HF 60 Iowa House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A bill for an act relating to budget adjustments by school districts affected by a natural disaster.

HF 60 would allow Iowa school districts impacted by federally or state-declared natural disasters to receive an additional year of budget adjustment funding. Specifically, if a disaster occurred in the base year or the year before, districts would get a second adjustment equal to the amount they received in their base year. This applies to districts already eligible for standard budget adjustments under existing law. The bill directly affects school districts in Iowa that experience qualifying natural disasters with official disaster declarations. (Note: The bill was withdrawn on March 14, 2025, and did not become law.)
