Bill Tracking, Additional Documents Chamber Status

Amend the bill by striking out all of section 8 and inserting the following:

Sec. 8. 20-A MRSA §8606-A, sub-§3,  as amended by PL 2007, c. 131, §5, is further amended to read:

3. State reimbursement.   State reimbursement for expenditures on adult education programs must be based on each unit's, region's or center's actual adult education program costs in the base year , except that in fiscal years 1991-92 and 1992-93 available state funding is limited to the fiscal year 1990-91 level, and in fiscal years 1995-96 and 1996-97 available state funding is limited to the fiscal year 1994-95 level.
A. The state reimbursement must be based on the unit's, region's or center's expenditures for the base year in accordance with the maximum allowable expenditures and the local program cost adjustment to the equivalent of the year prior to the year of the allocation.
B. State reimbursement must be paid to each eligible unit, region or center during the 2nd quarter of the State's fiscal year.’

summary

The bill repeals the requirement that state reimbursement for expenditures on adult education programs must be based on actual costs. This amendment retains that provision of law but removes outdated statutory exceptions for fiscal years 1991-92, 1992-93, 1995-96 and 1996-97.
