 3 the Allegany Territory of the Seneca Nation of Indians which is within
 4 the Salamanca city school district, the Salamanca city school district
 5 receives federal impact aid for support of services to students.
 6 Responsible fiscal planning requires establishment of a federal impact
 7 reserve fund for the purpose of stabilizing the tax levy while maintain-
 8 ing educational programming and services, in the event that such aid is
 9 no longer provided to such district.
 10 § 2. Definitions. As used in this act:
 11 (a) "Board of education" or "board" means the board of education of
 12 the district.
 13 (b) "Federal impact aid reserve fund" or "fund" means the district
 14 federal impact aid reserve fund established pursuant to this act in the
 15 event of reduction or loss of federal impact aid.
 16 (c) "School district" or "district" means the Salamanca city school
 17 district.
 18 § 3. The board of education is hereby authorized to establish a feder-
 19 al impact aid reserve fund for the purpose of tax stabilization in the
 20 event federal impact aid is reduced provided that the amount of such
 21 reserve shall not exceed five million dollars ($5,000,000); provided,
 22 however, that no such fund shall be established unless approved by a
 23 majority vote of the voters of the district present and voting on a
 24 separate ballot proposition therefor at either a special district meet-

 1 ing which the board of education may call for such purpose or at the
 2 annual district meeting and election, to be noticed and conducted in
 3 either case in accordance with article 41 of the education law. Such
 4 separate proposition shall set forth the maximum allowable balance to be
 5 deposited and held in the federal impact aid reserve fund. Moneys shall
 6 be paid into and withdrawn from the fund and the fund shall be adminis-
 7 tered as follows:
 8 (a) the board of education is hereby authorized to make payments into
 9 the federal impact aid reserve fund with funds from any unassigned fund
 10 balance which accrued prior to the establishment of the federal impact
 11 aid reserve fund in an amount not to exceed the balance over any maximum
 12 allowable balance in such unassigned fund balance and from any reserve
 13 funds authorized or required by law in amounts which the board of educa-
 14 tion shall determine are not reasonably necessary for the purpose of
 15 such fund or funds and which accrued prior to the federal impact aid
 16 reserve fund provided that no such payment from any unassigned fund
 17 balance or any reserve fund shall cause the balance of the fund to
 18 exceed the amount approved in the ballot proposal described in this
 19 section;
 20 (b) the board of education shall determine that the original purpose
 21 for which a reserve fund has been established is no longer desirable,
 22 the school authorities may liquidate such fund by applying the balance
 23 thereof to the annual tax
