 4   following:
 5     "Sec. ___.  NEW SECTION.  125.83A  PLACEMENT IN
 6   CERTAIN FEDERAL FACILITIES.
 7     If upon completion of the commitment hearing, the
 8   court finds that the contention that the respondent is
 9   a chronic substance abuser has been sustained by clear
10   and convincing evidence, and the court is furnished
11   evidence that the respondent is eligible for care and
12   treatment in a facility operated by the veterans
13   administration or another agency of the United States
14   government and that the facility is willing to receive
15   the respondent, the court may so order.  The
16   respondent, when so placed in a facility operated by
17   the veterans administration or another agency of the
18   United States government within or outside of this
19   state, shall be subject to the rules of the veterans
20   administration or other agency, but shall not lose any
21   procedural rights afforded the respondent by this
22   chapter.  The chief officer of the facility shall
23   have, with respect to the respondent so placed, the
24   same powers and duties as the chief medical officer of
25   a hospital in this state would have in regard to
26   submission of reports to the court, retention of
27   custody, transfer, convalescent leave or discharge.
28   Jurisdiction is retained in the court to maintain
29   surveillance of the respondent's treatment and care,
30   and at any time to inquire into the respondent's
31   condition and the need for continued care and custody.
32     2.  Upon receipt of a certificate stating that a
33   respondent placed under this chapter is eligible for
34   care and treatment in a facility operated by the
35   veterans administration or another agency of the
36   United States government which is willing to receive
37   the respondent without charge to the state of Iowa or
38   any county in the state, the chief medical officer may
39   transfer the respondent to that facility.  Upon so
40   doing, the chief medical officer shall notify the
41   court which ordered the respondent's placement in the
42   same manner as would be required in the case of a
43   transfer under section 125.86, subsection 2, and the
44   respondent transferred shall be entitled to the same
45   rights as the respondent would have under that
46   subsection.  No respondent shall be transferred under
47   this section who is confined pursuant to conviction of
48   a public offense or whose placement was ordered upon
49   contention of incompetence to stand trial by reason of
50   mental illness, without prior approval of the court

 3   competent jurisdiction of another state or the
 4   District of Columbia, under which any person is
 5   hospitalized or placed in a facility operated by the
 6   veterans administration or another agency of the
 7   United States government, shall have the same force
 8   and effect with respect to that person while the
 9   person is in this state as the judgment or order would
10   have if the person were in the jurisdiction of the
11   court which issued it.  That court shall be deemed to
12   have retained jurisdiction of the person so placed for
13   the purpose of inquiring into that person's condition
14   and the need for continued care and custody, as do
15   courts in this state under this section.  Consent is
16   given to the application of the law of the state or
17   district in which the court is situated which issued
18   the judgment or order as regards authority of the
19   chief officer of any facility, operated in this state
20   by the veterans administration or another agency of
21   the United States government, to retain custody,
22   transfer, place on convalescent leave or discharge the

Osterhaus of Jackson from the floor as follows:

H-1823

 1     Amend House File 726 as follows:
 2     1.  Page 5, by inserting after line 34 the
 3   following:
 4     "Sec. 301.  NEW SECTION.  426C.1  COMMERCIAL
 5   PROPERTY CREDIT FUND - APPORTIONMENT - PAYMENT.
 6     1.  A commercial property credit fund is created.
 7   There is appropriated annually from the general fund
 8   of the state to the department of revenue and finance
 9   to be credited to the commercial property credit fund,
10   an amount sufficient to implement this chapter.
11     The director of revenue and finance shall issue
12   warrants on the commercial property credit fund
13   payable to the county treasurers of the several
14   counties of the state under this chapter.
15     "Commercial property" as used in this chapter means
16   buildings and land assessed as commercial property
17   which is owned by a person operating a retail business
18   occupying the property and employing ten or fewer
19   full-time equivalent positions.
20     2.  The commercial property credit fund shall be
21   apportioned each year so as to give a credit against
22   the tax on each eligible commercial property in the
23   state in an amount equal to the actual levy on the
24   first fifteen thousand dollars of actual value for
25   each eligible commercial property.
26     3.  The amount due each county shall be paid in two
27   payments on November 15 and March 15 of each fiscal
28   year, drawn upon warrants payable to the respective
29   county treasurers.  The two payments shall be as
30   nearly equal as possible.
31     4.  Annually the department of revenue and finance
32   shall estimate the credit not to exceed the actual
33   levy on the first fifteen thousand dollars of actual
34   value of each eligible commercial property, and shall
35   certify to the county auditor of each county the
36   credit and its amount in dollars.  Each county auditor
37   shall then enter the credit against the tax levied on
38   each eligible commercial property in each county
39   payable during the ensuing year, designating on the
40   tax lists the credit as being from the commercial
41   property credit fund, and credit shall then be given
42   to the several taxing districts in which eligible
43   commercial properties are located in an amount equal
44   to the credits allowed on the taxes of the commercial
45   properties.  The amount of credits shall be
46   apportioned by each county treasurer to the several
47   taxing districts as provided by law, in the same
48   manner as though the amount of the credit had been
49   paid by the owners of the commercial properties.
50   However, the several taxing districts shall not draw

Page 2  

 1   the funds so credited until after the semiannual
 2   allocations have been received by the county
 3   treasurer, as provided in this chapter.  Each county
 4   treasurer shall show on each tax receipt the amount of
 5   credit received from the commercial property credit
 6   fund.
 7     5.  The commercial property tax credit allowed in
 8   this chapter shall not exceed the actual amount of
 9   taxes payable on the eligible commercial property,
10   exclusive of any special assessments levied against
11   the commercial property.
12     Sec. 302.  NEW SECTION.  426C.2  QUALIFYING FOR
13   CREDIT.
14     A person who wishes to qualify for the credit
15   allowed under this chapter shall obtain the
16   appropriate forms for filing for the credit from the
17   assessor.  The person claiming the credit shall file a
18   verified statement and designation of commercial
19   property with the assessor for the year for which the
20   person is first claiming the credit.  The claim shall
21   be filed not later than July 1 of the year for which
22   the person is claiming the credit.  A claim filed
23   after July 1 of the year for which the person is
24   claiming the credit shall be considered as a claim
25   filed for the following year.
26     Upon the filing and allowance of the claim, the
27   claim shall be allowed on that commercial property for
28   successive years without further filing as long as the
29   property is legally or equitably owned and used as
30   commercial property by that person or that person's
31   spouse on July 1 of each of those successive years.
32   When the property is sold or transferred, the buyer or
33   transferee who wishes to qualify shall refile for the
34    credit.
35     Sec. 303.  NEW SECTION.  426C.3  FORMS - RULES.
36     The director of revenue and finance shall prescribe
37   the form for the making of verified statement and
38   designation of commercial property, the form for the
39   supporting affidavits required herein, and such other
40   forms as may be necessary for the proper
41   administration of this chapter.  Whenever necessary,
42   the department of revenue and finance shall forward to
43   the county auditors of the several counties in the
44   state the prescribed sample forms, and the county
45   auditors shall furnish blank forms prepared in
46   accordance therewith with the assessment rolls, books,
47   and supplies delivered to the assessors.  The
48   department of revenue and finance shall prescribe and
49   the county auditors shall provide on the forms for
50   claiming the commercial property credit a statement to

Page 3

 1   the effect that the owner realizes that the owner must
 2   give written notice to the assessor when the owner
 3   changes the use of the property.
 4     The director of revenue and finance may prescribe
 5   rules, not inconsistent with the provisions of this
 6   chapter, necessary to carry out and effectuate its
 7   purposes."

36   cooperation meeting, the child may be deemed to be
37   truant.
38     ___.  a.  If a child deemed to be truant under this
39   section is a member of a family receiving family
40   investment program assistance under chapter 239 and
41   has not completed the sixth grade, the school truancy
42   officer may provide notification to the department of
43   human services.  An initial and any subsequent
44   notification shall be made in writing.  The form of
45   the notification shall be mutually determined by the
46   departments of human services and education.

48   chapter to the contrary, unless prohibited by federal
49   law, a school truancy officer may release information
50   to the department of human services and may receive

 3   addition, the school truancy officer may utilize other
 4   sources available to the officer as necessary to
 5   verify whether a child is a member of a family
 6   receiving family investment program assistance.
 7   Release of information under this section shall be
 8   limited to the minimum access to information necessary
 9   to achieve the purposes of this section.
10        .  A public school board or governing body of an
11   accredited nonpublic school shall exercise the
12   authority granted under this section as a means of
13   increasing and ensuring school attendance of young
14   children, as education is a critical element in the
15   success of individuals and good attendance habits
16   should be developed and reinforced at an early age."

33   or accredited nonpublic school or any other person who

37   for the county in which the information was
38   disseminated or redisseminated.  Upon a finding by a
39   preponderance of the evidence that a person has
40   violated this section, the court shall issue an
41   injunction punishable by civil contempt ordering the
42   person in violation of this section to comply with the
43   requirements of, and to refrain from any violations of
44   section 235.5B, 299.5A, or 299.12 with respect to the
