What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill requires the school board of a school district to notify certain interested

parties, including members of the community, prior to commencing a construction

project. The notice requirement applies to a construction project with an estimated

cost of $10,000 or greater that will occur in a school building in which pupils,

teachers, and administrators will be present. With certain exceptions, the school

board must provide notice at least two months prior to the start date. Notice may

be provided by mail, by publication in a newspaper likely to give notice to interested

persons, or at a public hearing. Notice to parents and guardians of pupils and others

who are assigned to the school building may be provided by e-mail or through a letter

sent home with the interested party.
