What this bill does
Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, a school district may establish community education,
training, recreational, cultural, or athletic programs and services. The 2013-15
biennial budget act limits the amount that a school district may levy for such
community programs and activities in 2013 and 2014 to the amount that it levied for
community programs and services in the most recent year prior to 2013 in which it
levied for community programs and services.
This bill provides two exceptions to the limit described above:
1. If a school board levied more for community programs and services in 2011
than it levied for that purpose in 2012, its limit is the amount it levied for community
programs and services in 2011.
2. If a school board voted before July 1, 2013, to adopt a plan for its community
programs and services levy in 2013, its limit is the amount specified in the plan.
The bill also provides that if both exceptions apply to a school district, its limit
is the amount specified in the plan.
