California Proposition 39

Paper Summary:

This paper looks at how California's Proposition 39 would allow the funding procedure of school facilities in California to be altered and make both constitutional and statuary changes in the current governing laws. More specifically, the paper explains that Proposition 39 would allow 55 percent of the voters to approve school bonds, a reduction from the current two-thirds requirement, and that this change would ultimately increase the burden of California taxpayers.

From the Paper:

"This disparity forces districts to rely on the state for their school facility needs. If enacted like other States, California would be allowed to have the control of the local school body and provide adequate facilities and safeguards against the school administration.
Proposition 1A may provide state funds for school facilities but the local districts must raise the required matching funds. The law at the moment hinders all innovation and the schools lag behind others in the country."
