On page 28, after line 32 of the amendment, insert the following:
"Sec. 116 RCW 28A.500.010 and 1999 c 317 s 1 are each amended to
read as follows:
((Commencing with calendar year 2000,)) In addition to a school
district's other general fund allocations, each eligible district shall
be provided local effort assistance funds. The purpose of these funds
is to mitigate the effect that above average property tax rates might
have on the ability of a school district to raise local revenues to
supplement the state's basic program of education. These funds serve
to equalize the property tax rates that individual taxpayers would pay
for such levies and to provide tax relief to taxpayers in high tax rate
school districts. Such funds are ((not)) part of the district's basic
education allocation."
Beginning on page 37, line 3 of the amendment, strike all of sections 301 and 302
Renumber the remaining sections consecutively and correct any internal references accordingly.
