1998 Minnesota Statutes

     126C.44 Crime-related costs levy. 

    For taxes levied in 1991 and subsequent years, payable in 
 1992 and subsequent years, each district may make a levy on all 
 taxable property located within the district for the purposes 
 specified in this subdivision.  The maximum amount which may be 
 levied for all costs under this subdivision shall be equal to 
 $1.50 multiplied by the population of the school district.  For 
 purposes of this subdivision, "population" of the school 
 district means the same as contained in section 275.14.  The 
 proceeds of the levy must be used for reimbursing the cities and 
 counties who contract with the district for the following 
 purposes:  (1) to pay the costs incurred for the salaries, 
 benefits, and transportation costs of peace officers and 
 sheriffs for liaison services in the district's middle and 
 secondary schools; (2) to pay the costs for a drug abuse 
 prevention program as defined in Minnesota Statutes 1991 
 Supplement, section 609.101, subdivision 3, paragraph (f), in 
 the elementary schools; or (3) to pay the costs for a gang 
 resistance education training curriculum in the middle schools.  
 The district must initially attempt to contract for these 
 services with the police department of each city or the 
 sheriff's department of the county within the district 
 containing the school receiving the services.  If a local police 
 department or a county sheriff's department does not wish to 
 provide the necessary services, the district may contract for 
 these services with any other police or sheriff's department 
 located entirely or partially within the school district's 
 boundaries.  The levy authorized under this subdivision is not 
 included in determining the school district's levy limitations.
