Change provisions relating to school transportation expenses for children with disabilities
LB 507 amends Nebraska law to clarify how school districts reimburse parents or guardians for transporting children with disabilities. It specifies that payments must follow the state mileage rate (from section 81-1176) for actual miles traveled between home and school, and limits reimbursement for multiple children in one vehicle to the cost for a single child. The bill directly affects school districts (which must provide these payments) and parents/guardians (who receive reimbursement). It repeals the original section 79-1129 to replace vague language with clear, actionable rules.
