A. There is created in the state treasury a revolving loan fund to be known as the "public school district general obligation bonds loan fund". The fund is established as an additional source for payments of principal and interest due on public school district general obligation indebtedness already incurred or incurred in the future or for payments of any other obligations arising in connection with that indebtedness. The fund shall be drawn upon only in the event ad valorem taxes or other revenues of the public school district available for the described payments are either insufficient or are not received by the public school district at the time due or anticipated. The state department of public education [public education department] shall administer the fund and may make loans from the fund in accordance with the School District Loan Act. Money remaining in the fund at the end of any fiscal year shall not revert to the general fund.

B. The state department of public education [public education department] shall deposit in the fund all receipts from the repayment of loans made pursuant to the School District Loan Act.

C. Each July 1, balances in the public school district general obligation bonds loan fund in excess of one million dollars ($1,000,000) shall be transferred to the state-support reserve fund.

History: Laws 1989, ch. 134, § 3.
