A\nmunicipality must provide all the core public health services identified\nin section six hundred two of this title to qualify for such base grant\nunless the municipality has the approval of the commissioner to expend\nthe base grant on a portion of such core public health services. If any\nservices in such section are not provided, the commissioner shall limit\nthe municipality's per capita or base grant to reflect the scope of the\nreduced services, in an amount not to exceed five hundred seventy-seven\nthousand five hundred dollars. The commissioner may use the amount that\nis not granted to contract with agencies, associations, or organizations\nto provide such services; or the health department may use such\nproportionate share to provide the services upon approval of the\ndirector of the division of the budget.\n 2. State aid reimbursement for public health services provided by a\nmunicipality under this title, shall be made if the municipality is\nproviding some or all of the core public health services identified in\nsection six hundred two of this title, pursuant to an approved\napplication for state aid, at a rate of no less than thirty-six per\ncentum of the difference between the amount of moneys expended by the\nmunicipality for public health services required by section six hundred\ntwo of this title during the fiscal year and the base grant provided\npursuant to subdivision one of this section. Provided, however, that a\nmunicipality's documented fringe benefit costs submitted under an\napplication for state aid and otherwise eligible for reimbursement under\nthis article shall not exceed fifty per centum of the municipality's\neligible personnel services. No such reimbursement shall be provided for\nservices that are not eligible for state aid pursuant to this article.\n 3. Municipalities shall make every reasonable effort to collect\npayments for public health services provided. All such revenues shall be\nreported to the commissioner pursuant to section six hundred six of this\ntitle and will be deducted from expenditures identified under\nsubdivision two of this section to produce a net cost eligible for state\naid.\n
