          SUMMARY:


          This bill repeals provisions of the Education Code related to  
          approximately 30 categorical programs that are no longer  
          operational due to the enactment of the Local Control Funding  
          Formula (LCFF) and includes several other technical code fixes.

                                                                    Page  2







          FISCAL EFFECT:


          No state fiscal impact.


          COMMENTS:


          1)Purpose. The LCFF, enacted as part of the 2013-14 Budget Act,  
            replaced revenue limit funding and funding for most  
            categorical programs with a single funding formula.  As a  
            result, most statutory provisions related to these categorical  
            programs are no longer operative.  This bill repeals many of  
            those provisions, which were rendered obsolete by the LCFF,  
            but which remain in the code.  


          2)Related legislation.SB 78 (Senate Budget and Fiscal Review),  
            Chapter 19, Statutes of 2015 made various changes to the LCFF  
            that were necessary to implement the Budget Act of 2015.


          3)Prior legislation. SB 971 (Huff), Chapter 923, Statutes of  
            2014, repealed or amended several provisions of the Education  
            Code that were rendered obsolete by the LCFF.
