construction.

FISCAL NOTE ANALYSIS
STATE OF ALASKA BILL NO. HB 212
2018 LEGISLATIVE SESSION
Analysis
Under AS 14.11.030, this bill seeks to clarify that the regional educational attendance area and small municipal school
district fund (REAA Fund) may be used to pay for the costs of major maintenance in addition to the currently eligible costs
of school construction, but establishes the primary purpose of the fund as being school construction. The bill also makes
necessary corrections to reporting on the REAA Fund so that the costs of major maintenance will be included.
Sections 13: These sections include provisions to have the department encourage, evaluate, and require use of previous
school designs and building systems when that results in an operational or capital cost savings. Implementation of tools in
this area is proposed through the involvement of industry professionals at a cost of $15.0. These sections will also require
development of regulations at a cost of $4.0 in department charge backs. Total costs for Sections 13 in FY2019 = $19.0
Section 4: This section includes a requirement for the department to develop and periodically update regional model
school standards, costs, and design ratios that achieve efficient and costeffective school construction. This requirement
implements the recommendations found in the December 2017 BR&GR report to the legislature which identifies the
following costs:
Sections 14: Work of the Bond Reimbursement & Grant Review Committee (BRGR) will be required to meet statutory
duties in AS 14.11.014 associated with this bill 2 oneday meetings of the committee and department staff in FY2019 and
FY2020 (9 persons x $0.5 per day average travel and per diem x 2 meetings = $9.0 annually).
