AB1003,1,3 An Act to create 121.91 (4) (f) of the statutes; relating to: increasing a school district's revenue limit for certain expenditures for maintenance of, and techno logical improvements to, school district facilities.

Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau

Current law limits the increase in the total amount of revenue that a school dis trict may receive from general school aids and property taxes. In the 1995-96 school year, the maximum allowable increase per pupil is $200. In each school year thereaf ter, the maximum allowable increase per pupil is $206. The limit is based on the dif ference between the average of the number of pupils enrolled in the 3 previous school years and the average of the number of pupils enrolled in the current and 2 preceding school years.

This bill increases a school district's revenue limit in any school year by the amount spent by the school district in the previous school year for maintenance of any school district facility, and the amount spent by the school district in the previous school year to develop or implement technological improvements to or in any school district facility.

For further information see the state and local fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
