  1  4    "Sec. 101.  NEW SECTION.  257.50  TRANSPORTATION
  1  5 ASSISTANCE AID TO DISTRICTS.
  1  6    1.  The department shall pay transportation
  1  7 assistance aid to a school district from funds as
  1  8 provided in this section to school districts whose
  1  9 average transportation costs per pupil exceed the
  1 10 state average transportation costs per pupil
  1 11 determined under subsection 2 by twenty-five percent.
  1 12    2.  A district's average transportation costs per
  1 13 pupil shall be determined by dividing the district's
  1 14 actual cost for all children transported in all school
  1 15 buses for a school year pursuant to section 285.1,
  1 16 subsection 12, less the amount received for
  1 17 transporting nonpublic school pupils under section
  1 18 285.1, by the district's actual enrollment for the
  1 19 school year, excluding the shared-time enrollment for
  1 20 the school year as defined in section 257.6.  The
  1 21 state average transportation costs per pupil shall be
  1 22 determined by dividing the total actual costs for all
  1 23 children transported in all districts for a school
  1 24 year, by the total of all districts' actual
  1 25 enrollments for the school year.
  1 26    3.  To be eligible for transportation assistance
  1 27 aid, a school district shall annually certify its
  1 28 actual cost for all children transported in all school
  1 29 buses not later than July 31 after each school year on
  1 30 forms prescribed by the department of education.
  1 31    4.  If a school district's average transportation
  1 32 costs per pupil exceed the state average
  1 33 transportation costs per pupil by twenty-five percent,
  1 34 the department of education shall pay transportation
  1 35 assistance aid equal to the amount of the difference
  1 36 multiplied by the district's actual enrollment for the
  1 37 school year excluding the shared-time enrollment for
  1 38 the school year as defined in section 257.6.
  1 39    5.  There is appropriated from the general fund of
  1 40 the state to the department of education, for each
  1 41 fiscal year, an amount necessary to pay transportation
  1 42 assistance aid pursuant to this section.
  1 43 Transportation assistance aid is miscellaneous income
  1 44 for purposes of chapter 257."
