Legislative Update

 

At the close of the 2009 legislative session, two pieces of legislation affecting 21C programs were acted upon.  H.427 Miscellaneous Amendments to Education Law was passed by both the House and Senate, and the governor has allowed H.427 to pass into law without his signature.   Two areas within H.427 directly impact 21C programs.

  • 21st Century Community Learning Centers that do not choose to participate in the child care subsidy program are exempt from the requirement of holding a child care facility license.
  • Financial support for 21st Century Community Learning Centers within school budgets is exempt from the calculation for determining whether a school budget is presented as a divided question (two-vote).  Unfortunately, the exemption for 21st CCLC funding from the excess spending threshold calculation was cut from the bill while being reviewed in the Senate.

 

 For the complete text of H.427, see below:
