NOTICE OF REVIEW AND STATEMENT OF CONTINUATION

Concise explanation of the particular statutory provisions under which the rule is enacted and how these provisions authorize or require the rule:

Subsection 53A-1-401(3) allows the Utah State Board of Education to adopt rules in accordance with its responsibilities. Section 53A-17a-139 allows the Board to increase Minimum School Program funds for a school district in order to avoid penalizing it for an excessive loss in student enrollment due to factors beyond its control.

Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:

No written comments have been received.

Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:

This rule continues to be necessary because it provides procedures to compensate a school district financially for an excessive loss in student enrollment due to factors beyond the schools district's control. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
