The bill would provide charter holders facilities funding equal to the number of students in average daily attendance multiplied by the guaranteed level of state and local funds per student per cent of tax effort under Section 46.032(a) of the Education Code, multiplied by the state average interest and sinking tax rate imposed by school districts for the current year.The bill would take effect on September 1, 2017. Methodology Based on information provided by the Texas Education Agency (TEA) the statewide interest and sinking tax rate is 19.91 cents of tax effort per $100 of eligible property value, the guaranteed yield under Section 46.032(a) of the Education Code is $35 per penny of tax effort per student in average daily attendance. Multiplying these values by the estimated statewide charter school average daily attendance for fiscal years 2018 to 2022 provides an estimated cost of $195.3 million in fiscal year 2018, $215.6 million in fiscal year 2019, and increasing to $248.3 million in fiscal year 2022. Local Government Impact No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
