as amended, Allen. begin deleteInstructional materials. end deletebegin insertSchool finance: Nonrecurring Special Revenue Fund.end insert
Existing law requires a school district that receives bequests or gifts of money not required for the immediate necessities of the district to place that money in a district special fund in the county treasury designated as the Foundation Fund and authorizes the district to invest that money.
end insertbegin insertExisting federal law, The Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012, (Public Law 112-96) authorizes the Federal Communication Commission (FCC) to conduct an auction of spectrum in the Ultra High Frequency (UHF) band used for television broadcasting, to accept bids for use of recaptured spectrum for wireless broadband communications, and to offer cash payments as an incentive to television broadcasting licensees to participate in the auction in any markets in which the FCC determines that it cannot otherwise clear enough UHF spectrum for wireless broadband purposes.
end insertbegin insertThis bill would require a school district to place proceeds received, if any, from transactions in connection with selling spectrum at this auction that are not required for the immediate necessities of the district into a fund designated as the Nonrecurring Special Revenue Fund, subject to the same requirements and restrictions as bequests or gifts of surplus money placed in a Foundation Fund. The bill would also restrict the purposes for which these moneys may be used, as provided. To the extent this bill would impose additional duties on the county treasurer, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program.
end insertbegin insertThe California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.
end insertbegin insertThis bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to these statutory provisions.
end insertExisting law requires the State Board of Education to consider the adoption of a revised curriculum framework and evaluation criteria for instructional materials in science, as provided.
