Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the State Mandates Act. Requires the State Board of Education to collect and maintain information concerning State mandates for schools, determine the statewide implementation of State mandates for schools, review school district applications for reimbursement submitted under the Act where the General Assembly has appropriated funds to reimburse school districts for costs associated with the implementation of a State mandate, and annually report to the Governor and the General Assembly regarding the administration of the Act and changes proposed to the Act that concern schools. Requires the Legislative Research Unit to conduct public hearings as needed to review the information collected and the recommendations made by the Board. Provides that within 2 years following the effective date of the amendatory Act, the Board shall collect and tabulate relevant information as to the nature and scope of each existing State mandate for schools. Further provides that failure of the General Assembly to appropriate adequate funds for reimbursement to schools as required by this Act shall not relieve the Board from these obligations. Requires that fiscal notes on bills creating State mandates shall include actual implementation cost data and analysis generated by school districts. Makes changes concerning appeals under the Act.
