School aid: other; use of funding for consolidation of administrative functions; allow. Amends sec. 11x of 1979 PA 94 (MCL 388.1611x).

This bill creates a dedicated fund within the state school aid system to support school districts in consolidating administrative and operational functions. It allows districts to apply for grants of up to $250,000 to conduct feasibility studies on merging services such as finance, human resources, information technology, transportation, and facility management. The legislation also establishes rules for how the fund is managed, including requirements that study results be shared publicly and that infrastructure funding be withheld until facility condition assessments are completed.
