Agenda Item
ii. Approval of the Fiscal Year 2024 Capital Outlay Application
Summary: Presented by: Mr. Richard Boyd, Interim Chief Operating Officer, Division of Operations
Request: It is requested that the Board of Education approve the Fiscal Year 2024 Capital Outlay Application to the Georgia Department of Education (Ga DOE), totaling $16,861,594.
Why: This will allow for the DeKalb County School District to collect reimbursement funds for these capital improvement projects in the amount of $16,861,594 as allowable under the State Capital Outlay program.
Details: The State of Georgia provides limited funding assistance for capital outlay projects in school districts as determined by state formula. These entitlement funds are awarded as projects are completed. This process is known as "reimbursable" funding, meaning the project (or phases of that project) must be completed first, and then the District applies for the allotted reimbursement.
Each year, districts must submit a Capital Outlay Application, listing the projects for which they will seek reimbursement. The District’s FY 2024 Capital Outlay Project Application requests reimbursement funds in the amount of $16,861,594 from the Georgia Department of Education to be appropriated by the 2023 Georgia General Assembly.
Projects applying for reimbursement funds in the FY 2023 Capital Outlay Project Application include modernization of Cross Keys HS, Modernization of Druid Hills HS, and cooler/freezer replacement at 25 District schools.
Financial impact: The total State Capital Outlay Reimbursement for these projects in the amount of $16,861,594 will be allocated to the capital program which funded the capital outlay: the E-SPLOST V program, the E-SPLOST VI program, or the Operations capital improvement portion of the general fund.
Contact: Mr. Richard Boyd, Interim Chief Operating Officer, Division of Operations, 678.676.1483
Mr. Hans Williams, Director, Planning & E-SPLOST Programming, Division of Operations, 678.676.1588
Effective: Upon board approval
Status: Approved by General Counsel.
