| CO | Signed into law 06/2002 | P-12 | Creates the "Charter School Facilities Financing Act" to increase charter school access to the school district capital funding and planning process. Requires each school district that is considering submitting a bond question at an upcoming election to invite each charter school it has chartered to participate in discussions regarding the possible submission of such a question at the earliest possible time. Encourages each school district to voluntarily include funding for the capital construction needs of charter schools in the district's bond questions. Authorizes a school district that has chartered one or more charter schools to seek voter approval for the imposition of a special mill levy of up to one mill for up to 10 years for the purpose of financing charter school capital construction. Creates a process that allows a charter school to submit a capital construction plan to its chartering district so that it can be included in a bond election or have the school district submit a special mill levy question on its behalf. Requires the contract entered into between the charter school and the district regarding the issuance of bond proceeds for the financing of charter school capital construction to specify that the ownership of any such capital construction shall revert automatically to the district if the charter school loses its charter, fails to pay for the capital construction, or becomes insolvent and that the charter school cannot further encumber any capital construction financed by bond revenues with any additional debt.

Modifies the definition of "pupil enrollment" to include a pupil who was enrolled during the 2001-02 school year in an on-line program and who is enrolled and participates in any such on-line program on October 1 within the applicable budget year or the school day nearest said date. Defines "district on-line funding" as the amount of minimum per pupil funding multiplied by a school district's on-line pupil enrollment. Excludes on-line pupils from the requirement that a school district set aside a specified amount per pupil for capital reserve and instructional supplies and materials. Requires school districts to report on-line pupil enrollment to the state board of education (state board). Allows charter schools to provide on-line programs. Provides funding for up to 135 students per year to enroll in on-line programs who were enrolled in a public school after October 1 of the preceding school year or who were enrolled in a private school or a home-school program in the preceding school year.

Instructs the department to allocate the funded on-line program positions to applying school districts and charter schools, and establishes criteria for the allocation.
Exempts on-line students from any limit on the number of students that may enroll in a charter school, and prohibits a school district from restricting the number of on-line students that may enroll in a charter school. Exempts on-line students from the determination of whether a majority of the charter school's students reside within the chartering school district or a contiguous school district. Requires a charter school to receive 100% of the district's per pupil on-line funding for on-line students enrolled in the charter school. Exempts charter schools from the requirement to set aside a per pupil amount for capital reserve with regard to on-line students and from paying the per pupil amount for special education services for such students.
