Study Session
The study session covered several legislative updates and discussions regarding proposed bills. Key topics included SB69, concerning school device policies and establishing limitations on cell phone use from bell to bell, which the JLC supports. Discussions also covered SB241, the early literacy bill focused on third-grade reading goals, and HB293, which proposes changes to high school athletics practice time limits and out-of-season participation moratoriums, where the JLC leans toward opposition due to local control concerns. Another significant item was HB1170, the school board referendum amendment, which is opposed due to concerns about eroding local control. Financial discussions involved HB1 setting the new WPU value, HB236 introducing amendments to truth and taxation processes requiring preliminary budget declarations, and HB300, which seeks to reinstate the 5-year hold harmless for taxes. Furthermore, SB62, a school funding amendment, was analyzed, noting its potential for immediate funding loss based on enrollment decline rather than a one-year grace period, although clarification was provided that a $77 million decrease might be redirected to areas like special education. Finally, SB65 modifies the state basic levy, effectively moving the state's collection of that levy into an unrestricted state fund, which drew concerns regarding interest earnings. A new Finance and Audit Committee was introduced, emphasizing increased transparency, proactive budget processes, and increasing fund balances to meet GFOA guidance for long-term financial health.
