        AN ACT to amend the general municipal law, in relation to  removing  the
          requirement  that    where a municipal corporation, school district or

          ration of plans and specifications for a proposed capital improvement,
          there must be a waiting period of at least one year before authorizing
          the undertaking of the capital improvement
 
          The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and  Assem-
        bly, do enact as follows:
 
     1    Section  1.  Subdivisions  2,  3  and 4 of section 99-d of the general

     4  are amended to read as follows:
     5    2. [Where the cost of such advance planning of a  capital  improvement
     6  is  financed  by  the  issuance  of bonds or capital notes and where the
     7  period of probable usefulness  specified  by  subdivision  sixty-two  of
     8  paragraph a of section 11.00 of the local finance law is applicable, the
     9  municipal corporation, school district or district corporation shall not
    10  have power to authorize the undertaking of the capital improvement until
    11  at  least  one  year  after  the  original issuance of such obligations;
    12  provided, however, that when bond anticipation  notes  shall  have  been
    13  issued  prior to such bonds, such one year period shall be computed from
    14  the date of such bond anticipation notes.
    15    3.] The total amount of bonds or capital notes which may be authorized
    16  in any fiscal year of the  municipal  corporation,  school  district  or
    17  district  corporation  to finance such advance planning pursuant to this
    18  section shall not exceed the maximum amount of budget notes which it may
    19  issue in such year pursuant to subdivision two or subdivision  three  of
    20  paragraph  a  of section 29.00 of the local finance law, as the case may
    21  be, provided, however,  that  for  the  purposes  of  this  subdivision,
