Relating to: supplemental state aid for consolidated school districts. (FE)

SB 668 creates a new state aid program for school districts formed by consolidation after July 1, 2026. It provides supplemental aid to districts that would otherwise face higher property tax rates after merging, calculated by comparing pre-consolidation tax rates of the original districts to the merged district's projected rate. Eligible districts receive full aid in the first year after consolidation, then 80% the next year, 60% the following year, and 40% the year after that. The state funds this aid from annual appropriations, with payments prorated if funding falls short.
