What’s in it
This bill relates to high school event admission fees for people years of age or younger. The bill defines “event” as an extracurricular interscholastic contest or competition authorized by the Iowa high school athletic association, Iowa girls high school athletic union, Iowa high school music association, or Iowa high school speech association, not including post-regular season and all-state contests or competitions. The bill also defines “department” as the department of management. The bill prohibits a school district from charging a fee for the admittance of a person years of age or younger to an event.
Read the full explanation
The bill requires the state board of education to adopt rules that calculate the amount of revenue that a school district would have received if the school district charged a fee for the admittance of persons years of age or younger to events. The bill makes an appropriation beginning July 1, 2022, and each year thereafter to the department of management from the sports wagering receipts fund in an amount equal to the total amount the state board of education has determined all school districts would have received if school districts charged people years of age or younger admission fees to events. The bill requires the department of management to distribute all moneys appropriated to the department of management from the sports wagering receipts fund relating to admission fees to each school district in an amount equal to the amount the state board of education has determined the school district would have received if it charged people years of age or younger admission fees to events. Distributions shall be made at the same time and in the same manner as foundation aid and may be included in the monthly payment of state aid. The bill allows the state board of education to adopt emergency rules to implement the bill. The bill takes effect upon enactment. The bill applies to school district events occurring on or after July 1, 2022.
