allowing a reimbursement anticipation note to be used as collateral in certain circumstances.

HB 1495 allows New Hampshire school districts to borrow against expected state reimbursements (like education funds) and count those borrowed funds as revenue when setting property tax rates. The bill requires that borrowed funds be used only for the same purpose as the anticipated reimbursement. School districts must notify the state revenue department in writing about the amount to be counted as revenue, and this borrowing is exempt from standard debt limit restrictions under RSA 33. The bill directly affects school districts receiving state education reimbursements by changing how they can manage and report anticipated funds.
