3 visions of section 2, and amendments thereto, do not apply in the current

5 crease in the amount budgeted by the district in its local option budget
6 as authorized by a resolution adopted under the provisions of subsection
7 (b) causes the actual amount per pupil budgeted by the district in the
8 preceding school year as determined for the district under provision (1)
9 of subsection (a) of section 2, and amendments thereto, to equal or exceed

26 the actual amount per pupil budgeted by the district to be less than the
27 average amount per pupil of general fund budgets and local option budg-
28 ets computed by the state board under whichever of the provisions (7)
29 through (10) of subsection (a) of section 2, and amendments thereto, is

31 trict prescribed percentage means a percentage that is equal to the per-
32 centage of the amount of state financial aid the district was authorized to
33 budget in the preceding school year less the percentage of increase that
34 was authorized by the resolution plus a percentage which shall be com-
35 puted for the district by the state board in accordance with the provisions
36 of section 2, and amendments thereto, except that, in making the deter-
37 mination of the actual amount per pupil budgeted by the district in the
38 preceding school year, the state board shall exclude the percentage of
39 increase that was authorized by the resolution.
40 (2) The adoption of a local option budget under authority of this sub-
41 section shall require a majority vote of the members of the board and shall
42 require no other procedure, authorization or approval.

10 a budget would be in the best interests of the district.
11 (2) No district may adopt increase a local option budget under au-
12 thority of this subsection until a resolution authorizing adoption of such

25 New Sec. 2. (a) In each school year, commencing with the 1997-98
26 school year, the state board shall compute a district prescribed percentage
27 for the purpose of determining the amount of a local option budget the
28 board of a district to which the provisions of this section apply may adopt
29 for the school year. The district prescribed percentage for each district
30 to which the provisions of this section apply shall be computed by the

36 year of general fund budgets and local option budgets of districts with
37 75-125 enrollment in such school year;

39 year of general fund budgets and local option budgets of districts with
40 200-399 enrollment in such school year;
41 (4) compute the average amount per pupil for the preceding school
42 year of general fund budgets and local option budgets of districts with
43 1,800 or over enrollment in such school year;

1 (5) compute an average amount per pupil for the preceding school
2 year of general fund budgets and local option budgets of districts with
3 100-299.9 enrollment in such school year by preparing a schedule based
4 upon an accepted mathematical formula and deriving an amount for each
5 such district from a linear transition between the average amount per
6 pupil computed under (2) and the average amount per pupil computed
7 under (3);
8 (6) compute an average amount per pupil for the preceding school
9 year of general fund budgets and local option budgets of districts with
10 300-1,799.9 enrollment in such school year by preparing a schedule based
11 upon an accepted mathematical formula and deriving an amount for each
12 such district from a linear transition between the average amount per
13 pupil computed under (3) and the average amount per pupil computed
14 under (4);
15 (7) for districts with 0-99.9 enrollment, compare the amount deter-
16 mined for the district under (1) to the average amount computed under
17 (2). If the amount determined under (1) is equal to or greater than the
18 average amount computed under (2), the provisions of this section do not
19 apply to the district. If the amount determined under (1) is less than the
20 average amount computed under (2), subtract the amount determined
21 under (1) from the amount computed under (2), multiply the remainder
22 by enrollment of the district in the preceding school year, and divide the
23 product by the amount of state financial aid determined for the district
24 in the preceding school year. The quotient is the district prescribed per-
25 centage of the district;
26 (8) for districts with 100-299.9 enrollment, compare the amount de-
27 termined for the district under (1) to the average amount computed under
28 (5). If the amount determined under (1) is equal to or greater than the
29 average amount computed under (5), the provisions of this section do not
30 apply to the district. If the amount determined under (1) is less than the
31 average amount computed under (5), subtract the amount determined
32 under (1) from the amount computed under (5), multiply the remainder
33 by enrollment of the district in the preceding school year, and divide the
34 product by the amount of state financial aid determined for the district
35 in the preceding school year. The quotient is the district prescribed per-
36 centage of the district;
37 (9) for districts with 300-1,799.9 enrollment, compare the amount
38 determined for the district under (1) to the average amount computed
39 under (6). If the amount determined under (1) is equal to or greater than
40 the average amount computed under (6), the provisions of this section
41 do not apply to the district. If the amount determined under (1) is less
42 than the average amount computed under (6), subtract the amount de-
43 termined under (1) from the amount computed under (6), multiply the

1 remainder by enrollment of the district in the preceding school year, and
2 divide the product by the amount of state financial aid determined for
3 the district in the preceding school year. The quotient is the district pre-
4 scribed percentage of the district;
5 (10) for districts with 1,800 or over enrollment, compare the amount
6 determined for the district under (1) to the average amount computed
7 under (4). If the amount determined under (1) is equal to or greater than
8 the average amount computed under (4), the provisions of this section
9 do not apply to the district. If the amount determined under (1) is less
10 than the average amount computed under (4), subtract the amount de-
11 termined under (1) from the amount computed under (4), multiply the
12 remainder by enrollment of the district in the preceding school year, and
13 divide the product by the amount of state financial aid determined for
14 the district in the preceding school year. The quotient is the district pre-
15 scribed percentage of the district.
16 (b) The provisions of this section apply to any district that budgeted
17 an amount per pupil in the preceding school year, as determined under
18 provision (1) of subsection (a), that was less than the average amount per
19 pupil of general fund budgets and local option budgets computed by the
20 state board under whichever of the provisions (7) through (10) of sub-
21 section (a) is applicable to the districts enrollment group.
22 [Sec. 3. K.S.A. 1996 Supp. 72-6410, as amended by section 2
23 of 1997 House Bill No. 2031, is hereby amended to read as follows:
24 72-6410. (a) ``State financial aid'' means an amount equal to the
25 product obtained by multiplying base state aid per pupil by the
26 adjusted enrollment of a district.

28 cial aid per pupil. Subject to the other provisions of this subsection,
29 the amount of base state aid per pupil is $3,670. The amount of

31 any reduction under K.S.A. 1996 Supp. 75-6704, and amendments
32 thereto, in the amount of the appropriation from the state general
33 fund for general state aid. If the amount of appropriations for gen-
34 eral state aid is insufficient to pay in full the amount each district
35 is entitled to receive for any school year, the amount of base state
36 aid per pupil for such school year is subject to reduction commen-
37 surate with the amount of the insufficiency.
38 [(c) ``Local effort'' means the sum of an amount equal to the
39 proceeds from the tax levied under authority of K.S.A. 72-6431,
40 and amendments thereto, and an amount equal to any unexpended
41 and unencumbered balance remaining in the general fund of the
42 district, except amounts received by the district and authorized to
43 be expended for the purposes specified in K.S.A. 72-6430, and
H Sub. for SB 36--Am. by HCW

1 amendments thereto, and an amount equal to any unexpended and
2 unencumbered balances remaining in the program weighted funds
3 of the district, except any amount in the vocational education fund
4 of the district if the district is operating an area vocational school,
5 and an amount equal to any remaining proceeds from taxes levied
6 under authority of K.S.A. 72-7056 and 72-7072, and amendments
7 thereto, prior to the repeal of such statutory sections, and an
8 amount equal to the amount deposited in the general fund in the
9 current school year from amounts received in such year by the
10 district under the provisions of subsection (a) of K.S.A. 72-1046a,
11 and amendments thereto, and an amount equal to the amount de-
12 posited in the general fund in the current school year from
13 amounts received in such year by the district pursuant to contracts
14 made and entered into under authority of K.S.A. 72-6757, and
15 amendments thereto, and an amount equal to the amount credited
16 to the general fund in the current school year from amounts dis-
17 tributed in such year to the district under the provisions of articles
18 17 and 34 of chapter 12 of Kansas Statutes Annotated and under
19 the provisions of articles 42 and 51 of chapter 79 of Kansas Statutes
20 Annotated, and an amount equal to 75% of the federal impact aid
21 of a district.
22 [(d) ``Federal impact aid'' means an amount equal to the fed-
23 erally qualified percentage of the amount of moneys a district re-
24 ceives in the current school year under the provisions of title I of
25 public law 874 and congressional appropriations therefor, exclud-
26 ing amounts received for assistance in cases of major disaster and
27 amounts received under the low-rent housing program. The
28 amount of federal impact aid defined herein as an amount equal
29 to the federally qualified percentage of the amount of moneys pro-
30 vided for the district under title I of public law 874 shall be deter-
31 mined by the state board in accordance with terms and conditions
32 imposed under the provisions of the public law and rules and reg-
33 ulations thereunder.]
