FOR THE DEPARTMENT
OF SOCIAL AND HEALTH SERVICES. (1) ((Appropriations
made in this act to the department of social and health services shall
initially be allotted as required by this act. Subsequent allotment
modifications shall not include transfers of moneys between sections of this
act except as expressly provided in this act, nor shall allotment modifications
permit moneys that are provided solely for a specified purpose to be used for
other than that purpose)) The appropriations in sections 201 through 214
of chapter 24, Laws of 1993 sp. sess., as amended, shall be expended for the
programs and in the amounts listed in those sections. However, after May 1,
1995, unless specifically prohibited by this act, the department may transfer
moneys among programs and among amounts provided under conditions and
limitations after approval by the director of financial management.
Appropriations from the health services account shall not be transferred under
this subsection. The director of financial management shall notify the
appropriate fiscal committees of the senate and house of representatives in
writing prior to approving any deviation from the appropriation levels and any
deviation from conditions and limitations.
(2) The department of social and health services shall not initiate any services that will require expenditure of state general fund moneys unless expressly authorized in this act or other law, or unless the services were provided on March 1, 1993. The department may seek, receive, and spend, under RCW 43.79.260 through 43.79.282, federal moneys not anticipated in this act as long as the federal funding does not require expenditure of state moneys for the program in excess of amounts anticipated in this act. If the department receives unanticipated unrestricted federal moneys, those moneys shall be spent for services authorized in this act or in any other legislation providing appropriation authority, and an equal amount of appropriated state general fund moneys shall lapse. Upon the lapsing of any moneys under this subsection, the office of financial management shall notify the legislative fiscal committees. As used in this subsection, "unrestricted federal moneys" includes block grants and other funds that federal law does not require to be spent on specifically defined projects or matched on a formula basis by state funds.
(3) The department shall identify social service programs administered by the department to be eliminated in fiscal year 1995. The funding for the identified programs will be used to establish a state social services block grant through which funds will be distributed state-wide on a formula basis to local consortiums, which may include public and private entities. By January 1, 1994, the department shall recommend the following to the appropriate legislative committees: (a) The list of identified programs; (b) a grant proposal process; (c) a method of distribution for the block grant funds including an allocation formula; and (d) a percentage of the block grant to be used for local administration. In developing the recommendations, the department shall consult with representatives of local governments and social service providers. The department's general fund‑-state appropriation has been reduced by $1,000,000 to reflect savings which will result in fiscal year 1995 from the elimination of state administration of the identified programs. The department may transfer funds to the division of children and family services from other divisions to the extent that savings are realized in other divisions as a result of these reductions.

(a) The number of certificated staff units determined in subsection (2) of this section; and
(b) The number of classified staff units determined in subsection (3) of this section multiplied by 1.152. This factor is intended to adjust allocations so that, for the purposes of distributing insurance benefits, full time equivalent classified employees may be calculated on the basis of 1440 hours of work per year, with no individual employee counted as more than one full time equivalent.
(6)(a) For nonemployee-related costs associated with each certificated staff unit allocated under subsection (2) (a), (b), and (d) through (h) of this section, there shall be provided a maximum of $7,251 per certificated staff unit in the 1993‑94 school year and a maximum of $7,439 per certificated staff unit in the 1994-95 school year.

Solely for the purposes of this subsection, allocated classroom teachers shall be equal to the number of certificated instructional staff units allocated under subsection (2) of this section, multiplied by the ratio between the number of actual basic education certificated teachers and the number of actual basic education certificated instructional staff reported state‑wide for the 1992-93 school year.
(8) Any school district board of directors may petition the superintendent of public instruction by submission of a resolution adopted in a public meeting to reduce or delay any portion of its basic education allocation for any school year. The superintendent of public instruction shall approve such reduction or delay if it does not impair the district's financial condition. Any delay shall not be for more than two school years.

The expenditure of the funds shall be determined at each school site by the school building staff, parents, and the community where site-based decision-making has been adopted or, where not adopted, by the building staff including itinerant teachers. Expenditures on technology investments by a school site should, to the greatest extent possible, be consistent with the district's technology plan. School districts shall distribute all funds received without deduction for indirect costs. Funds provided by this subsection do not fall within the definition of basic education under Article IX of the state Constitution.
(11) For the purposes of RCW 84.52.0531, the increase per full time equivalent student in state basic education appropriations provided under this act, including appropriations for salary and benefits increases, is 1.0 percent from the 1992‑93 school year to the 1993‑94 school year, and 1.0 percent from the 1993‑94 school year to the 1994‑95 school year.
