AN ACT relative to the penalty for failure to file school expenditure reports.
Be it Enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court convened:
1 School District Taxes; Failure to File Report. Amend RSA 198:4-f, II-III to read as follows:
II. For just cause, the commissioner of the department of education may grant a school district, city, or chartered public school [, or public academy] up to a 30-day extension to such reporting deadline. The commissioner may further extend the deadline when unusual or unforeseen circumstances prevent a school district, city, or chartered public school [, or public academy] from submitting the required reports under paragraph I before the expiration of such extension.
III. The commissioner shall notify the governing body of the school district, city, or chartered public school[, or public academy] that all state aid to education shall be withheld until complete and accurate information is submitted. In the case of a chartered public school which fails to comply with the reporting requirements by the established deadlines for 2 consecutive years, the commissioner may request the state board of education to revoke the enabling charter.
2 Effective Date. This act shall take effect 60 days after its passage.
