        AN  ACT to amend the state finance law, in relation to five-year capital
          plans for the state university of New York and the city university  of
          New York

          The  People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-

     1    Section 1. Section 22-c of the state finance law is amended by  adding
     2  a new subdivision 7 to read as follows:

    12  infrastructure  or  other  major  capital  initiatives  shall  not count
    13  towards meeting the overall critical maintenance requirement.    In  the
    14  event  that such plan is unable to fund one hundred percent of the crit-
    15  ical maintenance needs due to the limitation imposed by  article  five-B

     2  university system. For  the  purposes  of  this  subdivision,  "facility
     3  condition  index"  shall  mean  an  industry benchmark that measures the
     4  ratio  of  deferred  maintenance  dollars to replacement dollars for the
