§ 304. Expenses. The commissioner shall be paid his necessary

traveling and other expenses. However, notwithstanding any law, rule,

regulation or agreement to the contrary, the commissioner shall not be

provided an official residence, nor shall the salary plan for the

president of the university of the state of New York, as provided in

subdivision three of section one hundred sixty-nine of the executive

law, make provision for an official residence. The commissioner of the

office of general services is authorized to sell at fair market value

president of the university of the state of New York, as well as all

state-owned appurtenances associated with such residence. The proceeds

from such sale shall be deposited to the credit of the general fund.
