HB 1043 - DIGEST

Provides that a school district may choose to comply with a requirement of any nature imposed by the state, or any instrumentality of the state, if the total state moneys provided to the school district that may be expended or are required to be expended by the school district to meet the requirement are not sufficient to pay for all the costs of meeting the requirement.

Declares that, if these state moneys are not sufficient, the requirement shall lose its mandatory nature and shall become a recommendation or option for the school district and a penalty may not be imposed on the school district for failing to comply with the requirement.
