THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN ENACT: 1 Sec. 20. (1) For 1998-99, the basic foundation allowance is 2 $5,462.00 per membership pupil. For 1999-2000, the basic founda- 3 tion allowance is $5,696.00 per membership pupil. For 2000-2001, 4 the basic foundation allowance is $5,866.00 per membership 5 pupil. 6 (2) From the appropriation in section 11, there is allocated 7 for 1998-99 an amount not to exceed $8,034,100,000.00, for 8 1999-2000 an amount not to exceed $8,516,932,000.00, and for 9 2000-2001 an amount not to exceed $8,906,496,200.00 to guarantee 10 each district a foundation allowance per membership pupil other 00756'99 ** TAV 2 1 than special education pupils and to make payments under this 2 section to public school academies and university schools for 3 membership pupils other than special education pupils. The 4 amount of each district's foundation allowance shall be calcu- 5 lated as provided in this section, using a basic foundation 6 allowance in the amount specified in subsection (1). If the max- 7 imum amount allocated under this section is not sufficient to 8 fully fund payments under this section, and before any proration 9 required under section 11, the amount of the payment to each dis- 10 trict, university school, and public school academy shall be pro- 11 rated by reducing by an equal percentage the total payment under 12 this section to each district, university school, and public 13 school academy. However, if the department determines that pro- 14 ration will be required under this section, the superintendent of 15 public instruction shall notify the state budget director, and 16 the state budget director shall notify the legislature at least 17 30 calendar days or 6 legislative session days, whichever is 18 more, before the department reduces any payments under this sec- 19 tion because of the proration. During the 30 calendar day or 6 20 legislative session day period after that notification by the 21 state budget director, the department shall not reduce any pay- 22 ments under this section because of proration. The legislature 23 may prevent proration under this section from occurring by, 24 within the 30 calendar day or 6 legislative session day period 25 after that notification by the director, enacting legislation 26 appropriating additional funds from the general fund, 27 countercyclical budget and economic stabilization fund, state 00756'99 ** 3 1 school aid fund balance, or another source to ensure full 2 foundation allowance funding for each district, university 3 school, and public school academy. 4 (3) Except as otherwise provided in this section, the amount 5 of a district's foundation allowance shall be calculated as fol- 6 lows, using in all calculations the total amount of the 7 district's foundation allowance as calculated before any 8 proration: 9 (a) For a district that in the immediately preceding state 10 fiscal year had a foundation allowance at least equal to the sum 11 of $4,200.00 plus the total dollar amount of all adjustments made 12 from 1994-95 to the immediately preceding state fiscal year in 13 the lowest foundation allowance among all districts, but less 14 than the basic foundation allowance in the immediately preceding 15 state fiscal year, the district shall receive a foundation allow- 16 ance in an amount equal to the sum of the district's foundation 17 allowance for the immediately preceding state fiscal year plus 18 the difference between twice the dollar amount of the adjustment 19 from the immediately preceding state fiscal year to the current 20 state fiscal year made in the basic foundation allowance and 21 [(the dollar amount of the adjustment from the immediately pre- 22 ceding state fiscal year to the current state fiscal year made in 23 the basic foundation allowance minus $50.00) times (the differ- 24 ence between the district's foundation allowance for the immedi- 25 ately preceding state fiscal year and the sum of $4,200.00 plus 26 the total dollar amount of all adjustments made from 1994-95 to 27 the immediately preceding state fiscal year in the lowest 00756'99 ** 4 1 foundation allowance among all districts) divided by the 2 difference between the basic foundation allowance for the current 3 state fiscal year and the sum of $4,200.00 plus the total dollar 4 amount of all adjustments made from 1994-95 to the immediately 5 preceding state fiscal year in the lowest foundation allowance 6 among all districts]. However, the foundation allowance for a 7 district that had less than the basic foundation allowance in the 8 immediately preceding state fiscal year shall not exceed the 9 basic foundation allowance for the current state fiscal year. 10 (b) Except as otherwise provided in subdivision (c) or (d), 11 for a district that in the immediately preceding state fiscal 12 year had a foundation allowance in an amount at least equal to 13 the amount of the basic foundation allowance for the immediately 14 preceding state fiscal year, the district shall receive a founda- 15 tion allowance in an amount equal to the sum of the district's 16 foundation allowance for the immediately preceding state fiscal 17 year plus the dollar amount of the adjustment from the immedi- 18 ately preceding state fiscal year to the current state fiscal 19 year in the basic foundation allowance. 20 (c) For 1999-2000 only, for a district that in the immedi- 21 ately preceding state fiscal year had a foundation allowance 22 greater than $6,962.00 and less than $12,000.00, the district 23 shall receive a foundation allowance in an amount equal to the 24 sum of the district's foundation allowance for the immediately 25 preceding state fiscal year plus 1.6% of the district's founda- 26 tion allowance for the immediately preceding state fiscal year. 00756'99 ** 5 1 (d) For 2000-2001 only, for a district that in the 2 immediately preceding state fiscal year had a foundation 3 allowance greater than $7,196.00 and less than $12,234.00, the 4 district shall receive a foundation allowance in an amount equal 5 to the sum of the district's foundation allowance for the immedi- 6 ately preceding state fiscal year plus 1.6% of the district's 7 foundation allowance for the immediately preceding state fiscal 8 year. 9 (e) For 1998-99, each district's foundation allowance shall 10 be at least $5,170.00. 11 (4) To ensure that a district receives the district's foun- 12 dation allowance, there is allocated to each district a state 13 portion of the district's foundation allowance in an amount cal- 14 culated under this subsection. Except as otherwise provided in 15 this subsection, the state portion of a district's foundation 16 allowance is an amount equal to the district's foundation allow- 17 ance or $6,500.00, whichever is less, minus the difference 18 between the product of the taxable value per membership pupil of 19 all property in the district that is not a homestead or qualified 20 agricultural property times the lesser of 18 mills or the number 21 of mills of school operating taxes levied by the district in 22 1993-94 and the quotient of the ad valorem property tax revenue 23 of the district captured under 1975 PA 197, MCL 125.1651 to 24 125.1681, the tax increment finance authority act, 1980 PA 450, 25 MCL 125.1801 to 125.1830, the local development financing act, 26 1986 PA 281, MCL 125.2151 to 125.2174, or the Brownfield 27 redevelopment financing act, 1996 PA 381, MCL 125.2651 to 00756'99 ** 6 1 125.2672, divided by the district's membership excluding special 2 education pupils. For 1999-2000 only, for a district described 3 in subsection (3)(c), the state portion of the district's founda- 4 tion allowance is an amount equal to $6,962.00 plus 1.6% of the 5 district's foundation allowance for the immediately preceding 6 state fiscal year minus the difference between the product of the 7 taxable value per membership pupil of all property in the dis- 8 trict that is not a homestead or qualified agricultural property 9 times the lesser of 18 mills or the number of mills of school 10 operating taxes levied by the district in 1993-94 and the quo- 11 tient of the ad valorem property tax revenue of the district cap- 12 tured under 1975 PA 197, MCL 125.1651 to 125.1681, the tax incre- 13 ment finance authority act, 1980 PA 450, MCL 125.1801 to 14 125.1830, the local development financing act, 1986 PA 281, 15 MCL 125.2151 to 125.2174, or the Brownfield redevelopment financ- 16 ing act, 1996 PA 381, MCL 125.2651 to 125.2672, divided by the 17 district's membership excluding special education pupils. For 18 2000-2001 only, for a district described in subsection (3)(d), 19 the state portion of the district's foundation allowance is an 20 amount equal to $7,196.00 plus 1.6% of the district's foundation 21 allowance for the immediately preceding state fiscal year minus 22 the difference between the product of the taxable value per mem- 23 bership pupil of all property in the district that is not a home- 24 stead or qualified agricultural property times the lesser of 18 25 mills or the number of mills of school operating taxes levied by 26 the district in 1993-94 and the quotient of the ad valorem 27 property tax revenue of the district captured under 1975 PA 197, 00756'99 ** 7 1 MCL 125.1651 to 125.1681, the tax increment finance authority 2 act, 1980 PA 450, MCL 125.1801 to 125.1830, the local development 3 financing act, 1986 PA 281, MCL 125.2151 to 125.2174, or the 4 Brownfield redevelopment financing act, 1996 PA 381, MCL 125.2651 5 to 125.2672, divided by the district's membership excluding spe- 6 cial education pupils. For a district that has a millage reduc- 7 tion required under section 31 of article IX of the state consti- 8 tution of 1963, the state portion of the district's foundation 9 allowance shall be calculated as if that reduction did not 10 occur. For each fiscal year after 1994-95, the $6,500.00 amount 11 prescribed in this subsection shall be adjusted each year by an 12 amount equal to the dollar amount of the difference between the 13 basic foundation allowance for the current state fiscal year and 14 $5,000.00. 15 (5) The allocation under this section for a pupil shall be 16 based on the foundation allowance of the pupil's district of 17 residence. However, for a pupil enrolled pursuant to section 105 18 in a district other than the pupil's district of residence, the 19 allocation under this section shall be based on the lesser of the 20 foundation allowance of the pupil's district of residence or the 21 foundation allowance of the educating district. For a pupil in 22 membership in a K-5, K-6, or K-8 district who is enrolled in 23 another district in a grade not offered by the pupil's district 24 of residence, the allocation under this section shall be based on 25 the foundation allowance of the educating district if the educat- 26 ing district's foundation allowance is greater than the 27 foundation allowance of the pupil's district of residence. 00756'99 ** 8 1 (6) Subject to subsection (7) and except as otherwise 2 provided in this subsection, for pupils in membership, other than 3 special education pupils, in a public school academy or a univer- 4 sity school, there is allocated under this section each fiscal 5 year for 1998-99, for 1999-2000, and for 2000-2001 to the autho- 6 rizing body that is the fiscal agent for the public school acad- 7 emy for forwarding to the public school academy, or to the board 8 of the public university operating the university school, an 9 amount per membership pupil other than special education pupils 10 in the public school academy or university school equal to the 11 sum of the local school operating revenue per membership pupil 12 other than special education pupils for the district in which the 13 public school academy or university school is located and the 14 state portion of that district's foundation allowance, or the sum 15 of the basic foundation allowance under subsection (1) plus 16 $500.00, whichever is less. Notwithstanding section 101(2), for 17 a public school academy that begins operations in 1998-99, 18 1999-2000, or 2000-2001, as applicable, after the pupil member- 19 ship count day, the amount per membership pupil calculated under 20 this subsection shall be adjusted by multiplying that amount per 21 membership pupil by the number of hours of pupil instruction pro- 22 vided by the public school academy after it begins operations, as 23 determined by the department, divided by the minimum number of 24 hours of pupil instruction required under section 1284 of the 25 revised school code, MCL 380.1284. The result of this calcula- 26 tion shall not exceed the amount per membership pupil otherwise 27 calculated under this subsection. 00756'99 ** 9 1 (7) If more than 25% of the pupils residing within a 2 district are in membership in 1 or more public school academies 3 located in the district, then the amount per membership pupil 4 allocated under this section to the authorizing body that is the 5 fiscal agent for a public school academy located in the district 6 for forwarding to the public school academy shall be reduced by 7 an amount equal to the difference between the product of the tax- 8 able value per membership pupil of all property in the district 9 that is not a homestead or qualified agricultural property times 10 the lesser of 18 mills or the number of mills of school operating 11 taxes levied by the district in 1993-94 and the quotient of the 12 ad valorem property tax revenue of the district captured under 13 1975 PA 197, MCL 125.1651 to 125.1681, the tax increment finance 14 authority act, 1980 PA 450, MCL 125.1801 to 125.1830, the local 15 development financing act, 1986 PA 281, MCL 125.2151 to 125.2174, 16 or the Brownfield redevelopment financing act, 1996 PA 381, 17 MCL 125.2651 to 125.2672, divided by the district's membership 18 excluding special education pupils, in the school fiscal year 19 ending in the current state fiscal year, calculated as if the 20 resident pupils in membership in 1 or more public school acade- 21 mies located in the district were in membership in the district. 22 In order to receive state school aid under this act, a district 23 described in this subsection shall pay to the authorizing body 24 that is the fiscal agent for a public school academy located in 25 the district for forwarding to the public school academy an 26 amount equal to that local school operating revenue per 27 membership pupil for each resident pupil in membership other than 00756'99 ** 10 1 special education pupils in the public school academy, as 2 determined by the department. 3 (8) If a district does not receive a payment under subsec- 4 tion (9); if the number of mills the district may levy on a home- 5 stead and qualified agricultural property under section 1211(1) 6 of the revised school code, MCL 380.1211, is 0.5 mills or less; 7 and if the district elects not to levy those mills, the district 8 instead shall receive a separate supplemental payment under this 9 subsection in an amount equal to the amount the district would 10 have received had it levied those mills, as determined by the 11 department of treasury. A district shall not receive a separate 12 supplemental payment under this subsection for a fiscal year 13 unless in the calendar year ending in the fiscal year the dis- 14 trict levies 18 mills or the number of mills of school operating 15 taxes levied by the district in 1993, whichever is less, on prop- 16 erty that is not a homestead or qualified agricultural property. 17 (9) For a district that had combined state and local revenue 18 per membership pupil in the 1993-94 state fiscal year of more 19 than $6,500.00 and that had fewer than 350 pupils in membership, 20 if the district elects not to reduce the number of mills from 21 which a homestead and qualified agricultural property are exempt 22 and not to levy school operating taxes on a homestead and quali- 23 fied agricultural property as provided in section 1211(1) of the 24 revised school code, MCL 380.1211, and not to levy school operat- 25 ing taxes on all property as provided in section 1211(2) of the 26 revised school code, MCL 380.1211, there is allocated under this 27 subsection for 1994-95 and each succeeding fiscal year a separate 00756'99 ** 11 1 supplemental payment in an amount equal to the amount the 2 district would have received per membership pupil had it levied 3 school operating taxes on a homestead and qualified agricultural 4 property at the rate authorized for the district under 5 section 1211(1) of the revised school code, MCL 380.1211, and 6 levied school operating taxes on all property at the rate autho- 7 rized for the district under section 1211(2) of the revised 8 school code, MCL 380.1211, as determined by the department of 9 treasury. A district shall not receive a separate supplemental 10 payment under this subsection for a fiscal year unless in the 11 calendar year ending in the fiscal year the district levies 18 12 mills or the number of mills of school operating taxes levied by 13 the district in 1993, whichever is less, on property that is not 14 a homestead or qualified agricultural property. If in the calen- 15 dar year ending in the fiscal year a district does not levy 18 16 mills or the number of mills of school operating taxes levied by 17 the district in 1993, whichever is less, on property that is not 18 a homestead or qualified agricultural property, the payment under 19 this subsection will be reduced by the same percentage as the 20 millage actually levied compares to the 18 mills or the number of 21 mills levied in 1993, whichever is less. 22 (10) A district or public school academy may use any funds 23 allocated under this section in conjunction with any federal 24 funds for which the district or public school academy otherwise 25 would be eligible. 26 (11) For a district that is formed or reconfigured after 27 June 1, 1994 by consolidation of 2 or more districts or by 00756'99 ** 12 1 annexation, the resulting district's foundation allowance under 2 this section beginning after the effective date of the consolida- 3 tion or annexation shall be the average of the foundation allow- 4 ances of each of the original or affected districts, calculated 5 as provided in this section, weighted as to the percentage of 6 pupils in total membership in the resulting district who reside 7 in the geographic area of each of the original districts. If an 8 affected district's foundation allowance is less than the basic 9 foundation allowance, the amount of that district's foundation 10 allowance shall be considered for the purpose of calculations 11 under this subsection to be equal to the amount of the basic 12 foundation allowance. 13 (12) Each fraction used in making calculations under this 14 section shall be rounded to the fourth decimal place and the 15 dollar amount of an increase in the basic foundation allowance 16 shall be rounded to the nearest whole dollar. 17 (13) State payments related to payment of the foundation 18 allowance for a special education pupil are not funded under this 19 section but are instead funded under section 51a. 20 (14) To assist the legislature in determining the basic 21 foundation allowance for the subsequent state fiscal year, each 22 revenue estimating conference conducted under section 367b of the 23 management and budget act, 1984 PA 431, MCL 18.1367b, shall cal- 24 culate a pupil membership factor, a revenue adjustment factor, 25 and an index as follows: 26 (a) The pupil membership factor shall be computed by 27 dividing the estimated membership in the school year ending in 00756'99 ** 13 1 the current state fiscal year, excluding intermediate district 2 membership, by the estimated membership for the school year 3 ending in the subsequent state fiscal year, excluding intermedi- 4 ate district membership. If a consensus membership factor is not 5 determined at the revenue estimating conference, the principals 6 of the revenue estimating conference shall report their estimates 7 to the house and senate subcommittees responsible for school aid 8 appropriations not later than 7 days after the conclusion of the 9 revenue conference. 10 (b) The revenue adjustment factor shall be computed by 11 dividing the sum of the estimated total state school aid fund 12 revenue for the subsequent state fiscal year plus the estimated 13 total state school aid fund revenue for the current state fiscal 14 year, adjusted for any change in the rate or base of a tax the 15 proceeds of which are deposited in that fund and excluding money 16 transferred into that fund from the countercyclical budget and 17 economic stabilization fund under section 353e of the management 18 and budget act, 1984 PA 431, MCL 18.1353e, by the sum of the 19 estimated total school aid fund revenue for the current state 20 fiscal year plus the estimated total state school aid fund reve- 21 nue for the immediately preceding state fiscal year, adjusted for 22 any change in the rate or base of a tax the proceeds of which are 23 deposited in that fund. If a consensus revenue factor is not 24 determined at the revenue estimating conference, the principals 25 of the revenue estimating conference shall report their estimates 26 to the house and senate subcommittees responsible for school aid 00756'99 ** 14 1 appropriations not later than 7 days after the conclusion of the 2 revenue conference. 3 (c) The index shall be calculated by multiplying the pupil 4 membership factor by the revenue adjustment factor. However, for 5 1998-99 only, the index shall be 1.00. If a consensus index is 6 not determined at the revenue estimating conference, the princi- 7 pals of the revenue estimating conference shall report their 8 estimates to the house and senate subcommittees responsible for 9 school aid appropriations not later than 7 days after the conclu- 10 sion of the revenue conference. 11 (15) If the principals at the revenue estimating conference 12 reach a consensus on the index described in subsection (14)(c), 13 the basic foundation allowance for the subsequent state fiscal 14 year shall be at least the amount of that consensus index multi- 15 plied by the basic foundation allowance specified in subsection 16 (1). 17 (16) If at the January revenue estimating conference it is 18 estimated that pupil membership, excluding intermediate district 19 membership, for the subsequent state fiscal year will be greater 20 than 101% of the pupil membership, excluding intermediate dis- 21 trict membership, for the current state fiscal year, then it is 22 the intent of the legislature that the executive budget proposal 23 for the school aid budget for the subsequent state fiscal year 24 include a general fund/general purpose allocation sufficient to 25 support the membership in excess of 101% of the current year 26 pupil membership. 00756'99 ** 15 1 (17) Beginning in 1999-2000, for a district that had 2 combined state and local revenue per membership pupil in the 3 1993-94 state fiscal year of more than $6,500.00, that had fewer 4 than 7 pupils in membership in the 1993-94 state fiscal year, 5 that has at least 1 pupil in membership educated in the district 6 in the current state fiscal year, and that levies the number of 7 mills of school operating taxes authorized for the district under 8 section 1211 of the revised school code, MCL 380.1211, the dis- 9 trict shall be allocated a minimum amount of combined state and 10 local revenue as provided under this subsection. This minimum 11 amount of combined state and local revenue for 1999-2000 shall be 12 $67,000.00 plus the district's additional expenses to educate 13 pupils in grades 9 to 12 educated in other districts as deter- 14 mined and allowed by the department. Beginning in 2000-2001, the 15 amount of the minimum amount of combined state and local revenue 16 under this subsection, before adding the additional expenses, 17 shall increase each fiscal year by the same percentage increase 18 as the percentage increase in the basic foundation allowance from 19 the immediately preceding fiscal year to the current fiscal 20 year.
