Neal M. Kurk", "committee": "Finance", "vote_yeas": 17, "vote_nays": 10, "text": "HB 117, as amended, funds an adequate education for the state's public school pupils in a way consistent with New Hampshire's traditions and values of limited government and limited taxation. With the sponsor's concurrence, the Committee replaced the original language of the bill with a carefully crafted amendment. This amendment implements a low-rate uniform statewide education property tax that, when combined with the tobacco tax, a uniform utility state education tax, current state expenditures on local education, and a portion of the increase in state revenues, raises $707 million without raising business tax rates or imposing either an income or sales tax. These sums are dedicated to local public education through a newly created state education trust fund. The amount raised supports an adequate education for public school pupils in grades one through twelve at an average distribution of $3,700 per pupil. The adequacy level is based on the recommendations of the Adequate Education Cost and Municipal Grant Distribution Commission in its December 1998 report. This level of funding will raise New Hampshire from last in the nation in state education contribution to the top 20 in the nation. The funds are distributed to each municipality based on the number and needs of its pupils, weighting those needs on such factors as grade level, participation in vocational education, special education, and participation in the free and reduced school lunch program. The plan goes into effect on April 1, 1999, and thus avoids any disruption in public education programs in the state. Current kindergarten aid, building aid, and catastrophic aid programs are continued unchanged. The uniform education property tax is set at $8.50. There is a homestead exemption for all primary homeowners of 25% of the home's value or $40,000, whichever is less. A four-year phase-in provision eases the burden of a sharp tax increase in those municipalities. This unique phase-in is substantially funded by the additional $62 million intended for distribution in fall 1999 under the foundation aid formula pursuant to HB 1075 (1998). This amendment supersedes last year's interim plan, thus making those funds available. The establishment of a hardship relief provision provides further protection for low- and moderate-income homeowners in high property value communities. In those communities homeowners with household income less than 75% of the state median (approx. $40,000) and who see an increase greater than 20% in the school portion of their property tax are eligible to have a portion of their state education tax abated for each of the first five years. Municipalities with rapidly growing student populations are eligible for additional per pupil adequate education grants. HB 117 as amended establishes a supplemental education grant of up to $400 per pupil in addition to and outside of the adequate education grant of $3,700. This supplemental education grant is available to districts whose equalized value per pupil is less than the state average. This is intended to target the most needy districts. Local control is continued. School districts may spend on education as much as they choose above the adequacy amount. No limits are placed on how districts operate or spend their budget. Various provisions deal with implementation of the uniform statewide education property tax. Assessment equalization standards and methods are established so that each municipality will pay its fair share of the tax. Municipal grants will be announced by October 1 of each year to allow school boards and school district meetings to plan their budgets appropriately. The department of education is appropriated $169,500 for a position and to upgrade school district computers to enable the collection and submission of required data. The department of revenue administration over the next biennium is appropriated $1 million to upgrade municipal computer systems, and $2 million for department expenditures in administering and implementing this act. A permanent, 10-member legislative oversight committee is established. Among other responsibilities, it is charged with (a) reviewing the provision of an adequate education; (b) looking at alternative approaches to calculating the cost of an adequate education, including the \"market basket\" approach; (c) considering the appropriateness of a fixed or variable statewide education property tax rate; and (d) examining the average daily membership in residence data. The majority felt that the bill as amended is a constitutional, rational, and appropriate response to the Claremont funding ruling. The Committee has made education funding a priority and as such the funding sources are clearly identified. The state's responsibility as defined in the Claremont decision is to fund an adequate education. The committee firmly believes that $707 million fulfills that responsibility."}, {"side": "Minority", "author": "Rep.

It does so without an income tax or a sales tax and without expanded gambling. The SMART plan preserves the New Hampshire advantage. The SMART plan sets the cost of an adequate education at an average of $3700 per pupil, with a provision for supplementary grants of up to $400 per pupil to property-poor communities. State building aid, kindergarten aid, and catastrophic special education aid are continued in their present form. The SMART plan funds its $707 million cost with an $8.75 per thousand statewide property tax. In effect, this tax replaces part of the school portion of the local property tax. The plan provides for a 25% homestead exemption for a taxpayer's primary residence (capped at $40,000) and a phased-in, five-year hardship exemption for individuals in donor communities whose school property taxes increase by more than 20% in a year. Additional revenue comes from an $8.75 statewide tax on utility property; the tobacco tax, including the recently passed increase; the nuclear property tax; Sweepstakes revenues; and the school portion of revenue sharing. As a result, some 180 communities will see their property taxes decrease. The amendment includes a new property tax transition grant to donor communities. The purpose of the grant is to mitigate the effect of the statewide property tax on low-income property owners. The Committee believes that it is better policy to help property-poor communities without harming property-rich communities. These grants are not like the unconstitutional ABC abatements, because the grants are not abatements of taxes but, like revenue sharing, are appropriations from the general fund. Further, the proposal allows for the community to best decide how the funds can and should be utilized. If the funds are used to reduce property taxes, almost all communities will see their property tax burden decrease. The plan funds grants of $46 million to offset the $52 million of statewide property tax paid in by the donor communities. Municipalities will decide how to use these funds. This new grant program makes the phase-in program unnecessary, and it has been removed from the SMART plan. The Committee understands the concerns expressed by the municipalities about the administrative impact of the implementation of a statewide property tax. Therefore a formal subcommittee has been established that is committed to working with the NH Municipal Association and others to address and resolve those concerns."}, {"side": "Minority", "author": "Rep.

The minority believes the House should reject this bill, and adopt a plan or plans with an appropriate adequacy number, a detailed description of revenue sources, and a source or sources of new revenue sufficient to the task at hand. The Property Tax Transition Grant which is added in this amended version contains a formula for returning funds to donor communities purportedly to alleviate the harm to low income people. But the formula contained in this bill does not accomplish its intended goal. The latest amendment, developed last week with the intent of easing the pain of donor communities, could in fact end up hurting donor communities even more. Their payment level is increased from $48 to $52 million and should the grant language be struck down as unconstitutional, the entire $52 million would be due in the first year, because the four year phase-in has been eliminated. Thus, donor towns would owe $52 million rather than $12 million. That's far from an easing of the pain.

In December 1997, the New Hampshire supreme court in the Claremont II decision ruled that it is the state's duty to define and provide all New Hampshire's public school students with an adequate education, and further that the manner of raising revenue to pay for an adequate education be through a system of taxation that is proportional in substance and just and reasonable in application.\n\nII. The general court recognizes the inherent imprecision, subjectivity, and difficulty in determining the cost of an adequate education. Numerous complex financial, budgetary, administrative, and educational elements must be in place in order for the state to fully meet the mandates of Claremont II. Those mandates coupled with the policy of the state recognize that an adequate public education is not a static concept removed from the demands of an evolving world. Such an education shall provide all students with an opportunity to acquire the knowledge and skills necessary to prepare them for successful participation in the social, economic, scientific, technological, and civic realities of society, now and in the years to come. The general court has considered that the needed changes are long-term in nature, truly embedded on the local and state level and are both cost and educationally effective. Thoughtful and deliberate planning with the involvement of many sources of expertise is required and therefore in addition to this act the Adequate Education and Education Financing Commission is established.\n\nIII. Through the enactment of RSA 193-E, the general court defined an adequate education. The definition grew out of work undertaken in the early 1990s to develop curriculum frameworks which specifically address the importance of establishing and measuring what all New Hampshire students should know and be able to do. The curriculum frameworks were developed with the widespread participation of educators, business people, government officials, community representatives, and parents. They have evolved into a critical component of providing a quality public education to New Hampshire students.\n\nIV. The New Hampshire educational improvement and assessment program (\"NHEIAP\") tests were developed in conjunction with the curriculum frameworks as a measure of student performance. The general court therefore finds that the NHEIAP tests are a measure of student performance and can be used to develop and implement effective methods for assessing learning and its application. The general court further finds that in determining the cost of a constitutionally adequate education, performance based outcome criteria, specifically the NHEIAP test scores, can be used to identify school districts that are delivering such a constitutionally adequate education. The NHEIAP tests are comprehensive and difficult. Students taking these tests in the third, sixth, and tenth grades are scored on 4 levels of performance: novice, basic, proficient, and advanced. The general court finds that students who score in the basic, proficient, and advanced levels on these state tests are making progress toward achieving the goals set forth in RSA 193-E.\n\nV. There is no single, empirically correct method of establishing the cost of an adequate education. Therefore, after careful consideration and study, the general court selects a methodology for establishing the cost of an adequate education that is a valid and just methodology. The general court finds that school districts that have 40 to 60 percent of students scoring at or above the basic level on the NHEIAP tests are those districts that are meeting the relevant outcome expectations and are providing an adequate education. As such, in determining the cost of an adequate education, the general court includes all school districts with 40 to 60 percent of students scoring at or above the basic level. The general court believes that this range of results provides a reasonable sample of districts that excludes unrepresentative demographic extremes, including but not limited to, parental income and educational levels. The general court finds that those school districts providing an adequate public education in the most cost effective manner are those school districts in the sample group with per pupil base level education costs in the lower half of the selected school districts. Additionally, the cost of an education calculated from performance based outcome criteria includes costs that are not required to provide the curriculum, programs, and services essential for a constitutionally adequate education. Therefore, it is reasonable to adjust this cost downward by a percentage that reflects some administrative, curricular, extra-curricular, and other costs incorporated in the available data. Over time it may be possible to calculate this adjustment with greater precision, however, at this time the general court has used an estimate for this adjustment.\n\nVI. In cities and towns with relatively higher property values, sharp increases in property taxes may cause business failure where fixed costs increase faster than the ability to recoup them. Commercial rental property owners may find themselves locked in by lease provisions that prevent them from recouping tax increases from tenants, resulting in reduced reinvestment in the property, and potential foreclosure or bankruptcy. Also, substantial increases in property tax obligations may cause or permit lenders to foreclose on mortgage notes based on the decreased ability of the borrower to meet the income level required by the lender. Tax capitalization which decreases property values may also cause foreclosures on otherwise performing loans because the regulated lending institution must call the loan to comply with rules and regulations. Therefore a phase-in provision is included herein which is intended to ameliorate these consequences as far as is practicable, and to allow property owners and local governments time to adjust to the new state education property tax enacted herein.\n\n17:2 New Subparagraph; Education Trust Fund. Amend RSA 6:12, I by inserting after subparagraph (vvv) the following new subparagraph:\n\n(www) Money received under 77-A, RSA 77-E, RSA 78, RSA 78-A, RSA 78-B, RSA 83-F, RSA 198:46, and from the sweepstakes fund, which shall be credited to the education trust fund under RSA 198:39.\n\n17:3 Gender Reference Change.

This sum shall then be divided by the total average daily membership in attendance at the elementary school level in all of the selected school districts and the result shall be multiplied by .9025.\n\nII. The weighted average daily membership in residence for each district shall be calculated by combining the district's elementary average daily membership in residence with its weighted high school average daily membership in residence, the district's average daily membership in residence resulting from educationally disabled children, and the district's additional average daily membership in residence resulting from elementary pupils eligible to receive a free or reduced-priced meal. The statewide weighted average daily membership in residence of pupils shall be calculated by combining the weighted average daily membership in residence of each school district in the state.\n\nIII.

adequate public education and making an appropriation therefor.\n\nMETHODOLOGY:\n\nThe DOE states they are unable to determine the adequate education block grants needed, in addition to foundation aid, to fund an adequate education, since the data from 1997-1998 is still being collected and prior year data does not calculate average cost per pupil as defined in this bill.\n\nThe DRA states they cannot estimate the fiscal impact of this bill since the cost of an adequate education is unknown.\n\nNeither Department could estimate the increase in state and local general fund expenditures due to increased administrative costs.\n\nThe DRA did offer the following information:\n\n\u00b7 A school tax rate of $7 per thousand applied to all property would raise approximately $461 million; and\n\n\u00b7 There are 9 incorporated towns and several other unincorporated towns that have school tax rates below $7 per thousand.", "in_text": [], "chars": 90188}, "nver": 0, "namd": 0, "rsa":
