Section 392-343-056 - Funding during the period of a priority approval process order by the superintendent of public instruction
Current through Register Vol. 24-06, March 15, 2024
During the period of a priority approval process imposed by order of the superintendent of public instruction school construction projects shall receive final approval pursuant to WAC 392-344-107 as follows:
(1) On or after July 1 following the superintendent of public instruction order for the implementation of a priority approval process the superintendent of public instruction shall rank all projects for which final approval has been requested pursuant to WAC 392-344-107 as per the applicable priority list in WAC 392-343-500. Only school construction projects with the superintendent of public instruction approval under WAC 392-341-045 and secured capital funds to provide the local share required for state funding assistance by January 31 of the previous state fiscal year and eligible for final approval pursuant to WAC 392-344-107 by June 30 of the previous state fiscal year shall be placed on the priority list.
(2) Each fiscal year the superintendent of public instruction shall give final approval to school construction projects on the priority list pursuant to WAC 392-344-107 based on the level and conditions of legislative appropriations. For the purpose of this subsection the term "estimated revenue available for the state fiscal year" shall mean the estimated revenue from the common school construction fund for the current state fiscal year and the subsequent state fiscal year, the result of which is divided by two.
(3) In the event the superintendent of public instruction does not rescind the order for the implementation of a priority approval process by the close of the state fiscal year, school construction projects remaining on the priority list without final approval and, therefore, without secured funding status pursuant to WAC 392-344-107 shall be combined with new school construction projects that have secured capital funds to provide the local share required for state funding assistance by January 31 of the state fiscal year and that are eligible, pursuant to WAC 392-344-107, for final approval by the close of the state fiscal year, and a new priority list shall be established on or after July 1 of the next state fiscal year and such remaining and new school construction projects shall be eligible for final approval pursuant to the provisions of subsections (1) and (2) of this section.
