INTRODUCED BY   Assembly Member Brownley

                        FEBRUARY 22, 2012

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


	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 1919, as introduced, Brownley. School facilities: modernization
apportionments.
   Existing law authorizes a school district to apply for a
modernization apportionment which may be used for an improvement to
extend the useful life of, or to enhance the physical environment of,
the school. Existing law requires the State Allocation Board to
determine the total funding eligibility of a school district for
modernization funding by multiplying specified per-pupil amounts by
the number of pupils housed in school buildings that meet specified
requirements and requires the board to adopt regulations adjusting
the specified per-pupil amounts for modernization projects for school
buildings that are 50 years old or older.
   This bill would correct a cross-reference for purposes of that
latter provision.
   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.
