Revisions to these rules are required by H.B. 13-1219, which revised sections 22-30.5-101, 503, and 507 C.R.S., to allow a charter school or consortium of charter schools to be treated as a local education agency for the purposes of applying for and determining eligibility for a non-formulaic, competitive grant or program and to allow the charter school institute to act as the fiscal manager for the grant or program. These rules are applicable to state administered non-formulaic, competitive grants or programs of state or federal funds.
The statutory basis for these rules is found in section 22-2-107(1) (c), C.R.S., outlining state board duties and in section 22-30.5-503, C.R.S., which requires the state board of education to promulgate rules to establish processes, guidelines, and eligibility for a single school or consortium of schools to apply for non-formulaic, competitive grants and programs.
