Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 28, July 12, 2024
(a) The Director of General Services may
						  revise any item, within a site, plans, site and plans, furniture and equipment,
						  or construction project budget upward or downward, and pursuant to his
						  determination under Section
						  1820(b) may
						  increase the contribution of the district with a corresponding reduction in
						  State aid and/or apportionment, provided that no revision authorized under this
						  subsection results in an increase in the total amount of the project budget
						  prescribed by the Board or contemplates an expenditure not otherwise permitted
						  by the Act or these regulations.
(b) The Director of General Services may
						  reduce any apportionment or State aid as may be necessary to reflect any
						  revision or contribution made by him pursuant to (a) above. Such reduction
						  shall be deemed to be immediately effective, but the district may to the extent
						  thereof appeal the same to the Director of General Services or to the Board as
						  hereinafter provided, within six months of such revision. If in the judgment of
						  the Director of General Services the basis of the appeal is valid in whole or
						  in part, he may, by appropriate revision of his previous action acquiesce in
						  whole or in part in such appeal. To the extent he does not acquiesce in such
						  appeal, the district may further appeal to the Board either orally or via
						  written documents. The Board shall affirm or modify the reduction of the
						  Director of General Services. The latter shall thereupon revise the project
						  budget and/or financing in any manner necessary to accord with such
						  determination of the Board.
(c) No
						  change order shall be approved or become a basis for revising a construction
						  project if such change order would increase the amount of the construction
						  contract because of additional work performed or to be performed after the
						  notice of completion has been filed or the project has been accepted by the
						  governing body of the school district, whichever first occurs.
(d) The Executive Officer shall not issue
						  authorizations for expenditure of any remaining funds apportioned for the
						  approved purposes of a construction project and/or furniture and equipment
						  after one year has elapsed from the date of completion of the project as
						  determined by the date notice of completion is filed or the date the project is
						  accepted by the governing body of the school district, whichever first occurs,
						  unless the Board specifically so directs after determining that good cause
						  exists therefor.
