Text

(A) Except as otherwise provided in divisions (B), (D), and (E) of this section, the portion of the basic project cost supplied by the school district shall be the required percentage of the basic project costs.

(B) For a district that opts to divide its entire classroom facilities needs into segments to be completed separately as authorized by section3318.034of the Revised Code, the portion of the basic project cost supplied by the school district for the first segment shall be calculated using the required percentage of the basic project costs as of the date the controlling board approved the project. Any future segment's portion of the basic project cost shall use the same respective share as the first segment.

(C) The amount of the district's share determined under this section shall be calculated only as of the date the controlling board approved the project, and that amount applies throughout the sixteen-month period permitted under section3318.05of the Revised Code for the district's electors to approve the propositions described in that section. If the amount reserved and encumbered for a project is released because the electors do not approve those propositions within that period, and the school district later receives the controlling board's approval for the project, subject to a new project scope and estimated costs under section3318.054of the Revised Code, the district's portion shall be recalculated in accordance with this section as of the date of the controlling board's subsequent approval.

(D) At no time shall a school district's portion of the basic project cost be greater than ninety-five per cent of the total basic project cost.

(E) If the controlling board approves a project under sections3318.01to3318.20of the Revised Code for a school district that previously received assistance under those sections or section3318.37of the Revised Code within the twenty-year period prior to the date on which the controlling board approves the new project, the district's portion of the basic project cost for the new project shall be the lesser of the following:

(1) The portion calculated under division (A) of this section;

(2) The greater of the following:

(a) The required percentage of the basic project costs for the new project;
