027-5 Wyo. Code R. § 5-4

Current through April 27, 2019
Section 5-4 - Disbursement of Funds

(a) For any emergency for which major building and facility repair and replacement payments are not sufficient to provide temporary measures and other responses, or if such payments would severely compromise implementation of the district's facility plan, as determined by the Commission, the Commission shall determine if the temporary measures and other responses require a capital outlay. The Commission shall only request capital outlay for an emergency after consideration of all other remedies. In providing temporary measures and other responses for an emergency, the Commission shall ensure the adoption of the most cost effective method of remediation that is in the best financial and educational interests of the state. The Commission shall implement this subsection in carrying out temporary measures and other responses, giving proper consideration to the prevention of unnecessary delays.

(b) Expenditures from the school capital construction account shall be for necessary temporary measures and other responses and related costs. Any commitment by the Commission may only be made to the extent that funds have been appropriated by the Legislature for the purpose of addressing facility emergency measures or are otherwise available in the school capital construction account.

(c) The Commission recognizes that the remediation of emergencies may require immediate action. Under certain circumstances, it may be impractical for the Commission to convene in a timely manner. Upon request for emergency funding from a district, the Director may determine if the request requires immediate action, or if the request may require action by the Commission.

  • (i) If the Director determines the request requires immediate action, the Director shall consult with the Chair as soon as practicable concerning the request for emergency funding. Any commitment by the Director may only be made to the extent that funds have been appropriated by the Legislature for the purpose of addressing facility emergency temporary measures or are otherwise available in the school capital construction account. The Director may not commit more than $100,000.00 for emergency measures, subject to availability of funds in the account.
  • (ii) The Director shall inform the Commission of any action taken with regard to the request as soon as possible and shall provide a full report of the emergency and any funding commitment at the following Commission meeting.

(d) Disbursements shall not be made for any unauthorized expenses.
