Florida proposal would force districts to share construction funds with charter schools
Feb 7, 2012 12:08 PM
From The Miami Herald: The Florida Senate Education Committee has endorsed a bill that would require local school districts to share their construction and maintenance money with charter schools. Under current law, only traditional public schools can levy property taxes for building and maintenance. School districts have fought hard to defeat the bill, saying it would hinder their ability to pay down debt on existing construction projects.
