What’s in it
AI summary Area education agency boards currently need permission from the state board of education to lease or buy buildings if the annual cost is $25,000 or more. This change would allow these boards to approve their own property deals as long as the yearly cost stays under $70,000. Only deals that cost $70,000 or more would still need approval from the state board.1
