The bill modifies how revenue limit adjustments for declining enrollment are calculated and eliminates the prior year base revenue hold harmless adjustment for future school years.

  • Wis. Stat. § 121.91(4)(f)1.

    the decline in average enrollment → 10 percent of what it was

    It adjusts the calculation for revenue limit increases for districts facing declining enrollment, using a 10 percent cap on the decline for adjustment purposes.

  • Wis. Stat. § 121.91(8)

    the school district's initial revenue limit for the current school year, before making any adjustments under sub. (3) or (4), is less than the amount determined by multiplying the amount under sub. (2m) (i) 1. by the average of the number of pupils enrolled in the 3 preceding school years, the school district's initial revenue limit for the current school year, before making any adjustments under sub. (3) or (4), is the amount determined by multiplying the amount under sub. (2m) (i) 1. by the average of the number of pupils enrolled in the 3 preceding school years. Any additional revenue received by a school district as a result of this subsection shall not be included in the base for determining the school district's limit under sub. (2m) for the following school year. This subsection does not apply to a school district's revenue limit calculated for the 2011-12 and 2012-13, and 2019-20 school years or for any school year after the 2019-20 school year.

    It eliminates the prior year base revenue hold harmless adjustment, thus changing how initial revenue limits are set for future school years.
