School Districts Required to Develop Local Control and Accountability Plan

On July 1, 2013, the Governor approved Assembly Bill (“AB”) 97, which among other issues, created a new formula, the Local Control Funding Formula (“LCFF”), for the allocation of funds to school districts and county offices of education. AB 97 also added Education Code section 52060, which requires that school districts develop a Local Control and Accountability Plan (“LCAP”) by July 1, 2014.
