Sec. 10-292g. Percentage determination for interest subsidy grants. (a) The
percentage of interest subsidy grant money a local board of education may be eligible
to receive under the provisions of section 10-292i shall be determined as follows: (1)
Each town shall be ranked in descending order from one to one hundred sixty-nine
according to such town's adjusted equalized net grand list per capita, as defined in
section 10-261; (2) based upon such ranking, a percentage of not less than twenty nor
more than eighty shall be determined for each town on a continuous scale.
(b) The percentage of interest subsidy grant money a regional board of education
may be eligible to receive under the provisions of section 10-292i shall be determined
by its ranking. Such ranking shall be determined by (1) multiplying the total population,
as defined in section 10-261, of each town in the district by such town's ranking, as
determined in subsection (a) of this section, (2) adding together the figures determined
under subdivision (1) of this subsection, and (3) dividing the total computed under
subdivision (2) of this subsection by the total population of all towns in the district. The
ranking of each regional board of education shall be rounded to the next higher whole
number and each such board shall receive the same reimbursement percentage as would
a town with the same rank. In the case of an interest subsidy grant (A) for a secondary
regional school district, such reimbursement percentage shall be increased by five per
cent and (B) for a regional school district accommodating pupils in kindergarten to grade
twelve, inclusive, such reimbursement percentage shall be increased by ten per cent,
except that no such percentage shall exceed eighty-five per cent.
(c) The percentage of interest subsidy grant money a regional educational service
center may be eligible to receive shall be determined by its ranking. Such ranking shall
be determined by (1) multiplying the population of each member town in the regional
educational service center by such town's ranking, as determined in subsection (a) of
this section, (2) adding together the figures for each town determined under subdivision
(1) of this subsection and (3) dividing the total computed under subdivision (2) of this
subsection by the total population of all member towns in the regional educational service center. The ranking of each regional educational service center shall be rounded to
the next higher whole number and each such center shall receive the same reimbursement
percentage as would a town with the same rank.
