§ 16198 Exceptional Children Facility Funding

• •The board controls the amount of money set aside for special‑needs facilities.
• •It must create size and cost rules that are similar to those used for regular school buildings.
• •These rules apply even if other laws say something different.

A school district asks for money to build a new classroom for students with disabilities.

The board will tell the district how big the room can be and how much it may cost, using the same standards that apply to a regular school building in a district that didn't apply for this special‑needs program.
