Introduced by: Kristen J. Amundson | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:
Comptroller; school division efficiency reviews. Directs the Comptroller, upon written request by a local school board, or the division superintendent, to conduct a review of the relevant school division’s central operations. The review will examine noninstructional expenditures and will identify opportunities to improve operational efficiencies and reduce costs for the division; the review will not address the effectiveness of the educational services being delivered.
Reviews are free of charge to the division and are to be conducted within two years of the request. The Department of Accounts must provide a report of its findings to the reviewed school division. The Comptroller shall conduct the reviews within two calendar years of such request and shall, in his discretion, determine the sequence, timing, and duration of such reviews.
