393.103 Adoption of policy concerning renovation or reconstruction of older buildings. A school district that has more than 150,000 pupils enrolled shall develop and adopt a policy concerning the renovation or reconstruction of older buildings for schools or related facilities. As part of the policy, consideration must be given to the relative advantages and disadvantages of the renovation or reconstruction of older buildings for schools or related facilities as compared to the design, construction or purchase of new buildings for schools or related facilities, including, without limitation, an analysis of the costs to renovate or reconstruct existing buildings and facilities to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, 42 U.S.C. §§ 12101 et seq., in comparison with the costs to construct or purchase new buildings and facilities. The policy must include, without limitation, guidelines for use by the board of trustees in determining:
1. Whether older buildings should be renovated or reconstructed or whether new buildings to replace those older buildings should be constructed or purchased, including, without limitation, a determination of the costs to renovate or reconstruct existing buildings and facilities to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, 42 U.S.C. §§ 12101 et seq., in comparison with the costs to construct or purchase new buildings and facilities.
2. The manner in which the board of trustees will expend or disburse money that the board did not otherwise anticipate would be available to finance the renovation or reconstruction of older buildings and the construction or purchase of new buildings, if such money, in fact, becomes available.
