Annually, the area education agency in which the state training school and the Iowa juvenile home are located and the department of human services on behalf of the training school and juvenile home shall submit an annual joint application by January 1 for the next succeeding school year to the department of education describing the proposed special education instructional and support programs and service improvements for the training school and juvenile home. The department of education shall review and approve or modify the program and proposed budget by February 1 and shall notify the department of revenue and finance, the area education agency, and the department of human services of the approved budget amount. The moneys for the approved budget shall supplement and not supplant moneys equal to the moneys expended for education for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1986, by the department of human services. The moneys for the approved budget shall be used to ensure that the training school and juvenile home comply with appropriate administrative rules relating to special education adopted by the department of education. Beginning with the fiscal year commencing July 1, 1990, and ending June 30, 1991, and in succeeding years, the department of revenue and finance shall pay the approved budget amount for an area education agency in monthly installments beginning on September 15 and ending on June 15 of the next succeeding school year. The installments shall be as nearly equal as possible as determined by the department of management, taking into consideration the relative budget and cash position of the state's resources. The department of revenue and finance shall transfer the approved budget amount for an area education agency from the moneys appropriated under section 257.16 and make the payment to the area education agency.
The area education agency shall submit an accounting to the department of education by August 1 following the school year for the actual costs of the special education programs and services provided at the training school and juvenile home. The department shall review and approve or modify the accounting by September 1 and shall notify the department of revenue and finance of the approved accounting amount. The department of revenue and finance shall adjust the September payment to the area education agency for the next fiscal year by the difference between the amount of the proposed budget paid to the area education agency and the amount of the actual costs as reflected in the area education agency's accounting. Any amount paid by the department of revenue and finance shall be deducted monthly from the state foundation aid paid under section 257.16 during that fiscal year to all school districts in the state. The portion of the total amount of the approved accounting amount that shall be deducted from the state aid of a school district shall be the same as the ratio that the budget enrollment for the budget year of the school district bears to the total budget enrollment in the state for that budget year.
