Sub. H.B. 583 (2022) — corrective and technical changes to the Fair School Funding Plan
The third of the three acts that make up the Fair School Funding Plan as it actually operates, and the one nobody cites.
legislation/hb-583-2022 · 4 nodes point here · 2 corrections
LSC’s own account of where the current system comes from names exactly three documents: the final analysis for H.B. 110, “which enacted the system”; the final analysis for H.B. 583 of the 134th General Assembly, “which made a number of corrective and technical changes to it”; and the final analysis for H.B. 33, “which extended the system to the FY2025-FY2026 biennium.” verified the enacted H.B. 96 analysis
A technical corrections act is not a minor one here. Its corrections are already inside every published FY2022 figure, whether or not the act is named beside them. The FY2022 payment report is H.B. 110 as corrected by this act, not H.B. 110 as passed. Anyone reconciling a FY2022 per-district amount against the text of H.B. 110 alone is reconciling against a formula that was never run.
That is the same failure the corpus recorded for H.B. 94, from the other direction: there, a citation resolves to a section that has since been repurposed; here, an act that everybody cites was amended by one that almost nobody does.
What it changed. The act reprints 13 sections of R.C. 3317 — 3317.011, .0110, .014, .016, .017, .019, .02, .0212, .0215, .024, .051, .064 and .25 — and reopens 4 uncodified sections of H.B. 110: 265.150 Pupil Transportation, 265.210 Foundation Funding - All Students, 265.225 and 265.335. It also amends S.B. 1 of the 134th and H.B. 123 of the 133rd. verified the enrolled act
Its own appropriation is a single federal line: $2,415,201 in FY2022 and nothing in FY2023, for the tutoring program it created, out of American Rescue Plan emergency funds. There is no general revenue line in it at all — which is why an act that moved the formula leaves no trace in an appropriation series. verified
What this repository computed Contents
Not what Ohio publishes. Figures derived here from committed fixtures, each one citing the test that reproduces it.
The section that assembles foundation funding is the one it did not touch Contents
R.C. 3317.022 is absent from the amending title and reprinted nowhere in the act, while the
sections around it are reopened wholesale. 10 of the act’s own sections cite it, and a
heading is what none of them is. So the correction reworked the inputs to core foundation funding
and left the assembly alone — which is a claim about what LSC’s word “technical” covers, and it
covers more than the word suggests. verified crates/project’s reader for the enrolled act,
exercised by tests/the_act_that_corrected_the_plan.rs
The Fair School Funding Plan’s first input-year freeze is here, in its first biennium Contents
Section 13 holds the statewide average cost per rider and cost per mile — the two inputs to transportation funding under R.C. 3317.0212, and to payment in lieu of transportation under 3327.02 — at FY2020 data for both FY2022 and FY2023. verified
The corpus asks the refresh-versus-freeze question of base cost across biennia, in FSFP Cost Input Refresh vs. Freeze. It starts earlier and smaller than that: the plan was enacted in July 2021 and by June 2022 two of its inputs were already pinned to a year before it existed. inference
And it made prorated scholarships whole, retroactively Contents
Section 15 provides that a student whose EdChoice expansion award had been cut under division (E) of R.C. 3310.032 receives the full amount from the act’s effective date. An act characterized as technical moved money in the channel the districts are now litigating over. verified
A caveat that belongs on any figure taken from this fixture Contents
An enrolled act prints amendments as strike-and-insert, and the strike is typographic — it does
not survive text extraction. Section 265.210 reads “the section of this act H.B. 110 of the
134th General Assembly entitled”, where this act is struck and the rest replaces it. Read as
a run of words it is not what was enacted. ohio-session-laws records this hazard as the reason
H.B. 650 of the 122nd is deliberately unheld; it is present here too, and pinned by a test
rather than left to be met by surprise. verified

| Designation | Sub. H.B. 583 |
|---|---|
| General Assembly | 134th General Assembly |
| Signed | 2022-06-24 |
| Effective | 2022-09-23 |
| When each part took effect | Two dates, though this is not a budget act: its appropriations took effect on signing, 24 June 2022, and the rest on 23 September 2022, which effective above carries. verified the legislature's version index |
| What it did | Made corrective and technical changes to the Fair School Funding Plan enacted by Am. Sub. H.B. 110, incorporated into the FY2022 calculations. Reprinted 13 sections of R.C. 3317 and reopened 4 uncodified sections of H.B. 110, leaving R.C. 3317.022 untouched. Froze the two statewide transportation cost inputs at FY2020 data for the biennium, ended the proration of EdChoice expansion scholarships, and appropriated one federal line of $2.4m for a new tutoring program. verified the enrolled act |
| Vetoes | Not recorded here, and the enrolled act cannot record it: what the version index serves is the text as presented to the Governor, and a line-item veto is exercised after that. The act does make an appropriation, so it was vetoable. Settling it needs this act's own LSC final analysis, which is a second document and not the one now held. open |
| Effect on accountability | Each of its accountability provisions is about community schools, lasts one school year, and holds a rating's consequence off. Section 17 let a community school that its 2021-22 report card brought under R.C. 3314.034(A) contract with a new sponsor for 2022-23 without that section's conditions; Section 18 gave 2021-22 sponsor ratings no effect on a sponsor's sanctions, penalties or revocation; and division (E) of H.B. 110's section 265.335 kept a school first designated a Community School of Quality for 2019-20, with its up to $1,750 per economically disadvantaged pupil, designated through 2022-23. verified the enrolled act That (E) is this act's addition rests on the enrolled H.B. 110, which does not carry it. inference Section 17 is close to the sponsor provision H.B. 110 passed and the Governor vetoed, widened beyond schools serving mostly pupils with disabilities. inference The act amends no section of R.C. Chapter 3302 and not R.C. 3310.03. verified |

What this node used to say Contents
The corpus is not rewritten to have always been right. Each entry is a claim this node carried, what replaced it, and the thing that settled it.
Correction 1 of 2
It said
“What it changed is not held … This one is a separate PDF that no connector fetches, so the corpus can say that corrections were made, that they are operative, and that they are technical on LSC’s characterization, and cannot say which provisions moved.”
It says
The act is held. It came through ohio-session-laws — the same legislature version API that
already served H.B. 215, H.B. 770 and H.B. 282 — at version code 08_EN, and is committed
at crates/project/fixtures/hb583-corrections.txt. What the corpus was reaching for was
LSC’s analysis of the act; what answers the question is the act.
Settled by
A corpus review crossing every blocker claim against the connector registry, then probing
the version index directly. Six version codes below 08_EN return 404 and that one returns
ninety-four pages.
What else it touched
It was the sole reason FY2022-23 carried an [open]
reading “It has no node here” — a sentence written about a node that exists — and the reason
this node had no findings at all. It also turned out to answer a question filed on a
different node: the formula transition supplement’s uncodified home is a titled section of
H.B. 110, which this act quotes by name.
Correction 2 of 2
It said
R.C. 3317.022 “appears ten times as a cross-reference from the sections that were amended”.
It says
10 of the act’s own sections cite it. Ten is not a count of occurrences: the phrase
section 3317.022 of the Revised Code is printed 13 times and the number appears 23 times
in all.
Settled by
Binding the figure to crates/figures, which needed a public reader for the act and got one
at crates/project::act. The test standing behind the claim had asserted
matches(...).count() > 5 — a lower bound under a figure the corpus published exactly, which
is the fourth of #158’s conventions arriving in a fifth place.
What else it touched
The number was right and the noun was wrong, so nothing downstream moves. Worth recording because the act prints four of those 23 occurrences inside a flattened strike-and-insert, where 3317.022 is the struck half twice and the inserted half twice — and the set of citing sections is the same ten either way. See this node’s own caveat on that hazard. verified
