A. Definitions. As used in this section, the foll~)wing, terms shall have the
meanings indicated:

Section 1. Legislative Intent.
This Legislature hereby finds and dctermines that Suffolk County's comprehensive
Contractor/Vendor Public Disclosure Statement Law currently applies to a broad array of
contracts that exceed one thousand dollars ($1,000.) in value, suhjec~ to exemptions for
contractors doing business with the County Department of Social Services; hospitals;
educational, medical~ and governmental entities; and not-for-profit corporations.
This Legislature further finds and determines that these exemptions prevent fulJ
disclosure of important information that may be useful to elected county officials in
determining whether or not specific types of contracts are in the public interest, especially
in light of recent trends towards pdvafizafion and use of outside consultants on an
increased basis by municipalities.
Therefore, the purpose of this law is to eliminate many of the exemptions from completing
and filing verified public disclosure statements with the County Comptroller available to
certain contractors providing social services or health services oontracts.
CONTRACTOR or VENDOR [Amended 12-18-1990 by L.L. No. 41-
19902; 6-29-1993 by L.L. No. 28-'19933] -
Any proprietorship, partnership or closely held corporafiod which has a
contract with Suffolk County. in excess of one thousand dollars ($1,000.) or
which has three (3) or more contracts with Suffolk County, any three (3) of

(1) Hospitals.
(2) Educational or governmental entities.
