Synopsis As Introduced
Creates the Local School District Mandate Note Act. Provides that, every bill that imposes or could impose a mandate on local school districts, upon the request of any member, shall have prepared for it, before second reading in the house of introduction, a brief explanatory statement or note that shall include a reliable estimate of the anticipated fiscal and operational impact of those mandates on local school districts. Provides that the sponsor of each bill for which a request has been made shall present a copy of the bill with the request for a local school district mandate note to the State Board of Education. Provides that the State Board of Education shall prepare and submit the note to the sponsor of the bill within 5 calendar days, except as specified. Sets forth provisions concerning the requisites and contents of the note; comments or opinions included in the note; and the appearance of State officials and employees in support or opposition of measure.

House Committee Amendment No. 1
Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Reinserts the provisions of the introduced bill with the following changes. Provides that, after a request for a Local School District Mandate Note has been made and before the State Board of Education submits the note to the sponsor of the bill, local school districts may, through a website maintained by the State Board of Education, submit explanatory statements that may include a reliable estimate of the anticipated fiscal, operational, and other impacts of the proposed mandate on the local school district. Provides that the State Board of Education shall develop and maintain a website to accept submissions from local school districts. Provides that the note submitted to the sponsor of the bill shall only include the submissions from local school districts. Provides that nothing in the provision shall impose any responsibility on the State Board of Education except to develop and maintain a website, accept submissions from local school districts, and submit a note to the sponsor of the bill containing the submissions from local school districts.

House Floor Amendment No. 2
Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Creates the School District Mandate Task Force Act. Provides that the School District Mandate Task Force is created for the purpose of conducting a Statewide study to determine the information and data sets needed to establish a system that provides a timely and reliable estimate of the anticipated fiscal, operational, and other impacts that a bill filed in the General Assembly imposes or may impose through mandates on a local school district. Sets forth provisions concerning membership, compensation, administrative support, and meetings. Provides that the Task Force shall submit its final report, including model language that may be used as legislation, to the General Assembly and the State Board of Education on or before November 15, 2024 and, upon the filing of its final report, the Task Force is dissolved.
