JUSTIFICATION:
The Syosset Central School District is about to embark on a large build-
ing project to deal with the enrollment growth it has experienced. One
campus that is bulging at the seams is Berry Hilt Elementary School. The
problem with the school is that it is on a very narrow property and
there several challenges, which make construction difficult and expen-
sive.
The property is adjacent to state land. By transferring the State's 3.5
acres of land, it will make it much less challenging to build on the
Berry Hill property.
