5. (a) Before September 15 of the first year
of the state budget biennium, the department shall provide the parties
with an estimate of the general fund (before January 1, 2019) or
education fund (after December 31, 2018) revenue available for
bargaining in the school corporation from the school funding formula.
(b) Within thirty (30) days after the date of the fall count of ADM
of the school year in the first year of the state budget biennium, the
department shall provide the parties with a certification of estimated
general fund (before January 1, 2019) or education fund (after
December 31, 2018) revenue available for bargaining from the school
funding formula. If the parties do not receive a certified estimate from
the department within thirty (30) days after the fall count of ADM, the
parties may use the school corporation's estimate of the general fund
(before January 1, 2019) or education fund (after December 31, 2018)
revenue available based on the school corporation's fall count of ADM
for purposes of collective bargaining. However, if the parties
subsequently receive the certification of estimated general fund (before

available for bargaining before an impasse is declared, the parties shall
use the certified general fund (before January 1, 2019) or education
fund (after December 31, 2018) revenue from the school funding
formula for purposes of collective bargaining.
(c) A school employer shall exclude contract costs for curricular
materials as defined in IC 20-18-2-2.7 from the revenue available for
bargaining in the school corporation from the school funding formula
determined under subsections (a) and (b).
(d) A school employer that passes a resolution under section 3(c) of
this chapter to consider a portion or percentage of money transferred
from the school employer's operations fund to the education fund as
education fund revenue for purposes of determining whether an
agreement places a school corporation in a position of deficit financing
must submit a copy of the resolution to the department of local
government finance on or before November 1. The resolution shall
include:
(1) all transfers between the operations fund and the education
fund; and
(2) a statement regarding whether or not the transfer is for the
purpose of funding teacher contracts.
(e) The certifications or estimate described in subsection (b) must
be the basis for determinations throughout impasse proceedings under
