HB 735 Computation of the composite index of local ability-to-pay.
Introduced by: R. Creigh Deeds | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY:
Computation of the composite index of local ability-to-pay. Provides a procedure for appealing the computation of the composite index of local ability-to-pay before a review committee consisting of three Board of Education members, the Superintendent of Public Instruction, the Secretary of Education or his designee, and the Secretary of Finance or his designee. The school boards are authorized to petition the Board for review of the determination of the cost apportioned to the school boards for maintaining an educational program meeting the Standards of Quality. The petition cannot be more than once in two consecutive calendar years. The Superintendent of Public Instruction must prepare a detailed analysis of the school board's LCI and related computations. The Board will review this formula and, upon a finding of extenuating circumstances which may significantly affect the computation of the costs, grant the appeal and convene the committee to hear the appeal. The Department of Education may incorporate any review committee findings which require adjustments to the calculations of the petitioning school board's apportioned costs of the Standards of Quality. This measure was carried over by the House Education Committee.
