School Housing Aid For Districts Impacted By Seasonal Agricultural Employment - State School Building Aid Law Of 1952 - CA Education

Section § 16230

This law allows up to $1.5 million from bonds issued for school building aid to be used for buying portable school and classroom buildings. It's aimed at helping schools that see a big influx of students due to families coming for seasonal agricultural work, making it hard to fit everyone in their current buildings. It ensures that the allocation of funds will not support any form of segregation, whether racial, ethnic, or economic.

Not to exceed one million five hundred thousand dollars ($1,500,000) of the amount of the proceeds of bonds issued under the State School Building Aid Bond Law of 1966 which are reserved pursuant to Section 17214, as enacted by Section 2 of Chapter 1010 of the Statutes of 1976, may be expended pursuant to this article.

Nothing in this article shall be construed to sanction, perpetuate or promote the racial or ethnic segregation, or the segregation by economic class, of pupils in the public schools.

The funds shall be expended by the State Allocation Board, for the acquisition of portable school and classroom buildings, and for the expenses incurred in the administration of this article.

The portable school and classroom buildings may be made available by the board, upon the recommendation of the Director of Compensatory Education, to any school district which, because of the influx for temporary periods in the school year of large numbers of persons employed in seasonal agricultural work, experiences emergency increases in school enrollments of such magnitude as to make it impossible or impractical to accommodate the additional pupils in existing school buildings and facilities available to the district.

Section § 16231

This section explains that portable school and classroom buildings can be given to any school district, regardless of whether they usually get other types of state help. The buildings can be provided for free, rented, or offered to buy through different agreements. The State Allocation Board, with input from the Director of Compensatory Education, decides how to provide these buildings.

The portable school and classroom buildings acquired pursuant to this article shall be made available to a school district irrespective of whether the district is otherwise in receipt of or eligible for assistance under any other provisions of this chapter.

The use of the portable school and classroom buildings may be made available to a school district by letting the same to the district free of charge, or by lease, or by conveying the same to the district under lease-purchase agreement, sale, or outright grant, as determined by the State Allocation Board upon consultation with, and the advice of, the Director of Compensatory Education. In addition the use of the portable school and classroom buildings may be made available to a school district by any of the means specified by Section 16041, as determined by the State Allocation Board upon consultation with, and the advice of, the Director of Compensatory Education.

School districts can apply to use portable buildings by submitting an application to the Director of Compensatory Education. The Director reviews and possibly modifies the application before sending it, along with recommendations, to the State Allocation Board for final decision.

The use of the portable school and classroom buildings under this article shall be based upon application therefor submitted by the governing board of the school district to the Director of Compensatory Education, who shall review the same, make any modifications he or she deems appropriate, and transmit the approved application to the State Allocation Board with his or her recommendations as to the action to be taken thereon.

Section § 16233

This law allows the State Allocation Board to reclaim portable buildings from a district if they are no longer needed. The Board can then sell or dispose of these buildings to anyone, in any way that best serves the interests of the state.

If at any time the State Allocation Board shall determine that the need of the district for particular portable buildings which are made available to the district pursuant to this article has ceased, the board may take possession of the buildings on behalf of the state, and may dispose of the buildings to public or private parties in any manner and under any terms that it deems to be in the best interests of the state.
