Current as of January 01, 2025 | Updated by Findlaw Staff

(1) The school district adopted a local option budget for school year 2014-2015 in an amount equal to at least 25% of the amount of the state financial aid determined for the school district in such school year pursuant to K.S.A. 72-6433, prior to its repeal;

(2) the contractual bond obligations incurred by the school district were approved by the electors of the school district at an election held on or before July 1, 2015; and

(3)(A) the school district commences operation of a new school facility and the construction of such facility was financed primarily with such contractual bond obligations; or

(B) the school district commences operation of a new school facility and the construction of such facility was financed primarily with federal funds and such facility is located on a military reservation.

(c) The school facilities weighting may be assigned to the enrollment of the school district only in the school year in which operation of a new school facility is commenced and in the next succeeding school year.
