§ 16080 Deduction For School Aid Repayment

The state controller decides each school district's yearly repayment, splits it into four equal pieces, and takes those pieces out of the district's February‑May school fund payments, sending the money to a special building aid fund that can only go into the state’s general fund later.

Key Takeaways

  • •The controller figures out each district’s annual repayment each year.
  • •The repayment is taken in four equal parts from the February‑May installments of the district’s school fund payments.
  • •All of the taken money goes to the State School Building Aid Fund and can only be transferred to the General Fund later.

Example

A school district receives $100,000 each month from the State School Fund. The controller says the district must repay $20,000 for the year.

The controller will take $5,000 out of the district’s February, March, April, and May payments, sending the total $20,000 to the State School Building Aid Fund. That money can later be moved only into the state’s General Fund.
