Prevents reduction in State school aid for districts in certain counties with lower property valuations.

This bill ensures that school districts in Atlantic, Cape May, Monmouth, and Ocean Counties do not face a reduction in State school aid if their equalized property valuations are lower than in 2012-2013. The intent is to support districts most affected by Superstorm Sandy, whose property values have not yet recovered. The bill applies to school districts in fifth and sixth-class counties.
