Currentness
This Regulation shall only apply to Approved Applications for New Construction Grants funded with the proceeds of state bonds approved by the voters prior to January 1, 2002.
(a) The OPSC shall report to the Board on a monthly basis the amount of funds available for New Construction Grants and Modernization Grants and the estimated amount of Approved Applications for New Construction Grants and Modernization Grants not yet apportioned. The Board shall implement a priority point mechanism described in (b) for New Construction Grants requests when either of the following occur:
(1) The amount of Approved Applications for New Construction Grants and Modernization Grants not yet apportioned exceed the funds available for New Construction Grants and Modernization Grants.
(2) The funds available for New Construction Grants are $300 million or less.
(b) Once either (1) or (2) in (a) occurs, the Board shall approve and apportion the funds available for New Construction Grants requests based on the following priority point mechanism:
(1) From the funds available for New Construction Grants, the Board shall establish a final allotment equal to the lesser of $450 million or the balance of the funds available for New Construction Grants, to be apportioned in accordance with (2) below. After deducting the final allotment, the Board shall divide the remaining funds into seven equal allotments, to be apportioned on a quarterly basis, commencing with the last quarter of calendar year 2000 and ending the second quarter of calendar year 2002. Quarterly apportionments are subject to the following:
(A) The Board shall apportion Approved Applications for New Construction Grants requests received prior to the beginning of the quarter that are Ready for Apportionment, all New Construction Grants requests that were included on an Unfunded List and New Construction Grants requests that meet the criteria of subsection (d), until the funds available for New Construction Grants for that quarter are exhausted. New Construction Grants requests eligible for an apportionment shall be apportioned in the following order:
1. To projects that meet the criteria of subsection (d) where the Approved Application date adjusted back in time would have qualified the project for an apportionment.
2. To projects exempt from priority points pursuant to Section 1859.92(e).
3. To projects having the greatest number of priority points.
(B) If two or more projects have the same number of priority points, those projects shall be first ranked according to the Approved Application date.
(C) No New Construction Grants request will be recommended for apportionment unless the project can be entirely apportioned from the funds available for that quarter.
(D) If the Approved Applications for New Construction Grants received prior to the quarter that are Ready for Apportionment, all New Construction Grants requests that were included on an Unfunded List prior to the quarter and New Construction Grants requests that meet the criteria of subsection (d) are less than the quarterly allotment, plus any funds remaining from the previous quarter(s), the excess funds shall be added to the next quarterly allotment.
(E) If the Approved Applications for New Construction Grants requests received prior to the quarter that are Ready for Apportionment, all New Construction Grants requests that were included on an Unfunded List prior to the quarter and New Construction Grants requests that meet the criteria of subsection (d) are greater than the quarterly allotment, plus any funds remaining from the previous quarter(s), any New Construction Grants requests not apportioned by the Board shall be placed on an Unfunded List.
(F) All New Construction Grants requests, as described in (A) above, that are Ready for Apportionment in a quarter shall not be apportioned before the last regularly scheduled Board meeting for that quarter with the exception of New Construction Grants requests that meet the criteria of subsection (b)(1)(A)(1) or (2). Any New Construction Grants request that is Ready for Apportionment in a quarter that meets the criteria of subsection (b)(1)(A)(1) or (2) may be apportioned at any of the regularly scheduled Board meetings during that quarter.
(2) The final allotment shall be apportioned subject to the following:
(A) The Board shall apportion Approved Applications for New Construction Grants received between April 1, 2002 and June 26, 2002 that are Ready for Apportionment, all New Construction Grants requests that were included on an Unfunded List and New Construction Grants requests that meet the criteria of subsection (e), until the final allotment, plus any funds remaining from the previous quarters are exhausted. New Construction Grants requests eligible for an apportionment shall be apportioned in the following order:
1. To projects that meet the criteria of subsection (e) where the Approved Application date adjusted back in time would have qualified the project for an apportionment.
2. To projects exempt from priority points pursuant to Section 1859.92(e).
3. To projects having the greatest number of priority points.
(B) If two or more projects have the same number of priority points, those projects shall be first ranked according to the Approved Application date.
(C) If the Approved Applications for New Construction Grants received between April 1, 2002 and June 26, 2002 that are Ready for Apportionment, all New Construction Grants requests that were included on an Unfunded List and New Construction Grants requests that meet the criteria of subsection (e) are greater than the final allotment, plus any remaining funds from the previous quarter(s), any New Construction Grants requests not apportioned by the Board shall be placed on an Unfunded List.
(D) All New Construction Grants requests, as described in (A) above, that are Ready for Apportionment shall be apportioned at the regularly scheduled Board meeting in August 2002 with the exception of New Construction Grants requests that meet the criteria of subsection (b)(2)(A)(1) or (2). Any New Construction Grants request that is Ready for Apportionment that meets the criteria of subsection (b)(2)(A)(1) or (2) may be apportioned at either the regularly scheduled Board meeting in July or August 2002.
(E) If the Approved Applications for New Construction Grants received between April 1, 2002 and June 26, 2002 that are Ready for Apportionment, all New Construction Grants requests that were included on an Unfunded List and New Construction Grants requests that meet the criteria of subsection (e) are less than the final allotment, plus any remaining funds from the previous quarter(s), the excess funds shall be apportioned on a monthly basis beginning in September 2002 for Approved Applications for New Construction Grants received after June 26, 2002 that are Ready for Apportionment, in descending order, commencing with the project having the greatest number of priority points. This process shall continue until the funds available are exhausted. If two or more projects have the same number of priority points, those projects shall be first ranked according to the Approved Application date.
(c) Approved Applications for New Construction Grants requests received during a quarter may, at the discretion of the Board, be considered for funding available for that quarter or a future quarter if all the following criteria are met:
(1) Either the Executive Officer of the Board, the State Architect, the Director of School Facilities Planning Division within the CDE, or the Chief of the School Property Evaluation and Cleanup Division within the Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) certify to the OPSC that the district's application was delayed for a specified number of calendar days in relation to other similar applications submitted to that agency at the same time.
(2) The Approved Application date adjusted back in time for the number of calendar days the application was delayed is prior to the beginning of the quarter in which the application was received.
(d) Approved Applications for New Construction Grants requests received after June 26, 2002 may, at the discretion of the Board, be considered for funding available for the final allotment if all the following criteria are met:
(1) Either the Executive Officer of the Board, the State Architect, the Director of School Facilities Planning Division within the CDE, or the Chief of the School Property Evaluation and Cleanup Division within the DTSC certify to the OPSC that the district's application was delayed for a specified number of calendar days in relation to other similar applications submitted to that agency at the same time.
