Section 1812 - Building Cost Standards(a) For the purposes of establishing current building cost standards for new construction in accordance with Section 16024 of the Education Code, a study and report thereon shall be made to the Board by the Director of General Services.(b) Pursuant to the report submitted under Subsection (a) of this regulation, the Board shall establish allowable school building cost standards, which cost standards shall be effective until next revised.(c) After the initial adoption of allowable building cost standards by the Board, a continuing study of such costs shall be conducted by the Director of General Services. Whenever a finding is made that a one percent or more increase or decrease exists, he shall recommend appropriate revision to the allowable building cost standards.(d) No application or bid shall be approved and no apportionment shall be made for any construction which exceeds the allowable costs established as provided herein. In the event, however, that it is conclusively shown from any studies by the Director of General Services that actual building costs in an area or portion of an area differ substantially from the allowable costs established for the area, the Board may at any time revise the allowable building cost standards for the area or create additional areas and establish appropriate allowable cost standards for such additional areas.(e) The Director of General Services shall determine whether the cost of building construction included in any bid is within the allowable building cost. The district shall provide all information the Director of General Services may require in order to properly segregate building costs from other construction costs.Cal. Code Regs. Tit. 2, § 1812
