What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill provides additional school aid in, and revenue limit authority for, the

2012-13 school year for certain school districts. The eligible school districts are those

in which employees were covered by a collective bargaining agreement on January

1, 2011, that is in effect through the 2012-13 school year.

Under the bill, each eligible school district's revenue limit for the 2012-13

school year is increased by an amount equal to 50 percent of the decrease in the

district's revenue limit in the 2011-12 school year. In addition, each eligible school

district's state aid in the 2012-13 school year is increased by an amount equal to the

amount of this revenue limit increase. The aid is paid as a first draw from the general

school aid appropriation, thus reducing the amount of general school aid distributed

to other school districts.
