(b) A school district may apply to the State Allocation Board for funding under this section if it meets all of the following requirements:

(c) The State Allocation Board shall establish standards for the amount of funding to be made available for each project under this section. The funding standards may be expressed as per-square-foot cost limits or per-pupil cost limits or both.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this chapter, project costs may exceed the board's standards set forth in subdivision (c) if the excess is paid completely by local or joint-use partnership sources.
