A 11296 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Permits the Vestal Central School District to create an insurance reserve fund

This bill allows the Vestal Central School District to establish an insurance reserve fund to help cover specific insurance claims and legal judgments. The legislation amends state law to explicitly include this school district alongside other existing districts that are permitted to create such funds. Under the new rules, the district can use money from the reserve to pay for losses related to risks where insurance is required, provided it does not already have a separate reserve for those same risks. The bill takes effect immediately upon passage, giving the school board the authority to set up the fund and begin managing it according to state guidelines.
