The bill, as amended, does four things: 1. It amends the calculation of transportation costs by deducting revenues received from other school districts, individuals, organizations or federal aid. (This money had been doublecounted). 2. It amends the definition of \"attendance\" for purposes of determining average daily membership in attendance and average daily membership in residence. 3. It revises home-schooled student counts to match the federal definition. 4. It changes the formula for calculating the \"base cost\" component of an adequate education to one that reflects and is adjusted for inflation as calculated by the Northeast Consumer Price Index (NCPI). Use of the NCPI to adjust the \"base cost\" component should be familiar, as the House passed that in HB 1259-FN-L. Its use should more accurately reflect the cost of an adequate education and improve budget planning at both state and local levels. The bill, as amended, sunsets this formula in 2009. The Adequacy Commission will evaluate the formula and report to the legislature in 2007. It is estimated that these changes will increase the cost of an adequate education from $896 million in FY03 to $927 million in FY04."}, {"side": "Minority", "author": "Rep. Marjorie K. Smith", "committee": "Finance", "text": "While the minority would support much of the bill as amended, we oppose Section 3 that provides that the state will no longer calculate adequacy based on the adequacy formula. Instead, we will use the Consumer Price Index (CPI) to limit future increases in state funding for an adequate education. Without the language in Section 3, the adequacy formula that the legislature had previously agreed to would have totaled $965,370,288. Instead, Section 3 results in adequacy funding of about $927 million. The adequacy grant pays for only a small percentage of the cost of education. Every dollar not provided by state revenue sources increases the burden on local property taxpayers. The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), which produces the CPI, explains that a CPI index is not a cost of living index. BLS says that \"a complete cost of living index would go beyond this to also take into account changes in other governmental or environmental factors that affect consumers' well being. It is very difficult to determine the proper treatment of public goods, such as safety and education.\" The minority continue to believe that Section 3 is bad public policy that hurts New Hampshire citizens in every city and town."}], "source": "House Calendar 31, 2002", "date": "2002-04-12", "dated": "printed", "cite": "HC 31", "cite_url": "https://gc.nh.gov/house/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=calendars%5C2002%5CNo%2031%20April%2012%202002.pdf"}], "docket_reports": [{"date": "2002-02-13", "dated": "recorded", "body": "S", "committee": "Finance", "side": "", "recommendation": "OUGHT TO PASS WITH AMENDMENT", "vote_yeas": null, "vote_nays": null, "amendment": "2627", "new_title": false, "cite": "SC 11A", "cite_url": ""}], "report_actions": [], "veto_message": null, "bill_note": null, "subject": "Education - General", "subject_source": "granite record", "house_committee": "Finance", "senate_committee": "Finance", "lsr": "2002-3189", "docket_url": "https://gc.nh.gov/bill_status/legacy/bs2016/bill_docket.aspx?lsr=3189&sy=2002&txtsessionyear=2002&txtbillnumber=sb425&sortoption=billnumber", "documents": [{"label": "Bill status page", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/bill_status/legacy/bs2016/Bill_status.aspx?lsr=3189&sy=2002&txtsessionyear=2002&txtbillnumber=sb425&sortoption=billnumber", "kind": "status"}, {"label": "Docket", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/bill_status/legacy/bs2016/bill_docket.aspx?lsr=3189&sy=2002&txtsessionyear=2002&txtbillnumber=sb425&sortoption=billnumber", "kind": "docket"}, {"label": "HC 31", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/house/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=calendars%5C2002%5CNo%2031%20April%2012%202002.pdf", "kind": "record"}], "amendments": [{"num": "2642", "kind": "Floor Amendment", "where": "floor", "date": "2002-02-14", "body": "S", "adopted": false, "vote_kind": "RC", "mover": "Sen.

The general court recognizes the inherent imprecision and subjectivity involved in determining the cost of providing the opportunity for an adequate education. In the exercise of its constitutional authority and discretion, to provide the opportunity for pupils to obtain an adequate education, the general court has adopted an average costing methodology. The general court recognizes that this costing methodology may produce spending pressures and results that may not accurately reflect the cost of continuing to provide adequate educational opportunity over time. As a result, the general court finds that changing the base cost per pupil by reference to the consumer price index is the most appropriate way to calculate changes in the cost of an adequate education.\n\n2 School Money; Definitions.
