§302A-1505 Prioritization of repair and maintenance. (a) Each school shall inform the department of education on an annual basis of school repair and maintenance needs. Before any repair and maintenance projects for the upcoming fiscal year are implemented, each individual school administration shall prioritize and approve its repair and maintenance needs, and approve the scope of the implementation plan for the individual projects. After schools have prioritized their repair and maintenance projects, a statewide list shall be prepared, reviewed, and approved by the department of education; provided that the department may make adjustments among schools and complex areas. Each listing shall be posted electronically on the Internet.
(b) Prior to informing the department about the school's repair and maintenance needs, the school's principal shall consider the recommendations made by the school community council or the local school board, if the school is a charter school.
(c) In prioritizing a school's repair and maintenance needs, the department and the school's principal shall consider the availability of donated and discounted repair and maintenance services and materials that will be provided by community groups, volunteers, and businesses.
