New York S01309 requires bills with unfunded mandates for counties or municipalities to be reviewed by the state comptroller before certification.

New York S01309 amends the legislative law to mandate that any bill containing an unfunded mandate for a county or municipality must be referred to the state comptroller for an opinion before it can be certified. This change ensures that the state comptroller reviews the financial implications of such mandates on local governments before the bill is finalized and sent to the governor. The bill aims to provide a layer of fiscal scrutiny to protect local governments from unexpected financial burdens.
