	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   SB 111, Fuller. School facilities: military installations.
   Existing federal law provides for construction funding assistance
for elementary and secondary public schools that are located on
United States military installations and that meet specified
criteria.
   This bill would express the intent of the Legislature that
assistance be provided to school districts in the 2015-16 fiscal year
to meet the matching share requirement of a school construction
grant made by the Office of Economic Adjustment of the federal
Department of Defense to construct, renovate, repair, or expand
elementary and secondary public schools located on military
installations. The bill would require the Department of Finance to
explore options, including, but not necessarily limited to, making
low-interest loans available to school districts through the
California Infrastructure and Economic Development Bank, on how best
to assist school districts in meeting the matching share requirement
of the federal school construction grant referenced in the bill.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  SECTION 1.  (a) It is the intent of the Legislature that assistance
be provided to school districts in the 2015-16 fiscal year to meet
the matching share requirement of a school construction grant made by
the Office of Economic Adjustment of the federal Department of
Defense to construct, renovate, repair, or expand elementary and
secondary public schools located on military installations.
   (b) The Department of Finance shall explore options on how best to
assist school districts in meeting the matching share requirement of
the federal school construction grant referenced in subdivision (a).
These options shall include, but not necessarily be limited to,
making low-interest loans available to school districts through the
California Infrastructure and Economic Development Bank.
