Bill summary
House committee substitute makes the following changes to the 1st ed.:
Adds new subsection (b1) that embodies the provisions of the new subsection (f) in the previous edition, and modifies those provisions to clarify that the subject of mediation is the amount of money appropriated to the local current expense fund. Modifies the formula for the sum to be appropriated for the fiscal year in dispute to now include, as the initial calculation in a new subdivision (1), the amount appropriated to the local current expense fund in the prior fiscal year that is expended in that year by the LEA or transferred as required by law divided by the sum of the average daily membership of the LEA plus the share of average daily membership of any innovative, charter, regional, or laboratory school whose students reside in the LEA for the prior school year. Further modifies the formula calculation in subdivision (3) to provide that the amount calculated under that subdivision shall be multiplied by the sum of the allotted average daily membership for the school year plus the share of the average daily membership of any innovative, charter, regional, or laboratory school whose students reside in the LEA for the budget year in dispute.
