§ 42.257. EFFECT OF APPRAISAL APPEAL.

(b) If the district would have received a greater amount from the foundation school fund for the applicable school year using the adjusted value, the commissioner shall add the difference to subsequent distributions to the district from the foundation school fund. An adjustment does not affect the local fund assignment of any other district. Added by Acts 1995, 74th Leg., ch. 260, § 1, eff. May 30, 1995.
