127A.51 STATEWIDE AVERAGE REVENUE.
By October 1 of each year the commissioner must estimate the statewide average adjusted
general revenue per adjusted marginal cost pupil unit and the disparity in adjusted general revenue
among pupils and districts by computing the ratio of the 95th percentile to the fifth percentile of
adjusted general revenue. The commissioner must provide that information to all districts.
If the disparity in adjusted general revenue as measured by the ratio of the 95th percentile to
the fifth percentile increases in any year, the commissioner shall recommend to the legislature
options for change in the general education formula that will limit the disparity in adjusted general
revenue to no more than the disparity for the previous school year. The commissioner must submit
the recommended options to the education committees of the legislature by January 15.
For purposes of this section and section 126C.10, adjusted general revenue means:
(1) for fiscal year 2002, the sum of basic revenue under section 126C.10, subdivision 2;
supplemental revenue under section 126C.10, subdivisions 9 and 12; transition revenue under
section 126C.10, subdivision 20; referendum revenue under section 126C.17; and equity revenue
under section 126C.10, subdivisions 24a and 24b; and
(2) for fiscal year 2003 and later, the sum of basic revenue under section 126C.10,
subdivision 2
; referendum revenue under section 126C.17; and equity revenue under section
126C.10, subdivisions 24a and 24b.
