Section 392-343-510 - State funding assistance - New construction for growth priority factorsThe three factors that are related to new construction for growth are as follows:
(1) Projected percent unhoused - Fifty-five possible points. The district percent unhoused five years in the future is based on the projection of enrollment per WAC 392-343-045 for two grade categories, including preschool special education, compared to the formula capacity of existing space based on WAC 392-343-035 as computed per WAC 392-343-050. If the projected district percent unhoused for the applicable grade category is equal to or greater than forty percent, full points are awarded. If the projected district percent unhoused is less than five percent but greater than zero percent, then a minimum of fifteen points are awarded. If the projected percent unhoused is between five percent and forty percent, then the forty remaining points (55-15) are proportionately awarded.
(2) Mid-range projection - Five possible points. This factor is to recognize the degree of immediacy of a district's capacity problem. The district's point score in subsection (1) of this section is first multiplied by .091 to reflect the relationship between the fifty-five possible points in subsection (1) of this section and the five points in this subsection. This produces the maximum points a project can be awarded in this factor. The actual points are determined by the relationship between the district's unhoused percentage three years in the future divided by the unhoused percentage five years in the future. For example, if a district received 43.57 points in subsection (1) of this section due to a projected thirty percent unhoused condition and its three-year projection is that it will be twenty-four percent unhoused, it will receive 3.17 points (i.e., ((42.57 x .091) x (24 percent/30 percent)) = 3.17).(3) Number of years unhoused - Five possible points. This factor is to recognize the duration of an unhoused problem. One point is awarded for each year the district has had an unhoused condition in the applicable grade category during the past five years, up to the five points maximum. The scores shall be determined at the time of project approval per WAC 392-341-045. These scores shall be carried for a period of twenty-four months, at which time new scores shall be determined utilizing the then most current enrollment projections and facts. A district may request a redetermination of scores at any time.
