, lease purchase, or other agreement for  facilities  for
      the  department  of  audit  and  control,  the  New York state and local
      employees' retirement system and the New York state and local police and
      fire retirement system, the dormitory  authority  shall  determine  that
      there  has  been  a  competitive  process  sufficient to comply with the
      authority's procurement contract  guidelines  as  required  pursuant  to
      section twenty-eight hundred seventy-nine of this chapter.
        (f) Nothing herein shall be construed to diminish the authority of the
      comptroller,  in his capacity as trustee of the New York state and local
      employees' retirement system and the New York state and local police and
      fire retirement system, to  be  a  party  to  any  agreement  authorized
      pursuant to paragraph (a) of this subdivision or, in accordance with the
      provisions of this title to enter into separate leases, subleases, lease
      purchases  or  other agreements with the dormitory authority pursuant to
      which one or more facilities are to be designed, acquired,  constructed,
      reconstructed, rehabilitated, improved or otherwise provided for the New
      York state and local employees' retirement system and the New York state
      and local police and fire retirement system.
        36.  (a)  The dormitory authority is empowered and authorized to enter
      into a lease, sublease, lease purchase,  or  other  agreement  with  the
      office  of  general  services of the state of New York pursuant to which
      one or more  facilities  are  to  be  acquired,  designed,  constructed,
      reconstructed,  rehabilitated,  improved or otherwise made available for
      the provision of parking facilities for the state of  New  York  in  the
      city of Albany, New York and pursuant to which such facilities are to be
      furnished  or  equipped  and  in  furtherance of such authorization, the
      commissioner of general services is hereby empowered to grant or  convey
      to  the  dormitory  authority,  such  lands as may be necessary for such
      purposes upon such terms and conditions as the commissioner  of  general
      services  may  fix and determine provided, however, that any contract or
      lease for construction, reconstruction or rehabilitation  authorized  by
      this  subdivision  shall  be governed by article eight of the labor law.
      Such lease, sublease, lease purchase, or other agreement may provide for
      the payment of annual rentals and other payments by  the  state  of  New
      York  on  behalf  of the departments or agencies having occupancy or use
      thereof to the dormitory authority from appropriations  as  provided  in
      paragraph  (c)  of this subdivision and may contain such other terms and
      conditions as may be agreed upon by the parties thereto,  including  but
      not  limited to, provisions relating to the maintenance and operation of
      the facilities, the establishment of reserve funds, indemnities and  the
      disposition  of  a  facility  or the interest of the dormitory authority
      therein, if any, prior to or upon  termination  or  expiration  of  such
      lease,   sublease,  lease  purchase  or  other  agreement.  Such  lease,
      sublease, lease purchase, or other agreement shall  be  subject  to  the
      approval of the director of the budget.
        (b)  Any  such  lease,  sublease,  lease  purchase, or other agreement
      entered  into  pursuant  to  this  subdivision  may  provide  that   the
      provisions thereof shall remain in full force and effect until the issue
      of  the  bonds  of the dormitory authority to which it relates, together
    
      with interest thereon, interest on any unpaid installments  of  interest
      and  the fees and expenses of the dormitory authority, are fully met and
      discharged, and any payments to be made by the state,  pursuant  to  any
      lease,  sublease, lease purchase, or other agreement authorized pursuant
      to this subdivision may be pledged by the dormitory authority to  secure
      such bonds.
        (c)  Any  lease,  sublease,  lease purchase or other agreement entered
      into pursuant to this subdivision by and between the dormitory authority
      and the state of New York by the office of general services with respect
      to such parking  facilities  shall  provide  for  state  commitments  to
      provide  annually  an amount equal to the aggregate amount of all annual
      rental due to the dormitory authority from the state on  behalf  of  the
      state   departments  and  agencies  having  occupancy  or  use  of  such
      facilities. Any such lease, sublease, lease purchase or other  agreement
      shall  further  provide  that the obligation of the state to appropriate
      amounts to pay annual rentals due to the dormitory authority pursuant to
      any such lease, sublease, lease purchase or other  agreement  shall  not
      constitute  a debt of the state within the meaning of any constitutional
      and/or statutory provisions and shall be deemed executory  only  to  the
      extent  state  moneys  are  appropriated  and that no liability shall be
      incurred by the state beyond the moneys appropriated  for  that  purpose
      and  that  such  obligation  is  subject to annual appropriations by the
      legislature.
        (d) On or before  November  fifteenth  of  each  year,  the  dormitory
      authority  shall  submit  to  the  commissioner of general services, the
      director of the budget, the comptroller, the chairperson of  the  senate
      finance  committee  and  the  chairperson of the assembly ways and means
      committee, a report setting forth the amounts, if  any,  of  all  annual
      rentals  and  other payments estimated to be due in the succeeding state
      fiscal year to the dormitory authority pursuant to any lease,  sublease,
      lease  purchase,  or other agreement between the dormitory authority and
      the office of general services on  behalf  of  the  state  entered  into
      hereafter to provide for parking facilities for the state of New York in
      the city of Albany.
        (e)  Notwithstanding  any provision of law to the contrary, any lease,
      sublease, lease purchase or other agreement  entered  into  pursuant  to
      this  subdivision  shall  not be subject to public auction or bidding or
      any restrictions as to the term of such lease, sublease, lease  purchase
      or other agreement for the provisions of parking services in the city of
      Albany.

      otherwise made payable by the federal government,  any  agency  thereof,
      the  state  government,  any  agency thereof, a political subdivision as
      defined in section one hundred of the general municipal law, any  social
      service  district  in the state of New York or by any other governmental
      entity in an amount sufficient to make all payments required to be  made
      by  such  entity  pursuant to any necessary or useful agreements entered
      into between such entity and the  dormitory  authority.  All  state  and
      local officials are hereby authorized and required to pay all such funds
      so  assigned  and  pledged  to  the  dormitory  authority  or,  upon the
      direction of the dormitory authority, to any trustee  of  any  dormitory
      authority  bond  or note issued pursuant to a certificate filed with any
      state or local officer  by  the  dormitory  authority  pursuant  to  the
      provisions of this subdivision.
        38.  a.  The  dormitory authority is empowered and authorized to enter
      into a lease, sublease or  other  agreement  with  any  school  district
      pursuant  to  which the dormitory authority may finance or refinance all
      or any portion of school district capital facilities and school district
      capital equipment for such school districts. Any such lease, sublease or
      other agreement may provide for joint  facilities  pursuant  to  section
      thirty-six  hundred  two  of  the education law pursuant to an agreement
      with participating school districts as authorized in such section.  Such
      lease,  sublease  or  other  agreement  may  provide for annual or other
      payments to the dormitory authority  by  or  on  behalf  of  the  school
      district. Such lease, sublease or other agreement may contain such other
      terms  and  conditions  as  may  be  agreed upon by the parties thereto,
      including, but not limited to, the establishment of  reserve  funds  and
      indemnities.  A  lease,  sublease  or  other agreement entered into by a
      school district with the dormitory authority pursuant to the  provisions
    
      of  this  section  shall  not  be  deemed  to be an installment purchase
      contract, contract for public  work  or  purchase  contract  within  the
      meaning of article five-A of the general municipal law or any other law.
        b.  (1)  Except as provided in subparagraph two of this paragraph, any
      such lease, sublease, or other agreement shall not constitute or  create
      indebtedness  of  the  state  or a political subdivision for purposes of
      article seven or eight of the state constitution or section 20.00 of the
      local finance law, shall be deemed executory only to the extent of money
      appropriated annually therefor by the state or political subdivision and
      shall not constitute a contractual obligation in excess of  the  amounts
      so  appropriated;  provided  however  that  the  total  amount of unpaid
      payments due under any such lease, sublease or agreement on  account  of
      principal  due  on  bonds  issued by the authority shall be deemed to be
      indebtedness within the meaning of subdivision three of paragraph  a  of
      section  135.00  of  the local finance law except to the extent that any
      portion of the indebtedness, if issued by the school district, would  be
      excluded pursuant to section 136.00 of the local finance law.
        (2)  A  school  district shall have full power and authority to pledge
      its full faith and credit for the payment  of  its  obligations  to  the
      dormitory  authority  pursuant to any lease, sublease or other agreement
      entered into pursuant to this subdivision. Any such lease,  sublease  or
      other  agreement  shall  be authorized in the same manner as is required
      for the adoption of a bond resolution by the school district  under  the
      local  finance  law.  The  total  amount  of  all unpaid annual payments
      constituting the principal of any  indebtedness  for  which  the  school
      district  shall  have pledged its faith and credit shall be deemed to be
      indebtedness of the school district within the meaning  of  subparagraph
      (b)  of  subdivision three of paragraph a of section 135.00 of the local
      finance law and section ten of article eight of the  state  constitution
      and   such   lease,   sublease   or  other  agreement  shall  constitute
      indebtedness for purposes of article eight of the constitution  and  the
      local finance law.
        c. Notwithstanding the provisions of any general or special law to the
      contrary,  school districts may, subject to the requirements, if any, of
      voter approval contained in the education law or any other law, transfer
      title or grant any other property interests or rights to  the  dormitory
      authority  and  the  dormitory authority may transfer title or grant any
      other real property interests to such school districts.
        d. Any such lease, sublease or other agreement entered  into  pursuant
      to this subdivision may provide that the provisions thereof shall remain
      in  force  and effect until the bonds, notes or other obligations of the
      dormitory authority are no longer outstanding, together with interest on
      any unpaid installments of interest and the fees  and  expenses  of  the
      dormitory  authority,  are fully met and discharged, and any payments to
      be made by or  on  behalf  of  the  school  district  to  the  dormitory
      authority  may be pledged to secure such bonds. Any such lease, sublease
      or other agreement may provide for joint facilities pursuant to  section
      thirty-six  hundred  two  of the education law through an agreement with
      participating districts as authorized in such section.
        e. (1) Whenever the dormitory authority issues bonds, notes  or  other
      obligations  for  a  school  district pursuant to any lease, sublease or
      other agreement, the school district is authorized to assign and  pledge
      to  the  dormitory  authority a sufficient portion of any and all public
      funds to be apportioned or otherwise to be made payable by the state  of
      New York to the school district to cover the payments required under the
      lease,  sublease or other agreement between the authority and the school
      district. All state and local officials concerned are hereby  authorized
      to  apportion  and  pay  all  such  funds so assigned and pledged to the
    
      dormitory authority. Such assignment and pledge by any  school  district
      shall  be  irrevocable  and  shall  continue until the date on which the
      liabilities of the school district and the  authority  for  such  school
      district  capital  facilities and school district capital equipment have
      been discharged and the bonds of the authority issued therefor have been
      paid or such bonds have otherwise been discharged.
        (2) The total amount payable annually to the dormitory authority shall
      be certified by the authority to the commissioner of education, and  the
      authority  shall  annually  prepare  and  certify to the commissioner of
      education a statement of the total amount necessary to be  paid  by  all
      school  districts  for  the ensuing school year. The dormitory authority
      may provide the commissioner of education such additional statements  as
      the authority deems necessary.
        (3)  The commissioner of education shall include in the certificate he
      or she files with the state comptroller the amount to  be  owed  by  the
      school district to the dormitory authority for the ensuing school year.
        (4)  The  state  comptroller  shall pay to the dormitory authority and
      shall deduct from any state funds to  become  due  to  any  such  school
      district  an  amount  equal  to  the  amount required to be paid by such
      school district to the dormitory authority as shown by  the  certificate
      of  the  commissioner  of  education filed with the state comptroller as
      required by subparagraph three of this paragraph.
        (5) In the event that the amount paid to  the  authority  pursuant  to
      subparagraph  four  of  this  paragraph  by  the  state  comptroller  is
      insufficient to meet any payment required by the school district to  the
      authority, any such amount still due and owing shall be paid directly to
      the  authority by the school district pursuant to any lease, sublease or
      other agreement between the authority and the school district.
        39. The dormitory authority shall not  issue  its  obligations  for  a
      school  district pursuant to subdivision thirty-eight of this section to
      refund or refinance all or any portion of any  outstanding  indebtedness
      of  such  school  district  except:  (i)  to  refund dormitory authority
      obligations previously issued for  such  school  district;  or  (ii)  to
      refund  or  refinance all or any portion of any outstanding indebtedness
      issued by a school district prior to December first, two  thousand  one,
      or  prior  to  thirty days after the effective date of this subdivision,
      whichever is later, for the purpose of financing facilities  which  were
      eligible  for building aid pursuant to section thirty-six hundred two of
      the education law and for  which  the  approved  expenditures  for  debt
      service payable in any year are subsequently reduced; or (iii) to refund
      or  refinance  all or any portion of any outstanding indebtedness issued
      by a school district prior to December first, two thousand one or  prior
      to thirty days after the effective date of this subdivision whichever is
      later provided that present value of the total payments to become due to
      the  authority  from  the  school  district  on account of principal and
      interest are less than the present value of the principal  and  interest
      payments  to  become  due  on the bonds to be refunded with such present
      value savings  to  be  computed  as  provided  in  subparagraph  (a)  of
      subdivision  two  of  paragraph  b of section 90.10 of the local finance
      law; or (iv) to refinance all or any portion of  any  bond  anticipation
      notes  of  a  school  district  issued  to finance a school construction
      project.  In  the  event  that  the  dormitory  authority   issues   its
      obligations  on  behalf  of  a  school  district  as  provided  in  this
      subdivision: (i) no lease, sublease or other agreement entered  into  by
      the  school district pursuant to this subdivision shall, notwithstanding
      any other provision of law to the contrary, be subject to  the  approval
      of  voters of the school district and (ii) the proceeds of any refunding
      bonds issued by the authority, including any interest earnings  thereon,
    
      shall  be  held  in trust under the terms of an escrow agreement for the
      benefit of the  holders  of  such  refunded  obligations  in  an  amount
      sufficient to provide for the payment of the principal, redemption price
      and  interest  due on the refunded obligations of the school district to
      their stated maturities or, if such bonds are to be called, to the  call
      date.
        40.  a.  Any  lease,  sublease  or  other agreement by and between the
      dormitory authority and any residential institution for children  shall,
      in  addition  to  any other provisions deemed necessary by the dormitory
      authority, contain the following:
        (1) a  requirement  that  the  residential  institution  for  children
      establish  an  account  with  a  bank or trust company acceptable to the
      dormitory authority into which the residential institution for  children
      shall  deposit,  or  cause to be deposited, all amounts received by such
      residential institution for children from any  school  district,  social
      service  district  or  any  other  payor  on  account of the residential
      services provided by such  residential  institution  for  children.  The
      residential  institution  for  children  shall  grant  to  the dormitory
      authority a security interest in such account and the moneys on  deposit
      therein  shall  be  subject to withdrawal by the residential institution
      for children only after the payment of amounts then due to the dormitory
      authority as provided in such lease, sublease or other agreement;
        (2) a requirement that the residential institution for children  grant
      to  the  dormitory authority either a mortgage on the real property used
      by the residential  institution  for  children  to  provide  residential
      services or such other interest in real property as is acceptable to the
      dormitory authority;
        (3)  a  requirement  that  the  residential  institution  for children
      continue to operate a residential program  for  foster  children  and/or
      children  placed  by  the  committee  on  special  education of a school
      district pursuant to contracts with social services districts or  school
      districts  for the term of the lease, sublease or other agreement and in
      the event such residential institution for  children  fails  to  do  so,
      provide  for the transfer and operation of the residential facilities to
      a replacement not-for-profit operator that is qualified to provide  such
      services  and  that  has  assumed  the  obligations  of such residential
      institution for children pursuant to such agreement;
        (4) a  requirement  that  the  residential  institution  for  children
      include  in each of its contracts with a social service district, school
      district or any other payor a provision requiring that  the  residential
      institution  for children will deposit, or cause to be deposited, all of
      its maintenance rate payments from such social service district,  school
      district   or   other  payor  into  the  separate  account  required  by
      subparagraph one of this paragraph. In the event of the failure  of  the
      applicable  social  services  district  or  school  district  to  make a
      maintenance rate payment to the residential institution for children for
      residential care provided to a child in the residential institution  for
      children,  the  state  comptroller shall withhold state reimbursement to
      the applicable social services district or school district in an  amount
      equal to the unpaid obligation for the capital financing add-on rate and
      pay  over  such  sum  to  the  dormitory  authority  or its trustee upon
      certification of the commissioner of the office of children  and  family
      services or the state education department, as applicable; and
        (5) a requirement that the residential institution for children pay to
      the  dormitory authority the amount required to pay the principal of and
      interest on obligations of the dormitory authority issued in relation to
      providing such facilities and all incidental expenses of  the  dormitory
      authority incurred in relation thereto.
    
        b.  The  dormitory  authority  shall  not  issue any bonds or notes in
      excess of sixty million dollars for the purpose of financing  the  costs
      related   to   residential  institutions  for  children  as  defined  in
      subdivision forty-four of section sixteen hundred  seventy-six  of  this
      title.  In calculating the amount of bonds or notes outstanding pursuant
      to this subdivision, the principal amount of bonds or  notes  issued  to
      fund  one  or  more  debt service reserve funds, the principal amount of
      bonds or notes issued to pay the costs of issuance of  such  bonds,  and
      the  principal  amount  of  bonds or notes issued to refund or otherwise
      repay such bonds and bonds or notes previously issued shall be  excluded
      therefrom.  Except  for  purposes of complying with the internal revenue
      code, any interest income earned on bond proceeds shall only be used  to
      pay debt service on such bonds or notes.
