§ 3666. 2000 fiscal year budget modification. 1. The control period as  set  forth  in section thirty-six hundred sixty-nine of this title shall  be instituted on June thirtieth, two thousand, unless prior to such date  (a) the county executive, after approval by the legislature, shall  have  submitted to the authority a modification to the county's budget for the  2000  fiscal  year, as in effect on May tenth, two thousand; and (b) the  authority shall have determined that such modification when  implemented  will  ensure  a  reduction  of  the  projected gap, through recurring or  nonrecurring actions, for the 2000 fiscal year and,  together  with  any  budget modifications prior to May tenth, two thousand, through recurring  actions,  for  the  three next succeeding fiscal years, in an amount not  less than fifty million dollars per year.    2. In order that such budget modification be effective  on  or  before  June  thirtieth,  two  thousand, the county executive shall within seven  days following the effective  date  of  this  title  submit  a  proposed  modification  to  the  legislature.  Within  seven  days thereafter, the  legislature  shall   approve   such   modification   or   a   substitute  modification.  Upon  approval  by  the legislature, the county executive  shall submit such modification to the authority. Not later than ten days  after  such  budget  modification  shall  have  been  submitted  to  the  authority,  the authority shall approve or disapprove such modification,  provided that the authority may approve such modification only upon  its  determination  that  such modification when implemented will ensure such  reduction of the projected gap for  each  fiscal  year  as  required  by  subdivision one of this section.    3.   In   the   event  the  authority  shall  disapprove  such  budget  modification based on disapproval of certain actions or assumptions, the  authority shall promptly thereafter notify the county executive  of  its  reasons.    The county executive shall thereafter, after approval by the  legislature,  resubmit  a  budget  modification,  based  on  actions  or  assumptions   other  than  those  that  have  been  disapproved  by  the  authority, for consideration by the authority and in sufficient time for  the authority to have a seven day review period prior to June thirtieth,  two thousand.
