Nathan Mayberg reports in the Register Star the state Assembly voted unanimously, Mon., June 17, to appropriate $90 million to the Office of People with Developmental Disabilities. This action will ensure Claverack-based Coarc continues to receive its full rate of reimbursement from the state. Coarc officials projected a loss of up to $1 million in funding as the result of cuts in the state's 2014 budget. Legislators and Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo agreed the funds would be restored from additional savings found through cost efficiencies, reducing administrative funding and through audits of nonprofit agencies. If those savings are not realized, the rest of the money will be appropriated through the general fund. Read the full story in the Register Star.
