INTRODUCED BY   Assembly Member Brownley

                        FEBRUARY 19, 2010

   An act to amend Section 17074.26 of the Education Code, relating
to school facilities.


	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 2560, as introduced, Brownley. School facilities: construction:
modernization.
   Existing law, the Leroy F. Greene School Facilities Act of 1998,
requires the State Allocation Board to allocate to applicant school
districts, prescribed per-unhoused-pupil state funding for
construction and modernization of school facilities, including
hardship funding, and supplemental funding for site development and
acquisition. Existing law requires the board to adopt regulations to
adjust the per-pupil amounts for modernization projects for school
buildings that are 50 years old or older based on the higher costs
associated with modernizing older buildings.
   This bill would correct an erroneous cross-reference in the
provision requiring the board to adopt regulations adjusting the
grant amounts for older buildings.
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: no.
State-mandated local program: no.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  SECTION 1.  Section 17074.26 of the Education Code is amended to
read:
   17074.26.  The board shall adopt regulations to adjust the
per-pupil amounts set forth in Section  17074.14 
 17074.10  for modernization projects for school buildings
that are 50 years old or older based upon the higher costs associated
with modernizing older buildings.
