Upon adoption of the audit findings by the Board and
in lieu of the collection procedures outlined in Education Code Section
17076.10(c)(1),
a school district, county office of education, or Charter School may request a
repayment schedule of up to twenty years, in equal annual installments, if the
total repayment of State funds within 60 days of the Board action would cause
the school district, county office of education, or Charter School to fall into
fiscal distress. School districts, county offices of education, or Charter
Schools requesting a repayment schedule must be in a severe hardship condition
as evidenced by at least one of the following criteria:
(a) For a school district or county office of
education, the district or county office of education is listed on the current
CDE List of Negative and Qualified Certifications of School Districts and
County Offices of Education.
(b)
For a school district or county office of education, the amount due to the
State for one or more projects would cause the district or county office of
education to be listed on the CDE List of Negative and Qualified Certifications
of School Districts and County Offices of Education report. Where the financial
condition of a school district is involved, the county office of education must
submit a letter to the OPSC on behalf of its representative school districts
for consideration substantiating that the repayment will place the district on
the CDE List of Negative and Qualified Certifications of School Districts and
County Offices of Education. Where the financial condition of a county office
of education is involved, the CDE must submit a letter to the OPSC on behalf of
the county office of education for consideration substantiating that the
repayment will place the county office of education on the CDE List of Negative
and Qualified Certifications of School Districts and County Offices of
Education.
(c) For a Charter
School, the amount due to the State for one or more projects would cause the
Charter School severe financial hardship. The Charter School's authorizing
agency must submit a letter to the OPSC on behalf of the Charter School for
consideration substantiating that the repayment may result in the Charter
School being unable to meet its financial obligations for the current or
subsequent two fiscal years.
The repayment schedule will commence on July 1 of the
fiscal year following the repayment schedule approval date.
