Sec. 20f.
(1) From the state school aid fund money appropriated in section 11, there is allocated an amount not to exceed $27,000,000.00 for 2023-2024 only for payments to eligible districts under this section. It is the intent of the legislature that an amount not to exceed $18,000,000.00 is used in 2023-2024, an amount not to exceed $9,000,000.00 is used in 2024-2025, and $0.00 is used in 2025-2026.
(2) The funding under this subsection is from the allocation under subsection (1). A district is eligible for funding under this subsection if the district received a payment under this section as it was in effect for 2013-2014. A district was eligible for funding in 2013-2014 if the sum of the following was less than $5.00:
(a) The increase in the district's foundation allowance or per-pupil payment as calculated under section 20 from 2012-2013 to 2013-2014.
(b) The district's equity payment per membership pupil under former section 22c for 2013-2014.
(c) The quotient of the district's allocation under section 147a for 2012-2013 divided by the district's membership pupils for 2012-2013 minus the quotient of the district's allocation under section 147a for 2013-2014 divided by the district's membership pupils for 2013-2014.
(3) The amount allocated to each eligible district under subsection (2) is an amount per membership pupil equal to the amount per membership pupil the district received under this section in 2013-2014. It is the intent of the legislature that a district's allocation under subsection (2) for 2024-2025 is half of the allocation as otherwise calculated.
(4) The funding under this subsection is from the allocation under subsection (1). A district is eligible for funding under this subsection if the sum of the following is less than $25.00:
(a) The increase in the district's foundation allowance or per-pupil payment as calculated under section 20 from 2014-2015 to 2015-2016.
(b) The decrease in the district's best practices per-pupil funding under former section 22f from 2014-2015 to 2015-2016.
(c) The decrease in the district's pupil performance per-pupil funding under former section 22j from 2014-2015 to 2015-2016.
(d) The quotient of the district's allocation under section 31a for 2015-2016 divided by the district's membership pupils for 2015-2016 minus the quotient of the district's allocation under section 31a for 2014-2015 divided by the district's membership pupils for 2014-2015.
(5) It is the intent of the legislature that a district's allocation under subsection (4) for 2024-2025 is half of the allocation as otherwise calculated. The amount allocated to each eligible district under subsection (4) is an amount per membership pupil equal to $25.00 minus the sum of the following:
(a) The increase in the district's foundation allowance or per-pupil payment as calculated under section 20 from 2014-2015 to 2015-2016.
(b) The decrease in the district's best practices per-pupil funding under former section 22f from 2014-2015 to 2015-2016.
(c) The decrease in the district's pupil performance per-pupil funding under former section 22j from 2014-2015 to 2015-2016.
(d) The quotient of the district's allocation under section 31a for 2015-2016 divided by the district's membership pupils for 2015-2016 minus the quotient of the district's allocation under section 31a for 2014-2015 divided by the district's membership pupils for 2014-2015.
(6) If the allocation under subsection (1) is insufficient to fully fund payments under subsections (3) and (5) as otherwise calculated under this section, the department shall prorate payments under this section on an equal per-pupil basis.
(7) The funds allocated under this section for 2023-2024 are a work project appropriation, and any unexpended funds for 2023-2024 are carried forward into 2024-2025. The purpose of the work project is to continue payments to districts eligible for funding under this section. The estimated completion date of the work project described in this subsection is September 30, 2025.
