EDUCATION CODESECTION 84850
84850. (a) The Board of Governors of the California Community Colleges shall adopt rules and regulations for the administration and funding of educational programs and support services to be provided to disabled students by community college districts pursuant to Chapter 14.2 (commencing with Section 67310) of Part 40. (b) As used in this section, "disabled students" are persons with exceptional needs enrolled at a community college who, because of a verified disability, cannot fully benefit from classes, activities, and services regularly provided by the college without specific additional specialized services or educational programs. (c) The regulations adopted by the board of governors shall provide for the apportionment of funds to each community college district to offset the direct excess cost of providing specialized support services or instruction, or both, to disabled students enrolled in state-supported educational programs or courses. Direct excess costs are those actual fixed, variable, and one-time costs, as defined in Section 67312, which exceed the combined total of the following: (1) The average cost to the district of providing services to nondisabled students times the number of students served by disabled student programs and services. (2) The indirect cost to the district of providing facilities and support for the administration of disabled student programs and services. (3) The revenue derived from average daily attendance in special classes. (4) Any other funds for serving disabled students which the district receives from federal, state, or local sources. (d) As a condition of receiving funds pursuant to this section, each community college district shall certify that reasonable efforts have been made to utilize all funds from federal, state, or local sources which are available for serving disabled students. Districts shall also provide the programmatic and fiscal information concerning programs and services for disabled students that the regulations of the board of governors require. (e) The board of governors may authorize the chancellor, consistent with the requirements the board may impose, to designate up to 3 percent of the funds allocated pursuant to this section for program development and program accountability.
