Relating to a prohibition on the guarantee of public school bonds.
HB 114 prohibits school districts and charter districts from having their bonds guaranteed or underwritten using money from the permanent school fund. It directly affects public school districts and charter districts by banning this specific financial mechanism for new bonds approved after September 1, 2025. Existing bonds approved before that date remain guaranteed until maturity under a grandfather clause. The bill amends the Education Code to remove language allowing such guarantees and makes technical updates to related charter school funding provisions.
