2013 House Bill 4871

Let ISDs take over fiscally failed school districts

Introduced in the House

June 20, 2013

Introduced by Rep. Stacy Erwin Oakes (D-95)

To give intermediate school districts the power take over fiscally failed school districts. The bill was introduced as an alternative to House 4813, now Public Act 96 of 2013, which gave the state this authority, and was itself introduced in response to the financial collapse of the Buena Vista and Inkster school districts shortly before the end of the 2012-2013 school year.

Referred to the Committee on Education
