  1  2    #1.  By striking page 5, line 34, through page 6,

  1  4    "e.  The amount of tax receipts credited to the
  1  5 account within the secure an advanced vision for
  1  6 education fund maintained in the name of a school
  1  7 district shall be distributed to that school district
  1  8 as provided in paragraphs "a", "b", and "c".  Any

  1 13    #2.  Page 6, line 25, by inserting after the word
  1 14 "fund." the following:  "Appropriations made to the
  1 15 fund shall be credited to a separate appropriations
  1 16 account."
  1 17    #3.  By striking page 6, line 28 through page 10,
  1 18 line 5 and inserting the following:
  1 19    "2.  a.  For purposes of the distributions in
  1 20 subsection 3, the department of education, in
  1 21 consultation with the departments of management and
  1 22 revenue and finance, shall compute by June 1 preceding
  1 23 each budget year the infrastructure tax capacity,
  1 24 statewide infrastructure tax capacity, and
  1 25 infrastructure tax capacity inequity for each school
  1 26 district located in whole or in part in a county that
  1 27 has imposed the local sales and services tax for
  1 28 school infrastructure purposes under this chapter.
  1 29    (1)  "Actual enrollment" for a school district
  1 30 means the actual enrollment as reported by October 1
  1 31 to the department of management by the department of
  1 32 education pursuant to section 257.6, subsection 1.
  1 33    (2)  "Infrastructure tax capacity" means for a
  1 34 school district the estimated amount of revenues that
  1 35 a school district receives or would receive if the
  1 36 regular physical plant and equipment levy of thirty-
  1 37 three cents per thousand dollars is imposed divided by
  1 38 the school district's actual enrollment.
  1 39    (3)  "Infrastructure tax capacity inequity" means
  1 40 the amount that a school district's infrastructure tax
  1 41 capacity is less than the statewide infrastructure tax
  1 42 capacity.  If a school district's infrastructure tax
  1 43 capacity exceeds the statewide infrastructure tax
  1 44 capacity, the school district does not have an
  1 45 inequity.
  1 46    (4)  "Statewide infrastructure tax capacity" means
  1 47 the amount determined by estimating the total revenues
  1 48 that would be generated by a regular physical plant
  1 49 and equipment levy of thirty-three cents per thousand
  1 50 dollars if imposed by all the school districts during
  2  1 the budget year and dividing this estimated revenue
  2  2 amount by the sum of the combined actual enrollment
  2  3 for all school districts.
  2  4    3.  The appropriations credited in a fiscal year to
  2  5 the appropriations account of the secure an advanced
  2  6 vision for education fund shall be distributed as a
  2  7 supplemental school infrastructure amount as follows:
  2  8    a.  The department of education shall compute the
  2  9 infrastructure tax capacity inequity of each school
  2 10 district located in whole or in part in a county that
  2 11 has imposed the tax under this chapter.
  2 12    b.  The department of revenue and finance, in
  2 13 conjunction with the department of education, shall
  2 14 distribute to the extent sufficient funds are
  2 15 available a supplemental school infrastructure amount
  2 16 to each school district that has an infrastructure tax
  2 17 capacity inequity.  The amount of the supplemental
  2 18 school infrastructure amount distributed shall be an
  2 19 amount equal to the school district's infrastructure
  2 20 tax capacity inequity.  If sufficient funds are not
  2 21 available, the director of revenue and finance shall
  2 22 distribute to the school district with the highest
  2 23 infrastructure tax capacity inequity an amount equal
  2 24 to such inequity.  Any additional funds shall then be
  2 25 distributed to the school district with the next
  2 26 highest inequity.  Any additional funds will then be
  2 27 distributed to the next school district in descending
  2 28 order of inequity until the funds have all been
  2 29 distributed.
  2 30    4.  Moneys received by a school district as a
  2 31 supplemental school infrastructure amount shall be
  2 32 used solely for school infrastructure purposes and
  2 33 shall not be used to reduce any property tax levy."
  2 34    #4.  Page 11, line 10, by striking the words and
  2 35 figure "2, paragraph "b"" and inserting the following:
  2 36 "3".
