What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, if a school board adopts a resolution to issue a bond or a

promissory note, the school district clerk must publish or post a notice except in

certain specified situations. The notice must state the maximum amount proposed

to be borrowed, the purpose of the borrowing, and the place where and the hours

during which the resolution may be inspected. If a school district applies for a state

trust fund loan, the notice must state the amount of the proposed loan and the

purpose for which it will be used.

This bill requires the above notices to also include the estimated amount of

interest costs, the estimated amount of other costs associated with issuing the bond

or promissory note or obtaining the loan, and the assumptions made with regard to

estimating interest and other costs.
