Introduced
by
To prohibit the board of a school district from adopting a new budget if it has failed to keep annual spending below the amount of revenue (plus reserves), unless they pass a resolution allowing them to do so by a two-thirds vote. Instead, the district’s superintendant would be responsible for adopting future budgets until the district has climbed out of its deficit condition. The bill includes anti-retribution language that restricts the board from firing the superintendent until at least two years after that happens.
Referred to the Committee on Financial Liability Reform
