13-16-9.3. Public hearing prior to advertising contract specifications if bidding required--Notice--Additional hearing when original use of fund changed. Any school district using the capital outlay fund for payment of construction of new facilities or construction of additions to facilities, the total of which will require advertising for bids under chapter 5-18, must have a public hearing at least ten days prior to the advertisement of any contract specifications. Such public hearing shall be advertised in the legal newspaper of the school district. Following such public hearing, and approval of the school board, the school district may use the capital outlay fund as provided in § 13-16-6; provided, however, that a school district may not change the originally advertised use of the fund without holding another public hearing.
