11 School Districts would lose over $1 million each under House Budget
(CONCORD) The Josiah Bartlett Center for Public Policy today released a study of New Hampshire's Building Aid Program, including how much each school district in the state would receive next year under two versions of the state budget. The budget approved by the New Hampshire House last week suspended the Building Aid Program for the next two years. Under this budget, 11 school districts would each lose over $1 million compared to Governor John Lynch's Budget Proposal and the Republican Alternative Budget. Both proposals set aside $83.3 million for Building Aid over the next two years.
"If the Legislature suspends the Building Aid Program this biennium, the costs to local school districts will vary greatly," said Lead Investigator Grant Bosse, who authored the report. "Cities and towns with new schools, or projects approved by voters in March, would see a shift from the state program to their local property taxes."
Under the Building Aid Program, between 30% to 60% of school construction costs, and 40% of SAU construction costs, are reimbursed by the state. The state Department of Education has identified those projects eligible for reimbursement in 2009-2010, totaling $45 million. Each district will receive a pro-rated amount of whatever total is allocated by the Legislature. Based on the $41.65 million recommended by both Governor John Lynch and the Republican Alternative Budget voted down in the House last week, the Josiah Bartlett Center calculated how much each district would have received.
"The amount of Building Aid and how to fund it are questions for the Legislature," Bosse added. "This study will let State Senators know how each school district in the state would be affected by the budget approved by their House colleagues last week."
