Vermont H0750 amends the definition of "education spending" to exclude capital construction costs, impacting calculations for fundraising, federal funds, and other state funds.

The bill allows school districts that begin construction before July 1, 2026, to be deemed to have good cause for commencing construction without prior final approval.
