 5  6411. (a) The state transportation weighting aid of each district shall be
 6  determined by the state board as follows:
 7    (1)  Determine the total expenditures of the district during the pre-
 8  ceding school year from all funds for transporting pupils of public and
 9  nonpublic schools on regular school routes;
10    (2)  divide the amount determined under (1) by the total number of
11  pupils who were included in the enrollment of the district in the preced-
12  ing school year and for whom transportation was made available by the
13  district;
14    (3)  multiply the quotient obtained under (2) by the total number of
15  pupils who were included in the enrollment of the district in the preced-
16   ing school year, were residing less than 21/2 miles by the usually traveled
17  road from the school building they attended, and for whom transportation
18  was made available by the district;
19    (4)  multiply the product obtained under (3) by 50%;
20    (5)  subtract the product obtained under (4) from the amount deter-
21  mined under (1);
22    (6)  divide the remainder obtained under (5) by the total number of
23  pupils who were included in the enrollment of the district in the preced-
24   ing school year, were residing 21/2 miles or more by the usually traveled
25  road from the school building they attended and for whom transportation
26  was made available by the district. The quotient is the per-pupil cost of
27  transportation;
28    (7)  on a density-cost graph plot the per-pupil cost of transportation
29  for each district;
30    (8)  construct a curve of best fit for the points so plotted;
31    (9)  locate the index of density for the district on the base line of the
32  density-cost graph and from the point on the curve of best fit directly
33  above this point of index of density follow a line parallel to the base line
34  to the point of intersection with the vertical line, which point is the for-
35  mula per-pupil cost of transportation of the district;
36    (10)  divide the formula per-pupil cost of transportation allowance of
37  the district by base state aid per pupil shall be 100% of the formula per-
38  pupil cost determined under (9) or 100% of the per-pupil cost determined
39  under (6), whichever is lower; and
40    (11)  multiply the quotient obtained per-pupil transportation allow-
41  ance determined under (10) by the number of pupils who are included in
42   the enrollment of the district, are residing 21/2 miles or more by the usually
43  traveled road to the school building they attend, and for whom transpor-
HB 2378
                                     
7

 1  tation is being made available by, and at the expense of, the district. The
 2  product is the state transportation weighting aid of the district.
 3    (b)  For the purpose of providing accurate and reliable data on pupil
 4  transportation, the state board is authorized to adopt rules and regulations
 5  prescribing procedures which districts shall follow in reporting pertinent
 6  information relative thereto, including uniform reporting of expenditures
 7  for transportation.
 8    (c)  ``Index of density'' means the number of pupils who are included
 9   in the enrollment of a district in the current school year, are residing 21/2
10  miles or more by the usually traveled road from the school building they
11  attend, and for whom transportation is being made available on regular
12  school routes by the district, divided by the number of square miles of
13  territory in the district.
14    (d)  ``Density-cost graph'' means a drawing having: (1) A horizontal or
15  base line divided into equal intervals of density, beginning with zero on
16  the left; and (2) a scale for per-pupil cost of transportation to be shown
17  on a line perpendicular to the base line at the left end thereof, such scale
18  to begin with zero dollars at the base line ascending by equal per-pupil
19  cost intervals.
20    (e)  ``Curve of best fit'' means the curve on a density-cost graph drawn
21  so the sum of the distances squared from such line to each of the points
22  plotted on the graph is the least possible.
23    (f)  The provisions of this section shall take effect and be in force from
24  and after July 1, 1992.
25    New Sec. 6.  The distribution of state transportation aid under this
26  act shall be made in accordance with appropriation acts from the state
27  general fund each year as provided in this section.
28    The amount of state transportation aid for each district as computed
29  by the state board shall be distributed in payments as follows:
30    (1)  On both September 25 and November 25, such payment shall be
31  an amount equal to 25% of the amount received by the district in the
32  preceding year for transportation;
33    (2)  on February 25 such payment shall be an amount equal to 25%
34  of the entire amount the district is entitled to receive in the current school
35  year; and
36    (3)  on April 25 such payment shall be an amount equal to the entire
37  amount which the district is entitled to receive in the current school year,
38  less the amounts paid to the district for transportation aid in the preceding
39  months of September, November and February. The state board shall
40  certify to the director of accounts and reports the amount due each dis-
41  trict as transportation aid five days before each payment date. The direc-
42  tor of accounts and reports shall draw warrants on the state treasurer
43  payable to the district treasurer of each district entitled to payment of

10  effort for the school year. If the amount of the district's local effort is
11  greater than the amount of state financial aid determined for the district
12  for the school year, the district shall not be entitled to general state aid.
13  If the amount of the district's local effort is less than the amount of state
14  financial aid determined for the district for the school year, the state board
15  shall subtract the amount of the district's local effort from the amount of
16  state financial aid. The remainder is the amount of general state aid the
17  district is entitled to receive for the current school year.
18    (c)  The provisions of this section shall take effect and be in force
19  from and after July 1, 1992.

21  such audits and investigations as are conducted by the state department
22  of education, the state board shall determine the amount the state board
23  deems necessary to be expended by each district for the provision of a
24  basic education program for pupils enrolled in the district, and the enti-
25  tlement of the district to general state aid shall be an amount equal to the
26  amount so determined by the state board.
