SB182,1,2
1An Act to create 121.15 (1m) (a) 3. of the statutes;
relating to: phasing out the
2annual delay in school aid payments.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, annually the state delays $75,000,000 in school aid
payments until the fourth Monday in July of the following school year.
This bill phases out this delay in school aid payments. The bill reduces the
amount of the delayed payment to $56,250,000 in the 2001-02 school year, to
$37,500,000 in the 2002-03 school year, to $18,750,000 in the 2003-04 school year,
and to zero thereafter.
For further information see the state and local fiscal estimate, which will be
printed as an appendix to this bill.
