  1.8      Subdivision 1.  [YOUTH PROGRAMS IN COMMUNITY EDUCATION 
  1.9   REVENUE.] (a) Each district operating a community education 
  1.10  program under section 124D.19 may establish youth programs in

  1.15  mental, physical, and creative abilities of school-age youth. 
  1.16     (b) A district's youth programs in community education 
  1.17  revenue is determined as follows:

  1.22  defined under section 275.14, in excess of 10,000. 
  1.23     Subd. 2.  [YOUTH PROGRAMS IN COMMUNITY EDUCATION LEVY.] To 
  1.24  obtain youth programs in community education revenue, a district

  2.1   capacity of the district.  If the amount of youth programs in 
  2.2   community education levy exceeds the district's youth programs 
  2.3   in community education revenue, the amount of the youth programs 
  2.4   in community education levy is limited to the district's youth 
  2.5   programs in community education revenue.  If the district does

  2.13     (2) the actual amount levied under subdivision 2. 
  2.14     Sec. 2.  [APPROPRIATION.]
