11	11	AN ACT to amend 121.91 (7); and to create 121.91 (4) (m) of the statutes;
12	12	relating to: a school district revenue limit adjustment for the cost of employing
13	13	school nurses.
14	14	Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
15	15	Current law generally limits the total amount of revenue per pupil that a school
16	16	district may receive from general school aids and property taxes in a school year to
17	17	the amount of revenue allowed per pupil in the previous school year plus a per pupil
18	18	increase, if any, as provided by law. However, current law also includes several
19	19	adjustments to the general revenue limit. For example, if a school district increases
20	20	the services that it provides by adding responsibility for providing a service
21	21	transferred to it from another governmental unit, the school district's revenue limit
22	22	is increased by the cost of that service.
23	23	This bill creates a school district revenue limit adjustment for the costs of
24	24	employing school nurses. Under the bill, if a school board adopts a resolution, the
25	25	school district's revenue limit is increased by the amount the school district spent
26	26	during the second previous school year on salaries and benefits for school nurses.
27	27	For further information see the local fiscal estimate, which will be printed as
28	28	an appendix to this bill.
