PAG LIN
  1  1    Section 1.  Section 282.18, subsection 10, Code 2003, is
  1  2 amended to read as follows:
  1  3    10.  Notwithstanding section 285.1 relating to
  1  4 transportation of nonresident pupils, the parent or guardian
  1  5 is responsible for transporting the pupil without
  1  6 reimbursement to and from a point on a regular school bus
  1  7 route of the receiving district.  However, a receiving
  1  8 district may send school vehicles into the district of
  1  9 residence of the pupil using the open enrollment option under
  1 10 this section, for the purpose of transporting the pupil to and
  1 11 from school in the receiving district, if the boards of both
  1 12 the sending and receiving districts agree to this arrangement.
  1 13 If the pupil meets the economic eligibility requirements
  1 14 established by the department and state board of education,
  1 15 the sending district is responsible for providing
  1 16 transportation or paying the pro rata cost of the
  1 17 transportation to a parent or guardian for transporting the
  1 18 pupil to and from a point on a regular school bus route of a
  1 19 contiguous receiving district unless the cost of providing
  1 20 transportation or the pro rata cost of the transportation to a
  1 21 parent or guardian exceeds the average transportation cost per
  1 22 pupil transported for the previous school year in the
  1 23 district.  If the cost exceeds the average transportation cost
  1 24 per pupil transported for the previous school year, the
  1 25 sending district shall only be responsible for that average
  1 26 per pupil amount.  A sending district which provides
  1 27 transportation for a pupil to a contiguous receiving district
  1 28 under this subsection may withhold from the district cost per
  1 29 pupil amount, that is to be paid to the receiving district, an
  1 30 amount which represents the average or pro rata cost per pupil
  1 31 for transportation, whichever is less.  
  1 32                           EXPLANATION
  1 33    This bill permits a receiving district to send a school
  1 34 vehicle into the school district of residence to transport a
  1 35 pupil participating in open enrollment to the receiving
  2  1 district.
