 3 follows:
 4 § 54-m. Local share requirements associated with increasing the age of
 5 juvenile jurisdiction above fifteen years of age. Notwithstanding any
 6 other provision of law to the contrary, counties and the city of New
 7 York shall not be required to contribute a local share of eligible
 8 expenditures that would not have been incurred absent the provisions of
 9 [a] chapter fifty-nine of the laws of two thousand seventeen [that added
 10 this section unless the most recent budget adopted by a county that is
 11 subject to the provisions of section three-c of the general municipal
 12 law exceeded the tax levy limit prescribed in such section or the local
 13 government is not subject to the provisions of section three-c of the
 14 general municipal law; provided, however, that the state budget director
 15 shall be authorized to waive any local share of expenditures associated
 16 with a chapter of the laws of two thousand seventeen that increased the

 21 director shall consider the incremental cost to the locality related to
 22 increasing the age of juvenile jurisdiction, changes in state or federal
 23 aid payments, and other extraordinary costs, including the occurrence of
 24 a disaster as defined in paragraph a of subdivision two of section twen-
