Summary

The bill requires a school district’s governing board to call a November override election whenever a proposed budget goes over the state‑set limit. It also sets a uniform process for the county school superintendent to create and distribute an informational pamphlet and sample ballot, and for the board to provide an alternate budget if voters reject the increase. The goal is to give taxpayers clear, comparable information and a direct vote on large budget hikes.
