 Introduced by M. of A. BOLOGNA -- read once and referred to the Commit-
 tee on Election Law

 AN ACT to amend the election law, in relation to authorizing public
 school buildings to reject a designation as a polling place

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 1 Section 1. Subdivision 3 of section 4-104 of the election law, as
 2 amended by chapter 694 of the laws of 1989, is amended to read as
 3 follows:
 4 3. A board or body empowered to designate polling places shall desig-
 5 nate any public building as a polling place to the extent practicable.
 6 If additional polling places shall be needed, a building exempt from
 7 taxation shall be used whenever possible [as a polling place], if it is
 8 situated in the same or a contiguous election district, and may contain
 9 as many distinctly separate polling places as public convenience may
 10 require. The expense, if any, incidental to its use, shall be paid like
 11 the expense of other places of registration and voting. If a board or
 12 body empowered to designate polling places chooses a public school
 13 building for such purpose, the board or agency which controls such
 14 building must make available a room or rooms in such building which are
 15 suitable for registration and voting and which are as close as possible
 16 to a convenient entrance to such building and must make available any
 17 such room or rooms which the board or body designating such building
 18 determines are accessible to physically disabled voters as provided in
 19 subdivision one-a of this section; provided, however, not later than
 20 forty-five days after a public school building receives notice of its
 21 designation as a polling place, the board or agency which controls such
 22 building may file a certified resolution rejecting such designation,
 23 upon adoption of a resolution following a public hearing, with such
 24 board or body empowered to designate polling places. Notwithstanding the
 25 provisions of any general, special, or local law, a board or agency

 1 which controls a public school building, upon adoption of a resolution
 2 following a public hearing, may notify a board or body empowered to
 3 designate polling places by an affirmative certified resolution that a
 4 certain public school building shall not be designated as a polling
 5 place. Notwithstanding the provisions of any general, special or local
 6 law, if a board or body empowered to designate polling places chooses a
 7 publicly owned or leased building, other than a public school building,
 8 for such purposes the board or body which controls such building must
 9 make available a room or rooms in such building which are suitable for
 10 registration and voting and which are as close as possible to a conven-
 11 ient entrance to such building, and must make available any such room or
 12 rooms which the board or body designating such building determines are
 13 accessible to physically disabled voters unless, not later than thirty
 14 days after notice of its designation as a polling place, the board or
 15 body controlling such building, files a written request for a cancella-
 16 tion of such designation with the board or body empowered to designate
 17 polling places on such form as shall be provided by the board or body
 18 making such designation. The board or body empowered to so designate
 19 shall, wit
