Bill > SCR1042

This joint resolution proposes to amend the Arizona Constitution to repeal provisions related to aggregate expenditure limitations for all school districts and the process for exceeding those limitations, while retaining and clarifying expenditure limitations for community college districts. The resolution defines key terms like "cost of living," "expenditure," and "local revenues" as they apply to community college districts, and outlines how their expenditure limitations are calculated and adjusted based on student population and cost of living changes. It also clarifies that school districts will have their expenditure limitations established by law, with any excess expenditures requiring approval from a majority of voters. The changes proposed by this resolution would take effect for fiscal years beginning after June 30, 2027, and would be submitted to voters for approval.
