Summary

Pursuant to Local Law, the City currently operates a program to provide reimbursement to nonpublic schools for costs related to employing security guards. This legislation will expand this program by providing reimbursement for the purchase and installation of video surveillance cameras. Reimbursement levels would be capped based on enrollment size. The administering agency would further consider qualifying nonpublic schools’ tuition costs and other relevant factors in determining reimbursement levels and potential cost-sharing obligations.
