2515-C - Use of funds. - New York Statutes

§ 2515-c. Use of funds. 1. Subject to amounts made available therefor, such funds shall be made available for up to seventy-five percent of approved community service project plan expenditures after first deducting therefrom any federal or other state funds received or to be received on account thereof. The remaining twenty-five percent cost of such plan may be met by local governmental or private funds, services or property. The commissioner, within his or her discretion, may, however, waive the twenty-five percent requirement for the year if he or she determines that a plan, which otherwise meets the requirements of this title, is unable to obtain local governmental or private funding, services or property. Any such waiver shall be requested upon submittal of such plan to the commissioner. No more than five percent of the funds approved under this article shall be retained by the department for administrative and evaluation purposes. 2. Funds granted to not-for-profit corporations or governmental entities pursuant to the adolescent pregnancy prevention and services program shall not be used to supplant other federal, state or local funds.
